By secular terms, I am/was very successful. I graduated HS as a Salutatorian and graduated at the top of my class at Case Western Reserve University with a B.A. (with Honors) and a B.S. degree. I completed college education by the age of 20, but began working full time when I was 19. I would go into more detail, but these variables impress those of a secular mind. I’m merely giving a background like Paul and the Apostles, so that you understand the grace of God and of Jesus Christ is exemplified in many people.
I was born and raised in a non-denominational church, albeit I attended various denominations over my lifetime (Lutheran, Baptist, Nazarene, Church of Christ, etc.). I had accepted Jesus Christ as my Savior when I was 12 years old during our annual revival services at my childhood church (Kirtland Bethel Bible Church). While I’d like to say my “church” experience was fantastic, I felt like Jesus Christ in the Jewish church at the time of Matthew 23. I’ve watched greed, corruption, false testimony, and various other items plaguing the church, not the love as spoken by Christ. While I never left the church, I tried to see if there was a more consistent religion out there, or whether I just had some bad luck. No other religion even held a close option (congregationally or philosophically), but it seemed like all churches had some issues that didn’t display perfection (hell, I’m not perfect either).
Around the timeframe of August/September of 2015, following various changes in my life (personal, work, spiritual), I was called to seminary and began taking classes at Liberty University. I’m about 2/3 of the way through the curriculum, but had to take a break to feed my flock (now a father of two children). When I began my break in seminary, I began to test the Spirits. The two aspects of theology that I began to focus on were eschatology (the study of the end times) and theodicy (how evil exists with an all good God). My mind wrestled more than what most could understand and I greatly understand what Christ said in John 16:23, “Truly, truly, I tell you, whatever you ask the Father in My name, He will give you.”
In November of last year, I was showed what Christ meant in Matthew 10, where he did not come to bring peace, but a sword. As the dichotomies have grown across the globe, I saw the potential for destructive logic to create an environment of anarchy. It was then when I could see the answers to my own questions. Simple story is, after much spiritual testing, I created the presentation and website here. And now that we are almost a year after my initial vision, and the outcomes are becoming more accurate, I wanted to follow Christ per Matthew 10:27, “What I tell you in the dark, speak in the light; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the housetops.”
I no longer hold to doctrines, just logic based on Christs parables and the wisdom of the Prophets and Apostles. I am a sinner saved by grace. My two biggest vices were women and booze, but not to the degree of sexual immorality, just to the point of putting my creator outside of His rightful position (number 1 in my life). I think people have to understand things per Matthew 22:36-40 and recognize how the laws apply to Exodus 20 and the Pentateuch. Just remember, per 1 Timothy 1:9, the “law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient” and per Jesus in Matthew 7:1, “judge not, lest ye be judged.”
I hope you find the information a blessing and I hope you find it before the actual end times occurs. I will write some FAQ’s for people to discuss the logic and principles for many of the conclusions I have come to (God willing). The doctrines of devils have manipulated the importance of Christ’s death and how the end times fulfills the promises to the Jews, per Romans 11:25-36.
Please note, I often leave blocks of Scripture because I want you to know the Father (God) and our Savior (Jesus Christ) and to test the interpretation as brought forth to me.
Your brother in Christ Jesus,
Joshua
