For God’s Sake: The sinless Christ died so that we could live because he is our Savior
I saw the movie “2001, A Space Odyssey” when it was first released in 1968.

Go ye into all the world
If a poll were taken today, what would be the most important thing anyone could do? The older some of us get, the more we realize what is worth doing is preparing everyone for life after death, without a doubt?
