    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 9, 2015
     | 2,618 views

    Jesus went willingly to His death for our sakes, to fulfill the covenant obligation God freely took on with Abraham.

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Jun 4, 2015
     | 5,570 views

     | 4,315 views

    The information-driven society is one that tries to secularize and pervert the human family into something it can never become.

    Thursday of 5th week in Course 2015 Joy of the Gospel Jesus has such a sense of humor that some commentators have mistaken it for cruelty. Of course, Jesus never sinned, so thinking this comment about throwing the bread to the dogs is a real insult is wrongheaded thinking. In reality, Jesus was ...read more
