The Mystery Explained: God's Wisdom in Plain Sight


Book Description

God's wisdom hidden in plain sight was discovered through decades of dedicated research utilizing combined testimony of His three witnesses of spirit, blood and water testifying from Genesis 1:1 through Revelation. God placed the primer for breaking His true Bible code in the words of Genesis 1:1 where God (spirit witness) created the heaven (blood witness) and earth (water witness). These three singularity hosts are then broken into two witnesses of spirit and water allowing the blood witness to be begotten to testify for the original singularity host, establishing the pattern for all three-witness mystery sets in God's Living Word. The Father (spirit), Son (blood) and Holy Spirit (water) comprise the three witnesses testifying for heaven of Genesis 1:1 that corresponds to the Word of John 1:1-3 where "My Father who is in heaven" derives His name. Jesus Christ is the Word made flesh who dwelt among us, as the Son of God (begotten blood witness) with the Father (spirit witness) and Holy Spirit (water witness) in Him. God divided the earth of Genesis 1:1 into the waters above (heavens; spirit witness) and waters below (earth; water witness), so the two were rejoined to beget heaven (blood witness) of Genesis 1:8 to follow the same mystery-process pattern. Knowing the stories of God's Bible witnesses, and their relationships, allow the reader to hear the combined testimony, as angel song emerging from His Living Word like a symphony; for those God's chooses to know His wisdom hidden in plain sight.

The Mystery of God


Book Description

How can I know God if he is incomprehensible? Is it possible to know God in a way that takes seriously the fact that he is beyond knowledge? Steven Boyer and Christopher Hall argue that the "mystery of God" has a rightful place in theological discourse. They contend that considering divine incomprehensibility invites reverence and humility in our thinking and living as Christians and clarifies a variety of theological topics. The authors begin by investigating the biblical, historical, and practical foundations for understanding the mystery of God. They then spell out its implications for theological issues and practices such as the incarnation, salvation, and prayer, rooting knowledge of God in a concrete life of faith. Evangelical yet ecumenical, this book will appeal to theology students, pastors, church leaders, and all who want intellectual and practical guidance for knowing the unknowable God.




The Four Vision Quests of Jesus


Book Description

A unique look at Christian biblical interpretation and theology from the perspective of Native American tradition. This book focuses on four specific experiences of Jesus as portrayed in the synoptic gospels. It examines each story as a “vision quest,” a universal spiritual phenomenon, but one of particular importance within North American indigenous communities. Jesus’ experience in the wilderness is the first quest. It speaks to a foundational Native American value: the need to enter into the “we” rather than the “I.” The Transfiguration is the second quest, describing the Native theology of transcendent spirituality that impacts reality and shapes mission. Gethsemane is the third quest. It embodies the Native tradition of the holy men or women, who find their freedom through discipline and concerns for justice, compassion, and human dignity. Golgotha is the final quest. It represents the Native sacrament of sacrifice (e.g., the Sun Dance). The chapter on Golgotha is a discussion of kinship, balance, and harmony: all primary to Native tradition and integral to Christian thought.
