As the manna sustained Israel in the wilderness, so God provisions the world with sunshine, rain and the good of the earth. Just and unjust alike thrive on this bounty. But God gives much more. Through his Son grants life in such vigorous, luxuriant supply, death canno...

At Calvary (blood), Christ achieved freedom for mankind; a liberation made true at a point in time; efficient, effective and abiding. It need never be repeated. It issued out of God's good will to men and women. The cross was the enactment in history of love that alwa...
