Good morning, blog readers, from partly cloudy/sunny and muggy (63 degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk, I saw: 28 robins, 12 crows, 10 grackles, 3 blackbirds, 3 bunnies, 2 cardinals, 2 cranes, a deer, a dog and a dove! Thank You, Jesus!

This headline from a recent “Christian Post” saddened and angered me: “77 Christians rescued from Nigerian church basement waiting months for Jesus Christ’s return.”

In the article, Anugrah Kumar reported: “Police in Nigeria rescued at least 77 people, including 23 children, who pastors had asked to stay in a church basement and wait for the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.

Pastors of the Whole Bible Believer Church in the Valentino Area of Ondo town in the southwestern state of Ondo had encouraged church members ‘to stay behind’ and wait for the rapture or to be taken to Heaven at the second coming of Christ, a spokeswoman of the Ondo State Police told the media.

Preliminary investigation revealed that one Pastor, Josiah Peter Asumosa, an assistant pastor in the church, was the one who told the members that the Rapture will take place in April, but later said it has been changed to September 2022 and told the young members to obey only their parents ‘in the Lord,’ BBC quoted police press officer Funmilayo Odunlami as saying. The one who claimed that Jesus was to come by September said that it was what God told him.”

Jesus told His disciples in Matthew 24:4, “See to it that no one misleads you.” And, in verse 24, He also said: “For false Christs and false prophets will arise and will show great signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even the elect,” that is, the believers in Jesus.

I know something about this from my own experience which I shared in my book: “Birth Pains: An Introduction to Bible Prophecy.” Back in 1988, I received a book in the mail, “88 Reasons Why the Rapture Will Be in 1988 by Edgar C. Whisenant who even said it would occur during the ‘Feast of Trumpets’ (September 11-13) that year. I was new to the subject of Bible Prophecy and the “Rapture” or the “second coming of Christ” for His bride, the church. And so, I got a little excited about it until the dates came and went without Christ’s arrival. And, when Whisenant sent me another book, “89 Reasons Why the Rapture would occur in 1989,” I knew he was a false teacher who was to be avoided like the plague.

And, yes, Jesus did say He is coming again. In fact, in Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke 21, He gives us some very specific “clues” or “signs” which will lead up to His return, describing them like “birth pains” (Matthew 24:8) which means that, as we get closer to His return, the pains will increase in frequency and intensity. Jesus also said, in Mark 13:32, “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone.” So, no one knows the exact day or hour of the Lord’s return. However, I also believe, based on Scriptures like I Thessalonians 5:1-6, that the Lord’s return for His bride will not surprise us, as we watch the “signs” of His return increasing in frequency and intensity. So, dear brothers and sisters in Christ, let us “stay on the alert” (Mark 13:33, 35, 37) and keep watching, waiting, working, witnessing for, walking with and worshiping Jesus until He comes. And, if you are not yet a believer in Jesus, there’s still time to become one by agreeing with God you are a sinner who needs a Savior Who is Jesus (Romans 3:23, 24) Who died on a cross for your sins, was buried and raised from the dead (I Corinthians 15:1-4) to forgive all your sins and give you eternal life (John 3:16). Please now I love you

Good morning, blog readers, from partly cloudy/sunny and warm (70 degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk, I saw: 28 robins, 4 blackbirds, 4 crows, 3 doves, 2 bunnies, a cardinal and a deer! Thank You, Jesus!

Here are some headlines which caught my prophetical eye this morning:

#1. Russia demands Israel unconditionally cease its ‘unacceptable’ Syria airstrikes (TOI Staff)

#2. Pathologist Speaks Out About COVID Jab Effects (Dr. Joseph Mercola)

#3. Two Years Before It Happened (Dr. Michael Nevradakis)

#4. Eight “moderate” (5.0-5.4) earthquakes over the last 24 hours (Doug Livingston, USGS)

In the first article, the Times of Israel Staff and Agencies reported: “For the second time in weeks, Moscow slams Israel for ‘violating Syrian sovereignty,’ says 2 civilians were injured in strike and severe damage caused to civilian infrastructure.” Note: According to Isaiah 17:1, at some time in the future, Damascus will “be removed from being a city, and will become a fallen ruin.” I am thinking (and I could be wrong) as a result of an Israeli nuclear strike.

In the second article, Dr. Joseph Mercola wrote: “In the wake of the COVID jab rollout and additional boosters, a number of health conditions are on the rise, including cancer, most notably cancers of the uterus, endometrial cancers, and very aggressive blood and brain cancers.”

In the third article, Dr. Michael Nevradakis said: “Just a few months into the COVID-19 pandemic – and almost two years before global health officials warned of a food shortage crisis – the Rockefeller Foundation issued a report predicting the crisis and offering up solutions, including ‘shifts to online enrollment and online purchasing of food.”

And, in the fourth article, according to the USGS, I found there were, over the last 24 hours, 8 “moderate” (5.0-5.4) earthquakes in or near India (4), the South Sandwich Islands (2), the Pacific-Antarctic Ridge and the West Chile Rise.

And, there you have it in prophecy (R.P.F.E.): Russia (Ezekiel 38-39), Plagues, Famines and Earthquakes in various places (Matthew 24:7; Mark 13:8; Luke 21:11). Remember, Jesus said that the “signs” leading up to His return would come like “birth pains” (Matthew 24:8). I am thinking (and I could be wrong) we are now in what I like to call “the first trimester” of the birth pains. Stay tuned!

Yes, Jesus is coming! And, He is coming for His bride, the church, to take us to His Father’s house in heaven (John 14:1-3). I can’t wait; but, wait I must. Let me ask you: “Do you know for sure that, when Jesus comes, He will come for you?” You can know for sure by agreeing with God you are a sinner who needs a Savior Who is Jesus (Romans 3:23, 24) Who died on a cross for your sins, was buried and raised from the dead (I Corinthians 15:1-4) to forgive all your sins and give you eternal life (John 3:16). And, if you are a believer in Jesus, fix your eyes on Him (Hebrews 12:2) while watching, waiting, working, witnessing for, walking with and worshiping Jesus until He comes. Blessings, Doug (7/5/22)

Good morning, blog readers, from cloudy and warm (69 degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk, I saw: 42 robins, 12 crows, 5 blackbirds, 5 doves, 4 grackles, 3 bunnies, 3 cardinals, 3 deer, a dog and an oriole! Thank You, Jesus!

Here are two recent headlines from Israel which got my attention this morning:

#1. “Report: Israel bombs ‘game changing’ Iranian air defense network in Syria” (World Israel News)

#2. IDF intercepts 3 Hezbollah drones approaching Israel’s Karish gas rig (Jewish News Syndicate)

In the first article, the World Israel News Staff reported: “Israeli forces intercepted and destroyed an Iranian air defense system in transit in northern Syria over the weekend, according to a report by Israeli television.”

In the second article, the JNS Staff wrote: “The Israel Defense Forces on Saturday shot down three unmanned aerial vehicles approaching Israel’s Karish offshore natural gas platform from Lebanon. One of the UAVs was downed by an F-16 fighter jet, while the other two were intercepted by the INS Eilat missile corvette, according to the IDF. All three were shot down over the Mediterranean Sea, the IDF said.”

What is interesting and, perhaps prophetical, about these stories is that Israel’s attackers were from Syria, Iran and Hezbollah, all of which are mentioned either in Psalm 83, Isaiah 17:1 or Ezekiel 38.

Also, I believe (and I could be wrong) all of Israel’s enemies will either be destroyed by Israel’s “exceedingly great army (Ezekiel 37:10) or by the Lord God Himself (Ezekiel 38:18-39:29).

And, over the last 24 hours, there were six “moderate” (5.0, 5.0, 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.6) in or near India (4), Wallus and Fortuna (northeast of Fiji) and Alaska. And, speaking of earthquakes, let us be thankful these are “moderate” and not “strong” (6.0-6.9), “major” (7.0-7.9) or “great” (8.0+) quakes which, according to Jesus, are coming and will increase in “frequency and intensity,” like “birth pains” (Matthew 24:7, 8) before His return. So, stay tuned!

Yes, dearly beloved in Christ, these are exciting and scary times. But, we are not to be afraid which the Lord tells us, according to my research, 57 times in His Word, because He is always with us and will give us what we need to calm our fears and move us forward in victory to His glory.

So, let us keep watching, waiting, working, witnessing for, walking with and worshiping Jesus until He comes or calls us home. And, if you are not a believer in Jesus, please, do not wait another minute: agree with God you are a sinner who needs a Savior Who is Jesus (Romans 3:23, 24) Who died on a cross for your sins, was buried and raised from the dead (I Corinthians 15:1-4) to forgive all your sins and give you eternal life (John 3:16). And, if you do, I’ll see you in heaven! Blessings, Doug (7/4/22)

Good morning, blog readers, from sunny and cool (62 degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk, I saw: 24 robins, 14 grackles, 8 blackbirds, 4 cranes, 3 doves, a bunny and a crow! Thank You, Jesus!

This headline, from today’s Jerusalem Post, made me think of the prophecy of Psalm 83: “Prime Minister Yair Lapid slams Hezbollah in first cabinet meeting.”

In the article, Lahav Harkov wrote: “Israel will defend itself and its assets,” Prime Minister Yair Lapid warned on Sunday, a day after the IAF thwarted an attempted attack by Hezbollah on a gas rig in Israeli waters. Lapid continued: “In the coming months, our goal, of everyone at this table, is to run the government as if there is no coming election. The citizens of Israel are entitled to a functioning government at any given moment. This is the expectation from my fellow ministers. Hezbollah is continuing its act of terror and damaging Lebanon’s ability to reach a maritime border agreement,” with Israel, Lapid said. “Israel will continue to defend itself, its citizens and its infrastructure.”

Let me remind you again that, at some time in the future, in my opinion, based on Psalm 83, Israel’s neighbors will attempt to “wipe them (Israel) out as a nation, that the name of Israel be remembered no more.” And, let me also remind you, from Jeremiah 31:35-37, that, as long as there is a sun, a moon and the stars, there will always be an Israel. God said it; I believe it; that settles it; let’s get on with it!

And, I might add, you can also read Ezekiel 38 and 39, to see what the Lord God will do to Israel’s enemies (Russia, Iran, Ethiopia, Libya, Turkey and the other nations who invade Israel “to take a spoil.” Believe me, it won’t be pretty!

So, dearly beloved in Christ, on this Lord’s Day, let us continue to watch, wait, work, witness for, walk with and worship Jesus until He comes. And, if you are not a believer in Jesus, please know time is running out – Jesus is coming and you need Him as your Savior or else you will experience the worst time in human history (Matthew 24:21, 22) and, more importantly, an eternity in hell. Please know God loves you and I am praying for y’all from here in southern Wisconsin. Blessings, Doug (7/3/22)

Good morning, blog readers, from partly cloudy/sunny and warm (64 degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk, I saw: 20 robins, 15 blackbirds, 15 grackles, 4 cranes, 4 doves, 3 bunnies, 2 cardinals, 2 crows and 2 dogs! Thank You, Jesus!

Over the last 24 hours, there have been, two “strong” (6.0) earthquakes in Iran which were followed by two “moderate” (5.7, 5.0) and 11 “light” (4.6, 4.5, 4.5, 4.5, 4.4. 4.4, 4.2, 4.2, 4.2, 4.2, 4.2) quakes.

As Russia continues to bomb and destroy Ukraine, the prophet Ezekiel has told us, in Ezekiel 38 and 39, that, one day, Iran will join Russia and a host of other nations to invade Israel “to take a spoil.” And, what is interesting and fascinating about this is that God sets up the whole thing to destroy Russia, Iran and the other invaders. And, you might want to read Ezekiel 40-48 where the prophet tells us about the return of the Messiah (Jesus) Who will rebuild the temple in Jerusalem and set up His kingdom. Exciting stuff for those who believe in Jesus as their Savior and coming King.

So, dearly beloved in Christ, fix your eyes on Jesus (Hebrews 12:2) and keep watching, waiting, working, witnessing for, walking with and worshiping Jesus until He comes. And, if you are still not a believer in Jesus, please, pretty please, agree with God you are a sinner who needs a Savior Who is Jesus (Romans 3:23, 24) and believe He died on a cross for your sins, was buried and raised from the dead to forgive all your sins and give you eternal life (I Corinthians 15:1-4; John 3:16). Blessings, Doug (7/2/22)

Good morning, blog readers, from sunny and warm (69 degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk, I saw: 36 robins, 13 grackles, 9 blackbirds, 3 dogs, 2 bunnies, 2 crows, a dove and a finch! Thank You, Jesus!

This morning, these two headlines got my attention:

#1. “Biden: US will support Ukraine ‘as long as it takes’ to win war” (Associated Press)

#2. “US test of hypersonic missile fails amid China, Russia pressure (Jerusalem Post)

In the first article, Susan Walsh reported: “President Biden on Thursday said the U.S. and its allies would provide support ‘as long as it takes’ for Ukraine to win its war against Russia. We are going to stick with Ukraine, and all of the alliance is going to stick with Ukraine as long as it takes to in fact make sure that they are not defeated … in Ukraine by Russia,” Biden told reporters at a press conference at the NATO summit.”

In the second article, Roman Meitav wrote: “With Russia, China and North Korea developing their own hypersonic missile capabilities, with some being able to carry nuclear warheads, the Pentagon is feeling the pressure.

A flight test of a new hypersonic missile system in Hawaii, named ‘Conventional Prompt Strike’ failed, most likely due to a problem that took place after ignition, the US Department of Defense said in a statement. The recent failure marks the second unsuccessful test flight of the prototype weapon. In October 2021, a booster malfunction, which prevented the missile from leaving the launch pad, rendered the weapon system’s first test flight a failure as well.”

As I have said before, in light of Ezekiel 38 & 39, I believe (and I could be wrong) God will take Russia away from one country (perhaps Ukraine) and, along with a massive army of other nations, will invade Israel with only a mild protest from some of the nations to “take a spoil ” (Ezekiel 38:13), only to be defeated and destroyed by the Lord God Himself. Then, I believe (and I could be wrong) that will pave the way for “the kings from the east” (China, perhaps North Korea and others) to march to Megiddo where the Lord God Himself will destroy all of His enemies when He returns to the earth to reign as King (Revelation 16:12-19:21). Personally I also believe (and I could be wrong) we might just be around to see some of this happen.

So, dear brothers and sisters in Christ, keep watching, waiting, working, witnessing for, walking with and worshiping Jesus until He comes. And, if you are not a believer in Jesus, c’mon now, swallow your pride and agree with God you are a sinner who needs a Savior Who is Jesus (Romans 3:23, 24) Who died on a cross for your sins, was buried and raised from the dead (I Corinthians 15:1-4) to forgive all your sins and give you eternal life (John 3:16) Blessings, Doug (7/1/22)

Good morning, blog readers, from sunny and warm (72 degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk, I saw: 20 robins, 8 blackbirds, 5 grackles, a bunny, a crow and a dove! Thank You, Jesus!

This headline, from a 6/28/22 Technocracy News and Trends, caught my eye this morning: “Scientific Dictatorship: EU Technocrats Ignore 99% Negative Public Feedback, Renew Digital Covid Passport Anyway.”

In the article, the TN Editor reported: “The EU is run by Technocrats for Technocrats and in the case of vaccine passports, the ‘science is settled’ and their 447 million citizens are forced to be tracked. spindled, numbered, punched and stapled. This is a clear picture of the dystopian, hardline disposition of scientific dictatorship, aka Technocracy.”

Then, there was this headline from another 6/28/22 Technocracy News and Trends: “Survey: More Than 750,000 Dead, 30 Million Injured Because of Covid Vax.”

In this article, the TN Editor wrote: “As the war with Technocracy expands, dead bodies and injured citizens pile up in record numbers. In WWII, America lost 405,000 soldiers with 670,000 wounded. This genocide is of epic proportions and yet the vast majority of people are in denial that there is even an issue, as they line up for their mRNA boosters.”

Now, remember, Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life (John 14:6) and Satan (aka, the devil) is a “murderer and the father of lies (John 8:44).” Question: “To whom are you listening?”

Oh, and one more, perhaps prophetic, headline from the BBC: “Japan swelters in its worst heatwave ever.” In the article, the BBC Staff reported: “Japan is sweltering under the hottest day yet of its worst heatwave since records began in 1875.” The reason: “Human-induced climate change.” The real reason: God. See Revelation 16:8, 9.

Yes, dear brothers and sisters in Christ, He is coming! He even gave us some “signs” of what to look for in Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke 21 which will come upon the world like “birth pains” (Matthew 24:8) and will increase in frequency and intensity as we get closer to His return. So, stay tuned and keep watching, waiting, working, witnessing for, walking with and worshiping Jesus until He comes. And, if you are not a believer in Jesus, please agree with God you are a sinner who needs a Savior Who is Jesus and believe He died on a cross for your sins, was buried and raised from the dead (I Corinthians 15:1-4) to forgive all your sins and give you eternal life (John 3:16). Please know that God loves you; I do too and am praying for you. Blessings with love, Doug (6/30/22)

Good morning, blog readers, from sunny and cool (60 degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk, I saw: 22 robins, 7 blackbirds, 5 crows, 4 cranes, 4 deer, 4 grackles, 3 bunnies and 3 doves,! Thank You, Jesus!

This headline, from the 6/27/22 “Defender,” caught my eye and made me sad: ‘Virtual’ Kids – Another WEF Strategy for Controlling Global Population.”

In the article, Dr. Joseph Mercola wrote: “Artificial intelligence expert Catriona Campbell predicts virtual children will be commonplace within the next 50 years, which can help combat overpopulation. The virtual children would only exist in the metaverse, and parents would interact with them using high-tech wearables like gloves that can deliver tactile feedback to replicate physical sensations. Climate change, overpopulation, transhumanism and digitization of human life are all part and parcel of The Great Reset agenda, which will not be complete until humanity is enslaved to the unelected few who will run the world through algorithms and AI.”

HMMMMM! Controlling global population. Maybe, just maybe, that is why abortion is such an important issue, along with wars, pandemics (plague) and food shortages (famines). Interestingly enough, Jesus spoke about these, as “signs” leading up to His return in Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke 21. And, the apostle John wrote these “chilling” words in Revelation 6:8, “And I looked, and behold an ashen horse; and he who sat on it had the name Death; and Hades was following with him. And authority was given to them over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword (war) and with famine and with pestilence (plague) and by the wild beasts of the earth.” And, in Revelation 9:15-18, John also wrote about another third of the population being killed in a future judgment by “fire, smoke and brimstone.”

Let us not forget: God is not only the Creator of the “heavens and the earth” (Genesis 1:1), but also of life. On the other hand, Jesus, in John 8:44, called the devil (aka Satan) “a murderer, a liar and the father of lies.” And, despite what you might think that God delights in sending people to hell, He does not, as we read, in Ezekiel 33:11 where we read: “As I live, declares the Lord God, ‘I take no pleasure in the death of the wicked ( all the unbelievers), but rather that the wicked turn from his way and live.”

And so, if you are reading this and are not a believer in Jesus, please agree with God you are a sinner who needs a Savior Who is Jesus (Romans 3:23, 24) Who died on a cross for your sins, was buried and raised from the dead (I Corinthians 15:1-4) to forgive all your sins and give you eternal life (John 3:16). Then, keep watching, waiting, working, witnessing for, walking with and worshiping Jesus until He comes or calls you home. Looking forward to seeing you in heaven. Blessings, Doug (6/29/22)

Good morning, blog readers, from sunny and cool (60 degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk, I saw: 19 robins, 12 grackles, 9 blackbirds, 2 crows, 2 dogs, a bunny, a cardinal and a dove! Thank You, Jesus!

This headline, from the AP, should not surprise anyone: “Russian missile strike hits crowded shopping mall in Ukraine.”

In the article, Yuras Karmanau and Francesca Ebel reported: “Russian long-range bombers launched a missile that struck a crowded shopping mall in Ukraine’s central city of Kremenchuk, stoking fears of what President Volodymyr Zelensky called ‘an unimaginable’ number of victims in ‘one of the most daring terrorist attacks in European history.”

Someone once told me years ago, “You can trust a Communist to be a Communist.” Communists do not believe in God. And, as a result, they have no moral compass to follow. And so, they do what they need to do to not only survive, but also to take over the world.

And so, I believe (and I could be wrong) that Russian President, Vladimir Putin will continue to fire his missiles wherever and whenever he wants because he knows the U.S. and NATO are weak and don’t have the courage to take him out. And, as we watch the the U.S. and the European nations continue to throw sanctions on Putin and Russia which, breaking news, are not working, the carnage will continue, that is, until the Lord God Himself takes care of Putin and his buddies, as we read in Ezekiel 38-39. Oh, and just so you know, God will lure Putin and his buddies away from a war, perhaps this war, and take him and his army to Israel where they will be destroyed. Hallelujah!

In addition to the above war, there is the growing threat of a war between Israel and her neighbors which, I believe (and I could be wrong) is prophesied in Psalm 83. This next headline speaks of this threat: “Iran’s Plan to Foil Israeli-Arab Normalization and to Keep Expanding the Revolution.”

Khaled Abu Toameh, of the Gatestone Institute, writes: “When Hamas and Hezbollah talk about ‘developing the program and axis of resistance,’ they are referring to terrorist attacks against Israel. The two terrorist groups have tens of thousands of rockets and missiles that are ready to be fired towards Israel at any moment from the Gaza Strip and Lebanon.” Iranian-American investigative journalist, Lisa Daftari, asks the question: “When will the Biden administration learn that Hezbollah, Hamas, Al-Qaeda, ISIS, and Iran’s regime are all the same?” I am thinking: “Never!”

Yes, dear brothers and sisters in Christ, these are scary, but exciting times which, I believe, will lead up to the return of Christ. So, stay tuned and keep watching, waiting, working, witnessing for, walking with and worshiping Jesus until He comes. And, if you are not a believer in Jesus, please, agree with God you are a sinner who needs a Savior Who is Jesus (Romans 3:23, 24) and believe He died on a cross for your sins, was buried and raised from the dead (I Corinthians 15:1-4) to forgive all your sins and give you eternal life (John 3:16). Blessings on your day with love in Christ, Doug (6/28/22)

Good morning, blog readers, from sunny and cool (57 degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk, I saw: 21 robins, 10 blackbirds, 3 grackles, a bunny, cardinal, a crow, a deer and a dog! Thank You, Jesus!

And Jesus said, in Matthew 24:7, “For nation will rise against nation (check), and kingdom against kingdom (check), and in various places there will be famines and earthquakes (to be checked).

This morning, I saw this headline from Dr. Joseph Mercola: “How Bad Will the Food Shortage Get?”

In his article, Dr. Mercola reports: “It’s becoming increasingly clear that severe food shortages are going to be inevitable, more or less worldwide, and whatever food is available will continue to go up in price. The cost of agricultural inputs such as diesel and fertilizers is skyrocketing due to shortages – caused by a combination of intentional and coincidental events – and those costs will be reflected in consumer food prices come fall and next year.

Mysterious fires, alleged bird flu outbreaks and other inexplicable events are killing off livestock and destroying critical infrastructure. Since the end of April 2021, at least 96 farms, food processing plants and food distribution centers across the U.S. have been damaged or destroyed.

The global food price index had risen 58.5% above the 2014-2016 average as of April 2022, due to a convergence of post-pandemic global demand, extreme weather, tightening food stocks, high energy prices, supply chain bottlenecks, export restrictions, taxes and the Russian-Ukraine conflict. Combined, all of these factors set us up for guaranteed food shortages, food inflation and, potentially, famine in some places, so now is the time to prepare.”

Famine in America? “No way,” you might say, though Yahweh said it is coming, along with earthquakes, the like of which we have yet to see which will also greatly affect life not only around the world, but also here in the USA. So, dearly beloved in Christ, as you prepare for tougher times, you might want to stock up on some food not only for your family, but also for your neighbors as part of your witness for Christ. The apostle Peter reminds us, in I Peter 3:15, to “sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence.”

And, if you are not a believer in Jesus, time is running out! So, please, agree with God you are a sinner who needs a Savior Who is Jesus (Romans 3:23, 24) Who died on a cross for your sins, was buried and raised from the dead (I Corinthians 15:1-4) to forgive all your sins and give you eternal life (John 3:16). And, believe me, you will be eternally grateful! Blessings, Doug (6/27/22)
