<div class="SSN_level4">1. Two (2) disciples on road to Emmaus - "We had hoped He was the One who should redeem Israel."</div>
<div class="SSN_notes">For three days the pall of death hung over a lost, condemned, hopeless world. The one ray of light had been extinguished.</div>
<div class="SSN_notes">This is where some end the story - maybe you.</div>
<div class="SSN_notes">"The stone was rolled away" God is love, grace - truth. Jesus can redeem. Christianity is established - more than a religion, a vital, vibrant, life.</div>
