The Chicago Bulls had never let an NBA Finals series go to a Game Seven in their franchise history, and all but one of their previous five titles (the exception was in 1991) were clinched in the sixth game. Thus, winning Game Six in Salt Lake City was imperative for Chicago.
Yet, as they arrived at the Delta Center for Game 6, things did not look good for the Bulls. Scottie Pippen's back gave way when he dunked the opening basket of the game and he was slowed down, scoring only eight points all game. Tensions ran high in the Delta Center when the Jazz discovered problems of their own. They suffered several shot clock violations, including one on a successful three-point attempt by Howard Eisley. Television replays showed, however, that Eisley got the ball out of his hands in time before the shot clock hit zero and the referees missed the call.[citation needed] In the fourth quarter, the Bulls closed the gap. With 41.9 seconds left, the Bulls suffered a jolt as John Stockton hit a clutch 3-point shot to give Utah an 86-83 lead and send the Delta Center into a frenzy. Down by three, the Bulls had one last chance to stay alive. Running perilously low on energy, the Bulls knew they must win the game or else face overtime.
After Michael Jordan made a layup to cut the Jazz lead to one, the Bulls needed to stop the Jazz from scoring again. When John Stockton passed the ball to Karl Malone, Michael Jordan stole the ball away and dribbled to the front. Guarding him was Bryon Russell, one of the Jazz's best perimeter defenders. Jordan drove inside the 3-point line, crossed over (it is argued that he pushed off on Russell [1]), and hit a 20-foot jump shot to give the Bulls an 87-86 lead with 5.2 seconds left. After a time-out, Stockton's three-point attempt hit the rim and bounced away, giving the Bulls their sixth NBA title in 8 years. Jordan, who scored 45 points, and whose game-winning shot has been immortalized in many records, was named the Finals MVP.
Quotes from the Finals
" All that's missing for Utah is a blindfold and a cigarette. - NBC's Bob Costas on Chicago's blowout of Utah in Game 3. "
" 17 seconds from Game 7, or from Championship number 6...Jordan, open...Chicago with the lead!! Time out Utah, 5.2 seconds left...Michael Jordan running on fumes with 45 points. - Bob Costas making the call of Michael Jordan's game-winning shot. "
" That may have been the last shot Michael Jordan ever made in the NBA...If that's the last image of Michael Jordan...how magnificent is it!? - Bob Costas describing Jordan's game-winner, his last shot as a Chicago Bull "
" Malone...stripped by Michael, to the floor, stolen by M.J.! Michael the steal! 16 seconds left, Bulls down one...Michael against Russell, 12 seconds...11...10. Jordan, Jordan, a drive, hangs...fires...SCORE!! He scores! The Bulls lead 87-86 with five and two-tenths left, and now they're one stop away! Oh my goodness...oh, my goodness! - Neil Funk calling Jordan's steal and game-winner on the Bulls' radio network. "

The song was sang at the Easter concert by the Willingdon Church Choir( www.willingdon.org).
This song really touched me because it speaks straight to my heart. God bless you all!
Chorus:
Freedom's calling, chains are falling, hope is dawning bright and true.
Day is breaking, night is quaking. God is making all things new.
Jesus saves.
Hear the heart of heaven beating, "Jesus saves. Jesus saves."
And the hush of mercy breathing, "Jesus saves. Jesus saves."
Hear the hosts of angels sing, "Glory to the the newborn King."
And the sounding joy repeating, "Jesus saves."
See the humblest hearts adore Him. Jesus saves. Jesus saves.
And the wisest bow before Him. Jesus saves. Jesus saves.
See the sky alive with praise, Melting darkness in its blaze.
There is light forevermore in "Jesus Saves."
He will live, our sorrow sharing. Jesus saves. Jesus saves.
He will die our burden bearing. Jesus saves. Jesus saves.
"It is done!" will shout the cross, "Christ has paid redemption's cost!"
While the empty tomb's declaring, "Jesus saves!"
Chorus 2x
Oh, to grace, how great a debtor, Jesus saves. Jesus saves.
Are the saints who shout together, Jesus saves. Jesus saves.
Rising up so vast and strong lifting up salvation's song.
The redeemed will sing forever, "Jesus saves!" 2X
JESUS SAVES! SAVES!
