Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 5, 2021

Dead Christians came out of the graves when Jesus rose from the dead, and this leads to many questions about the ghosts of the godly.

History is full of the weird and mysterious in relation to the dead. In Barbados, in the West Indies, in 1812, a vault was opened and three coffins were in a confused state.

The Law Of Moses Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Oct 18, 2020

Was the Mosaic law good or bad? Why did God give it to Israel, and what part did it play for His people?

In their accounts we read that He went everywhere preaching, teaching, and doing miracles. In those three-and-a-half years ...read more
