Death Of The Righteous

Contributed by Segun Omole on May 3, 2012

Christians pray about heaven but no one really wants to die. Death I have come to understand is a vehicle to glory for a Christian.

To man death of a righteous man means a waste. Their place is left vacant and what they used to do is left undone. We mourn and cry for we see them no more. Wondering whether we would ever see them again even in eternity as we are still on the journey hoping to reach the right destination in ...read more

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Aug 4, 2019

Shepherds?

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Mar 24, 2020

It was lowly shepherds who got the most impressive announcement about the birth of the Messiah. That tells us a lot about the God we serve.

I think the presence of the shepherds has to be one of my favorite parts of the Christmas story. They don’t say much. They don’t do much. But it sure was important to God that they be there for the birth of Jesus. And that says a lot. When the time came to tell Zechariah about the birth of ...read more
