*Rapture*
THE TALKING TREE

READ:
1 PETER 2:24
_______________________________________________________
“He Himself bore
our sins” in his
body on the cross.
_______________________________________________________

One of the earliest Christian poems in English literature is “The Dream of the Rood.” The word rood comes from the Old English word rod or pole and refers to the cross on which Christ was crucified. In this ancient poem the crucifixion story Is retold from the perspective of the cross.

When the tree learns that it is to be used to kill the Son of God causing sin to enter the human race. And when the Son of Go shed His blood as the ultimate sacrifice for all of humanity’s sin, He was nailed to a tree on our behalf. Christ for salvation. And ever since the crucifixion, it has become a remarkable symbol that represents the sacrificial death of the Son of God for our deliverance from sin and death. The cross is the inexpressibly wonderful evidence of God’s love for us.
_______________________________________________________

Lord, may my heart give You praise whenever I see a cross,
for You gave Yourself for me in love.

**Christ gave His life on the tree for our salvation.

****************Today’s Bible Reading __ Colossians 1:15-20******************
15 The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn
over all creation. 16 For in him all things were created:
things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible,
whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all
things have been created through hm and for him. 17 He is
before all things, and in him all things hold together. 18 And he
is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and
the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he
might have the supremacy. 19 For God was pleased to have all
his fullness dwell in hm, 20 and through him to reconcile to
himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven,
by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>INSIGHT<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Some experts in New Testament studies
suspect that the poetic structure and inspiring thought of
Colossians 1:15-20 reflect the lyrics of a first-century song of
worship. Paul must have often sung about Jesus, the Peacemaker
who changed his life by returning good for evil when He bore
the sins of the world. Do you have anyone you would consider
an enemy? If so, you probably know why Jesus’s example stands
in such contrast to our normal human inclinations. The God who
created and sustains the cosmos is the same God who chose to
reconcile Himself to His enemies. Rather than turning on those
who have done such evil to Him, our resurrected Creator reached
out to say, I still love you. Come to me. Trust me, and I will forgive
you and adopt you into my eternal family.

Hi. Thank you mlg. It’s nice to be thought of especially in this horrific time of my life. I’ll try to post the “Our Daily Bread again.” I’m not doing well. I’ve lost my chlldren to what I now have discovered is a jezebell spirit. One of the nastiest, vilest. I no longer have any contact with my children because my husband is under this spirits influence. I am in pain daily. My stomach hurts all the time. I’m praying for the truth to be revealed and that my husband would wake up. Pray. Pray . Pray. and if you are connected with others have them praying too.
