Blanket CreekMark 14:61-62 takes place after the Lords Supper. Here He is asking His disciples to watch while He went to pray. Instead they fell asleep. Jesus knew what was coming for Him. He could have avoided it, but because of God’s love for us he died so us sinners could live.

LIFE IN THE COLE BIN

FAITH & VALUES

Blanket CreekJohn 8:12 says “I am the light of the world. He who follows me will not walk in darkness, but have the light of life. If you were asked “Are you saved?,” how would you answer?  If you say I don’t know for sure or I hope so you are walking in darkness.

LIFE IN THE COLE BIN

By Burton W. Cole “No, no, no!” My tormentor, er, teacher seemed a tad irritated. “It’s hold down the command and shift keys together, then, without letting go of them, you press that key, THEN, this key. After that is when you hit the ampersand. It’s so simple.”I felt sorry for the kid.
