Evidence for the existence of God.
Why should we know God and how do we know God?
The most important decision you will ever make is to choose to know God and to learn all you can about Him.
God is the inventor of free will. According to the Bible, God gives all of us a choice to believe in Him or not.
Is God a man or a woman, a male or female or does it matter?
Why Him and not her?
That question and many others are answered here.
We are all imperfect and limited but God is perfect and unlimited.
So the only way we can know God is if He reveals Himself to us.
He did that through the Bible and, more importantly, through Jesus or Yeshua, his Hebrew name.
Yeshua, which means salvation, came to teach us about the Kingdom of God. The Bible speaks of Jesus as the Word of God - and the Word is there in the beginning - the book of Genesis.
Sin is when we fail to keep God's commandments.
Sin is also our imperfect human nature that leads us to live in ways that fall short of the standards God has set for us - which is to be like Him.
A perfect God can't look on or tolerate sin.
Jesus, fully God and fully man, lived a perfect life although his human nature was tempted, just as we are.
Because we have all sinned and He didn't, God allowed Jesus to become a living sacrifice for our sin so that we might be able to know God through Jesus.
By learning about Jesus and what he did for us, we can know God, the Father.
And for those who trust and believe that Jesus saved us from our sins, God sends the Holy Spirit to live within us.
The Holy Spirit guides us as we grow in spirit to become more like God.
The moment we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior, God, the Father, looks at us through the precious, shed blood of His Holy son Yeshua, and sees us as He is - without sin and with the transforming power of the Holy Spirit at work within us.
Please take the time to read the pages here and seek a better understanding of what it is to be free from the bondage of sin and a follower of Yeshua.
I Corinthians 1:18 For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are dying, but to us who are saved it is the power of God. For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, I will bring the discernment of the discerning to nothing. Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the lawyer of this world? Hasn't God made foolish the wisdom of this world? For seeing that in the wisdom of God, the world through its wisdom didn't know God, it was God's good pleasure through the foolishness of the preaching to save those who believe. For Jews ask for signs, Greeks seek after wisdom, but we preach Messiah crucified; a stumbling block to Jews, and foolishness to Greeks, but to those who are called, both Jews and Gentiles, Messiah is the power of God and the wisdom of God. Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men. For you see your calling, brothers, that not many are wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, and not many noble; but God chose the foolish things of the world that he might put to shame those who are wise. God chose the weak things of the world, that he might put to shame the things that are strong; and God chose the lowly things of the world, and the things that are despised, and the things that are not, that he might bring to nothing the things that are: that no flesh should boast before God. But of him, you are in Messiah Yeshua, who was made to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption: that, according as it is written, He who boasts or brags, let him boast in the Lord.

The music, for many years freely available on Lamplight Music and Waterfall Music pages, is being revised and re-recorded and will be uploaded as it's finished.
Some of the music was recorded with digital or analog technology from live performances. Some was created with a MIDI sequencer and imported into another program to improve the sound quality before saving as an audio file.
The sound files are CD quality (128 kbps) except for the longest music which is medium-low (64 kbps) for storage requirements and faster download speeds.
High-quality CD recordings from AIFF or 320 kbps master files are available of live performances of this and much more music from the Waterfall Music catalog. For sheet music, scores, parts, performance clearance and other requests, click the Guide page for contact information.
