"He told them, "This is what is written: The Messiah will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day, and repentance for the forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem." Luke 24:46-47

I think this verse applies to easter sunday because it was the third day when Jesus rose from the dead. I enjoy this verse because I think of it as a new beginning due to having Jesus leaving us the ability of repentance. I like to look at it almost as if it's our turn to save ourselves along with Jesus who died for it. So it's almost as if we're starting all over again since our sins were washed away!
