    In JOHN 19:34 it tells us that, as Jesus hung on the cross, a guard pierced His side. In JOHN 19:35, it says that the one who loved him saw it personally and knows it is true.

    Flesh And Spirit: Love And Gentleness Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Aug 21, 2009
     | 4,318 views

    Why is it that some situations cause us to lose our tempers? Why do we sometimes lose all sense of reason and just get angry all over? Why is it that when we are trying to get someone else to do what we want them to do, we can barely control our rage? A few weeks ago I introduced you to our new ...read more

    The young man who lost his linen cloth and ran away naked may be a wealthy person, depending on status; or Lazarus, living in the past, or Mark, caught in immaturity. But He who dropped another linen cloth gives life.

    Not too many years ago, Easter was the day on which everyone trotted out new clothes. It was on Easter that spring dresses sprung off the racks for young girls, and starched collars irritated the necks of young men. I don’t miss the starched collars, but I do rather miss the elaborate display of ...read more
