    God works behind the scenes. Caiaphas the high priest’s plan to eliminate Christ became part of God’s design to redeem the world. God continues to work through us too as the body of Christ to bring about his ultimate purpose.

    Let Christ Bring A Resolution Jn. 11:47-53 There’s always a resolution for your problems. Things can and do come together after all.

    Religion hung Jesus on a cross. It is time to stop and ask the question, "Is the Holy Spirit in our churches or is religion our God?"
