All-though Jesus’s ministry was for only 3 ½ years, it had the greatest impact, then any other event in all of history. Jesus was approachable, & kind, LOVE was the motivation, for everything That Jesus did. Jesus spend his ministry , telling the people of the kingdom, healing the sick, expelling demons, & in some cases raising some from the dead. (Rev. 21:3,4) Giving us a glimpse of what is yet to come. Jesus said I am the resurrection, & the life. He that exercises’ faith in me, though he dies, will come back to life (John 11:25) May the God of all comfort give you refuge, & strength, in your most difficult time. (2 Cor. 1:3,4). Love was the reason for the ransom sacrifice, showing the great love that Jehovah & Jesus had for all of mankind. (John 3:16) What a wonderful gift we have been giving, to have the hope of seeing our loved ones once again.
