♰ WOW! 😮
Another Easter 2026 wonderful Phenomenon/Testimony; NASA Astronaut
Reid Wiseman: "When I returned from Space, I saw THE CROSS
& broke down in tears after 'Other Worldly' experience".
"I'm not really a
religious person, but there was just no other avenue for me to
explain anything..."
His crewmate Victor Glover
added: "The only thing I would add is I am a religious person,
but everything else is the same."
What does this say about
the power of perspective from above? Has a moment of awe like that
ever changed how you see life or faith?
Chapter: Expulsion of Jews and Christians from the Arabian Peninsula
(21)
“It has been narrated by 'Umar b. al-Khattib that he heard the
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
say: I will expel the Jews and Christians from the Arabian Peninsula
and will not leave any but Muslim.”
The origin of houses
discovered in the 1990s on an island near Abu Dhabi remained a
mystery, until a recent discovery.
Archaeologists
uncovered a plaster cross from 1,400 years ago in a courtyard.
Experts said the cross’
location prove the cluster of houses were once connected to the
local monastery.
Christian
populations were more common in what is now the United Arab Emirates
around the sixth century A.D. Eventually, however, the genocidal
Islamic Jihad started to exterminate Christians
and take hold and dominated the religious environment in the
seventh century.
Archaeologists working at
Abu Dhabi’s Sir Bani Yas Island uncovered the artifact that
features a stepped pyramid representing Golgotha, where Christians
believe Jesus was crucified, and leaves sprouting from its base.
It was found among the ruins
of a church and monastery, suggesting a Christian community
flourished on the island during the seventh and eighth centuries.
Christianity during this
period was typically associated with the Levant, Mesopotamia and
parts of Europe, making the discovery of a thriving community on a
southeastern Arabian Gulf island both unexpected and historically
significant.
At the same time, the region
was undergoing profound religious change as Islam was rising and
spreading rapidly across Arabia, while older pagan traditions
lingered and Christianity was thought to be fading.
However, the presence of a
flourishing Christian settlement here challenges that assumption.
Maria Gajewska, lead
archaeologist at the site, said: 'Every element of the cross
incorporates regional motifs.
'It tells us that
Christianity in this region was not only present but flourished,
adapting visually to its local context. We had settlements of
Christians that were not just existing but were clearly thriving.'
The 1,400-year-old cross was
unearthed in Abu Dhabi, suggesting Christianity spread much farther
than previously believed

The cross is about 10.6
inches long, 6.7 inches wide, and roughly 0.8 inches thick.
Archaeologists believe it
could have been an object of veneration and placed on a wall with
worshippers kneeling before it.
Evidence of a church and
monastery on Sir Bani Yas, dating to the seventh and eighth
centuries, was first uncovered in the early 1990s.
Another monastery, likely
linked to the same church, was discovered on an island in Umm Al
Quwain in 2022. Similar sites have also been identified in Kuwait,
Iran, and Saudi Arabia.
Archaeologists are still
investigating why the Sir Bani Yas settlement declined.

🐉 The
dragon
In
Revelation, we are warned about satan, that
old serpent the dragon:
❖[Revelation
12:9]❖
“And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the
Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out
into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.”
Friday's events
are recorded in Matthew 27:1-62, Mark 15:1-47, Luke 22:63, Luke
23:56, and John 18:28, John 19:37.
In the early
morning hours, as Jesus' trial was getting underway, Peter denied
knowing his Master three times before the rooster crowed.
Good Friday is
the most difficult day of Passion Week. Christ's journey turned
treacherous and acutely painful in these final hours leading to his
death.
According to
Scripture, Judas Iscariot, the disciple who had betrayed Jesus, was
overcome with remorse and hanged himself early Friday morning.
Meanwhile,
before the third hour (9 a.m.), Jesus endured the shame of false
accusations, condemnation, mockery, beatings, and abandonment. After
multiple unlawful trials, He was sentenced to death by crucifixion,
one of the most horrible and disgraceful methods of capital
punishment known at the time.
Before Christ
was led away, soldiers spit on him, tormented and mocked him, and
pierced him with a crown of thorns. Then Jesus carried His cross part
of the way to Calvary and then a man named Simon was compelled to
carry it the rest of the way. At Calvary, Jesus was again mocked and
insulted as Roman soldiers nailed Him to the wooden cross.
Jesus spoke
seven powerful statements from the cross, including "Father,
forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing" (Luke
23:34, NIV), "Father, into your hands I commit my spirit"
(Luke 23:46, NIV), and His last words were, “It is finished”
(John 19:30).
Then, about the
ninth hour (3 p.m.), Jesus breathed his last breath and died.
By 6 p.m.
Friday evening, Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea took Jesus' body
down from the cross and lay it in a tomb.
