OVERALL INDEX OF BLOG–LINKS

This is a preliminary outline of the entire contents I would like, God willing, to write about. I will gradually be adding links to the nested subject outlines to which the links on this overall outline page point. I will then fill in links found in the nested outlines as pages are completed. (Many pages have already been completed, but finishing the whole outline will likely take a years!) Be watching for any new material that interests you.

The Son of Man has Power on Earth to Forgive Sins

When Jesus said that the son of man has power to forgive sins on Earth, he was referring to his humanity–and ours. God has already forgiven. Like Jesus, we have the power–and the mission–to offer forgiveness on Earth.

The Power of My Forgiveness and Unforgiveness, Revisited

My forgiveness or unforgiveness of you has real power. If I hold onto a grudge against you, or you hold onto a grudge against me, it binds both of us, limits the Body of Christ, and affects the whole world, until it is released. So we must properly deal with grudges.

Music, Prophecy and the Hand and Voice of God

Explanations of Scriptures that support the statement that true musicians, whether they know Christ or not, have at least a buried or potential gift of prophecy. Explores the vital spiritual role of music, a part of the image of God in us.

Time, life, and congratulations to my granddaughter

It’s true–time moves faster as you age. dt/dt, the rate of movement of time with respect to itself, should always equal 1, but it doesn’t. When you’re 3 and your favorite question is “why?”, dt/dt is about 0.0001. You want everything NOW, and everything takes FOREVER, until after you “grow up.” When you’re approaching 70, and your favorite question is…

And be in us our King of Peace

The hymn “O Come, O Come, Emmanuel” celebrates the arrival of God among us in the form of Jesus.

It is written to a historian–a single person–who will find it on some archive that contains portions of this blog in some future year, likely far in the future. Therefore, while I am posting this note, I will neither make a video of it nor actively promote it. The prophecy…

The importance of broad family and kindred groups to God’s work on Earth and my initiative to my own.

Part 7I. My Personal Experiences With Prophecy, Presented for Review and Comment.

What happened when I prayed for the gift of prophecy in the middle of 2000. How did God answer? The jury is still out. Discussion is invited.

Part 7H: Is God Speaking? Determining Who is Speaking.

God gives us tests to use to determine whether a message we hear came from him or from somewhere else. Most of these tests apply regardless of whether the message comes from an internal voice or through the mouth or writings of another person who claims to speak for God. They start with the overarching test “do I recognize my Shepherd’s voice in what is said?”

God’s Work and Voice in Me, Part 7G: Didn’t the Apostles Say God Was About to Quit Speaking to Us?

The blog post discusses various scriptures in an attempt to address the topic of whether God ceased to speak after the Bible was finished. The author contests teachings that this is the case, arguing that scriptures often thought to support this view require numerous assumptions. The post suggests that the divine dialogue continues, challenging readers to approach scripture with less literal interpretation and more open-minded understanding. The author plans to discuss each scripture in greater detail in subsequent posts and videos.
