Therefore, let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God hath made the same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ [Messiah].Acts 2:36
Speaking to a crowd in Jerusalem, the Apostle Peter put it down plain and straight: “Jesus, the one you crucified, is the Messiah!”
Skeptics of Christianity say Jesus wasn’t really the Messiah. All He did was arrange His life to fulfill all the prophecies about the Messiah. About that second part, they’re right! He really did. The only thing is, He arranged it centuries before He was born!
Oh yes…He arranged it all! To God be the glory!
Praise God for His power, His plan, and His control over all things! Truly, nothing is too hard for Him, and His purpose for redemption was fulfilled precisely on time.
Real truth never changes, and the truth about government is that it is God who ordains it, leaders who are responsible for it, and citizens who are accountable to it. The privilege of being called Americans comes with significant responsibilities—to God, to each other, and to the world.
