What a great infographic (samples above) from Yingyanhuang.com, which explains:

The four Gospels—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—collectively tell the story of Jesus Christ. Each of the Gospels is distinct and places emphasis on a unique aspect of Jesus’ life. By viewing them in harmony as one complete account, we can gain greater insights about the life of Christ, from the birth and preparation of Jesus Christ, to His message and ministry, and finally His death and resurrection.

Why not check out some other Bible-based infographics in the site gallery. Great work…

Christian Comics 3: This was your life

I just read this Christian comic (or Tract) over at Chick Publications. It’s quite a powerful comic showing what happens when a man dies and stands before the Judgement throne of God.

The tract is littered with some very appropriate Bible verses ranging from Matthew, John, Galatians, 2 Peter and, of course, Revelation. The design also gives a glimpse into what lies beyond, showing the LORD on His Throne, Angels and Hell (all speculative renderings, but based on the Biblical-texts).

The Author of this comic, Jack T. Chick, has done a fantastic job of conveying the importance of not ignoring a call from our LORD Jesus. It serves as a warning, and like many other evangelistic-massages seem to avoid; point out that Hell is a literal place, so this teaching must be given.

Christian Cartoons #1: Church Mice

I love cartoons, especially when talented Christians make ones that are informative―by educating viewers about Christian issues in good humour. Below are 10 great Church Mice cartoons I have selected from Karl Zorowski’s Church Mice website.

This is the first in a series of Christian Cartoons I will promote on this site. If you know of any other great ones, please tell me about them in the comments section below, thanks! Now, here are the comic strips, enjoy…

Christian Comics 2: Reverend Fun

Reverend Fun is a wonderfully-funny Christian comic strip design series by a talented, yet seemingly nameless illustrator/s (or GCU, INC.). On their site, there are hundreds of these comics to look at, with each one corresponding to a particular Bible verse or passage. Prepare to laugh if you have a sense of humour 😉

John 3:16 – The Gospel In A Nutshell – Repost

John 3:16 is probably the most searched for Biblical verse ever. Why? Because it encompasses as much hope and security as one could get squeezed into one verse. I have adapted this “Gospel in a Nutshell” to fit the ESV (English Standard Version) of the Bible. I like the ESV, as it offers word-for-word accurate translation of God’s Holy Word—and easier to understand than the King James Version.

John 3:16

For God (the greatest Giver)

so loved (the greatest motive)

the world (the greatest need),

that He gave (the greatest act)

His only Son (the greatest gift),

that whosoever (the greatest invitation)

believes (the greatest decision)

in Him (the greatest Person)

*believes in Him (the greatest opportunity)

should not perish (the greatest deliverance),

but (the greatest difference)

have (the greatest certainty)

eternal life (the greatest possession).

If you are already a Christian, this John 3:16 message can strengthen your faith. However, if you are still unsaved, this message could be the start of a great journey for you. Please note that believing in God is easy (even the devil believes in God!), but believing IN HIM is not just a belief that He exists. No. It is accepting Jesus as LORD and Saviour, repenting of your sins, living by His Commandments, trusting in Him and having a special relationship with Him.

If you would like a more detailed explanation of each part of John 3:16, please visit the original article that featured this “Nutshell” at Buy the Truth Blog. If you would like more information on the Gospel of Jesus, and how to be saved, please visit Gotquestions. God bless!

10 Fantastic and Funny Church Signs

I really enjoy seeing Funny Church Signs. The Bible states:

Proverbs 15:30

A cheerful look brings joy to the heart, and good news gives health to the bones.

I think it’s a great thing that some Churches have broken-free from self-imposed religious-constraints of old—and given humour a chance to spread the Gospel of Jesus within their churches.

I have selected 10 fantastic examples of funny Church Signage from across the globe for your pleasure. I especially like the “Caution, Exposure to the Son may prevent Burning”. Quite original I believe…

10 Great Design References in the Bible

Many Christians say that it would be great to be a carpenter—because you’d be following in the footsteps of Jesus. Well, that’s true, I don’t deny this of course. However, I say that it’s great to be a Designer—and follow in the steps of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit—the greatest designer ever (carpentry and much, much more)!

After all, He created the Heaven and the Earth, people, animals and everything else. Because of this, I wondered where the word ‘design’ and ‘designer’ was mentioned in the Holy Bible. Well, it happens to be 10 times (in the NIV). Here they are for reference with links to the passages on BibleGateway. Enjoy…

1

Ezekiel 43:11

…and if they are ashamed of all they have done, make known to them the design of the temple—its arrangement, its exits and entrances—its whole design and all its regulations and laws. Write these down before them so that they may be faithful to its design and follow all its regulations.

2

2 Chronicles 24:13

The men in charge of the work were diligent, and the repairs progressed under them. They rebuilt the temple of God according to its original design and reinforced it.

3

Acts 17:29

“Therefore since we are God’s offspring, we should not think that the divine being is like gold or silver or stone—an image made by man’s design and skill.

4

1 Kings 7:8

And the palace in which he was to live, set farther back, was similar in design. Solomon also made a palace like this hall for Pharaoh’s daughter, whom he had married.

5

Exodus 35:35 He has filled them with skill to do all kinds of work as craftsmen, designers, embroiderers in blue, purple and scarlet yarn and fine linen, and weavers—all of them master craftsmen and designers.

6

Exodus 38:23

…with him was Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan—a craftsman and designer, and an embroiderer in blue, purple and scarlet yarn and fine linen.)

7

Exodus 31:4

…to make artistic designs for work in gold, silver and bronze,

8 (same as previous, but different passage)

Exodus 35:32

…to make artistic designs for work in gold, silver and bronze,

9

2 Chronicles 2:14

…whose mother was from Dan and whose father was from Tyre. He is trained to work in gold and silver, bronze and iron, stone and wood, and with purple and blue and crimson yarn and fine linen. He is experienced in all kinds of engraving and can execute any design given to him. He will work with your craftsmen and with those of my Lord…

10

2 Chronicles 26:15

In Jerusalem he made machines designed by skillful men for use on the towers and on the corner defenses to shoot arrows and hurl large stones. His fame spread far and wide, for he was greatly helped until he became powerful.

Do you follow in the footsteps of Jesus ‘in the design realm’? If so, what do you do. I’d like to hear from you in the comments section below. God Bless…
