“To-morrow comes, true copy of to-day,And empty shadow of what is to be;Yet cheated Hope on future still depends,And ends but only when our being ends.” StillsEndsDependsShadowEmptyCopiesCheatedMorrow Book:Delphi Complete Works of John Clare (Illustrated) Source: Delphi Complete Works of John Clare (Illustrated)
“I would argue that the truth of Easter does not depend on whether there was an empty tomb, or whether anything happened to the body of Jesus. ... I do not see the Christian tradition as exclusively true, or the Bible as the unique and infallible revelation of God. ... It makes no historical sense to say, 'Jesus was killed for the sins of the world.' ... I am one of those Christians who does not believe in the virgin birth, nor in the star of Bethlehem, nor in the journeys of the wisemen, nor in the shepherds coming to the manger, as facts of history.” WorldBelieveDoeFactsBodyChristianJesusStarsSinHappenedJourneyDependsBirthUniqueTraditionEmptyHistoricalArguingRevelationsVirginsEasterTombsShepherdsInfallibleBethlehemVirgin Birth Author:Marcus Borg
