The Point of No Return
As I sat at my kitchen table meditating on my life; where I use to be in time past compared to where I am today, It amazed me that I have reached a point within my life, and my relationship with God; that I have no desire to return to the ways of this world, from which God, with a mighty hand delivered me from over a period of twenty-six plus years! I was not then, nor am I today perfect in and of myself; only in Christ Jesus am I righteous by faith! I looked deep within the spirit of my mind and I said to the Lord; "God, after all the things that I''ve been through, especially this past year (2012), I still got joy!" This was beyond my natural understanding; how in the world could I have peace and joy, looking back over my life! God spoke to the spirit of my mind, in his still soft voice, and said to me, "It is because of my mercy and my grace along with your willingness to allow my Spirit to work within the spirit of your mind; that you are still standing, and experiencing a peace which transcends the natural mind; you have reached "The Point Of No Return" by becoming "Fully Persuaded" within the spirit of your "own mind," that, what I have promised in my word, that, I am also able to perform!" I was filled with such peace, and joy that there are not words to express it! It was from this powerful experience with God, that, I was inspired by his Spirit to write this book! The Spirit of God, took me into the book of 2Peter-1:1-10 focusing on verses 4-10 and building a foundation from the tenth verse! I then realized that through the years of seeking the kingdom of God and his righteousness; that I had, by his Spirit "added to my faith" those things which the apostle Peter speak of in the above epistle: and as it is stated therein; "If ye do these things, ye shall never fall." This inspired work will edify the faith of those who are struggling to overcome the pollutions of this world through the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ; it will encourage you to "keep striving" after righteousness, keep praying, keep studying, and applying the word of God to your daily life; regardless of how your life might seem to be with your struggles to overcome sin in your life! It will inspire you to allow the Spirit of the living God to work within the spirit of your mind to bring about a change within your life! God, my friend, is willing, and more than able, to do just that, if you will simply allow him to do so! My friend, there is such a place, that one can reach, in one''s relationship with God, through Christ Jesus our Lord; a place that is called "The Point Of No Return." Get a copy of this book today, and watch God move in your life, regardless of what point you are at, in your life today!

Where Do I Go from Here

release date: Apr 07, 2013
Where Do I Go from Here
As I begin this inspired journey of this new book titled "Where Do I Go From here" I am greatful to God for his divine inspiration and guidance. This book is long overdue and will be a blessing to many that are "stagnant on the Road to Emmaus, both psychologically and spiritually! As I am a living witness of how sad and lonely this road is; and how vital it is for one to quickly get off this road, and get back on the road to life. If you have experienced the death of someone special in your life as the two disciples on the Road to Emmaus had; after the death of Jesus Christ, you have traveled or are traveling down the road to Emmaus. The journey down Emmaus Road begain at the death of that special someone that was in your life but have suddenly died naturally or due to some sickness or some other cause; known as the "immediate cause" of death. Let me inject here however, that "death" isn''t the only cause for one to be stagnant on the road to Emmaus! It might be from the result of a "broken marriage", "drug or alcohol abuse", "loss of a job", and the list could continue on and on! The point is; whatever is causing sadness in your life have both "psychologically and spiritually" led you to this road of sadness and lonliness, even if you do not realize it! However, this books primary focus is on one of the causes, which is "DEATH"! Most people in the world know and have heard of the man Jesus Christ! If you have not, I am more than happy to introduce you to him in this book! Jesus Christ was the promised Messiah! Salvation to all men or nations of men came through him; as the Savior of the world (John-3:16,17). Jesus Christ was a Jew and this is why the Bible declare to us that "Salvation is of the Jews" (Romans-11:11). God sent Jesus Christ into this world to die for the sins of the world that the world through his death, might be saved! Jesus was born into this world and lived as a human, yet without sin; was accused of blasphemy by the chief priest and men of high honor in his day, convicted by a court of law and sentenced to "death" by "crucifiction" by his own people! I will now take you on a journey back to the events that led to his death on the cross at Calvary; and how his death tie in to the "Road to Emmaus"! Jesus begin his ministry at the age of thirty! He chose twelve men that are called disciples; whom he taught, lived with and instructed about the "kingdom of God!" At the age of thirty-three and a half (33 1/2) Jesus was crucified on a cruel cross at Calvary as he gave his life a ransom for many including you and me! When Jesus was crucified all of his disciple''s hope was gone as well as their faith, as they did not understand, the providence of God; his purpose, until after his death, burial and resurrection from the dead! The Jewish looked for someone to overthrow the Roman government of their day; a coming king! Yet when Jesus came, they neither knew him nor understood his divine purpose in the world. Immediately before his death, all of his disciples left him and fled and was scattered! After his crucifiction, two of his disciples left Jerusalem and traveled to a village which was outside of Jerusalem; called Emmaus! They had to travel down a road which is called "the road to Emmaus" the story of their sad journey is found in the book of Luke the twenty-fourth Chapter and is summed up in this: Luke places the story on of the day of Jesus'' resurrection. The two disciples have heard the tomb of Jesus was found empty earlier that day. They are discussing the events of the past few days when a stranger asks them what they are discussing. "Their eyes were kept from recognizing him". He rebukes them for their unbelief and expounds on the scriptures about the Messiah. After a meal and breaking of bread their eyes were opened and they knew him. They returned to Jerusalem and to tell the others; Jesus was alive and how they knew him by the breaking of bread! This book will inspire you to see death and all God''s way!

The President of the United States of America
America, we have recently held an election for the office of "President" of the United states! Once more an "African American" was placed into that office by being re-elected; President Barak Obama! I am honored to have him as President of our great country for another four year term!

Many have tried to "put their finger" on exactly how this could be possible! Those that are very wealthy are confused of the fact that their "money" could not prevent it! The news media world wide made it their buisness to make clear the fact; that President Barak Obama received only thirty some odd percent of some Americans votes; as these stood in deep silence when his victory was announced to the world!

God have promised us a better world and we look forward to God''s promise and until that day arrive; we will continue to pray for godly people to rule over the affairs of the government of the United States Of America. For it was prayer and trust in God that this country was built on based on Biblical principles and it is these same principles that will keep this country standing strong in this world!

Suicidal Deaths

release date: Jan 10, 2015
Suicidal Deaths
The issue of suicide is one that is very misunderstood by most, even in the Christian faith. Most consider suicide to be a diabolical act and the ultimate disgrace. As I prayed and studied this issue prior to God''s inspiration to write this book, I became completely convienced that even suicide is not the "unforgivable sin"! It too is an forgiviable sin according to the Bible. The only sin that is unforgivable according to the Bible is the sin against the Holy Spirit, which sin is not only unforgivable in the life but also in the life that is to come. I am certainly convienced that the "immedaite" cause of any death, is literally the "means" by which an individual departs this life: which means were appointed by Almighty God, prior to the world''s creation! Every created thing was created to answer some ends and it is God, who directs the steps of men in general to answer such ends, than once those ends have been answered God disposes of the created things according to his pleasure by the means. I am perfectly convienced that "Suicide" is a means used by God to remove some individuals from this world. It must be clearly understood, that the "means" does not out weigh the "divine purpose". Every sincere Christian must believe in the divine providence of God: if not, their faith in God is completely vain. This book helps the Christian understand the doctrine of divine providence as is spelled out in theology. Once this doctrine is comprehended, one will understand the workings of God in a brighter light: as I place this doctrine of theology under the light of God''s word. This book is a must read. Having a step-brother, who committed this act myself, I understand the emotional state it leaves an individual''s loved ones and friends in. This book gives closure, and edifies one''s faith as God himself writes the final chapter of every individual''s life and it is he who is able to bothe save and destroy both body and soul in hell. There is hope for those individuals who have committed suicide. Find out the answer to the ultimate question (Why) and who is ultimately responsible. Get this book, there is none other like it.

The Fear of Death

release date: Sep 01, 2012
The Fear of Death
It is written in the sacred scriptures that death is the fate of all mankind. Most people live life daily in fear of dying! "The Fear Of Death" hold them in bondage their entire lifetime. Fearful of what awaits beyond the dissolution of the body, keep mankind in fear of dying, while they live! Mankind is seeking desparately to find the truth that lie in death. There have been many books written, and many movies created attempting to provide that truth. These all assume that what they present to mankind is the truth of what result after death! I have found through my studies on this vital subject, that the most common "assumption," is the "Immortal Soul Doctrine!" From a child in a Baptist church, I was taught to believe in this doctrine; but it never agreed with my spirit! With much prayer and guidance by the Holy Spirit, God took me through a intense study of the sacred scriptures; emptying my mind of what I had been taught and replacing it with what the sacred scriptures teach. I came to realize why this doctrine of the immortal soul never sat right in my spirit; and it is because it is not taught anywhere in the Holy Bible! It is merely the "assumption," of those that fear dying! God have given me the key that removes "The Fear Of death," and the truth on which that doctrine is based! Through much study in many commantaries, books and the Bible; I have come to the conclusion that the "Immortal Soul Doctrine" is the cloak of darkness that covers the ancient old lie of the ancient old serpent in the Garden In Eden, that is, the devil. This lie was first told to Adam and Eve by the serpent; "Ye will not surely die!" You know the story how God instructed them not to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil or even touch it! God said: "In the day thou eat of it, ye will surely die!" The devil told them that God was a "lie!" He said it then and he is still saying it today; cloaked in the immortal soul doctrine! This concept of the supposed soul''s immortality originated not from God but ancient Babylon and ancient Egypt. The doctrine that man''s soul continue to exist after the body dies is "speculation," not Bible fact! It is not found in the sacred scriptures! It teaches that immediately at death of the body, the soul goes directly to "heaven" or "hell" for eternity and is based on if that soul was "saved" or "lost." Let me inject here, that heaven is certainly a reality; the Bible speak of three heavens and hell also is a reality; the Bible describes it as "the lake of fire!" The modern concept of hell, is a mixture of Bible truth, human imagination and pagan ideaology originating from the mind of a Poet named "Dante Alighieri," created in his work "Divine Comedy" in the 14th century. The concept of the immortal soul came to the Jews from their contact with Greek thought and mainly taught by a Philosopher named "Plato." He was led to this belief through Orphic and Eleusinian mysteries in which the Egyptians and the Babylonians views were strangely combined! this work,"The Fear Of Death" reveal truth by the sacred scriptures and inspiration of God, exactly what happens after death; as outlined in your Bible! You will find no other book like it; It will remove the fear of dying and of death from your life, build you up in faith of God''s word and will give you complete confidence in the face of death! My friends, order your copy of "The Fear Of Death," today! It will reveal to you another vital reason that Jesus came apart from saving us from sin and eternal damnation. The knowledge found within the pages of this book will help you to overcome living in fear of dying! God through Christ want to "remove" that fear from your life today, while the blood still run warm in your viens and the breath of life still remain in your nostrials! My friends, order your copy today and be set free from living in fear of dying!

Curse of the Forbidden Fruit
"Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die. And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat. And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons. ...""This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him; Male and female made he them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created. And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image: and called his name Seth. And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters: And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died. ...""... Wherefore, as by one man sin entered the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: (For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law. Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned in the similitude of Adam''s transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come. ..." Curse of the forbidden fruit; wherein lie the curse of sin and death. This work brings to the spirit of the mind of the reader that one must be born again in order to see or to enter the kingdom of God - that which is born of the flesh is flesh and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

Troubled on Every Side

Troubled on Every Side
As I lay upon my bed the night of January 14th 2013, God spoke to the spirit of my mind, and said these words to me, "Stand in awe, and sin not commune with your own heart (mind) upon your bed, and be still (Psalm-4:4)." As I followed God''s instruction, and begain to commune with my own mind (heart); I found myself searching it very diligently, finally coming to this conclusion. I was troubled on every side! It was at this time that the Spirit of God immediately inspired me to begain this book titled "Troubled On Every Side"! Every place that I looked deep within the chambers of my heart (mind) I found nothing but trouble therein! I as many people of God are continually confronted with trouble on every side! I was then reminded of the prayer our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ prayed prior to his crucifixion! In that prayer Jesus stated: "I pray for them (original apostles): I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine. And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them. And now I am no more in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one as we are. While I was in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scriptures might be fulfilled. And now come I unto thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves. I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil. They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world (John-17:9-17 KJV)." Then Jesus stated: "Neither pray I for these (original apostles) alone, but for them (you and I) also which shall believe on me through their words (John-17:21 KJV)." As I continued to meditate on these things the Spirit of God brought to my remembrance these words that Jesus left with his disciples: "Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart (mind) be troubled, neither let it be afraid (John-14:27 KJV)." As I continued to meditate on these things in the spirit of my mind; an old song rose up within my spirit which an artist called, "Trouble In My Way." As I recalled the lyrics to this song I was led to zero in on these words: "Trouble in my way, I have to cry sometime; trouble in my way, I have to cry sometime: I lay awake at night, but that''s alright, I know that Jesus, he will fix it afterwhile!" It was then that God''s awesome Spirit took me in the spirit of my mind to the words of Jesus according to John-16:33 which states: "These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation (trouble); but be of good cheer I have over come the world." I was then reminded of the apostle Paul''s words of us that will strive to live godly in this world; that we would through ''much tribulation'' must we enter the kingdom of God! My friends, you might be as I found myself; "Troubled On Every Side"! But remember the words of Jesus that the wolrd would rejoice while we weep but he said that our weeping will be turned into joy! If you are troubled in your life, this book is for you; if you are striving to live a godly life in Christ Jesus, this book is for you; if you are weeping now, my friend, this book is for you; if it seems that the world is pressing in on every side of your life; this book is for you or if you are one who is simply courious; this book is for you! You will be edified within the spirit of your mind; strengthened by the anointing within the pages of this book to hold your head up boldly in Christ Jesus, and keep looking to the hills from whence cometh your help! You will be blessed by this book "Troubled On Every Side"!
