That verse is very important to us, or should be, because in a way, one could base ... bottom. The reason it had to have been God is that no one would be capable of tearing it from the top.

God loved the world so much that He did this for us though. We should all acknowledge the fact that is the reason for the crucifiction. This little message actually means a whole lot to me. I feel ...
- 7792: Strengths and Weaknesses of the Roman Catholic Religion in Modern Society
- ... Modern Society The Christian religion, like all other religions has its strengths and weaknesses in our modern society.

In the following stanza, "And straight the Sun was flecked with bars," the perspective is that of a prisoner looking to the outside world the sailors are imprisoned, both in life and in the ocean.

- 7794: Three Important Qualities Of Christ's Life
- ... very important. That verse shows that Jesus had (and still does) mercy and compassion for us. Another verse that shows that God's love as apparent is John 3:16, "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that who believes in him will not perish but have everlasting life.". He has so much love for us that he even gives us life. He could just ... who fears them. If they did not pity us and have mercy on us we would not be alive. They would have let us die by now.

Investors are looking for unique companies in every area "from the educational toy market to a company that manufactures products for industrial cleaning just as long as the family really believes in their company, and they feel passionately about it."

When a company like Heritage Partners can come in and save a potential death of a company from any certain situation, it becomes a win-win position. Unlike the old days with the ... Many sole business owners are of the entrepreneurial background and may have even built their company from the ground up. These people have to be hard working people with the strength to go into the world and create something like a business and nurse it into success.
