Introduction:
Letter #1 to Seeker uses the
phrases, "Put on", "Stand firm" and "Take
up", from Ephesians 6, to introduce the seeker to the realities of
spiritual warfare and discipleship. Because this is the first letter
exchanged with the seeker, the format is somewhat different
than the rest of
The Letters. As I read through The Letters though, I am amazed by the
transformation in style that takes place (and I wrote them). Hopefully,
you will enjoy this transformation as well.
Letter #2 to Seeker addresses prayer,
judgmentalism and forgiveness. This letter is a "how to" on
prayer, and compares the power of prayer to meditation. Additionally,
this letter also speaks of mercy, motives and righteousness.
Letter #3 to Seeker speaks about the
EKKLESIA (The true Body of Messiah; The
Church), and exposes the difference between religion and faith. This letter
also exposes the Nicolaitans, and calls for
the revival and reformation of the Body. The Full Gospel is presented here as
well.
Furthermore, our manner of assembly is discussed, and the true nature of
the long desired revival is uncovered.
Letter #4 to Seeker, talks of
Elohim's
essence and nature, and unmasks the truth, mannerism and realities of
His discipline in our lives. The fact that "Elohim is Love" is
revealed here, just as pride is also exposed. This is a wonderful exposé
on our Elohim, and should help any seeker to see Him for Who He truly is.
Letter #5 introduces Seeker
to
humility, the spiritual gifts and the correct administration of Elohim's
power. Abuses to the gifts of The Holy Spirit are touched upon lightly, while
obedience to Elohim's will is discussed at length. The wrath of Elohim is
also unveiled, allowing us to see even further into the full nature of
the One with Whom we have to deal.
Letter #6 to Seeker addresses
The Holy Spirit, Scripture and the issue and matter of TRUTH. Humanism, relativism and
accommodation are all revealed here, just as morality and zeal are
exposed. The Holy Spirit is the primary focus of this letter though, and
His role within the Trinity, along with the Father and
the Son,
is truly magnificent..
Letter #7 to Seeker begins a series on
reconciliation. This note discusses the Curse of Sin, as levied against
Satan, Adam and Eve (and therefore, unto the rest of us) in the Garden of
Eden. Predetermination is discussed, and the matter of "time",
as Elohim may view it, is also revealed. The fall in the Garden of
Eden, however, and the events immediately following the fall, are the
primary focus of this note.
Letter #8 to Seeker adds to the
discussion on reconciliation, and speaks toward the Consequence of Sin. This
letter is extremely prophetic and exhortational, because it reveals the
true nature of sin, and discusses issues like: Abortion, Adultery,
Divorce, Feminism, Homosexuality and a myriad of other watershed issues. Ahab and
Jezebel are also uncovered here, and some very deep lines are drawn in the
sand at this juncture.
Letter #9 to Seeker discusses
the Cure for our Sin, and therefore, takes
reconciliation to another level. Although YEHOWAH
has certainly been discussed in the earlier letters, He
is introduced here as Messiah and Master. The realities of forgiveness,
righteousness, reverence and overcoming sin are also spoken of in this note,
and Lucifer and his motives are exposed as well.
Letter #10 to Seeker
finalizes the
discussion on reconciliation by presenting the reality of our Freedom
to Choose over Sin. The fact that humanity is made in Elohim's image is brought
to the forefront of our discussion, and this letter exposes the
deception behind the "once saved, always saved" theology.
Here, faith is revealed, reconciliation through YEHOWAH
ha Mashiach is sought;
and repentance is the call of the day. This is the last of the original
letters to Seeker.
Letter #11 is a
transitional message that moves us from the Seeker phase, into
the more advanced phase of a Disciple. The thrust of
this note, therefore, is discipleship. YEHOWAH as
Elohim is given greater exposure, while the acronym, P*R*A*I*S*E*R, is
used to reveal the purpose, requirements, assurances, instructions,
signs, expense and rewards of faithful discipleship. Immersion baptism
is also discussed.
Letter #12 to Disciple
covers the
area known as "works of faith". The equation, Faith + 0 =
salvation, is introduced, while the truth about works in practice, and
obedience unto YEHOWAH, is discussed at length. Issues such as integrity and hope are also
stressed.
Letter #13 begins a four-part
discussion on our Spiritual gifts. Here, the lessons of Letter #5
are expanded upon, as the disciple is informed that The Holy Spirit has in fact gifted
him. While this letter once again discusses the gifts in general terms,
the following three letters are much more specific. This letter also
contains a questionnaire that
will prove useful in discovering those gifts which the The Holy Spirit may have
given you. The unique nature of each individual is also exposed, and
humility is once again brought to the forefront.
Letter #14 to Disciple
details the Sign
gifts: Prophecy, Gifts of Healing, Gifts of
Miracles, Language of the Nations and Interpretation of Languages of the
nations ("Tongues") are all discussed at
length. The false use of these gifts is also revealed, but a great deal
of time is spent encouraging Disciple in the faithful use and
application of the gifts.
Letter #15 to Disciple
addresses
the extent of the Support gifts. The true nature of the gifts of
Apostle, Evangelist, Prophet, Pastor and Teacher are all revealed here.
This letter further exposes the hireling and Nicolaitan, while also
revealing the diluted nature of each of the gifts. Overseers and elders
are discussed here too, just as the watershed issue of female pastor's and
teachers (over adult men) is exposed. The "Master's Supper" is spoken of
here as well.
Letter #16 to Disciple
speaks very
specifically of the Service gifts. The importance and true nature of the
gifts of Administration, Leadership / Authority, Service / Helps,
Discernment, Exhortation, Faith, Giving, Mercy, Word of Knowledge and
Word of Wisdom are all covered. Deacons are also discussed here, because
of the false teachings surrounding this gift, just as the false nature
of the tithe is exposed.
Letter #17 to Disciple
talks about
how we are to live as disciples in a "non-Christian" world. Issues like
humility, thankfulness, obedience, faithfulness, integrity, honor,
truthfulness, reverence, whole-heartedness, submissiveness, mercy, joy,
love and a great deal more, are discussed with candor and ease. The
fruit of The Holy Spirit is shown here, just as the deeds of the flesh are
openly revealed. The fact that we are to be dead to self, yet alive unto
YEHOWAH, is discussed here as well, and in reality, this letter etches
even further into the line drawn in the sand in Letter
#8.
Letter #18 to Disciple
reveals my thoughts and comprehension for/about the tribulation period, and the snatching
(rapture); and
speaks directly against the pre-tribulation rapture teaching
that is popular today. This
letter is deeply prophetic, in that it reveals the event of the
snatching in its entirety. The mysteries of the kingdom of Elohim, and YEHOWAH's
teachings about Noah and Lot, are used to expose the revelation of the
snatching, while
the Two Witnesses and the 144,000 chosen ones of Israel
are introduced and discussed.
Letter #19 is the last of
the original Letters to Disciple. Some
closing thoughts are noted, and a few bits of prophecy are revealed. Revelation 6 and 7
are quoted and discussed, and the truth of the 144,000 chosen ones of
Israel is discussed at length.
Letter #20 is addressed to The
Brethren, and is a brief warning to the EKKLESIA
(Church), reminding them of the spiritual warfare
being fought for our souls. False prophets and false teachers are
multiplying exponentially in these days; people who are boldly declaring themselves as "Elohim's
Messenger", or "The Messenger", or "One of The
Witnesses", and are proclaiming that they
are either the incarnation of Eliyeh, or are the end time Apostles sent
to lead us to a deeper anointing as "fellow Apostles". Beware the false prophets and false
teachers!
Letter #21 to The
Brethren is a prophetic message to the Body of YEHOWAH
ha Mashiach. This work announces the Signs of YEHOWAH's Return - from Matthew 24 - while further exposing the great
harlot Babylon, and proclaiming the full Gospel of the Kingdom of Elohim
through YEHOWAH our Messiah.
Letter #22 to Disciple
has been drafted in response to numerous inquiries into the
matter of the Trinity or Triune Nature of Elohim. In the course of
discovery in preparation for this writing, however, much else was
learned about the Names and Titles of our Elohim, and these matters
are discussed as well. This is a must read for every Disciple of
YEHOWAH ha Mashiach! Furthermore, it was
during this particular study that I was moved to begin working on The
Exalted Name Bible™, which, now complete, was
nine (9) years in the making. All Scripture quoted within The Letters of Faith
has been taken from The
Exalted Name Bible™.
Letter #23 to
Disciple is a throwback teaching more in the style of the original nineteen
letters. The topic of this discussion is Spiritual
Warfare, and it is being revisited from Letter #1, because as we enter the latter days
of this dispensation, the activities of the devil are increasing, and we
must be knowledgeable of his endeavors. Scripture, for example, speaks of things like, "The
Spirit of
Life" versus a contradicting "spirit of deep sleep".
This letter unveils thirteen distinct and unique areas of conflict that
exist between every negatively affecting spirit that the evil one has
placed in the world today, and every Positively Affective Spirit emanating from the throne of
Elohim,
that has been sent to the Body of YEHOWAH as a "Ministering
Spirit" through The Holy Spirit. The battle is RAGING today, beloved, and this letter
unveils some of the primary areas of conflict.
