The Most important event in all of human history is the resurrection of Jesus the Christ from the dead. In the resurrection, we see that Jehovah God sent Himself, a suffering servant, in the body of a man to atone for the sins of the world (Isaiah 49-57). The New Covenant is spoken of first in […]
Today is the day that Christianity commemorates that singular event in human history — the resurrection of Jesus Christ. And as usual, in the weeks leading up to this day, the secular press corps has devoted gallons of ink and miles of column inches to its annual debunking of the ‘myth’ of Jesus’ resurrection. This is also when various churchmen go public with their doubts about this central tenet of Christian teaching, questioning whether it REALLY happened, suggesting that if not, it doesn’t really make any difference. In his book, “Jesus 2000”, for example, Dr. George Carey, Archbishop of Canterbury, …
Hebrews 7:24-2524 but Jesus, on the other hand, because He continues forever, holds His priesthood permanently. 25 Therefore He is able also to save forever those who draw near to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them. We spend a lot of time worrying about physical needs—such as our house, car, food, finances, and health. All these are important in our life, but one form of assurance supersedes all the others. God desires for us to be confident in Him and in His saving grace. He gives us several reasons to be sure of our …
According to Christian tradition, the Friday before Easter is called ”Good Friday” because it is the day that Jesus Christ was crucified. GOOD Friday? The Crucifixion most probably did not actually take place on a Friday, anyway. The Scriptures make reference only to the ‘Sabbath’ and there were two Sabbath days during that particular Passover week. But it is on Friday that the world remembers, whether it wants to or not, that a Man was crucified on a hill called Golgotha outside the walls of Jerusalem for the sins of mankind. If the world wants to remember it as a …

We’re very fickle in our faith, aren’t we? We are inconsistent, ambivalent. We sing “My faith looks up to Thee” . . . until the medicine stops working, until the lights go out, until the bill comes due and we don’t have what it takes to pay it. Until our grades slip or our career takes a turn or we lose a mate . . . . How do we learn consistent faith? We learn it one day at a time. We learn it through endurance.James writes: “Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, knowing that …
We find in all our Lord’s life, an economy of miracle. He never put forth supernatural power, unless it was necessary. Could not Jesus have taken away the stone himself? Certainly he could. The power that could call the dead to life, could easily have lifted back the piece of rock from the door of the tomb. But there is always something left for human hands to do.God honors us by making us co-workers with himself, both in providence and grace. He feeds us—but ordinarily we must toil to earn and gather our own food. He saves people’s souls; but …
Dr. Mike Murphy “Seven hundred and sixty-two steps. I can still remember taking each of those steps as if it was yesterday. The confusion and the fear that filled me, the anger and hatred that surround me. And with each of those seven hundred and sixty-two steps, I feared each might be my last. We had travelled so far to get to the city that day. Days at sea, then two more days we walked to get there. Travelling that distance so my sons might also experience Passover that year, and see my beloved city for the first time. But …

No mean miracle was wrought in the rending of so strong and thick a veil; but it was not intended merely as a display of power–many lessons were herein taught us. The old law of ordinances was put away, and like a worn-out vesture, rent and laid aside. When Jesus died, the sacrifices were all finished, because all fulfilled in him, and therefore the place of their presentation was marked with an evident token of decay. That rent also revealed all the hidden things of the old dispensation: the mercy-seat could now be seen, and the glory of God gleamed …
