Women Of The Bible- Mary Magdalene

After celebrating Easter this month, it seems only right to focus on Mary Magdalene, the first person to speak to Jesus after His resurrection! I pray you enjoy my April offering for my series, Women Of The Bible.

But God Raised Jesus From The Dead

Having just celebrated Easter last week, what better "But God" verses are there to focus on than Acts 13:29-30? Praise the Lord for the Resurrection!

But God...Raised Jesus From The Dead

Acts 13:29-30
“When they had carried out all that was written about him, they took him down from the cross and laid him in a tomb. But God raised him from the dead, and for many days he was seen by those who had traveled with him from Galilee to Jerusalem. They are now his witnesses to our people.”

Jesus Is Our Saviour

Having celebrated Easter in the last few days, what better truth to focus on this month than the fact that Jesus is our Saviour!

My Saviour Knew

Every year in the lead up to Good Friday, I see posts on social media mocking Jesus. Many times I’ve come across cartoon drawings or jokes, portraying Jesus as some sort of unknowing simpleton who has no idea what’s about to happen to Him in regards to the Crucifixion.

The Crucifixion of Jesus Christ however, was carefully thought out and planned by God, millenniums before mankind ever existed. Christ’s death was part of God’s plan for man from the very beginning as He knew we would need saving from the consequences of our own sin. As we’re told in Acts 2:23,

“This man was handed over to you by God’s deliberate plan and foreknowledge; and you, with the help of wicked men, put Him to death by nailing Him to the cross.”

There are many Scriptures which show us that Jesus Himself predicted His own death and identified His betrayer Judas, long before Crucifixion Day. To paint Jesus, the Creator of the Universe as oblivious and unaware is, ironically, a very foolish and uninformed thing to do.
