FOREWORD

The prayer that all men should pray:

O God, I have considered my surroundings, the stars, the planets—their orbits, the earth—its seasons, ecological cycles, life and its conception, science; it is not chaotic enough to be random, You Exist. I am small and have no resources to find You—but You have all the resources to make Yourself known to me. Please make Yourself known to me. Until led otherwise I will continue in the faith of my parents believing that You are their God. Amen.

Men are responsible before God to find Him, all men know He exists, [ROM 1:20 -- for from [the] world's creation the invisible things of him are perceived, being apprehended by the mind through the things that are made, both his eternal power and divinity, -- so as to render them inexcusable.].

The foregoing prayer also delivers all religious men from what is false, and puts the responsibility, of revelation to them as individuals, upon God. And God will deliver, He always does. (The philosophy of successful management, ‘take your problem and make it someone else’s problem’. So here and at all other times in life trust God, take your difficulty and make it His responsibility.)

A second prayer should be, Please make me to know the reading material that most accurately reflects You.

The DARBY translation of THE HOLY SCRIPTURES is the most literal English translation of the original languages.

All scriptures quoted have been presented in square brackets and italic font, and where Darby used italic for emphasis, ‘*’ is used.

What materials a man has acquired in life he leaves behind upon succumbing to death and his children inherit.

This written material will be your greatest inheritance; be in the gain of all these things.

Divine Speaking

God speaks and He has created within us the ability to hear Him speak. Sin, the state into which we have fallen, has not restructured what God established. Hence all original abilities remain but some perhaps lie dormant through lack of knowledge of their existence and potential. God has not given up on His original purpose or mankind, us, individuals to whom He has given natural life; and in the absolute sense God has not been affected by Sin. All Divine Persons, as individuals, have been affected by Sin. The Bible has all the answers and is all instructive; we just need to give it the due consideration. Divine communication comes in many forms, but can be grouped into what is external to us and what is internal.

Externally there is reading the written word, hearing with the ear the spoken word, seeing with the eye what is visible, and perceiving the invisible from the visible [ROM 1:20 -- for from [the] world's creation the invisible things of him are perceived, being apprehended by the mind through the things that are made, both his eternal power and divinity, --]. The spirit of life that God gave each one of us acknowledges these external Divine communications.

Internally; two scriptures that help with the understanding of Divine communication in respect of what constitutes internal are; [1KINGS 19:9 …And behold, the word of Jehovah [came] to him, and he said to him, What doest thou here, Elijah?] and [1KINGS 19:12-13 …, a soft gentle voice. And it came to pass, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped
