Overview of this Volume – Volume 5 in the set
This volume contains many of the eBooks that I wrote between some time in 1998 and 2007.
These eBooks were each written to address a specific subject area in depth. In many cases, since writing these books my understanding with regard to names and key areas of doctrine have changed, in some cases, radically. Nevertheless the core theme of each book remains valid and valuable and will, I believe, be of assistance to people seeking in those areas.
The eBooks contained in this volume are:
1. Preamble to Old Writings
An overview of key points in these writings where my understanding has changed significantly.
2. A Guide to Receiving Personal Prophecy (1998)
A discussion of points to keep in mind when an anointed servant speaks to one on behalf of the Almighty.
3. Poverty in the Church of Jesus Christ (1998)
Why many believers are in lack and what to do about it. My understanding on many points has evolved but the basic principles remain largely the same.
4. Y2K_Fact or Foolishness (1998)
The computer scare relating to so-called “Y2K” proved to be a damp squib, this article, written before Y2K happened examines various aspects of what was being said and evidences that the scare was largely unwarranted. Some spiritual interpretations are imputed.
5. Scriptural Definition of Marriage, Divorce, Adultery, etc (1999)
This book was written after a number of years of intense searching, seeking, praying, researching, etc and evidences in-depth from the Bible what the views of the Almighty are with regard to Marriage, Divorce, Adultery and related man-woman issues. This document is a weighty proof of a number of key points that are contrary to general church teaching and will give you a deep insight into the extent of error in the Christian Church with regard to just one of many areas of error.
6. The Responsibility of Believing Men Towards Single Believing Women (1999)
There are many more believing women than believing men, do those men have any responsibility towards those women? This book evidences that they do, although, after writing this, I came to conclude that what is recommended is effectively impossible to achieve in practice.
7. Is Polygamy Scriptural (2000)
A more concise examination of the fact that the Almighty created man and woman such that more than one woman could covenant with (marry) one man. This takes the form of a rebuttal of what was said on a TV program.
8. What is the orgin and purpose of man (2007)
A structure discussion of Creation versus Evolution in which I set out to prove from own knowledge and experience that there really WAS a Creation. I have subsequently reduced this to a few much more concise articles but the line of argument followed here remains valid.
Our Father in Heaven, Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, created mankind to be His Friends and to do things with Him and learn with Him. Today virtually no-one on Earth knows this and a minute number of people are actually seeking to come to the point where they hear Father Yah tell them that they are His Friend. In fact, it is my understanding that, at the time of writing, 25 September 2018, there are only TWO people on Earth who Yah has actively named as being His Friends.
This document is intended to help you on your journey to learn about Father Yah and build a relationship with Him.
