    Friday afternoon. It’s another hot day in Jerusalem. You could never call crucifixion ordinary. But the Romans did it all the time. Two Thieves, three crosses. Who is the man in the middle who offers paradise?

    The power that raised Christ Jesus from the dead, raised Him...and us...far above all things. (#13 in the "Every Spiritual Blessing" series)

    Despite the Fall of man, or perhaps, because of the Fall, there has always existed in the human breast the desire ~ the need ~ to rise above one’s circumstances; outside of one’s own limitations.

    Contributed by Ray Ellis on Sep 8, 2008

    In raising children we soon come to realize each of our children are unique. We can’t raise our children with a cookie-cutter approach

    Training Up: Parents or Children Proverbs 22:6 “Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it.” I’m sure there are some Christian parents who would like Proverbs 22:6 to read this way: “Rear your children as moral, upright, God-fearing, church going kids. ...read more

    The God Who Gives Life To The Dead

    Contributed by Paul Mulani on Apr 29, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 14,309 views

    Quite often we want God to do new things in our lives. However, many a times God wants to raise the dead, to bring to life what is dead in our lives, and not just give us brand new things. He wants to renew, give life to the dead things in our lives so that they will bring life to the whole person.

    I want to begin by pointing out a correction that Jesus made to Martha's view on resurrection, a mistake that many people make even today. In John 11:40 we read, "Jesus said to her, “Did I not say to you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?” That was a kind rebuke. ...read more
