The ceremony was held in Charleston, SC to honor 257 dead Union Soldiers who had been buried in a mass grave in a Confederate prison camp. The former slaves dug up the bodies and worked for 2 weeks to give ...read more

    Heaven Is A Marriage Series

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Jun 24, 2013

    Marriage is about the union of two hearts, and in Heaven it is the marriage of Christ and His Church. If we do not see ourselves connected/united to Christ in a covenantal relationship, we will fail to grasp the nature of life after death.

    In Revelation 21, John the Apostle sees Heaven as “a bride dressed for her husband.” The Apostle Paul in Ephesians 5 compares the union of husband and wife to that of Christ and the church. We are the Bride of Christ. It’s been said, regarding Heaven, the Bible provides the ...read more
