luke-15:10

I want to invite your attention to two verses of Scripture found in the Gospel of Luke, the second chapter: And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying [not singing], Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among men in whom he is well plea...

On Palm Sunday many of us sing a hymn containing these lines: The Angel armies of the skies Look down with sad and wondering eyes To see the approaching Sacrifice. That, of course, is "only a hymn", but we have at least one piece of evidence from the Gospels that the angels of God are interested in ... Read More

"HAVING therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh; And having an high priest over the house of God; Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of fait...
