You will never understand who you are until you understand who God is.

Although we may trust God's promises for life after death and the certainty of a heavenly home, we must still face the reality of death.

And all of a sudden, all of my sins came before me. Everything I had ever done wrong that I had forgotten about years ago came into my mind. And I prayed, Lord, forgive me, may the blood of Jesus Christ cleanse me from all of my sins... not because of my good works or because of all the things I have tried to do, but because the Lord had forgiven me.

Christ alone can bring lasting peace - peace with God - peace among men and nations - and peace within our hearts.

If God were to remove all evil from our world (but somehow leave human beings on the planet), it would mean that the essence of 'humanness' would be destroyed. We would become robots.

It was not the people or the Roman soldiers who put Jesus on the cross - it was your sins and my sins that made it necessary for Him to volunteer His death.

God's grace, quite simply, is God's mercy and goodness toward us.
