His own ' yet they would not accepr Him
He was punished for their sins.'
Innocence was no protection.'

Amen, thank God for the gift and a man willing to submit his will to the will of God. He made all the difference in the life we have while here on earth. Thanks for sharing His message, my friend. Bill
