                    Jim always thought he was a pretty good guy.  Oh ... he made some mistakes once in a while ... but overall he thought he was OK.  He knew that he wasn’t a BAD person.  
Oh, he fudged on his income tax a little bit .. not really cheated he said .. just fudged a little bit.  He would stay out on

                    The mantle of righteousness that comes with forgiveness is made of vertical and horizontal threads.  The vertical threads are the relationship between us and the Lord, representing our restored relationship.  Horizontal threads are the relationships we have with others, established by our forgiving

                    The Chinese character for "righteousness" is most interesting. It is composed of two separate characters one standing for a lamb, the other for me. When "lamb" is placed directly above "me," a new character "righteousness" is formed. This is a helpful picture of the grace of God. Between me, the

He jumped bail in England and was removed on coming back home. There was also the case of one boy who
