It is impossible to believe anything into existence. The gospel did not come into being because men believed it...The fact always precedes the faith.

Think about the holes children make when they dig in the sand on the seashore. When the waves come in, the holes are swallowed up by the ocean. Similarly, when we know Christ, our physical death is overwhelmed by the love and grace of God. Death is swallowed up in the victory of Christ.

As a Christian I have hope not just for this life but for Heaven and the life to come. And many of those people who died this past week are in Heaven right now. And they wouldn't want to come back it's so glorious and so wonderful. And that's the hope for all of us who put our faith in God. I pray that you will have this hope in your heart.

You're born. You suffer. You die. Fortunately, there's a loophole.

The only place we can find a clear, unmistakable message is in the Word of God, which we call the Bible.

Suffering can give us opportunities to witness. The world is a gigantic hospital nowhere is there a greater chance to see the peace and joy of the Lord than when the journey though the valley is the darkest.
