Genesis 3: The Fall of Man, Sin and the Seed of the Woman
Genesis 3 tells us the Garden of Eden story, where the Fall of Man takes place. We’re told at the onset of the chapter that a Serpent deceives the woman that was formed from man in chapter 2, into believing that she would not surely die by eating of the forbidden fruit that God had told Adam to avoid. She and the man then disobeyed God and ate of it. And this disobedience to God is understood to be sin. As a result of this sin, they saw their nakedness and were ashamed, and they were sent forth from the Garden and blocked from returning to it. It is widely…

The Sign of the Prophet Jonah
There are three mentions of the Sign of Jonah in the New Testament. Matthew first mentions it in Matthew 12:38-42 and then again in 16:1-4. Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we would see a sign from thee. But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas: For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale’s belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. The men of…

What is the Will of God?
Growing up in Christianity, I came to understand the Will of God to essentially consists of loving God with your whole heart, soul, mind and strength & loving your neighbor as yourself. And we do the latter by applying the Golden Rule: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Loving Your Neighbor As Yourself When I was young, I had a hard time with the phrase “as yourself” in the loving your neighbor part, because I struggled with negative feelings of self-worth. I remember when I was in middle school, at the age of 12 or 13, I had this notion that other people were more…

The Creator is God vs God is the Creator
For most of my life I’ve understood God to be the Creator and Source of all life, as if “God” was the identifying label for that Being who created the heaven & the earth and gave life to the vegetation & all the creatures He formed to inhabit it. I understood it that way because I was introduced to God through the religion of Christianity coupled with the Bible. I proceeded to understand who God was based on what I read in the Bible. But here, recently, I’ve been reframing my understanding. I acknowledge the Creator & Source of all life exists first & foremost. And, I consider Him to…

The Bible is Not the Inerrant Word of God
For most of my life I was led to believe the Bible was the inerrant Word of God. I heard that phrase repeatedly and never questioned it too much. But now I see that is not the case at all. What I Used To Believe When I was young, I was exposed to a Christian “catechism” that stated, when asked the question, “Who wrote the Bible?”, “Holy men of God wrote the Bible” was the answer. So, I acknowledged the idea that the Bible was written by men (as opposed to God Himself). When I tried to understand how this book could be considered “the Word of God”, I could…

The Bible: A Treasure Trove Weaponized
Personally, I see the Bible as a treasure trove of wisdom. Unfortunately, I believe the Bible has been weaponized by the Enemy of our soul to destroy mankind. Our Enemy’s Primary Aim: Destroy Mankind Through deceptive manipulation, I believe the Bible has been used by agents of our Enemy to destroy us by presenting a faulty understanding of the value, design & intended purpose for the existence of mankind. We’ve been taught that man is now fundamentally flawed due to Original Sin, referring to the Fall of Adam in the Garden of Eden, and that we are all inherently sinners. Therefore, we are all automatically separated from God at the…

First Things First: Get a Grip & Hold Fast
I believe we, as Bible students, Bible readers, and so-called Bible believers needs to read our Bibles, starting at the beginning of the book. We need to gain a firm grip on what is established there and then hold fast to it when reading all that comes after it, in order to make proper sense of it all. One would think this approach would make common sense and need not be said, but evidently it needs be said, because it doesn’t typically happen that way. But also, more importantly, I believe we need to get a firm grasp on reality before we even open the Book. And then we need…

Time to Rally the Troops
The Enemy is engaged in warfare against the Son of Man. He is hell-bent on destroying the Seed of the Woman — not just the Anointed One (singular man), but the entire body: all of mankind. This war is not just a spiritual war or an attempt to simply destroy the economies of this world or the way our society currently operates, it’s about destroying humans on a personal level — each one of us, and corporately, in our spirit, mind & body. The System is Destined to Fail Honestly, the economy here in America & societal operations-at-large have been destined to fail because they are set up against our…

We Are in the World, But Not Of It
Genesis 1 tells us that in the beginning God made the sky, land & seas. He brought forth regenerative vegetation on the land & put the sun, moon & stars in the sky to light the land. He filled the sky, land & seas with regenerative living beings. And then He brought forth a Son (also known as Man), to inhabit this world. And He anointed that Son with authority, power & dominion to rule in righteousness, and thereby experience perpetual life on the land. God has provided all of us with what we need to physically live in this world made by Him. However, most people in this modern…

Finally Answering the Call
Okay, maybe I’m a little late, but I’ve been debating back and forth with myself over the past year as to how to best carry out my calling at this moment in time. It seems the phone has been ringing for a while now, and I feel a sense of urgency welling up within me to answer it already. I believe those who have wakened in the last year either to the wicked agenda of the powers-that-be, or to the realization that the powers-that-be shouldn’t even be, are likely going to need a bit of direction going forward. And, I believe, there are those who may have already been awake…
