    Can Jesus raise the dead? The big question in any religion concerns death. Death is a great mystery. And life is a great mystery, but life is practically meaningless if there is no resurrection of the dead.

He centers on individuals and He is no longer reaching out to the nation of Israel. The raising of Lazarus from the dead occurred ...read more

    True worship is honoring God first with gratitude and trust, offering Him our best in response to His blessings, not our achievements or possessions.
