From fires and floods, from accidents and calamities, and from Satan himself who stalks around the House of God like a roaring lion to see whom he can trick or beguile into his dark empire with his traps and snares.

What are we Hutterites to make of all this? Where should we stand? Didn't Jesus talk of love and forgiveness?
Matthew 19:4-5 “Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’ and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’? So they are no longer two, but one fl....

I used to think cancer was a bad word, but I don't think so anymore. My mother inlaw was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer in the second week in February 2014.
