Day Two! Part-Two.

Burial Preparations!

It was the traditional custom to prepare spices to keep the flies off the dead body and this was a legal requirement. Much of this hearkened back to the time when the Hebrews were living in Egypt and was an art in itself?

The woman were His mother and Mary Magdalene the whore who was delivered of evil spirits and some other woman, but next morning when they got yo the tomb it was empty!

Meanwhile the religious leaders of the day plotted to undermine His Disciples and followers that there was a resurrection!

In today's world there are many who are trying their hardest to discount the truth about Jesus, but we must make that choice for ourselves, wither we believe that He died for us or that we reject Him and face the consequences of Eternal separation from Him in Hell?

Luke 23:56,   24:1,   Exodus 30:25-37,   1 Chronicles 9:30,    2 Chronicles 16:14,   Mark 16:9,   John 20:14-18.

Direspect. Part-Two.

Hispanics?

It is easy to point the finger, when you have the money and security in life at other people who may be less fortunate than you? It is easy to brag about the size of your proverbial barns and tomorrow drop dead!

George Bush is correct in what he has said in relation to what is happening by these divisive moves in the States today! One man is so hypocritical and inward looking that he is destroying his own nation, in front of all who put him there into office?

This political incorrectness is much more common amongst governments than meets the eye? We see it in the U.K., Russia, China, across Africa, the Middle-East, Israel and all over the place?

But one day all of these people, wither they believe in Jesus or not will have to give their account to God!

Matthew/Levi 12:36, Romans 14:2, Hebrews 13:7, 1 Peter 4:5.

Easter. Part-Three.

Risen from the Dead!

Jesus said that he would die and rise from the dead on the third day, and he did! He was seen by well over five-hundred people between His resurrection and His Ascension back to Heaven, over a forty-day period.

Doubting Thomas is one proof, the broiled fish is another that he returned to us in the same body and was neither a ghost of some lofty Spirit! Jesus was the same flesh and blood as He always was, both fully the perfect, sinless man and God!

Now we come to the facts of faith-trust in relation to the resurrection of Jesus, because some cannot believe this to be a truth? Without understanding this key area of our salvation, we will not be delivered from the darkness of sin! In it we died with Him and rose with Him into the Eternal New Life!

John 11:25, 1 Corinthians 15:4, 12-13, 1 Thessalonians 4:14, 1 Peter 1:3, 8.

Memorials.

Remembering the Dead.

Every nation and culture on this planet and throughout human history has, does and will continue to remember their fallen from wars and terrorism, to conflicts? What ever we call the vetrans, they will march and mark their comrades within their own memories of wars?

The problem with humanity is that its politicians talk too much about peace, that they prove themselves to be true hypocrites, when they are planning the next conflict?  We are seein this all the time and all around the globe, even now in the U.S. people have two choices of the same, that suits neither of the majority?

Afghanistan, Libya, Mosul in Iraq, and Aleppo and Raaqa in Syria, if not in time U.S. and British forces will be back in the fighting areana, while a possible third world war is looming if NATO provokes the old Russian Bear?

Psalm 2:1-6,  Haggai 2:7, Acts 4:25,  James 3:17.

I Fear No Evil. Part-Two.

Zombies.

The African man and the Europeans both believe in the walking dead, but for different reasons.

In Jamaica they call the walking dead 'Duppies.'  This means white people. In Haiti the risen dead are called 'Zombies. 

Black Africans saw the return of the dead for revenge on the living.

Europeans see it as a time to again meet with dead relatives. 31st October. 'Halloween.

Jesus said to his disciples 'don't be troubled.'  

Matthew 14:26-27, Mark 6:49-50.
