God or King?
Samuel issued this prophecy, “on that day you will cry out because of your king, whom you have chosen for yourselves, but the Lord will not answer you on that day.”

I feel that we may be living in a time when and where Christians are challenged, yet again, to explain what we mean by being a Christian and to show in our lives what we believe.
One of the most heated Christian arguments has been around how to obtain righteousness and its relationship with either faith or works or both.
What would it mean to live life fully with this as a kind of foundational belief—how might it change the ways we live with and treat others, that they, too, are also potential angels-in-the-making?
There are strong, clear teachings in the Judeo-Christian scriptures that we are to welcome, feed, and clothe the stranger, those who are different from us, those who might practice a different religion or come from a different culture.
