The Influence That the Prodigal Band’s Women Had in the Repentance of the Prodigal Band, Part Two: The Prodigal Band’s Women Consider Accepting Belief on Christ

Before I can post how the band’s women began considering believing on Christ, since their men were given ‘missions of God’ by God’s angels during the final singing note from a song those same angels gave them years before, I must remind the reader of the circumstances surrounding these missions given to the band members as well as how the singer of that note reacted to being given his mission during a conversation with pop culture pundits Jay Elliot (narrator of the first two novels of the trilogy, Battel of the Band and The Prophesied Band) and Lloyd Denholm, narrator of the third novel, The Prodigal Band.

Why redeemer? Because as with all humans beginning with Adam and Eve having been tempted by “the serpent” aka Satan to commit sin, that sin or sins–and remember, all humans fall short of the glory of God except for Christ as human–provide a “debt” so-to-speak that must be repented, then pardoned or paid-in-kind in order to reach Heaven to be with God. When Christ shed blood on the cross as a sacrifice, it was to REDEEM all sins of all people who repented of their sins and accepted Christ as Redeemer along with Savior. And, in this part one of Chapter Two, I explain some of the sins I did that had to be redeemed through repentance. And these weren’t typical sins, either, but serious ones in my opinion! But here is the weird aspect of this–while doing these sins, God STILL had my back and saved me from some possible death scenarios! And one wonders why I accepted Christ? Hmmm…

Below is the first part of Chapter Two, which is rather long and will be posted in three parts over November.
