I was getting ready to close and thought I’d check the thread and there YOU were! Thanks, yorkie. I knew you’d enjoy it! I finally quit posting today because it was just taking too long and I did ask once if anyone else was having trouble. I hope it speeds up soon. It causes double posting sometimes, too!
Have a great ‘rest of the evening’. Its beddy-bye time here! Goodnight yorkie and all!
You should have seen what spell check tried to tell me about beddy-bye.....LOL!
On November 24, 1971, a man known today as D. B. Cooper hijacked a commercial flight between Portland and Seattle by threatening to blow up the plane unless he received $200,000. After landing to receive a ransom, he ordered the plane back into the air. Then the rear stairs of the 727 aircraft were lowered, and he parachuted into the night. He was never captured, and the case is still unsolved. This act hastened the age of airport security in which trust and confidence have been replaced by suspicion and fear. What he did affected us all.
The Bible describes two actions that changed the world in a far more significant way. Through Adams choice, sin and death entered the world, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned (Rom. 5:12). But through Christs sacrifice on the cross, God provided a remedy for the results of sin. Through one mans [Adams] offense judgment came to all men, resulting in condemnation, even so through one Mans [Christs] righteous act the free gift came to all men, resulting in justification of life (v.18).
Christ did what no one else could do when He broke the power of sin and death by His resurrection. He offers forgiveness and eternal life to all who will accept His gift. And for that, we thank Him with all our hearts.
