At the end of His life, Jesus was able to confidently declare His trust in the Sovereign Father. This reminds me of a poem called “Invictus” written by a humanist named William Ernest Henley:
Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my

Twas The Night Before Jesus Came

Their Bibles were lain on the shelf without care
In hopes that Jesus would not come there.
The children were dressing to crawl into bed,
Not once ever

Jesus is the Truth that sets us free, and that freedom comes through knowing Him personally in a one-on-one relationship. There is a tremendous difference in knowing about a person and knowing that person. I know about President Bush and Prince Charles, but I do not have a personal relationship

Actually, it’s a good thing that Jesus is not with us now in a human body and therefore limited to one geographic location. If He was, you would have as much chance of being with Him in your lifetime as you would a holiday with the Queen! You might get a five minute slot in His diary in 2030, but

In the book of Revelation, Jesus himself speaks to them. He commends them for many things. But then he adds this sobering rebuke. “Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken your first love. ” (Rev. 2:4) WHO is your FIRST LOVE? Over the years, have the pursuits, the distractions, the

They didn’t want justice, they wanted death! They wanted blood! They wanted the blood of Jesus and they got it!
