<div class="SSN_title">"THE STONE OVER THE DOOR"</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_intro">Intro: The horrible crime had been committed, Jesus had been crucified. Man's first sin was suicide, next recorded sin fratricide-deicide. It was over now, they could gloat in their successful scheme while Judas goes out and hangs himself. In a few days the shock of the crime will pass and in a few weeks people will forget. The limp body of Jesus is removed from the cross, tender hands of love emblam the body while tears of disappointment and sorrow roll down the cheeks. The body now prepared is laid in a tomb and a great stone is rolled against the opening. This seems to be the tragic end of a beautiful story.</div>
