    About this ebook

    Is God real? Who is Jesus? What is the truth? While believers hear the word “God” again and again, most never reach an understanding of the reality of God. A loving God. A God of the impossible. Our supernatural God, who sent a beautifully intricate personal message to all. A God of always.

    Although it is not possible for any one person to fully understand the nature of God, this book, based on many years of biblical research, assists those new to the faith in their search for the truth. As man was forewarned, “For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders” (Matthew 24:24), there are untruths that abound in our world. Assisting the believer in discerning truth from falsehood, the most commonly taught false teachings are addressed.

    Ultimately, the seed planted, will begin an understanding to the questions, “Is God real?”, “who is Jesus?”, and “what is the truth?”; with the train of thought presented leading to the one facet of life we all must have... hope. The material presented, not opinion, is supported by literary evidence directly from the ancient set of writings we all possess, “the Bible”.

      INTRODUCTION

      This book presents a summary of selected points of biblical knowledge illustrating positive evidence of supernatural authorship of the Bible; and views specific teachings within the Bible in a truer light. Hopefully, this will lead the reader to an interest in learning the deeper knowledge and truths woven throughout biblical texts, and to further study elsewhere to verify the truth of the spiritual and the supernatural origins of this ancient set of writings.

      The Bible is an impossibly intricate text. This material, spiritual and supernatural in nature, is frequently presented by most religions in a cursory — though positive and motivating — manner. As a result of this method, intricacies and deeper truths present within the texts remain invisible to those doing their best to learn. As it is not possible to address the entirety of hidden knowledge contained in the writings given to us by God, this book addresses just a few of the hidden truths. Quoting Peter Hiram who, after a complex discourse regarding his own biblical studies, stated, This is but the gleam from the crest of the tip of a very large iceberg.¹

      I hope you enjoy reading.

      ONE

      ONE WORD THAT WILL PROVE GOD’S EXISTENCE

      Declaring the end from the beginning… Isaiah 46:10

      One word can prove the existence of God.

      To get to that one word we must first take a journey of the mind. On this journey many different areas of biblical knowledge will form our map. To get to the final point is not simple, that is until we get there. And though some of this discussion may seem like a fairy tale to a non-believer; it all comes from an ancient set of writings that people continue to study and worship, believing the writings to be sent by a God. Take this into account:

      First, come from the perspective that God exists. I’ll go over generally some areas that take into account this "fact". Even if you do not believe, I am asking you to come over to this perspective, at least for a little while (while reading this) and accept this fact: God exists.

      Ok, God exists. So, what or who is God?

      THE NATURE OF GOD AND ALWAYS

      To begin here, we have to understand that God does not only exist, but God has ALWAYS existed. God was not created.

      A logical argument people have in their thoughts, when reading, In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth is, If God created all this, then who created God? And they then logically continue that god would be God and then whoever created that god would be god, and so that would then be god . . . and then . . . they lose the truth: God was not created. He has ALWAYS existed.

      Wade into always. Give it some thought sometime.

      Just as everything else we know and have seen has had a beginning and leads to an end, the always existed concept is very difficult to accept. But God is now, always has been, and always will be. From the book of Revelation, … which is, which was and which is to come, says God is now, God always was and God always will be.

      I AM THAT I AM. This is His name and how God answered Moses when Moses asked …and who will I say sent me to deliver your people from Egypt? EHYEH ASHER EHYEH (YHVH). THIS is the name of God. While we in this day and time, less spiritual in nature than civilizations of times past, may not grasp the significance of the name, those in the time would have recognized the significance of the name: I AM THAT I AM: the God who is, who has always been, and who will always be. I AM. That’s Who sent Moses. The Egyptians, of course, discovered too late they should have listened. Oops.

      So, going further to the arguments people make in logic when reading these ancient writings. How can there be a God who created everything and Who also knows the number of hairs on my head? That seems impossible and even ridiculous, but it’s true.

      You have to think in terms of ALWAYS — and this, going back in time, not forward. Think in terms of all powerful, for Whom all things are possible, and think in terms of supernatural. You cannot understand it, but think in these terms to get a little close. It is not possible to understand or comprehend God, but just because we can’t understand or comprehend, does not mean He does not exist.

      To get to some answers about this all powerful God, ask when — at what time in God’s existence — could there have been a being Who would perfect all these written things? Creating universes! Counting hairs on my head! Knowing my thoughts! Well, He ALWAYS existed (was never created), so let’s take a logical look. Ok, maybe in this time of always, He perfected these things a few universes ago. Yes, that’s it, about 100 universes ago He must have perfected creating universes, while also knowing the minutiae down to the hairs on my head. Wait. He has always existed. Ok, well, then maybe it was a few billion universes ago when He perfected all these things. Wait.ALWAYS! Then maybe a few trillion? Wait. How long ago was it that He could have perfected… everything? Remember, He has ALWAYS existed. Go back — ALWAYS — to understand. God has never not existed. Ever. And, with Him all things are possible. He is all powerful and He is
