     | 5,414 views

    Every year we wonder, "Will Jesus return this year?" We don't know but the Bible tells us that we need to be ready when He does come and we must be about the Father's business just as Jesus on earth was.

    Who Killed Jesus?

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Aug 25, 2025
     | 212 views

    Who killed Jesus? Was it Judas, Caiaphas, or the Jews in general? The Apostles Creed says “He was crucified under Pontius Pilate,” no one else. If we’re looking for someone to blame, the buck stops at Rome.

This is easily seen when an oil spill in the ocean traps various sea life and threatens its existence. A poorly maintained ship can leak engine oil into the water as it ...read more
