    The Tomb Is Empty

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Mar 19, 2023
     | 1,768 views

    The empty tomb is all the evidence we need to prove the central claim of Christianity: the resurrection of Jesus.

    There’s an old joke that people tell about cemeteries when they drive by: ‘How many people are dead in that one?’ the answer, of course, is “All of them.” It’s true, isn’t it? Tombs are for people who have died. The really important ones may be called sepulchres or mausoleums. Some of them are ...read more

    Paul arrived at Ephesus and tried to share the Gospel with the Jews in the synagogue. After they rejected him, Paul found another place to teach. He also found a ministry of healing in Ephesus, too.

Now he’s moving on into his pattern, “to the Jew first, and also to the Greek (or Gentile, Romans 1:16)”. There’s another pattern, so to ...read more

     | 3,048 views

    Leading others to Christ is a persistent and consistent call to patiently engage others with the Gospel that will convince them to "come down out of the tree with joy" like Zacchaeus.

    WE ARE CALLED TO MAKE DISCIPLES IN OBEDIENCE TO OUR COMMAND OF THE GREAT COMMISSION OF JESUS. WE ARE ALL GIFTED WITH THE ABILITY TO LEAD OTHERS TO CHRIST. AS WE ARE REMINDED, 1 PETER 3:15-16, “IF SOMEONE ASKS ABOUT YOUR HOPE AS A BELIEVER, ALWAYS BE READY TO EXPLAIN IT. BUT DO THIS IN A GENTLE AND ...read more

    The Divinity Of Jesus

    Contributed by Jeff Hagan on Apr 28, 2022
     | 1,502 views

    Almost everyone believes Jesus really existed, but who do they say that he was/is?

    We have reached a point in history where there is virtually no need to argue for the existence of the person of Jesus. Even liberal scholars, theologians, historians and archaeologists now concede that the person of Jesus found in the Bible is an historical reality. However, the debate rages on to ...read more
