    THROUGH WEAKNESS AND DEFEAT HE WON A GLORIOUS CROWN;

    HE SATAN'S POWER LAID LOW.

    FOR THEE, HIS CHURCH, FOR THEE!
    "Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her." - Ephesians 5:25
JESUS CHRIST WAS CRUCIFIED, BURIED, AND RESURRECTED FOR US;
Crucified
 to prove that we had really sinned.
Buried
 to prove that He had really died.
Resurrected
 to prove that he was really God.
