PERSONAL FROM THE AUTHOR

      This book is information I report and you decide its relevance to a logical path for our intended destiny. 

I have researched this information for myself for 37 years now; often times finding it hard to believe the truth about what I thought was true and religions that contradict what Jesus said to do. I share this work with you for your consideration and an awakening to the free spirit we are born with, to prove all things by the Word of God, the bible. Change is hard for anyone in any form, especially what mainstream religions have taught us about life, death, and here after. The certainty of our physical death puts all of mankind on the same level.

 

Ecclesiastes 3:19-22  

For that which befalls the sons of men befalls beasts; even one thing befalls them: as the one dies, so dies the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all is vanity.  (20)  All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again.  (21)  Who knows the spirit of man that goes upward, and the spirit of the beast that goes downward to the earth?  (22)  Wherefore I perceive that there is nothing better, than that a man should rejoice in his own works; for that is his portion: for who shall bring him to see what shall be after him?

Each day babies are born into a world they had no choice in the making, yet they must grow up and learn to make choices for their future in a world of politics and religious traditions. What I have researched goes against the tide of 3rd Century doctrines that are still practiced today. The bible itself predicts knowledge will increase for mankind and it certainly has with the accumulated information just in the last 20 years. Have we learned anything new about our destiny in this process of acquired knowledge?  

     When you read this book, and consider the information along with biblical proof texts provided, I believe you will be blessed with a logical understanding of the deceit by Satan and people of power from history that causes confusion about the divine purpose for mankind’s existence. It will give you an insight for why the world is in such political and religious diversity today, and hope concerning the things predicted for our future. In the light of the bible, some academic historical events which have been predicted will be demonstrated to have already been fulfilled. You will benefit from the current issues of our day as they are starting to head the nations down a path of prophetic events in our not too distant future ushering in a new world order by the enforcement of man’s style of government.

      I am providing a large amount of foundation background information to lead you in a comprehensive and chronological view of the broad movements of God that inspired me to document my years of research and eventually share them with you in the book, Why You Were Born. Prophesies are revealing the Plan of God for mankind’s ultimate destiny.

      In my book, Why You Were Born, I start at the very beginning of mankind’s appearance on earth and how God works with individuals and later begins to work with nations to prepare mankind for intended destiny. This book surely requires more details of the physical and spiritual applications of God’s Plan for mankind; but hopefully it will raise issues for you to consider. I believe a firm background of information is an indispensable priority for investigation to any complete eschatological system for understanding information and prophesies that lead to our fulfilled destiny. 

      A framework of tremendous revelations will appear concerning the times of the Gentiles and the program for Israel to learn the aspects of God’s redemption plan for mankind. 

      The fact that a biblical book is apocalyptic does not render its content obscure or uncertain. Apocalyptic revelation is a genuine form of divine communication which is recognized by most all conservative scholars and theologians regarding the ultimate destiny of humanity.

      The interpretation of apocalyptic writings requires close attention to eschatology of timelines as they apply to its revelation. Therefore, a scriptural history from the very beginning of the bible that will later prove its validation to the plan of God in many of the later prophesies. These I will cover in a coming book that is in manuscript work at this time. The New World Order, Armageddon, and Beyond.

      In the light of world conditions today and bible prophecy, it is possible to understand with a reasonable amount of certainty many of the events that will precede the second coming of Christ. For Christians living in the age of grace today and are truly searching for understanding these tough times, this fundamental background information will shed a broad light upon mankind’s destiny just ahead of us. 

      I urge my readers to take the time to absorb the foundation information for interpretation and the historic past information that must be considered. History is not an easy subject to present and keep its information relevant to us today and future events. However, it is necessary work; coupled with patience to plow through the background history to understand with confidence and peaceful certainty our intended destiny designed by God. You will acquire a peaceful certainty in God’s great master plan for mankind including your opportunity to live forever, a life far greater than we can imagine! We are born, not by our choice, but we can make choices for what our ultimate destiny can be when we believe in the Invisible Creator God and His Word.
