    It’s not enough to simply call Jesus Lord, we really have to abandon ourselves to Him, deny ourselves, deny our old pattern of life, and embrace the new pattern of carrying our cross with Jesus. Otherwise there’s no hope. We have to give it all over!

    Abandon yourself to God. What does it mean exactly? When we become a follower of Jesus, we are renouncing, or throwing off our old ways of life. And we’re choosing a new way of life. A life which is now fundamentally under the command and control of God Almighty. We abandon ourselves to God. We ...read more

    Many people wonder what the big deal is about Jesus' resurrection since there have been other people who woke up from the dead. Jesus, however, is different from everyone else. He is the only one who rose and never did again. Halleluiah!

    So what Jesus resurrected? Has he been the only one who has ever been raised from death? Yes, to this question, there is no big deal because so many other people have been raised from death.
