Does the Quran deny the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ because Jesus said "Peace be upon me the day I die"? Let us answer this question.

Quran doesnt deny Crucifixion of Jesus Christ | Part 3 | Salutations on Jesus

At the end of the book of Malachi, the prophet turned the attention from Israel’s spiritual complacency to its future filled with divine promise, the opening to God’s great blessing and restoration. The finale of our 4-part series on Malachi fixes our eyes—along with the Israelites’ eyes—on Jesus’ coming. Chris also discusses our imperative as Christians to stand boldly and instinctively with the Jewish people against antisemitism, particularly in light of the recent terrorist attack that killed two Israeli embassy staff members. May we live fearlessly for the Lord and support and love His Chosen People fervently—today and always!

One day, in the city of David, shadows darken as a cross is raised. Upon which is nailed the last king to come from the line of David. What does God do with us sinners gathering at the foot of the cross? What does God do with us Davids who take and break and sin and suffer?

My sin, oh the bliss, of this glorious thought, my sin not in part but the whole, is nailed to the cross and I bear it no more; praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!

The cross is a sign of truth. It is a sign of our sin, our shortcomings, our situation. And the cross sets us free. But not before shaking us to the core, not before confronting us with the truth.

For the Plot: Part 3, "Endless oil" with Pastor Joy

Elijah climbs the mountain on a hope and a prayer, looking for a theophany. He comes looking for fire, wind, smoke, and earthquake, a decisive declaration of the divine. But he discovers the truth is a cave. Elijah is met by God in the silence.

Elijah delivers more fireworks than all of the other prophets put together, but maybe God speaks in silence to Elijah because Elijah needs to know, needs to learn, that God’s always speaking and always with him.

Even when God seems silent.

Perhaps that’s the reminder for us today as well...

The Truth Is A Cave

David Is Not the Hero, Adam Kohlstrom

If holy and common are opposite, how could God dwell with His people? Through the priests! God used these special Israelites to mediate between God and man, as they provided the people with moral oversight, mediated holiness, formed Israel’s spiritual identity, and taught its covenant with God. This week, we begin a 2-part series on God’s requirements of Israel’s priests and His Chosen People, which shape our understanding of holiness, responsibility, and spiritual leadership. Learn about our calling from our holy God in this week’s broadcast!
