Romans 10:9  "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth thy Lord Jesus and believe in thy heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved."

Jesus is our first, last and only hope.  Without Him we would be nothing.

DW, I remember all of those but as I recall gasoline was 25 cents a gallon
I also remember the ice cream shops where you could sit on the stools at the counter.
and the candy lipstick,
and the hula hoops,
oh oh  Lips Sealed  Lips Sealed  Lips Sealed
