Acknowledgments
Foremost, I must give thanks and acknowledgment to The Holy Spirit. Thank you for finding and pursuing me in loving kindness unto the day of redemption; so that I now bear the seal of my salvation with great confidence. Furthermore, I thank you for spiritual growth and development. Being inspired to transcribe this manuscript [from my Spirit-man] I also humbly acknowledge the presence of a Ghost
author. You are the author and ultimate teacher of all things good.
I would also like to acknowledge all those who have over the years shared any words of edification, direction, and/or console; regardless of whether it has been for a moment’s breeze or a more enduring season.
Preface
We often as people take shortcuts into understanding complexities, the unknown, and our surroundings. We use statements such as I think that
or I believe it means
to express our interpretation on the matter. This can be particularly dangerous in relationships we are trying to cultivate. Instead of letting a direct association shape our mind (and thus outlook) we infer based on our past experiences, history, and what others exclaim about the person in question. It is often best to ask the source directly rather than using inference. Even better is when the source unveils itself by choice and not by force — this is a revelation!
As it says in scripture, THE SECRET THINGS BELONGS UNTO THE LORD OUR GOD: BUT THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE REVEALED BELONG UNTO US AND TO OUR CHILDREN FOR EVER.
[Deut. 29:29]
In my sincere hunger for the Word of God, the Lord graciously, and very generously, feed me. Having eaten good myself so that I too may feed others that which satisfies the soul. One of the things I’ve noticed in ministering to [particularly young adult] Christians is that many are relatively biblically illiterate. But in a world of offense we must be ready to give an account for what, who, and why we believe the Holy Bible. As it says in scripture, STUDY TO SHOW THYSELF APPROVED UNTO GOD, A WORKMAN THAT NEEDETH NOT TO BE ASHAMED, RIGHTLY DIVIDING THE WORD OF TRUTH.
[2 Tim. 2:15] I pray that this book will help educate, convert, build up, and spur non-Christians and Christians alike.
Although being an inspired writing, this book is not meant to add to the current canon of scripture. The Word of God is complete from Genesis (the beginning) to Revelations (the end).
The following four subsections are addressed to three general groups of people:
Non-believers of Jesus Christ
The Jewish People
Believers of Jesus Christ
Believers — Advanced (Prophetic) Studies
The message in each section is fit to be heard by all who will listen. Please note that in order to get the full impact it is necessary for you to actually look up and read the referenced scriptures.
I encourage readers to visit the section most applicable to them first, and then continue onto other sections.
To God the Father, and His Son Jesus Christ, be the glory — for ever and ever. Amen!
Greeting
I, Vivian Ellis, Jr., a prophet of Jesus Christ, do write these things to the glory of the Father in Heaven. [Eph. 3:8-12] The Holy One has appointed me such that the lumpy places be made smooth and the crooked places be made straight. [John 3:34, 1 Cor. 4:15-16] Let all who have received from God ears to hear, hear; and those with eyes to see, see. [Matt. 13:16, Is. 32:3-8]
I desire no honor of man, for I am just a vessel; created by His workmanship according to His perfect purpose and unto which His Spirit is poured into and does overflow. [1 Cor. 4:1-4, 9:16, Col. 1:23-29; Jos. 6:19, 2 Tim. 2:20-21] Seek me not, but render unto God that which is His. [Job 33:4]
Even as I have not spared any knowledge or mysteries given me of Christ Jesus, I charge that you do the same. [John 16:25, Acts 20:27] For IT IS MORE BLESSED TO GIVE THAN TO RECEIVE
and FREELY YE HAVE RECEIVED, [SO] FREELY GIVE.
[Acts 20:33-35, Matt. 10:6-8]
To the only God, Jesus Christ, be all the glory, all the honor, all the power, and all dominion for ever and ever. Amen. [1 Cor. 4:20]
Non-believers of Jesus Christ
The Good News
The message is the same timeless warning of old: REPENT
and BE BAPTIZED
for the kingdom of God is here, and the time of His dominion near (in both Heaven and Earth). [Matt. 3:1-12, Jude 14-15, Acts 2:38] Herein lays the simplicity of the gospel (good news
): GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD, THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE.
[John 3:16] Sin has separated us from our eternal estate of life with the Father & Creator of all things. [Is. 59:1-2] But God Himself, yea the Messiah and Son Jesus, came down from Heaven to be a propitiation for our sins. [Rom. 3:25] The Lord Jesus died on the cross, suffered in the belly of the beast, and rose again the third day. [Matt. 12:38-42, John 3:13-15] This was done that those who (1) confess their sins and (2) turn to God — (3) asking with a repentant heart for forgiveness, (4) believing in His Christ [the Living Word] (life & resurrection), and (5) ask for a new beginning with the Holy Spirit — will be saved. [Rom. 10:9-13, John 6:37, Rev. 3:20]
What is it to believe, then to hear His Word and do accordingly? [Ps. 25:8-10, Matt. 10:38-39, 1 Pt. 2:24]
The Way
There is only one way into the kingdom of Heaven — His name is Jesus, THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE
. [John 1:18, 14:1-11, 10:1-9] THE
because Jesus is the definitive. [John 6:37, Acts 4:7-12] Yes, Jesus of Nazareth walked a perfect life, did many miracles, good works, and spoke excellent principles of life; but to leave it here in your mind is of no use. [John 2:23, 20:30-31] Yes, Jesus was a prophet of God; but so
