    A little snatch of dialogue from a television show caught my attention. Could it be true, or was it just so much pretentious hype?

    Because Jesus rose from the dead – so will we. We can look our ancient enemy death, straight in the eye and say, I’m not scared of you. Christians don’t stay in their tombs when they die. Neither are they meant to live in tombs while they are alive.

    Most people don't understand freedom

    Everybody on earth desires freedom. I do, and if I were a betting man, I’d gamble that you do, too! But many people don’t understand what freedom is or what freedom is not. Unfortunately, some people’s idea of, and quest for, freedom actually enslaves and imprisons them. Jude advises us “For ...read more
