Words of Comfort: How did Judas die? — www.onthebox.us

Words of Comfort: How did Judas die? — www.onthebox.us: "“How did Judas die--did he hang himself, or did he fall headlong and his bowels gushed out?”
He hung himself, and not surprisingly his still-hanging decomposed body in time fell to the earth, and split open. There is no contradiction."

4 Lessons for Evangelism Across Economic Boundaries — thegospelcoalition.org

4 Lessons for Evangelism Across Economic Boundaries — thegospelcoalition.org: "Let's be honest. When churches talk about "reaching out across socioeconomic boundaries," they are talking about middle class (and wealthier) people reaching out to poorer folks.

I don't know, maybe they should."

Simple Evangelism in the Church — thegospelcoalition.org

Simple Evangelism in the Church — thegospelcoalition.org: "Jesus said, “By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another” (John 13:35). Loving one another in the body of Christ has many benefits. Two that regularly come to mind are the glory it gives to God and the way it affects the church. However, one of the primary benefits of loving one another is what it declares before a watching world. One of our most potent instruments we have for effective evangelism is Christians loving each other well.  I am “living” proof."
