"TO JESUS ON HIS BIRTHDAY"
The American poet Edna St. Vincent Millay once wrote a biting, ironic poem called "To Jesus on His Birthday." Surely none of us can deny guilt in some of the areas it includes in its brief scope:

Dr. J. Wilbur Chapman, famous evangelist, said that the New Testament records tell of forty people, each suffering from the same disease, who were healed by Jesus.
Of this number, thirty-four were either brought to Jesus by friends, or He was taken to them. In only six cases

I SAW JESUS. ~~Author Unknown~~
I saw Jesus last week.
He was wearing blue jeans and an old shirt.

Oswald Chambers once said,
“We trample the blood of the Son of God if we think we are forgiven because we are sorry for our sins. The only explanation for the forgiveness of God... is the death of Jesus Christ... There is absolute reinstatement into God by the death of Jesus Christ and by no

JESUS DID RISE
Pollster George Gallup said even 84 percent of people who never go to church believe Jesus rose from the dead. It is historical fact; it wasn’t done in secret. The whole city of Jerusalem and the whole Roman Empire knew about it. It was news. If CNN had been there, they would have

1. Give the keys to Jesus.
Letting anyone drive our vehicle is tough. I admit that at times I’m not the best passenger, especially when it’s my vehicle. Just ask my wife.
