    God through Pilate gives Israel one last chance before consigning the nation to perpetual judgment. Their abject rejection meant the loss of the nation ethnically and opened the door to all who will believe to become God's chosen people.

    Forgiveness Must Have A Face

    Contributed by Rev Ken Shedenhelm on Sep 22, 2013
     | 4,722 views

    There's nothing more important to a Christian than forgiveness. It is the basis of our salvation, and we can't love one another as He loved us without forgiving one another. Therefore, we need to understand what forgiveness is and what it is not.

    "When I was a kid, I used to pray every night for a new bicycle. Then I realized that the Lord doesn't work that way... so I stole a bicycle... and asked him to forgive me." Well, there are 100s of jokes about forgiveness- the one I read is by Emo Phillips- and there are legions of people who ...read more

    Jesus could have removed the stone by just speaking a word, but the Lord was teaching us that He uses men, in the process of raising those who are dead in their sins. Perhaps there are stones in our lives that we need to move to be a help to the Lord
