About the Book
Time, for the human race, is a parenthesis on the line of eternity in which the individual has the opportunity to make decisions that affect where he will spend eternity. There are innumerable religions in the world, each of which insists that their doctrines are the true means of acquiring a relationship with a superior being and a place in eternity. Large masses of people embrace the tenets of the religion to which they are exposed during their formative years and never questioning the validity of its claims. Many others have no religious models to follow. Therefore, they form their own religious belief systems. However, there are multitudes from all types of religious affiliations that are searching for answers regarding the reality of God and on what happens after physical death. They have a genuine desire to know the truth about God and the way to attain eternal life. There are others that desire more knowledge about the God of the Bible they love and serve. I have written this book to assist these groups. I have tried to provide biblical answers to questions that true searchers have regarding God. I have also attempted to furnish believers with a format to help broaden their biblical knowledge. I encourage the reader to seek guidance and revelation from the Holy Spirit.
About the Author
My love for the bible and the treasures it contains began over a half century ago. Following my conversion at the age of thirty I had an unquenchable desire to know and understand the contents of the bible. Studying the bible is a true pleasure for me. During my early years my understanding of the bible was influenced by the doctrines of local dominational churches I attended. However, through personal bible study and exposure to other teachings outside my denomination, the Holy Spirit led me to embrace biblical truths not taught in my church. But, with all my studying I never fully grasped the magnitude of God’s grace. I was seventy eight years old when God gave me a greater understanding about the gospel of grace. For the next six years I concentrated my studies on the many facets of God’s grace. I discovered it encompasses all the ways and means that God relates to mankind. This book contains some of the revelations obtained from my studies. I pray it will be a catalyst to assist others who also have a passionate desire to know more about the aspects of the grace of God.
