    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Nov 27, 2017
     | 23,064 views

    When a person dies, especially a young person, we celebrate the life at the person's funeral. We shouldn't be celebrating a life that has been taken far too soon. Instead, God's children should make the devil pay for taking that life.

    Water is what brings Christians together. Our baptism by water makes us all family. The bonds of the branches to the vine should be stronger than blood bonds.

    The old saying that “blood is thicker than water” was being upended in this narrative. In this case, one can say that water is thicker than blood. Water is referring to the initiation rite of baptism. At that ceremony, the person being baptized with water becomes a member of the Christian family. ...read more
