I’m not a Christian, but I do at least have a passing familiarity with its tenets. One would expect journalists to have the same.

‘One would expect journalists to have the same.’

they have the same knowledge you do; they choose to mute it in order to push their vision...which of course anyone with an agenda will do...

I’m not a Christian

On this, The Most Holy Of Christians Holidays", I invite you to get to know Jesus and gain salvation so you can have eternal life. There is but one way to eternal life, and that is through faith in Christ Jesus.

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God." John 3:16-18


You never know what the future holds, if you should go out your door today and a drunk driver, or just a car with bad brakes should careen of it's path and kill you, you eternal life will be lost and you will be separated from the One true God, the One who created you, the one all human hearts desire to be with.

See, every human has been hot wired with a special faith component to our souls, even agnostics and atheists have faith in what they believe. Another way to explain this would be to say we have all been created with an addiction gene. It's that ever yearning desire to find something that will make us feel like we belong, or comfortable in our own skin if you will.

From the moment we become conscious of our self, we begin searching for that One Thing our soul craves. For each of us it could be a different point in life. Some find it when they are 10, some at 14, and yet others may take years before they find it, even into their 90s or on their deathbed. Sadly, most humans never find it until it's much, much too late. However, each and everyone of us are in search of it, even though we don't realize it.

This search could take us on journeys far from home and away from loved ones, or it could consist of a life long search in the little town we were born and never leave from. As we search we will go through trials and tribulations from thinking we found it just to realize, that for which we search for has yet to be found. So we try to fill that empty cold spot with things like drugs, alcohol, sex, eating, television, work, money, shopping, and sports. We will go from one addiction to another, never feeling as fulfilled or satisfied as we were created to feel.

Not until we find the One True God of the Universe, our Creator, our Father, will we stop searching. That's because God wanted us to be addicted to Him. Sadly, the vast majority of humans will spend their life addicted to the wrong things. Only when we find Christ Jesus, will we truly be free of the addictions the world has to offer.

I pray you take Him up on His offer for salvation. I pray for all the lost and today I pray you will find it in Christ Jesus, the one we celebrate today, for rising from the death that proves their is life after death.
