Testimony of Jonny Cambell

My name is Jonny Campbell and 3 years ago, when I was 12 I became a born again Christian! Here’s my story…

I grew up in a non-Christian home although my granny is a Christian, she took me to church with her most Sundays and I was a regular member of Sunday school, BB type groups and youth groups. I had always called myself a Christian yet really deep down I did not know Jesus as my own saviour.

By the time I got to secondary school I had got into the wrong company, left Sunday school and was living a life foe myself. However I still attended my BB style group “the Caravaners” in the Nazarene church and would call myself a Christian to most adults.

When I was 12 I was in a classroom when a Christian teacher asked about who were Christians a mate of mine said, “yea Jonny’s a Christian” This made me really embarrassed but yet left me wondering about all the childhood Sunday school classes and Bible camps I used to attend. God was bringing to my memory the gospel I had learned. It’s true when God said, “So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.” (Isaiah 55:11) The gospel seed planted in me years ago was starting to grow; I decided to go to the Whitwell Church where I had gone with my granny as a boy. ? I went there for a week or two and one Sunday night in July 2004 I gave my life over to Jesus Christ.

Since then my life has been totally changed. I have been saved from death, Hell, the power of sin and one day the very presence of sin! I have been given the greatest power/privilege to become a child of God “Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God” (John 1:12) Jesus Christ has given to me a life, a life full of passion, excitement and joy but I must never depart from the fact that he took my punishment on the cross of calvary. “He took my sins and my sorrows, he made them his very own. He bore the burden to Calvary and suffered and died alone”

Jesus Christ has saved me – he can do the same for you!

Medical theories on the cause of death in crucifixion Matthew W Maslen and Piers D Mitchell

INTRODUCTION Crucifixion may be defined as a method of execution by which a person is hanged, usually by their arms, from a cross or similar structure until dead. It has been used in many parts of the world and in many time periods; but is perhaps best known today as a cruel method of social control and punishment in the Roman Empire around 2000 years ago 1 (pp 22-3). In modern times, the medical profession has shown considerable interest in crucifixion. The typical aim of articles by this group has been to determine how crucified individuals actually died; and they often focus on the case of Jesus of Nazareth. Since Stroud's book of 1847, 2 at least 10 different theories have been proposed ( Table 1 ), and many more articles have been published suggesting various combinations of these theories. The 10 examples referenced in Table 1 have been chosen merely as representing the wide difference of opinion in the published literature: it is not an exhaustive lis

What is TULIP in Calvinism? by Matt Slick

The TULIP of Calvinism is the acronym which represents the five primary points which represent Calvinism : Total depravity, Unconditional election, Limited atonement, Irresistible grace, and Perseverance of the saints. Hence, they are called the five points of Calvinism. The five points "emerged from the Synod of Dort (1618– 19)." 1 "The system of Calvinism adheres to a very high view of scripture and seeks to derive its theological formulations based solely on God’s word. It focuses on God’s sovereignty, stating that God is able and willing by virtue of his omniscience, omnipresence, and omnipotence, to do whatever He desires with His creation. It also maintains that within the Bible are the following teachings: That God, by His sovereign grace predestines people into salvation; that Jesus died only for those predestined; that God regenerates the individual where he is then able and wants to c
