This work consists of displaying some of the Essays I wrote during my studies in Theology. It is really intended to help some students to debate my points of view and appreciate my sense of criticism

The King has come. The God of love planned reconciliation and transformation for the people he created. He planned liberation from bondage for all creation through the life, death, and resurrected life of his Son, Jesus Christ.

Jesus the King has come. He has inaugurated the kingdom. The Sermon on the Mount (Matt. 5-7) is the constitution of that kingdom. The constitution is intended to make Christlike disciples. The central dynamic of the constitution is godlike love and is based on his grace.

The Sermon begins with the essence of character, which is the foundation of all relationships and conduct. Who we are determines the influence we have and controls our conduct. Our conduct is based on right relationships with God, others, self, and the material world.

The Sermon is practical, dealing with every aspect of life. Our relationship with God is to be one of reverence and self-discipline. Our relationship to possessions calls for rejection of slavery to those possessions and to worry. In relationship to self, we must avoid destructive criticism and exercise discernment. Many areas are discussed in our relationship to others, such as murder, sex, retaliation, and more.

Join me in the study of the kingdom constitution as it reveals how to live life in the image of God. All who will may become a part of the kingdom by offering full allegiance to the King and by living life by the rule of godlike love.

The Paleolithic Paradigm takes us one step further in the nature/nurture debate. Certainly a certain percentage of our behaviors are biologically based. However, culture has the power to override much in genetic commands. The Amish exemplify this, no matter how much "we" qualify them as "quaint." Painting with a wide post-modern paint brush, Stocker takes on a journey through four cultures to show how different people can be. He offers the analogy: our genetic structure is the framework of any house. How we cover and decorate that frame is often the product of ancient traditions. However, we are all products of the same cognitive processes, thus explaining why we take ideas put into our heads as children to the grave whether we accept them, reject them, or alter them. It is this commonality the author examines. Accordingly, he wants to know, if we understand our cognition processes, can we change out behavior at will?

Life is all about being successful and happy. Many of us have everything and yet find the real happiness missing. We are constantly in pursuit of that joy which has eluded us forever, thus far. When we realize our true nature and origin, it enables our progression towards attaining a happy and fearless state in life. Each one of us is a divine Soul; unborn, unchanging, immutable and eternal; an inseparable potency of that Supreme God, who dwells in us eternally. Though each one of us has the potential to experience a divine existence, being immortals, we have chosen to take birth in this mortal world; taking birth to die and dying to take birth again, in some 8.4 million bodies. There is a mismatch in what is happening to us. We are immortals, but the bodies we acquire in this world are not. We can attain the divine, eternal world of God, if we realize our imperishable relationship with God, who alone can grant us the state we all seek. With that realization, we can transcend causes and effects of this karmic world, overcoming grief and pain. We not only achieve material success, but also live a useful life, for the self, for our families and for the society.

Dear Reader, This narrative is like none you have read before. It is written in a conversational format, without chapter headings. I would want you to sit down, have a piping hot cup of herbal tea, put your feet up and delve into my life - a life filled with joy, sadness, laughter, violence - unto Victory. Keep Kleenex tissues handy for laughter and sadness. Everything you read, I have experienced, but as the title states, "He was there ALL the time." God's had my life in His hands ALWAYS. Warm hugs from, Carol

A look at the Creator's answers regarding who we are, our origin, and what life is all about. God has revealed Himself extensively and His revelations are straightforward but we have distorted and clouded them with "religion." He has paid the full price Himself for our violations of His holiness so our failure to respond in faith constitutes rejection and has the consequence of eternal separation from Him. The main reason you haven't responded is that you haven't taken the time to look - you have simply been going along with the crowd. Shouldn't you at least take the time to look and see where that crowd is taking you? After looking, reject as you wish, just don't reject without looking - that's foolish

Every serious student of the Bible desires to understand the text, discover the biblical principles, and apply the truths to his or her life. This commentary is designed to help students, pastors, and Bible teachers understand 1 and 2 Peter in a simple manner. Working from the popular New International Version (NIV), the author provides helpful commentary on the text verse by verse. This verse-by-verse commentary is different from others in two respects. First, it is brief while some commentaries are unnecessarily wordy and verbose. Second, it is Pentecostal in outlook. This implies that we generally adhere to the doctrine of biblical inerrancy and adopt a literalist approach to the interpretation of the Bible. The major aim of this commentary is to expose readers to 1 and 2 Peter. Life is tough and difficult in general. Unfortunately, many Christians have been taught that they should only experience joys of being God's saints. In 1 Peter, Peter writes primarily for the readers of the epistle to stand firm in the true grace of God in the face of persecution and suffering. In 2 Peter, Peter writes to warn Christians about false teachers and to urge them to grow in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

If the reader is a strong believer in a Satan and is searching for truth, he or she will never think of Satan with the same perspective as before upon finishing this book. It draws from History and Scripture to provide harmonious answers to questions in context of God's love and purpose. That knowledge, truth, justice, righteousness are links in the symbolic chain, which binds evil as the Gospel Age metamorphoses into the Kingdom of God as willing hearts overcome fear, sorrow, guilt, greed, hate, prejudice, jealousy, etc. Evil fades from the hearts of most people as Jesus the Christ's Kingdom grows in righteousness and justice, love and mercy with willing minds creating or supporting hundreds of financial, mental, medical, physical and religious activities that counter evils plaguing mankind and improves the wellness of all. Evil; Apostle John calls it Satan, Devil, Serpent, Dragon, conceived in the minds of men, has brought neighbor against neighbor, nation against nation and religion against religion, but now evil is being bound as the Kingdom of Jesus the Christ slowly envelopes the earth.

In Spirit and in Truth encapsulates the idea that God wants to be our friend as well as the God we worship. It looks at what stops us from entering into a one-on-one relationship with Him and how this can be overcome, as well as the concept of living a lifestyle of pouring out our love (worship) to Him. The book also looks at worship and its true meaning, and to what extent music has to do with worshiping our God. In Spirit and in Truth is written with a scriptural outlook toward the reality of how God's manifested presence can reside within us and the outcome this can have on our society when we walk through life with the realization of this truth. This book is a short, easy read for all people who have a desire to know God more. It will either confirm your walk with Him or stretch you right out of your comfort zone and into the presence of God.
