FOREWORD

 THE CHILD OF IMAGINATION

It is said, “That INTEREST is the child of imagination.”  So from this we see that if we are ever to gain one’s interest this “child of imagination” must come into play.  How do we get others to take an interest in the things of God that we so desperately want them to have?  Some of our best teachers that we can remember from our school days were able to do this, thus we remember them.  They really got our attention and we learned something under their teaching.  As for the others, we learned very little, and the only memory we have of them is boredom.  We hated attending that class and couldn’t wait for the bell to ring.  Well, in application to spiritual matters, are we being boring; so that those that we share God’s truth want to run away from us and attempt to avoid us?  It is my hope that this book will gain your interest, and then teach you how to stir this needed thing of interest so others will as well.

How do I gain your interest?  I once read a story of how during World War II soldiers were able to remember things that they would have never remembered in peace time.  Why was this?  What was the difference?  In peace time their lives were not at stake; in war time it was.  If I could get you to see that your life is at stake, would it gain your interest?  I would have to get you beyond just right or wrong and bring you to the real truth of a matter, which would be a matter of life or death.  This matter of Spiritual truth reaches beyond right or wrong and desires to get us to see that it is this matter of life or death.

It is March of 2011 and the News has been flooded with a devastating earthquakes, floods and nuclear power plant tragedy in Japan.  We sit in our comfortable living rooms and watch it all on T.V.  It gains our interest only in that it has happen to “them” and not us.  Do you think the interest that we have in this matter has the same interest to those in Japan?  I believe you know the answer, “no.”  Their interest is only one thing, survival; things that may have once had there attention now no longer matter.  Their priorities changed over night. 

What would it take for us to change some of our priorities?  Would it takes such tragic happenings to gain our interest to see this life for what it truly is, temporary, here today and possibly gone tomorrow.  All this doesn’t really gain our interest or change us; it doesn’t hit us, “yet.” 

Question; Do we need to pray for such matters in hope that this might gain people’s interest in God and eternal matters?  You see these events unfold and find that rather then getting people to focus more on eternal matters, it sometimes works the other way having them focusing more on the cares and affairs of this life.  So, no, I would not pray for such things for anyone, knowing how distracting these kinds of events can be with our losing all comforts.  Do we pray then for happy times that would increase our comforts?  Prayers like this would be more welcomed then prayers of dooms day.  Well, what do we pray?  Apart from seeing events, and the reasons behind tragic and good times, we will never really know what to pray.  So, I ask now as I type this, “Father, what would you say to this?”  His reply, “In the “mist” of it all you wouldn’t think to pray anything, not seeing the events around you unfolding as I have so degreed.  What may appear tragic to you, to Me it really isn’t.  I do what I have to do, first, to reveal where a people are in their mindset.  A mindset being either distracted rooted in the temporal, or focusing on that eternal, where nothing can touch it.  What you have seen lately in your present age is nothing more than a repeat of the story I presented for all to read, the story of Job.  It appears too many others as a story of tragedy, yet from a different view point, it was not.   Job had lost, family members, home and prestige, and for this I, God, have been blamed; or others taking the opposite stance, blaming the devil.  Both are wrong.  It is the way that I have set this experience up to be.  Earth truly does moan and groan for that which is lacking in humanity; the ability to handle any event that might occur.  I have shared these things to you before, do you recall?

My reply, “Yes, I do remember.  It was You who subjected this world to futility (an unreality, like the events that have occurred recently in Japan and other areas of this world)…yet, in subjecting this world to such extremes, it was done “IN HOPE’…a hope that humanity might turn to you and allow You to give them the needed power to handle anything that would come at them in this world.  Yet instead of turning to You, they have sought to come at it with what limited resources they could gain through a collective accumulated knowledge; things like Transhumanism whose resources will prove to be limited, and working in a direction that takes us further away from any solution God has offered replacing it with unknown limited and possible devastating consequences.  For example in the area of technology and warning systems, in Japan they have one of the most sophisticated prevention systems in the world in place.  All of it failed them.  If I or anyone would suggest to them to “turn to God” for protection, we would be mocked and laughed at, being labeled “religious”.  Those in Japan and other places like California have grown accustom to events like earthquakes and have over time adjusted to it with building codes, emergency procedures etc. to the point they have a false sense, even a cockiness about human efforts to save one’s self.   From being seated with You in heavenly places I have seen why You do what You do, which is always based in love; a love beyond any idea we might have of love; and hope of saving all from such tragedies as we are seeing in this world today.  This idea of Your “doing things” isn’t as it might appear.  It is many times Your withdrawing, and watching “in hope” that maybe one, just one individual might turn to You and allow You to DO what You do best, save them. 

I recall scriptures you brought to my attention…Deut. 32:20 “And He said, “I will HIDE my face from them, I will see what their end shall be; for they are a very forward generation, children in whom is NO FAITH.  They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God; they have provoked me to anger with their vanities; and I will move them to jealousy with those which are not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.” 

All that You have shared to me reveals from Your Word, that this is You, and that this is what You are doing; yet not as they think.  This generation is truly a very forward generation; cocky, self confident in their efforts to handle life; those who do not have the true definition of FAITH, which is brought out also in Your Word, “whatever is not of faith (really hearing from God; hearing His in put on any matter or circumstance) is sin (acting independent from consulting God on the matter and trusting in their human efforts cut off from Him).   If this provokes me to anger, I know it also provokes You to anger; that after all that you have accomplished through Your Son to give back to us “The rights of an unfallen Adam” thus once again having, through Christ in us, the ability to subdue the earth and stop the moaning and groaning of a world that waits for such a manifestation of such “Beings”…I wonder if it will get any better, or will we see “the heat” turned up “IN HOPE” that maybe, just maybe, You might find one, or two or three individuals that see and know what is really going on in this world and get this message out, even at the cost of being misunderstood, having as You said, provoking them to jealousy saying, “Who do you think you are?  What makes you think what you are saying is an answer to the world’s crises?”  I know I will get this and expect it, knowing Your Son got the same.”

The Father’s reply, “Well said, you have listened.  There are others; you are not alone.  Tell them of the things I taught you through the experiences of Job; his fatal mistake which cost him the protective hedge I surrounded him with.  When they ask, you then can share it, one on one.  Share the work I shared with you, “Rights of the Unfallen Adam.”  I had it deleted in the past; it wasn’t time; now is that time.  I will have it open to you once again, that editing you had done and lost in your computer will be retrieved; expect it.  The child of Imagination is being awakened in those you know.  Those who can imagine that I have given to you that once lost through the first Adam, now regained through the Second, Jesus Christ, your Lord.”

At the time of writing this section of my Foreword to this book, I had no idea of what Transhumanism was planning and how advanced they were in mimicking what I know God has done for us.  Long before human efforts and their sciences sought to address the “real Condition” of this planet and mankind, God had addressed the problem and solved it “before the foundations of this world” and it efforts acting independent from God.  Today, as throughout history, God’s offer has been rejected and through some form of secular humanism, mankind has sought to do things “their way;” opposite to what you will find in this book is “God’s way.”
