First let me say that I am a mere human being that was born into a sinful nature and only by the grace of God almighty and the salvation found in Jesus Christ will I be found acceptable. I pray that you take my words as one weary travelers discoveries and that my intentions are not point fingers at any one denomination or belief system. My life experience has shown me the detailed workings of the Protestant Church to include my participation in seminary and collegiate Bible training, the complete catechism of the Catholic Church and a review of the Quran. None of these were capable of answering many nagging questions concerning the scriptures. After 40 years of "church life" I stopped following the crowds and began a study of the scriptures in the original Hebrew and Greek. Paralleling events in history with the scriptures and deciphering the effect of these events on the lives and theology of the believers. I pray that the information provided here has a three fold effect: 1. provide truth not otherwise provided by the corporate church experience 2. Answer questions that others are either afraid to ask or afraid to answer, and last but not least, 3. bring people to a saving relationship and closer walk with YHVH.

One for the think muscle….

I sat and contemplated the call of the Prophet. Those incredible names buried in the middle of the Bible. What was it about these individuals that God himself would speak directly, outloud, you know, just like talking to your mom, outloud! (goosebumps are allowed) Isaiah was called by God to announce the Messiah and his... Continue Reading →

Unchanging

The very first command of YHWH to Adam concerned food and what was to be eaten and what was to be avoided. How do we think anything has changed? Malachi 3:6 “For I am the Lord, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed." YHWH hasnt! ....and neither has Satan Genesis 3:4... Continue Reading →

Hmmmmm

Hosea 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. Notice that they are not destroyed for lack of prayer, lack of... Continue Reading →

Understanding the Thessalonians (and the USofA)

The Wikipedia entry for Thessalonica states “ the original name of the city was Θεσσαλονίκη Thessaloníkē. It was named after princess Thessalonike of Macedon, the half sister of Alexander the Great, whose name means "Thessalian victory", from Θεσσαλός 'Thessalos', and Νίκη 'victory' (Nike), honoring the Macedonian victory at the Battle of Crocus Field (353/352 BCE)”....

(1/8 of a mile x 60 = 7.5 miles, humans generally walk about 3 mph) And they talked together of all these things which had happened. And it... Continue Reading →
