“‘“The Lord bless you

the Lord turn his face toward you
and give you peace.”’

The Bible (NIV): Numbers chapter 6 verses 24-26

(The Bible: 1 Corinthians chapter 15 verses 3-4)

He-is-Risen-pic-03

“If Jesus rose from the dead, then you have to accept all that he said; if he didn’t rise from the dead, then why worry about any of what he said? The issue on which everything hangs is not whether or not you like his teaching but whether or not he rose from the dead.”

(Timothy Keller, The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism)

Good Friday

“God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.”

(The Bible: 2 Corinthians chapter 5 verse 21)

“We may not know, we cannot tell,
what pains he had to bear,
but we believe it was for us
he hung and suffered there.”

(Hymn: There is a green hill by Cecil Frances Alexander)
