[quote:Anonymous Coward 10554867:MV8xNzQ3MzcxXzI5NTc1MDQzX0E1NjJFQzk4] [color=red][b]One day some parents brought their children to Jesus so he could touch and bless them. But the disciples scolded the parents for bothering him. Mar 10:14 When Jesus saw what was happening, he was angry with his disciples. He said to them, "Let the children come to me. Don't stop them! For the Kingdom of God belongs to those who are like these children. Mar 10:15 I tell you the truth, anyone who doesn't receive the Kingdom of God like a child will never enter it." Mar 10:16 Then he took the children in his arms and placed his hands on their heads and blessed them. [/b][/color] http://www.blueletterbible.org/Bible.cfm?b=Mar&c=10&v=1&t=NLT [color=blue][b] Jesus Christ died for the sins of the whole world. God loves us all in Him. We are His children. I've shared how i was 'born again' when i was just 22 years old. Not too long after that on one particular Sunday afternoon I had no place to go so I decided to visit the base chapel. An evangelist was giving a talk. I thought I would go to listen. The talk seemed rather typical and commonplace, nothing new or surprising. Afterwards, however, the congregation was invited to divide into three groups. Group one would ask God to forgive them of all of their wrong doing and accept Jesus as Lord and Savior. Group two would dedicate their lives, talents, skills, and resources to the glory of God. Group three would pray for the baptism of the Holy Spirit. Well, I thought,”I have already done one and two, I will pray for the Baptism of the Holy Spirit." I had not even heard of it at the time but it sounded exciting enough to try. The evangelist prayed with groups one and two first. Then she came to me. She asked me to repent of anything dealing with the occult. I said I only did the Ouiji Board when I was young but that was enough for her to request a prayer of repentance which I did. Then she said, “When I place my hands on you, you will receive the Holy Spirit.” Well, I knew the Spirit was inside of me because of the infilling, and wonderful revelations I had. But, I was not about to argue with an evangelist at the altar. So, I agreed. When she placed her hands on my head my whole chest seemed to open up and power began to fill me. Again the revelations came: “This is the “Stuff” that raised Jesus from the dead, Someone filled with this could never die, This is the power that heals, the Holy Spirit is alive and filling me, He is separate and distinct from me, How wrong the disbelievers are, People filled with this ascend to heaven.” I was overjoyed – even “intoxicated” like as described in the Book of Acts. To say I was overjoyed is actually an understatement. I was euphoric! I couldn’t believe God would touch someone like me. I went straight to my room to be alone with God and this amazing feeling I had. I lay on my bed and began to pray. Suddenly, this rapid-fire language I had never learned, studied, or heard before began to rocket out of my mouth directly to the throne of God. In it was a complaint for all of the abuse I suffered as a child. My spirit was speaking directly to Spirit and I knew without any doubt that he was listening. I had been given the baptism of the Holy Spirit and the Gift of Tongues. The generosity of God was astounding me. All because I had turned from sin and promised “to be good.” This was all just about nine months after I first found Jesus and almost 30 years ago. I have learned so much since then and have so much more to say. If you haven’t said that prayer to Jesus yet, NOW would be a good time to shut your eyes and say, “Yes, Jesus, do for me what you have been doing for millions of others since you first walked this earth.” Let us pray "The Saint's Prayer": Thank you Jesus for taking over my whole heart. Thank you Jesus for taking over my whole soul. Thank you Jesus for taking over my whole mind. Thank you Jesus for taking over my whole life. I forgive everone who ever hurt me in my life right up until this momement. Thank you for baptizing me in your Holy Spirit. Thank you for protecting me and my life in your most precious blood. Thank you now for giving me eternal life. Thank you Lord Jesus. Amen and Amen. [/b][/color] [/quote]

So it has been over 2000 years and the topic
is still Jesus Christ. He was announced, He lived, He was
murdered but He rose again and ascended into Heaven. In
all of this God reveals how much He loves the world.
:hj9:
John 3:16
"For God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life."
