Dave spoke at our Easter Sunday baptism service.
Dave used the illustration of the stones to represent each of us in our sinful nature and the punishment of death that we deserve.
Dave then asked Neal to pull the footballs under the surface of the water. They all exploded out of the water representing how Jesus could not be held down by death as He is perfect in righteousness.
He lived the life we should live but died the death we deserve.
Romans 3 v 22-26 in the NLT.
