    History is full of stories of betrayal. Those who look like friends sometimes turn on you. Some of us have friends who would sell us for even less than Judas’ thirty pieces of silver if they could!

    Picture in your mind one of the drawings or paintings that you have seen portraying Christ’s crucifixion. If the artist based his or her rendering of Calvary on the Bible’s account you probably saw three crosses in the picture. Although there were three crosses I am assuming one was probably more ...read more
