Seekers are more than welcome to visit our site! If you are a Seeker and are sincere, genuinely
seeking Truth that is genuine which will transform your reality from that sense of being incomplete
to a life that is abundant, you will be greatly benefited by investing the time to study the
articles and presentations within these pages!
We do not attempt to "debate" the validity or genuineness of Christianity nor of the Bible, but it
is important to know that God does not expect a person to have "blind", baseless faith in Him but
rather His Message to us is full of admonitions to gain knowledge, gain understanding!
Christians are not told to "grow in faith" ... but we are told to "grow in knowledge and in the
grace of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ"! Faith comes by LEARNING what God tells us and He chose
to speak to humanity through what we call the Holy Bible! Actually, more accurately, we should say
Holy Scriptures ... because Bible really means "book of books"! The Bible is a human compilation of
SCRIPTURES which were written according as God inspired certain holy men of the day.
I do believe that what we call the Bible today was compiled as a result of a group of men being led
by the Spirit of God to assimilate the holy scripts that God divinely ordered to be accomplished.
So when we say that the Bible is God's written message to humanity, we are saying that from
original writing to final assimilation, God orchestrated what this holy book of books says!
But, I cannot prove to you that what and who I have faith in is real, is genuine and is ultimate
truth! Only God can prove Himself to you ... at which point you will either accept His offer or
reject His offer of love and life both abundant and eternal.
How do I know this? Because I was just like many of you at one point in my life. At a time that I
desperately needed God to be real and to show Himself to me, I was devastatingly disappointed!
Those who I thought to be His people, His ministers, turned me away because they said I was beyond
hope! So, for years afterward, I resisted, resented, rejected and rebuked (and that's the nice
version) any Christian that crossed my path!
Then, years later, again in the cross hairs of destruction, I gave this God another chance! This
time He did "prove" Himself to me! This time He did bring people in my life that were truly His
people ... not religious pretenders, but genuine followers of Christ!
Now I'm not going to go further into my conversion experience because that is not the information
you need right now. You need evidence of Truth! Isn't that what you are seeking for? Evidence that
will lead you to the correct conclusion about God?
My father was a seeker ... he too finally come to know that God is the ultimate Truth! Just a few
months before he died, he declared to me that all his life he had been seeking truth and when he
finally found it, he realized that it had been there in front of him the whole time!
It is my desire that the articles and presentations you read in the following pages will be the
evidence that you need to not only conclude that Jesus is Truth, but that He is Life and our only
entrance to come into a genuine fellowship with God!
Most of these are not articles which I have authored, rather I included materials by several other
people who can present the evidence you are seeking with perspectives different than just my own,
with experiences different than my own.
Please contact me with any questions or issues you may have as you spend your time "seeking" with
us!
But be advised, I will only answer genuine questions, not be drawn into debate or arguing over
silly stuff as excuses to reject Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior ... you don't need to prove
anything to me, if you choose to reject Christ, you don't need to argue with me to justify that
choice!
But sincere discussion seeking answers are always welcome and will be answered just as quickly as I
can get to them!
Thank you for spending your time "seeking truth" with True Hope Churches &
Ministries!
