    In the passage, the Blood of Jesus was shed by a Roman spear... but neither John nor any other part of Scripture makes note of the importance of Christ’s blood in this story. Is there a message in the blood that flowed from Jesus side?

    OPEN: About a year ago I received this e-mail: In 2003, Mel Gibson released a film called The Passion which dramatically and bloodily captured much of the trial and crucifixion of Christ. Because of it’s graphicness, it was rated "R". The "R", of course, is because of the violence, the gore. In ...read more

[Abraham] (18) Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken [Gen 15], So shall thy seed [offspring] be….

    You’ll be like the Christmas tree that you remove from your house after the holidays. It is planted in a metal tree holder, the needles will fall off the moment you try to pick it up. The person who hasn’t experienced the love of Christ is nicely decorated but falls apart when handled.

     | 1,978 views

    Many people teach and practice things that are not in the Bible. Here is a sample of my book, "But Is It In The Bible?"

    At the outset, let me assure the reader that I believe that we are saved by grace through faith. We do not earn, merit, or work for salvation. It is a free gift, paid for and delivered by Jesus. But it is appropriated by faith. Faith is always more than mere head stuff. It is more than assent to ...read more
