Praise Jesus He is Risen

Matthew 27:50-53
And when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit. At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook and the rocks split. The tombs broke open and the bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life. They came out of the tombs, and after Jesus' resurrection they went into the holy city and appeared to many people.(NIV)


Today is the day we celebrate the Resurrection of our precious lord Jesus the Christ. Really I think we celebrate our salvation every day or we should, but today is a great day to spend time with our loved ones and honor the selfless acts of our wonderful Lord. Some may argue about the date, there is no point in that. The lord is pleased when we praise him.

Here are some Bible verses I like:


Matthew 28:1-10
After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb. There was a violent earthquake, for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the tomb, rolled back the stone and sat on it. His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow. The guards were so afraid of him that they shook and became like dead men.

The angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. Then go quickly and tell his disciples: 'He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.' Now I have told you."

So the women hurried away from the tomb, afraid yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples. Suddenly Jesus met them. "Greetings," he said. They came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped him. Then Jesus said to them, "Do not be afraid. Go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee; there they will see me." (NIV)


John 11:25-26 (King James Version)

25Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:

26And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?

A quick note from Christian Jim about Britney Spears and Anna Nicole Smith

I just want to say that all of this publicity about Britney Spears is going way too far. No matter what you may think of how provocative her videos and actions may have been. This girl needs help and Prayer not these paparazzi in her face making it worse. I for one will spare a moment in my prayer to add Britney Spears and anna nicole smith and their family also.

Now I realize this may not be of huge importance to the Christian community, but when we see a soul in trouble is it not our duty to ask the lord to help that individual?


Thanks and GOD Bless!

Ray Boltz The Anchor Holds Great Christian Strength

Hello all just a quick post to anyone going through trials and tribulations right now please check out this post on my christian music Blog. It's great song and video I got from youtube. This song helps me to pull through when I am feeling weak, The emotion the profession of Faith. To be hold on in the face of the storm, To ride it out even though the pain and loss can seem extreme. There is only one true way to make it through times like that. Through our Faith in our Heavenly Father and his Son who died so that we might live Jesus. Praise be to our Lord and savior Jesus. May we be filled with the Holy Spirit so we can witness to the many in need.


Great Ray Boltz Song


Thank You All and God Bless!

Sylvester Stallone Christian or What?

"There's a point where the body stops and inner strength begins.It really begins from the soul - from God." Sylvester Stallone


I know for some this may be old news. I still think it is pretty interesting. I am impressed that some celebrities are now finally openly discussing their faith. This outlet can have the power to bring many more to see the glory of our God.

I do believe that some of Hollywood is bearing false witness as a marketing ploy, but when it come to Stallone I believe he has been touched by Christ's glory and has found his faith again.


Rocky Balboa's Sylvester Stallone talks about his faith


What do you think?

If you look at the Rocky franchise there really is a positive message of faith. Some leaders have even started using the films as teaching tools.

Persecution all over the world for Christianity

India: Hindu Villagers Beat, Expel Christian Families

This is a great example of the direction of today's world. Our faith has brought us through this before and will indeed again. The enemy gets stronger everyday though. The faith and dedication to the lord in the face of such persecution by these two families and the others all over the world should be seen as an inspiration.

Please ask the lord to be with these families and the other persecuted Christians in this world.

I feel Christianity should unite we all need to get past the little arguments over denomination whose Lutheran, Methodist, Catholic or any other denomination, does it really matter? We all play for the same team. Now is the time for unity in the Christian community. The enemy gets stronger everyday we need all the resources we can muster to battle his influences in this world.


Put on the full armour of your God. Get the word out to your friends and family that are not saved of his glorious gifts. I don't mean belittle or pressure people, let them know about the benefits, let them see his glory. Let them know that through Christs selfless acts we all have the opportunity to be saved. Once given this information let them work it out with themselves and the Lord, answer any questions they may have, realize it has to be a decision a person comes to on their own. We are all sinners that can all unite to make this world and the next a better place.


Romans 8:31-39
What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. Who is he that condemns? Christ Jesus, who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? As it is written: " For your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered." No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
