There is a very interesting picture of the two paths of human eternal destiny. They can be seen on the three crosses of Calvary. The imagery of salvation and damnation can be seen through two thieves crucified with Christ on Good Friday.
This episode explores how what played out on Calvary two thousand years applies to every human, past, present and future.
For centuries, well into the 1700s, March 25th was celebrated as New Year’s Day. But why March 25th?
