From Gary... Feelings, Facts and the FUTURE!!!


Things happen; feelings change- this is a fact of life. We sign contracts, make verbal and written agreements of all kinds, because if we agree to do something "if we feel like it", then who would ever put their trust in us.

For those who call themselves Christians, we trust in the historical facts. Jesus was a real person, who lived, died and rose again. 

Here a reiteration of the facts, so that we all might remember...

1 Corinthians, Chapter 15 (WEB)
 1 Now I declare to you, brothers, the Good News which I preached to you, which also you received, in which you also stand,  2 by which also you are saved, if you hold firmly the word which I preached to you—unless you believed in vain. 3 For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,  5 and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve.  6 Then he appeared to over five hundred brothers at once, most of whom remain until now, but some have also fallen asleep.  7 Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles,  8 and last of all, as to the child born at the wrong time, he appeared to me also.

Christianity is a religion of FACT!!! Unlike every other so called religion- our founder (Jesus) rose from the dead and is ALIVE!!!

Today might be a good, bad or even TERRIBLE, but the FACT REMAINS THAT BECAUSE JESUS LIVES, WE HAVE HOPE OF ETERNAL LIFE!!!

And no matter how I "FEEL" today, that HOPE WILL NEVER CHANGE!!!!
