A Wider View This is the second book in which I have included a chapter titled “A Wider View.” I have found that certain kingdom truths are difficult to comprehend unless we first envision the grand panoramic scope of Yahweh’s works and plans. When we focus narrowly on a subject, apart from...

Laying Down the Law – Part 1
Foreword A word of explanation is necessary at the start of this book. In this work you will find this writer using names in reference to God the Father and God the Son that are more faithful to their Hebrew original than the names and titles generally in use by the church today. The name Yah, or...

Wrapping Up It hardly seems that it has been seven months since I began writing this book, yet the first post to this series was published online on February 21, 2014. Today is September 12, 2014. When I set forth to begin this writing I had certain goals in mind. I was troubled by the vast amount...
FOUNDATIONS – Part 18
Giants on the Earth The Bible presents a history of the earth in the days of man that is at times astonishing. It is not surprising that many who reject the divine inspiration of the Scriptures view its narratives as nonsense. There are even those among professing Christians who stumble in...
FOUNDATIONS – Part 17
Beyond Babel Tower of Babel/EU Parliament Building I want to once again comment on the value of giving significant attention and time to an event that God allotted no more than ten verses to in the book of Genesis. Why trouble ourselves to understand what took place at Babel? What is the value for...
FOUNDATIONS – Part 16
Nimrod, Babel, and its Tower Tower of Babel Stele From Time of Nebuchadnezzar As we continue to look at the ancient foundations of human history one may ask, “What is the benefit of doing so?” It is not uncommon for a school age child to question the value of their history lessons. They may see...

The Zodiac Explained There are numerous explanations for the origin of the word “zodiac.” Perhaps the most common attributes the etymology of this word to an ancient reference to a circle of animals in the sky. English readers may recognize a similarity between the word “zoo,” and related words...

He spoke of...
She’s Home
I had promised the bloggers that I would tell them when my daughter Kristin made any big leaps across the pond. Well, she was here for 12 days, having come home from Poland. I was able to loan her my car while she was here, and it was the first time she had driven a car since being in Poland....
FOUNDATIONS – Part 13
The Scroll of the Heavens The twelve constellations of the zodiac are found in a narrow band that borders the path of the sun through the heavens. If a person envisions the heavens as being a giant sphere that surrounds the earth, the zodiac would be about 1/20th, or 18 degrees, of this globe,...
FOUNDATIONS – Part 12
Prophecy in the Heavens In the preceding chapter we looked at the divinely assigned role of the sun, moon, and stars as markers to indicate to God’s people His moedim (seasons, appointed times). Three times each year all the men of Israel were commanded to gather to the place appointed by God to...

I have been sick with the stomach flu for the past five days. I am still not feeling quite up to par, but I am at least eating something. I don't actually get sick very often, but this sickness has taken it out of me. I would appreciate your prayers. Yahweh's Calendar The study of the early...

FOUNDATIONS – Part 4
Beginnings The Bible speaks much of the beginning of things. In understanding beginnings we are able to properly understand both the physical and spiritual world about us. If we do not properly identify beginnings our beliefs and doctrines will invariably be distorted. During the years in which I...
FOUNDATIONS – Part 3
The Apprehension of Truth In posting the previous chapter of this book I have anticipated some objections that may be raised to what has been set forth. In trying to keep each post to a reasonable length it becomes untenable to attempt to address in one writing every concern, question, or...

The Only Begotten Son John 1:14 And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth. From the time I was a child I heard Christ described as “the only begotten son.” Like many Christians I could quote John...

Dragon Flood – Conclusion
Don’t Drink the Water The name of this series is Dragon Flood.
