The Masterpiece Of The Gospel: The Resurrection

Contributed by Billy Ricks on Mar 18, 2008

The only true masterpiece of man is sin, God’s masterpiece uses the centerpiece (the cross) to paint over the ugly and unacceptable work of man. God’s masterpiece is still the good news. It is still the greatest story ever told.

Michelangelo had his Sistine chapel, Leonardo DaVinchi had the Mona Lisa and the Last Supper, and Van Gogh had his self portrait.

Easter - The Reality Of The Resurrection

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Apr 2, 2020

This was the promised fulfillment of God's plan of redemption and restoration. Finally the walls of separation were ...read more
