Father, Into Your Hands / Padre En Tus Manos

Contributed by Eloy Gonzalez on Apr 8, 2009

Good Friday: Jesus gave up his Spirit to his heavenly Father. He endured suffering and death as payment for our sin. Viernes Santo: Jesús entrego su Espíritu a su Padre Celestial. Paso por sufrimiento y muerte para pagar por nuestros pecados.

A Picture Of Jesus

Contributed by Don Baggett on Jun 26, 2010

The Bible is about Jesus, and there are many pictures of Him, even in the Old Testament where His name is not given. This message shows how Joseph is a picture of Jesus.

I heard a preacher say that Jesus is on every page of the Bible, even when His name is not called, and if you read a page and don’t find Jesus, you need to read it again, because the Bible is about Jesus. I agree with that. Today, I want you to see some ways that Joseph gives us a picture of ...read more
