In a spiritually stirring Easter sermon broadcast to Christian faithfuls across continents, Bishop (Dr.) Festus Olufemi Otusanya Omomajemu, Presiding Bishop of The True Covenant Church of God in Lagos, Nigeria, delivered a profound message titled “The Resurrection and the Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ.”
The message on the 20th of April 2025, grounded in scriptural authority and doctrinal clarity, offered a deep reflection on two foundational pillars of the Christian faith, urging believers to live in alignment with the eternal truths of Christ’s triumph and His promise to return.
Addressing a global audience from the church’s headquarters in Lagos, Bishop Omomajemu began by teaching on the significance of the Resurrection.
He described it as a divine act of victory that not only proved Jesus’ divinity but also established the path of salvation for all humanity. The Resurrection, he noted, was the ultimate defeat of sin and death, restoring the broken relationship between God and man.
He encouraged believers to walk in the power of that Resurrection by living transformed lives, filled with gratitude, holiness, and obedience to God’s Word.
Expounding further, the Bishop highlighted how the Resurrection fulfilled numerous Old Testament prophecies, validating the Messiahship of Jesus Christ and reinforcing the reliability of the Scriptures.
He stated that every believer, through faith in the risen Christ, becomes a partaker in new life—marked by spiritual rebirth, renewed purpose, and hope that transcends temporal struggles.
Transitioning into the second part of the message, Bishop Omomajemu focused on the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, describing it as the blessed hope of the Church.
He emphasized that just as the Resurrection was a fulfilled promise, the return of Christ is a future certainty that should shape the lives of every believer.
The Second Coming, he said, is not a subject for fear but for joyful anticipation, as it will mark the fulfillment of God’s plan for justice, restoration, and eternal communion with His people.
The Bishop warned against spiritual complacency and urged Christians to remain vigilant, prayerful, and mission-minded.
He called on the global Church to return to biblical foundations, reject lukewarmness, and prioritize soul-winning, discipleship, and godly living.
He stressed the need for the Church to become a beacon of light and hope in a world plagued by moral decay and uncertainty, reminding believers that they are Christ’s ambassadors awaiting the return of their King.
Referencing Acts 1:11, Bishop Omomajemu reminded his listeners that just as Jesus ascended into heaven before the eyes of the apostles, He will also return in like manner.
He declared that every believer must be spiritually prepared, for the hour of His return is unknown.
The Bishop concluded his sermon with a heartfelt prayer for revival, spiritual awakening, and a renewed sense of mission in the Body of Christ.
The Easter message, shared through the church’s global media platforms and followed by thousands online and in person, served not only as a commemoration of the Resurrection but as a prophetic reminder of Christ’s return.
Bishop Otusanya Omomajemu’s words stirred hearts, strengthened faith, and refocused attention on eternal priorities in a season often marked by worldly distractions.
As Easter celebrations continue, the Bishop’s message remains a clarion call to believers everywhere: to live with the hope of the Resurrection and the urgency of the Second Coming, reflecting the love and light of Jesus Christ until the day He returns.
