Till the time had come to pass

to all who believe.
The Angels around Him
looked down at His bed,

A quote from Cliffe Knechtle…
“Although I do not know why God allowed evil, I do know that he wants to destroy it. That is why there is hell.
Although I do not know why God allowed pain, I do know he wants to wipe every tear from our eyes and give us joy for eternity in his presence. That is why

Sarah.
An elderly lady, a resident in the county nursing home, attended my weekly Bible class. I asked how they thought they would react if present when Jesus raised this widow’s son.
