-A Preface-
A Preface to His Story, subjects, topics, relevant, themes of Biblical connotations seems to be in order to let the readers know the purpose of the author.
My short story is that many years ago it was thought to write about God’s story to keep it simple and tell in a manner so my kids could understand the complex issues. But the timing, education and experiences were lacking back then. Now there are grandchildren to tell the story to. So here it is: KISS = Keep It Simple Saint.
Simply put, it is to tell what has been gleaned from His Word over the past decades, and to keep it from being an erudite treatise on the Bible, but the simple plan God put into motion so that “even a child could understand it.” And yet it is meant for everyone of all ages and backgrounds (cultures) in hopes that those who would want to see the real beauty of the character of God, His Son, Jesus, and the workings of His Spirit to lift us up to His peace, light and hope of the coming future He has promised on an earth made new.
If the author can succeed in this endeavor, then he has done his appointed job and peace reigns within.
If there are those, and there are many, who hold a different viewpoint on specific topics want to contest what is presented, they are free to do so. However, there will be no response for a debate, as it is the author’s conviction that the Word of God cannot be contested for He says “So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth, it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereunto I sent it.” — Isaiah 55:11, and in another place; “I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be forever: nothing can be put to it, nor anything be taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear before him.”— Ecclesiastes 4:14, and “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. —James 1:17, so that this promise is alive to us all: “In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began; . .” — Titus 1:2.
