1 Corinthians 15:20... - 04/08/07 02:37 PM

Dear bws,
I came across this scripture. {But the fact is that Christ did acturally rise from the dead, and has become the first of millions who will come back to life again some day.}
Now this strengthens faith. Don't you think?
Ciao for now,
B. Rose

Hi, Celtic: You will find a reference to this in Luke 16: Abraham's Bosom (story of Lazarus) as it was referred to.

Ephesians 4:20 - God is able to do far more than we would ever dare to ask or even dream of--infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, or hopes.

Peace and hope - the encouragement of The Gospel.

I believe when we are looking for answers, we can be fed by the Word of God. I looked for help and encouragement and I felt like God wanted me to read this and share it:

Psalms 41: 1-3

How blessed is he who considers the helpless;
The Lord will deliver him in a day of trouble.

The Lord will protect him, and keep him alive.
And he shall be called blessed upon the earth.

And do not give him over to the desire of his enemies,
The Lord will sustain him upon his sickbed;

In his illness, Thou dost restore him to health.
