    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 28, 2022
     | 1,755 views

    The Resurrection of Jesus Christ is the foundation of the faith and the greatest event in the story of civilization. The proofs from Scripture and the lives changed by it cannot be ignored or denied.

    Those with discernment know that we have been living in a spiritual “Post Truth” world for a millennia. God's facts and truths have been less influential in shaping individual public opinion than have appeals to emotion, personal reason and perspectives.

    Welcome to the “Post-Truth” World! You may have heard that, back in December, the Oxford Dictionary announced that "Post-Truth" is its 2016 word of the year. According to the Dictionary's website, the word is "an adjective defined as 'relating to or denoting circumstances in which objective facts ...read more
