    To many of the people it seemed that even God had turned His back upon them. But Isaiah's faith & hope was not dimmed or shaken. God spoke through him, & in the 9th chapter he speaks about the coming Messiah.

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK INTRO. There are so many beautiful Christmas hymns.

    Have Faith And Pray

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Jun 5, 2015
     | 6,698 views

    Our Christian life is not to be confined to a closet. Our belief must be revealed in our practice. If we walk in Christ, then we must act as Christ would act because Christ is in us-our hopes, our love, our joy and our lives. We are Christ's reflection.

    At first glance, the reading from Hosea 1:2-10 doesn't seem to make sense. Would God really ask a prophet to marry a prostitute? Well, the answer is yes he can, and yes he did.
