    Habiendo Jesús mismo experimentado la crueldad de la crucifixión, ¿por qué no nos evitaría este dolor tan horrendo? ¡Jesús simplemente quiso enseñarnos que era necesario morir!

La cruz era un castigo cruel al que podían ser sometidos los rebeldes o esclavos desobedientes. Dios mismo maldijo a todo aquel que colgaba de un madero (Deuteronomio 21:22, ...read more

    When we look back at our lives and the disasters they contain, we do have to ask whether we brought some of these things on ourselves, whether scapegoating is occurring. But God is at work in all things, even disasters, for the Kingdom.

    I’m convinced that the best education in the world is the one you gain listening to other people tell their life stories. So much can be learned just from hearing what others have been through. This past week I attended a workshop for ministers. It was supposed to be about creating and handling ...read more

We are told there was a thick darkness over the whole land for three hours, from "the sixth hour until the ninth hour," or from noon till three o’clock in the afternoon. ...read more
