THE MEANING OF EASTER

The meaning of Easter is Jesus Christ's victory over death. His resurrection symbolizes the eternal life that is granted to all who believe in Him. The meaning of Easter also symbolizes the complete verification of all that Jesus preached and taught during His three - year ministry.  If He had not risen from the dead, if He had merely died and not been resurrected, He would have been considered just another teacher or Rabbi. However, His resurrection changed all that and gave final and irrefutable proof that He was really the Son of God and that He had conquered death once and for all.  However, Easter did not always symbolize Christ's resurrection from the dead and the meaning of Easter was quite different than what Christians celebrate today. The feast day of Easter was originally a pagan celebration of renewal and rebirth. Celebrated in the early spring, it honored the pagan Saxon goddess Eastre.  When the early missionaries converted the Saxons to Christianity

BABIES SHOULD BE INTRODUCED TO ALLERGENIC FOODS IN FIRST 4-8 MONTHS, TURKISH EXPERT SAYS

Parents should introduce their newborns with common allergenic foods within the first 4-8 months and expose them to potential allergy triggers early on in life so they don't develop an allergy toward those foods later on, a Turkish expert has said. Professor Doctor Bülent Şekerel, chairman of the Turkish National Allergy and Clinic Immunology Foundation, said if newborns do not encounter allergenic foods in their early months, their immune system will fail to tolerate those foods later. Saying that food allergies are leading the way within allergic diseases worldwide, Şekerel added that food related allergies and intolerances have recently increased by two to three times. While some types of food allergies cause very mild symptoms, some can start off very slowly but later lead to very big health problem, he said. "If you do not give a certain food to the child between four and eight months, the child's immune system cannot learn to tolerate this food, and

Most are under the age of nine. One girl succumbed to her injuries yesterday morning,” Cappelaere said. “It is hard to imagine the sheer horror that those children experienced – and the sheer horror and guilt parents may feel for having done what every parent aspires to: sending their children to school,” he added.  “Killing and maiming children are grave violations of children’s righ

FOOTBALL'S MICHAEL JORDAN: IS CRISTIANO RONALDO THE GREATEST HEADER OF A BALL EVER

Ronaldo and Michael Jordan  The forward's average leap is 78 centimetres, which is 7cm higher than the average basketball player, while he can hang in the air for 0.7 seconds In the fifth and final game of the Chicago Bulls' epic series against the Cleveland Cavaliers in 1989, Michael Jordan hit a buzzer-beating two-pointer that quickly became known as 'The Shot'. It was a fittingly simple but effective description of what Bulls coach Doug Collins conceded afterwards was a simple but effective strategy: "[It] was get the ball to Michael and everybody else [on the team] get the f*ck out of the way!" Barcelona have a similar approach with Lionel Messi. "They can't afford to spend even 10 minutes of the match with him not getting possession of the ball," Xavi told  Mundo Leo  in 2017. "He has to be wherever it goes and if he's not there, bring it to him. [Otherwise] he's going to get p****d off. "Messi is
