     | 10,333 views

    If there is one sin that is most prevalent today, it is the sin of ingratitude. God does so much for us. Our indebtedness to Him is enormous and yet we rarely or at least infrequently offer thanks for what He has done.

    The Romans tortured Jesus out of ignorance. But is that a justifiable excuse?

    It’s interesting to contrast how the suffering of Jesus is portrayed. There are depictions that are rated PG. There’s hardly any blood; and Jesus looks more annoyed than in pain. There’s a heavenly glow around His head, as He gazes into heaven. Then there are depictions that more ...read more
