Death And Rebirth Bible Dictionary
1,193 wordsIn the book of Ephesians in the Bible, Paul describes the rebirth of the world upon Christs death, emphasizing the Ephesians new life (2: 4 - 5).

To understand this poem, one has to understand the impact that Christ had on the world. At the time of his ...
