Grant Steidl

A very unusual election took place nearly 2,000 years ago. The venue was the judgment hall of a proud but pathetic Roman governor called Pilate. Pilate said to them, “Whom do you want me to release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?’

“Behold The Lamb Of God Who Takes Away The Sin Of The World.”

Alan Crosby

Mary was told by the angel Gabriel that she was going to become pregnant by the power of the Holy Spirit. In time John went into the wilderness, where the Word of God came to him.

Justification – God Declares A Person Righteous

Alfred Bouter

Something God Has Done

Paul Alberts
