The Grace of GOD is Greater Far…
My reading of Scripture today was Ezekiel 15 - 16. Chapter 16 describes the sins of Judah and Israel, and why God judged them, the sins of Sodom and their judgment (16:49-50). We can see clearly that God does not tolerate sin. Sin is what God calls sin; it does not matter at all what …
The Children of Israel Shall Come

Good Counsel
Reading today from 2 Samuel 17 - 19... "For the LORD had appointed to defeat the good counsel of Ahithophel, to the intent that the LORD might bring evil upon Absalom." 2 Samuel 17:14 b (KJB) We all appreciate "Good counsel" from those who have a head and heart for wisdom. Do we always follow …

In the …
