“All heaven is interested in the cross of Christ, all hell is terribly afraid of it, while men are the only beings who more or less ignore its meaning.” -Oswald Chambers.
At a world gathering of religious leaders the spokesman for Christianity came to the heart of the matter when he said, "Religion means to me victory, victory, victory!" That is the thrust of our faith. Christianity means victory over sin! Christianity means victory over death! Christianity means victory over the grave! Christianity means victory over Hell itself! - J. Michael Shannon
William Sangster, the great preacher, was terminally ill with cancer. He could get about but could not speak. One Easter Sunday morning, he seemed especially despondent. Finally he wrote on his pad: "What tragedy! Resurrection Lord's Day and no voice with which to praise my great Redeemer's name." Then he sat dejectedly gazing out the window. Finally, he wrote again: "There is only one thing more tragic to have a voice and fail to praise the great Redeemer's Name." - J. Michael Shannon.
1Th 4:14 says: “For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.”
