THE SONG: Rahab Heard it

Preacher:
Passage: Joshua 2: 1, Joshua 2:9-14, Joshua 6: 15-25, Hebrews 11:31, Matthew 1:5, James 2: 21-25
Service Type:

One of the Old Testament books was considered so racy, young men were strongly encouraged, if sometimes commanded, to not read it for fear of the troublesome consequences. And yet, God! And that love song! No one is excluded from its invitation. Not even a prostitute! It’s been said: “God sees from on high, but he looks real low.” The ‘lowly’ Rahab heard it.
