Jesus
The Incomparable Jesus
One week from today we will halt our busy schedules and remember the birthday of Jesus. It is celebrated by more people around the globe than any other holiday. Why?
Because no greater person ever walked the earth than Jesus Christ.
For the next two weeks I will re-publish the most widely read blogs I have ever written. They’re important because they focus on the one person who’s most crucial to our lives–both here on earth and also after we die.
He is “the Way” in both realms.
Let’s worship the incomparable Jesus.
Don’t Give Up on an American Renewal
I believe that the latter part of the 20th century and first of the 21st could be described one day as the “Great Turning Away” of the Western World from God, faith, freedom and the blessings that flow from Bible-based nations and civilization.
It will be lamented as one of the most foolish and tragic rejections of truth in the history of humankind. Though Europe is further down that destructive path, America is not far behind.
But don’t give up yet on another American renewal. Nearly 70% of U.S. voters still believe in the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Why the Resurrection is the Greatest Event in History
There are many events that impacted history over the past six thousand years. (Creation scientists calculate 4128 B.C. for the earth’s birthday.)
Some of those events were disastrous. Others changed the world for good (in varying degrees).
One could easily make the argument that Good Friday–when Jesus died for the sins of the world–stands out as the greatest event in history.
But I still believe the resurrection tops the list.
Here’s why.
