Tuesday, Mar 31, 2020 Man’s Greatest Fear
“And if Christ is not risen, then our preaching is vain and your faith is also vain . . . But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.”
— 1 Corinthians 15:14, 20
Are you afraid to die? If so, you’re not alone.
That fear is quite natural.
But Jesus has solved this problem, the most incredible problem humankind has ever faced, generation after generation.
Death has endured since humanity’s fall, and people have asked, “If a person dies, will he or she rise again?”
By rising from the dead Himself, Jesus gave us irrefutable evidence that the answer is “yes.”
But people have doubted the truth of Christ’s resurrection.
Some of the most brilliant and skeptical minds of the last two thousand years have attempted to disprove it. But all those efforts have yielded nothing but the truth—that Christ rose from the dead. Let’s consider some of the facts that these skeptics have had to address.
First, the Christian Church has endured and grown until it has become the largest organization on the planet today.
That growth began in the first century, when the apostles began to preach that Jesus had risen from the dead.
Next, to disprove the Resurrection, skeptics have had to explain the empty tomb; the broken Roman seal (if someone broke a Roman seal, he or she received the death penalty); and the Roman guards, who faced sure death if they left their posts or fell asleep on the job.
Most important, skeptics have had to dispute Christ’s appearances after His resurrection.
The people saw Him, heard Him, touched Him.
He fixed breakfast for his disciples.
He ate fish with them. He appeared to five hundred people at one time.
Furthermore, the apostles were transformed.
One day they huddled in an upper room fearing for their lives, but soon after that they boldly proclaimed Christ’s resurrection in public.
And all except John died for what they proclaimed, sealing their testimony in their own blood.
For these reasons and many more, we have a sure foundation for our faith in Christ’s resurrection.
Because we know the Resurrection really happened, we know Christ has conquered death, and we no longer need to fear it.
“. . . the evidence speaks for itself. It says very clearly—
CHRIST IS RISEN INDEED.” Josh Mcdowell | ||||||

Christ Jesus prayed that all those who would believe in Him would be ONE, just as He and the Father are ONE; that they be brought to complete unity so that the world would know that He was sent by the Father. (John 17:20-23)
Heaven Is Our Destination Where We Will Be ONE With The Lord Forever
Today, we are in The Season Of The Last Generation. The Birth Pains that Christ Jesus spoke about are currently under way, including natural and unnatural disasters. They will be ever increasing. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold. Social, economic and political turmoil will be ever increasing, causing people's hearts to be weighed down with dissipation, drunkenness and the anxieties of life. An apostasy within the Church of God is currently under way. This will all reach a climax with Satan revealing his Antichrist and requiring that everyone worship him; That every one receive his "mark" in order to buy or sell; The new currency of the New World Order, the New Tower of Babel.
Tom's books include: Called By Christ To Be ONE, The Time Of The END, The Season Of The Last Generation, Worship God In Spirit And In Truth, Daniel And The Time Of The END, and Overcoming The Evil One. They are available at amazon.com. They can also be read without cost by clicking on link: Toms Books.
To receive Christ Jesus as a child by faith is the highest human achievement.
Today, the Bride Of Christ is rising up in every nation in the world! Giving Glory to Her Savior and King, Christ Jesus!
Today, the world is Raging against God, Rushing toward Oblivion! Save yourself from this Corrupt Generation!
Today, America is being ground to powder because of it's SIN against God!
