The Sad, Sordid
History of The People of God
This is the first article in a series of articles that, when complete, will explain
how the Prophets concealed the first of the seven messages hidden in the Hebrew
Scriptures by their use of the ancient Hebrew idioms “build a house,” “raise
up a seed,” and “make a name.” It explains how the parabolic imagery related to the “house” of Israel, “house” of David and “house” of God fits together with these idioms—which all mean “engender a son.” It also includes a discussion of how the ritual prostitution of the “harlot” fits into the overall scheme of things.
Questions & Answers
The first Answer in this column deals with the issue of the lies and liars Satan has introduced into the Church. It first discusses some of the lies the Protestant Reformers were not able to see through, then explains a bit about the origin of the theory of Dispensationalism before describing circumstances that led to the lie that resulted in Judaism. Another Answer describes a couple of “mystical” experiences the author had as a youth. The final Answer reveals the one false belief he once held that made him the most angry—at God.
