You are His! STAN JENSEN and STAFF Thank you for that. I needed especially to hear that today as Jan and I earlier today, read the account of Jesus standing before Pilate, while the Jewish leaders and the crowd shouted for His crucifixion. It was especially meaningful to me as I recognize it was and is my failings (sins) that put Him there. He could so easily have said, "I've had enough!", and left us all without hope. Pilate's Question, "Why, what has He done?" literally haunts me, for there is no plausible reason except a Father's love for each of us. Earth is not the only place where the tears that are being shed will at last be wiped away.

Administrators Gail Posted February 11, 2011 Administrators Share Posted February 11, 2011 Awesome! Praise God that ALL of our failing and sins have fallen on Him, and that Jesus did the ultimate thing someone could do and that is die for his friends. AND enemies! While we were yet sinners Christ died for us! Talk about rejection and unrequited love! Yet His love was so great... Quote Isaiah 32:17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote phkrause By the decree enforcing the institution of the papacy in violation of the law of God, our nation will disconnect herself fully from righteousness. When Protestantism shall stretch her hand across the gulf to grasp the hand of the Roman power, when she shall reach over the abyss to clasp hands with spiritualism, when, under the influence of this threefold union, our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government, and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions, then we may know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan and that the end is near. {5T 451.1} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
