| Publisher Description: This book (Approx. 154,172 words in length -- 113 Chapters) contains many of my book titles on the subject of Holy Bible doctrines from a fundamental Christian faith perspective. While some chapters include aspects of what some Christians refer to as "Pentecostal" or "Charismatic" beliefs, due to mentions of miraculous events and of the supernatural "gifts of the Spirit" as described in the New Testament, the majority of Bible teachings included, are beliefs held by a majority of fundamental Christian believers but with aspects included that you do not often hear coming from the pulpits of most evangelical churches due to the sometimes controversial nature behind them. If there is obviously well established scriptural-backing for doctrines that are taught within their proper biblical contexts, Christian believers should be given a chance to understand them as fully as God's Word permits and by revelation of the truths within them, as guided by the Holy Spirit. Certainly, I do not claim to have any sort of extra-revelation as a "special teacher" or as a self-proclaimed prophet of some type. I am simply a graduate of theological studies and a Bible teacher who has served in non-pastoral teaching positions and as a guest speaker to fundamental Christian churches, beginning in my youth. My calling has actually been to teach as a layperson, when opportunity was given and to use the avenue of writing to express these teachings as God has inspired me to do so. My belief is that God opened to me some of the deeper aspects of these doctrines as he has for many others, due to my intense desire to learn from His Word and to share it with others. Do I make mistakes as I present teaching from God's Word? I certainly do however, I approach the teaching of God's Word with great reverence for it and for God who inspired it and I am extremely cautious to teach only that which I truly and with firm conviction, believe to be what God's Word actually reveals. While there are certainly false preachers and teachers who purposefully pervert God's Word or who teach it from an evil motive, there are also sincere teachers like myself whose humanity causes them to make those occasional mistakes that are unintentional but inevitable. While it has sometimes been implied by Christians in some circles, that someone who is truly led by God's Spirit can never be in error or mistaken while under His Anointing to teach or preach, the fact is that while the human element is involved, man never becomes infallible when sharing truths (especially the finer points) from God's Word. With these statements in mind, I simply ask readers of this book to cautiously study the teachings I offer and to pray for God's leading, while comparing my commentaries to what the scriptures are saying on each subject addressed. Space is provided at the bottom of pages for notes to be added by the reader.
