A Credit Line Of Righteousness Series

Contributed by David Dykes on Oct 30, 2014

The difference between when Jesus died and the death of every martyr or every hero who ever died is this: Those people died and they are still dead. The thing about Jesus Christ is he died, he was buried, and he came back after three days.
