June 29, 2007

Good morning! The Good News of Jesus Christ shines through us today. In searching for what Newsweek would have us know about Jesus, it seems that we are to know the artist who painted the most famous of the images of Christ in 1940, but that is it. I don't think that will come as a surprise to anyone; that is about what we have come to expect from the secular news. The better news is that image has been reproduced a billion times. It seems that people, and that means us, want the image of Christ on their walls and I am glad to hear that! For your trivia collection, that image was made from an oil painting by Warner Sallman in 1940, right about then the world needed an image of Christ for its comfort I should think.

The secular world cannot hide the Good News, even when it doesn't realize it! Another fact dug up in the 180 things you need to know; Jesus has never been named in the title of a best seller. I don't think our Lord will lose any sleep over that, and we already know the secular world hates Christ. The Bible, the word of Jesus, still outsells everything else in literature. Let the glory of the Lord shine above this world!

Go forth in Jesus name today!
