THE LIFE OF CHRIST

   "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.  The same was in the beginning with God.  All things were made my him; and without him was not anything that was made.  In him was life; and the life was the light of men.  And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not." (John 1: 1-5)


HIS BIRTH:
   "Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us." (Matthew 1: 23)
   "For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord." (Luke 2: 11)


HIS DEATH:
       "Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children." (Luke 23: 28)


HIS RESURRECTION:
   "And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre.  And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.  And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:  and as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?  He is not here, but is risen:  remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee, saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again." (Luke 24: 2-7)


HIS ASCENSION:
   "And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.  And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven." (Acts of the Apostles 1: 9-11)


HIS RETURN:
   "Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him:  and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him.  Even so, Amen." (Revelation 1: 7)
