SHALOM!

WELCOME!

UPDATED 11/19/09

We introduce you to this FREE site and perhaps, for the first time, to the writings of A. P. Adams, Hannah Hurnard, Ray and Doris Prinzing, and other spiritually lead authors.  Our purpose through this web site is to provide other thoughts and interpretations of scripture as each author has been lead by the Spirit of God. We embrace no denomination or any other type of "isms" that would cause division within the body of Jesus Christ. Other than Jesus Christ, we lift no man, no doctrine, no creed; we do recognize and declare the sovereignty of God and His love for His creation. In this, our "freedom," we speak quite openly on revelation that many denominational organizations are unable to share—"God was (is) in Christ personally reconciling the world (mankind) to Himself —not imputing (counting) their trespasses unto them (sins against them)." 2 Corinthians 5:18-20. Before you even began to live, you were set FREE to receive all that God had/has purposed in your life. This is Spiritual Truth and is testified by scripture "For God SO LOVED the world...." John 3:16. (Reference Romans 5:8-19; Colossians 1:19-20). We take a further step in this "freedom" and quote John Whittle, from his book, man alive⁽¹⁾, "On the whole men know nothing of the dimension of spirit, though we are spirits, the very offspring of God who is called in the Bible 'the Father of spirits.' This unity is so clear a fact that we can expect to live a life of true spontaneity in which, to borrow a daring phrase of Norman Grubb's, 'We forget God and live!' I couple that statement with the declaration from St. Augustine, who sounds equally shocking when he says we are to 'LOVE GOD and do as we please!'" It is clear that these writers had received revelation and that Christ, the Anointed One fulfilled God's purpose in the reconciliation of His creation. God through His love IS manifesting His purpose, righteousness by faith and not through the law. Once human pride is removed the whole matter is on a different plane—"believing instead of achieving." ( Romans 3:27-28 J.B. Phillips Translation). As each person surrenders themselves to the Lord they move out of death and into Life. In this freedom each child is given the ability to manifest faith and love: remembering that without Love a child of God "is nothing"
              We expand this awareness of "freedom in the Spirit" as we quote from Arthur P. Adam's book, The Spirit of The Word, chapter titled, "We are God's Workmanship.” Adams writes, "The so called fall of man and redemption as its consequent, are a part of the original plan of God—they are steps in the carrying out of that plan; in fact God controls and directs 'all things' to the furtherance of His own councils." Again we state a truth that prior to the foundation of time God loved His creation and although He "penned" mankind into "disobedience," (Romans 11:32 - J. B. Phillips Translation - 1972) or "unbelief." [KJV] He called into being the redemption of that creation through His Son, Jesus Christ, Yeshua the Messiah, The "Lamb of God." We continue the expanded illumination of "freedom" by referencing the writings of Ray and Doris Prinzing and especially their book, The Triumphant Way, Chapter 2, GOD'S TRIUMPHANT PURPOSE. In addition we also encourage the searcher to feast from our recent posting of the Prinzing's A People With a Purpose. Although written a few years back, its focus is centered in "present truth."
                The Spirit of The Word, the name we have adopted for this web site, declares two truths: #1. "The words that I speak unto you, they are spirit and they are life."— Jesus, and #2. "The letter killeth, but the Spirit giveth life."— Paul. We search for life and accordingly we embrace the Spirit of Truth, "Howbeit when he, the Spirit of Truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth." John 16:13. Prior to Pentecost and certainly following the giving of the promise of the Father (The Holy Spirit and all Spiritual gifts), the Spirit has moved upon God's children with signs and wonders—no different than today. Although the institutionalizing of denominational religion has seemed to cease the movement of the Spirit, in reality, we find through the centuries that the Spirit has manifested the glory of God by those who have surrender themselves to His covering, to the intimate embrace of divine love. In all the writings that we present we ask every reader to please seek the leading of the Holy Spirit and allow the Spirit to move and challenge your thought process. In this challenging let it be an instrument of bringing you to a greater intimate communion with the Lord. Hold dear to your spirit, "Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; One Lord, one faith, one baptism, One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all." Ephesians 4:3-6. The song of Love through a heavenly Sound is calling the Bride of Christ to come into unity and in that unity we are given the pleasure to pray for Israel—to pray for Jerusalem.

                    Our wish, our prayer for ALL—freely come to this site—freely receive ALL that the Spirit gives, and then freely leave— leave more free than when you first entered.

"The Shining Hour of Departure" by Hannah Hurnard.

We are now adding the illumination given to and released from Hannah Hurnard. The first article we are sharing is "The Shining Hour of Departure, (for Elderly People)." Although Hannah's intent, perhaps, was to write to the "elderly" the revelation given is for all ages...to those embracing "the continuing on" and those who have experienced a loss of a dear one, a family member. One of the revelations she shares is that, "When we put off these mortal bodies, it means that we pass beyond the reach of everything familiar, out into a completely unknown world and surroundings― and the unknown terrifies some of us very much indeed. But I wonder if this too is really only another old bogey! For remember, really we are only returning to where we came from. Our spirits have all come from God, ( Eccl. 12:7) "The Father of spirits," Hebrews 12:9 and we are going back to Him." This is indeed a short article and we are confident that all readers, reading through the Spirit, will find PEACE and great illumination.

A WORK IN PROGRESS 01/10/2010
THE WHISPERS OF HIS REDEMPTION

The Spirit continues expanded revelation through Ray and Doris and in this next presentation we share a heart beat from Ray as stated in the Preface. Ray writes, "The wonder of God's tremendous purpose being wrought out through the ages, with the subjection of creation to the bondage of vanity, and then the ultimate deliverance there-from, is so glorious; it leaves one fumbling for words to tell, and at best, we can only speak forth "The Whispers of His Redemption." With Paul we can truly cry out, 'O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments, and His ways past finding out!' [Rom. 11:33]. Ray continues to share a message of acceptance of "present truth" and in so doing expands the continuing Redemptive work of the Lord.

SUBJECT MATTER LIBRARY

RECONCILIATION OF ALL MANKIND....not a myth but TRUTH. A. P. Adams wrote, "God himself endeavors to conciliate man,-to reconcile man to Himself! The idea would be absurd, that God was in Christ reconciling Himself to the world:-endeavoring to pacify Himself! But the truth is most blessed and comforting that 'God was in Christ reconciling the world unto Himself; not charging any man any sin!" (2 Corth. 5:19) This is 'glad tidings' or "good news" indeed! J. B. Philips translation of the Epistle to the Romans 3:27, "...the whole matter is now on a different plane─believing instead of achieving." For too many generations we have been taught we must achieve something that was given to each one by the grace of our Lord.

REVELATION... The Revelation of Jesus Christ...a blessing. Let the Spirit "breathe" on you as you open this book and read. This is the Revelation of Jesus, the Christed One, and His in-working with each child of God. No longer a book of "damnation" but of salvation and redemption...it is light on your journey.

ALL THINGS..."In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth." Genesis 1:1. "For thou didst create all things; by thy will they existed and were created." Rev. 5:11. "I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things." Isaiah 45:7.

BIBLE CORRECTION...Many denominational church organizations state, "the word of God, the Bible, is inerrant." Inerrant does mean "it is error free." If we error not, the Word spoken by God is errorless; however, the Bible has been translated many times, and by many translators. As a point of awareness we submit, "The spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets." (1 Corth. 14:32).

MASTER LIBRARY

We have divided our Master Library into two divisions. "Part One" list those writers with expanded subject matter and multiple books. "Part Two" list single article writers or writers of multiple books where we have not expanded their works at this time.

PART ONE
Titles Authors

1) The Spirit of The Word - A collection of 29 spiritual illuminations of God's purpose in His creation. They bring "light" to the Christian who has been lead, by the Spirit, out of organized religion into the freedom IN/THRU Jesus Christ and the True God that is revealed in 1 John. A new "BEGINNING" focused in the redemptive act of Calvary which manifested the Love of God towards His creation as He, God, thru His Christ proclaimed the "Good News" which is the reconciliation of mankind. You have nothing to prove thru physical effort....it is now on a different plane.....God thru His Christ did it all and your part is ONLY through the Spirit....through FAITH.

Adams, Arthur P.- Monthly writings were printed in Beverly, Mass., between 1885 to 1886 now brought together in book form.

2 )Spirit of Revelation - An expansion of revelation for the journey of the "FREED" Christian. For those who have been called "up, to a higher spiritual under- standing," the Spirit, thru the Prinzings, manifests spiritual insight of Reconciliation, UNION, LOVE, His "Purposed" revealed and the Book of Revelation blessing. These are books, articles, of "revelation" in the progression of the God-child.
We have recently added another writing of the Prinzing's "Whispers of His Judgments"
and are excited to note that God's judgments are based, yes they are centered in Love.

Prinzing, Ray and Doris - A 40 year journey of writing in the spirit- experiencing the inward reality of the indwelling Christ to God's purpose fulfilled in His creation.
