Ezekiel 5-7 Jerusalem Will Be Destroyed 5 “And you, O son of man, take a sharp sword. Use it as a barber’s razor and pass it over your head and your beard.

Lamentations 1-2 How Lonely Sits the City 1 How lonely sits the city    that was full of people!How like a widow has she become,    she who was great among the nations!She who was a princess among the provinces    has become a slave. 2 She weeps bitterly in the night,    with tears on her cheeks;among all her lovers    she has none to comfort her;all her friends have…

Now if Christ is proclaimed as raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? 1 Corinthians 15:12-34 For every Christian, suffering in this life is a given. It is important to note that we can have hope in our suffering only if there is an afterlife,…
