The Calling
The Calling is the first book in a series focused on breaking through the messianic secret, which you can order here. This project has taken many turns, but God does not relent. As you may have seen in my other posts, the messianic secret is only a small part of the journey.
The launch is expected in August 2023 so there is not much time to wait. Please sign up for the email list so you will be notified when it is time.
About The Calling
God’s magnificent plan cannot be seen until we understand why we are here. Viewing the world through a lens of clarity means we must take a step back and refocus. The residual image left behind from the Bible is more clear than the Bible itself. We have to re-train our eyes to see it, but it is astounding. That is what The Calling is about.
We journey through the beginning, before the fall of the angels to understand why they fell. That fall precipitates the fall of man, which turns into a lesson riddled with human pride, rebellion, and stubborness. These traits cause us to see things a certain way, which keeps us locked in the prison between here and there. It’s fascinating to see how this unfolds and The Calling unpacks vast details around the trials of man before concluding with our purpose and the depth of life to come.
Context of Creation
Central to The Calling is the context of creation as the primary context for any biblical interpretation. Without this context, all other interpretations are left without direction.
Bible Code
The Calling introduces a biblical code, which has been lightly touched on in prior blogs. This code is consistent across every book in the Bible and the resulting context dovetails perfectly with the context of creation. Interpretations can be tested with these tools, even by a lay person with essentially zero formal education.
Redemption Process
It might shock some to learn redemption is a process and not something we necessarily do. While it is complicated, the process is clearer than some may think. Redemption is a big part of this project because the way Jesus saves us leaves no room for others to be left behind.
The Shadows
Perhaps the most important topic in The Calling is the shadowy world around us. Keep in mind the Bible is a spiritual book in a temporal world. For this reason, we must read things a bit differently if we are going to garner the truth from the pages. The shadows are the truth. This common thread runs from Genesis to Revelation as it ties together in the end. Meanwhile, division is maintained by the flaming sword of Jesus’ Word. The shadow world operates in isolation because of the messianic secret.
Thank you for joining me on this journey. It is a special opportunity to do God’s work, no matter how daunting the task may seem.
