Imagine...

Imagine there's no Yahweh
Imagine if you can;
There'd be no earth or planets
No animals or man

Imagine there's no Jesus
If that's what you want to do;
Then what are our years for,
Christmas, Easter too?

Imagine there's no religion
Life still wouldn't be fair
War would still rage around us
People wouldn't care!

Progressions in Christ's miracles

In the Boat:

1st time - Jesus is in the boat with Peter
2nd time - the Lord is asleep in the boat
3rd time - Jesus not in the boat during the storm - ended with Peter walking on water

Took more faith each time!

Death:

1st - Jairus' daughter newly dead
2nd - widow's son - put on cart
3rd - Lazarus decomposing in the grave

Death gives way to Christ! Christ is 'Death of death and Hell's Destruction'

Christ repeats the same miracles time and again!

Greatest repeat is Christ:

He is Adam repeated - Man as man should be. Christians are joined to the perfect, ideal man. Are found sinless IN Him.

In Adam - Death
In Christ - Life, knowing God.

In Adam - Banishment
In Christ - Nearness to God

In Adam - Condemnation
In Christ - Vindication

In Adam - Curse
In Christ - Blessing

In Adam - Judgement
In Christ - Deliverance

In Adam - Shame
In Christ - Glory

In Adam - Poverty
In Christ - Riches of grace

In Adam - Defeat
In Christ - Victory

In Adam - Sorrow
In Christ - Joy

In Adam - Weakness
In Christ - His Strength

In Adam - Enmity
In Christ - Friendship

In Adam - Bondage
In Christ - Liberty
