But more than just getting us out of trouble, He got us into life! One man said no to God and put many people in the ...read more

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 6, 2022

The resurrection of Christ is the most important topic of the Bible. It is not one of the most important, but THE MOST IMPORTANT topic of the Bible.
