Luke 15:1-7
One of the first songs I ever sang at EBC was based on this passage. Originally recorded about 30 years ago by the Gaither Vocal Band and recently re-recorded, the song describes a joyous party in heaven.

There's only one thing that we're sure about That can make those angels jump and shout
It's when a sinner makes the Lord his choice That's when the angels rejoice

Following that He talked about a great banquet. The invited guests all made excuses and sent their condolences so the Master said, ''Go invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, and the blind.'' Still there was room so the Mas ...
