Two weeks ago we looked at the testimony made to Jesus’ deity through His trial. Then last week we studied Jesus’ own statements about His deity. And we took note of other things which Jesus said and did, which are indirect statement about His deity. This...

If you were able to take an historical electro-magnet and pull every fragment of Jesus Christ out of human society, how much different would the world be today? From what date do most of the world’s calendars mark time? By what Name do most blasphemers curse?...

This morning we’ll try to finish up the prophecies about the death, burial and resurrection of Christ. Thus far we’ve notice that He would be betrayed by a friend. It was prophesied that Christ would be sold for how many pieces of silver? What then would...
