    About this ebook

    Though my primary focus or revelation seemed to be "Page 1: God’s Timetable", there were many other insights that revealed Jesus more clearly. There is no point in knowing God's precise timetable without knowing who is managing and coordinating it. Over the millennia, the Biblical texts and Jewish law, and even God inspired teaching, have given us many ways to picture God’s plan for His children. Forgiveness, redemption, cleansing, sacrifice, salvation, sanctification, adoption, rebirth, repentance, restoration, victory, freedom, eternal life, and the list goes on. It’s all good but as you read these articles you will come to see how we have drifted from the purity and simplicity and completeness of what Jesus did. You will find a more intimate picture of God. Academic understandings are exchanged for real, personal concepts. I could go on to suggest that you will discover a freedom to follow God rather than rules. But this introduction will turn into a preachment, guilty of the same academic propositions that I am trying to strip away so that you can see Jesus, so much better.

      What Does The Bible Say About Fate / Destiny?

      Jan 1, 2021

      This is a very complex issue, and we will start with what the Bible does not teach. Fate is usually thought of as a predetermined course of events beyond human control. A typical response to a belief in fate is resignation—if we can’t change destiny,

      Apr 22, 2022

      In the church today, there are many sins that are seen as ‘socially acceptable’. Are we changing the Bible to fit our culture, or are we changing our culture to fit the Bible? While the sin of worry, for example, may not seem as severe as murder, it
