It is reported that at the close of the Battle of Waterloo,

upon the issue of which hung the destinies of Europe, the

English people were anxiously awaiting news of the result.
Their only means of communication was a system of signal
lights flashed across the English Channel. The fog became
so dense that only a part of the message was made out. It
read, "Wellington defeated." Gloom settled upon the English. But imagine
their joy when the fog lifted and they received the whole message, "Wellington
defeated the enemy."
When Christ was crucified, His disciples were so enshrouded by the fogs of
doubt that they saw but one meaning to the sad event, "Christ defeated." All
hope was gone; Christ was dead. But Easter morning brought the glorious
fact of the risen Lord, and the message read, "Christ defeated the devil." How
glorious! By dying, Christ conquered the grave; by ascending, Christ made
possible our ascension even to heaven. Hallelujah! "O death, where is thy
sting? O grave, where is thy victory?" "Thanks be to God, which giveth us the
victory through our Lord Jesus Christ." William Moses Tidwell

Dr. Seamands tells of a Muslim who became a Christian in

Africa. "Some of his friends asked him, 'Why have you
become a Christian?' He answered, 'Well, its like this.
Suppose you were going down the road and suddenly the
road forked in two directions, and you didn't know which
way to go, and there at the fork in the road were two men,
one dead and one alive--which one would you ask which way to go?'"
