Who Can This Be?

Contributed by Greg Newton on Dec 8, 2004

“WHO CAN THIS BE?” Intro: When we begin to study the wonderful things of this Bible, it causes me to think about the number of people that just refuse to believe that there can be a God so wonderful and great. God is so magnificent that it is hard for man to imagine someone being willing and able ...read more

The Look Of Love--From Jesus Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 21, 2022

What did He see in Jesus’s eyes? What attracted him? I think He saw love, because Jesus, whose whole life was an image of the Trinitarian love, pierced his soul with love.

Monday of 4th week in Course This Gospel brings to mind a letter of Pope Benedict, “Deus est caritas,” or “God is love.” If we look at the story of Jesus and this Gadarene madman, we are struck by the question, “why did Jesus bother with this guy?” He lived in a graveyard, he stank of dead flesh ...read more

When it did come up it was at out back, and it was at just the right angle when we went past the irrigation systems. The light of the Sun hit that ...read more
