Benedict XVI, the former pope who spent years in the Vatican upholding conservative Catholic teaching but who upended centuries of tradition by resigning as pontiff, died Saturday, the Vatican announced. He was 95.

I don't know what tomorrow holds, but I know who holds tomorrow.
Obviously, we have no way of knowing our future; however, as Christians, we know the one who knows--God.

Therefore, it is no surprise that Jesus repeatedly tells...> More December,30 2022

Salvation and glory and power belong to our God, for true and just are his judgments" (Rev. 19:1). We see Hallelujah ܗܠܠܘܝܗ being used as an English word, but historically it’s not — it’s Aramaic/Hebrew. So, the question is — what does this word...> More December,2 2022
Only one life will soon be past; only what's done for Christ will last.
The New Testament author James observes that life is very temporary compared to eternity: "whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away." (James 4:14).
