Hello;
I have been in the ministry now for close to 30 years. During that time I’ve pastored churches, conducted
seminars, spoke at revivals, assisted in the building of 5 churches in Michigan, Ohio, Florida, and
Alabama. I have watched as people were healed due to prayer, miracles were wrought in my presence,
and I have conducted several exorcisms.
At some point in the middle of it all, I began to realize that somehow I was called to specialize in theology
and teaching rather than pastoring churches. I don’t know why it took so long for me to realize what my life
would amount to … for, from childhood I was caught up in the paranormal. My dad used to tell me about
the various ghosts he had experienced and I remember thrilling as he told me. My grandfather related
encountering a demon before I was born. When my wife and children and I lived in Florida, we
experienced an impressive melange of events ranging from sighting UFOs, to entities who liked to travel
by means of electrical wires and would manifest to us by appearing out of electrical outlets. A ghost once
kicked our dog. It was while living in Florida that the Holy Spirit of Yahweh manifested to us and my wife
and I experienced the “so-called” baptism of the Holy Spirit. It was later, when we lived in Michigan, that a
man and his wife attempted to “lead” Darlene, (my wife), and I to the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. And I
remember telling them that I had already experienced that miracle and it didn’t seem right to experience it
for the first time again when it had already happened to me and to Darlene. (For some reason, people
who have experienced the Baptism have a hard time believing that people already have the Holy Spirit
when they try to lead us to it. They do not understand that everyone is an individual and that Yahweh
treats His servants as individuals and the relationship they have with the Holy Spirit is also on an
individual level).
When we lived in Chicago, Illinois, I met several witches, had very interesting exchanges with them, and
began to understand where wicca belonged in Yahweh’s plan. It was also in Chicago that I first met
several genuine vampires. Chicago is a particularly rich environment for the paranormal. As I moved
along, studying and researching, learning spiritual things, meeting new people, I found that the Bible, if it
is studied diligently, shows us where each kind of person, and each variety of belief, fits into Yahweh’s
unique, many faceted program. After all, it is in the Book of Mark that we read where, “All men (and
women) will be saved …” If that be true, and it is in the Bible so it must be true, that means Yahweh has a
particular way to use any and all beliefs and understandings … and those of us who react adversely need
to become less condemning in our approach to living and more exploratory in order to fully understand
what the future might hold for all of us.
(I must caution all our readers that my studies and resulting scholarship has taught me not to simply read
the Bible, believing every single thing we read as if it was beyond mistake or corruption. Remember, the
Bible has undergone very many translations at the hand of, in some instances, very selfish and self
serving translator – at the behest of priests and other leaders whose intent is to screw around with the
word of truth. You see, when you read the Bible, it should be with the intent of ferreting out the absolute
truths that were left intact. And those, the truths that were left intact, must often be found by hard, intent,
diligent work with the Bible in one hand and an exhaustive concordance in the other hand. We should
remember some of the remarks made by important, prominent Americans that many constantly say
denied the Bible and Yahshua. That’s not quite true, for Thomas Edison, one of the detractors everyone
writes about, wrote: The clergy converted the simple teachings of ‘Jesus’ into an engine for enslaving
mankind and adulterated by artificial constructions into a contrivance to filch wealth and power to
themselves … these clergy, in fact, constitute the real Anti-Christ.).
Knowing the above has led me to many adventures and revelations not always shared or believed by
others. While living in Michigan, during one very cold day in the winter, while driving the 26 miles from
working for the GM Corporation as a machinist to my home in Imlay City, I chanced to actually view, rather
close up, my first actual UFO. There was very little traffic on the highway due to the cold and icey
conditions. I was driving slowly because the old Ford we owned was a big car and it had a tendency to
slide on the ice that covered the road in patches. I was thinking about my life thus far and happened to
glance out my right side, passenger window. And there the UFO was. It was about a mile away, flying
serenely along, pacing me as I drove along. The UFO was cigar shaped, and from my vantage point,
looked to be about 300 feet long, round, with a wide black stripe about 50 feet back from the front end.
There was another wide black stripe about 50 feet from the tail of the machine. A line of portholes ran
from stripe to stripe. The front pair of portholes were dimly lighted. I recall, thinking about it, as a car or
truck appeared either in my rear view window or coming toward me on the highway, the UFO would quickly
cloak itself in a kind of mist until the traffic was past and far gone. I could only deduce that the UFO meant
for me only to see it and to feast my eyes on it.
The UFO paced me on the road and continued to fly across the town I lived in as I arrived home. I parked
my car, ran into my apartment, grabbed a small telescope that we kept handy and ran to our upstairs
window. Darlene was asking me what was up as I ran through the house, and all I could do was mumble
something about what I had seen. At any rate, the UFO was still out there, flying slowly along, allowing me
to get a good look at it through the telescope. I do not remember whether Darlene actually saw the UFO.
But, I know that I certainly did. (This happened about 1965, when all the newspapers were carrying stories
about a spate of UFO sightings in Michigan. I remember well the “swamp gas” debacle when J. Alan Hynek
was hired by the Air Force to debunk a lot of the UFO sightings.)
Another happening I remember was when Darlene and I were driving home one evening. It was dark, and
suddenly a flaming object flew low over our car and crashed into a hill about a mile away. We believe that
we actually witnessed the crash of a UFO because right on the trail of the flaming object were several
helicopters and fixed wing airplanes. It was only minutes before the military had the hillside cordoned off
and MPs were all over the place.
So, okay, I have spent some time regaling you with our adventures in the paranormal. What the heck am I
trying to say to you.
Just this: Yahweh promises a life full of adventure and discovery for anyone who follows Him. It may not be
a life that duplicates our adventures; you may not see UFOs, and stuff like that. But, your life will, if you
reach out and grab it, be a cut above, maybe several cuts above, the ordinary lives people live.
And, that’s only the tip of the iceberg. When you follow Yahweh’s plan, you will know things and do things
that are simply out of the ordinary, just as Yahshua promised. If you spend time reading the Bible,
studying it to prove it for yourself, your brain begins to enlarge and your sense of discovery multiplies. I’ve
never understood why some people want nothing to do with Yahweh … or the peculiar plan He has for His
servants.
For the people who decide to dedicate their lives to Yahweh Almighty, are making a decision to step up
several levels in living and existence. But, most who say they want to serve the Almighty do not want to
actually do the labor to grasp the opportunities given them. They change their lives very little. The whole
point is that following Yahweh is a conscious decision. Stepping up a level or two into the true field of
Quantum Theology is also a conscious decision that we all must actually choose to make. But, once we
make that decision, and truly begin to reach out for the blessings Yahweh has for us, whole new
spectrums of thought become available. We really begin to understand theology, the Bible, the life we are
to live, and we see more clearly into the future … a future that is cloaked, just like the UFO cloaked itself
… cloaked from others who cannot see as we see.
I have spent about 3 decades teaching theology and the traditional Bible in the various versions of our
newsletters. I have offered articles and teachings beyond the norm to many people, over 50,000 during
that time. Now, at this important time in history, we will begin a new dimension in our articles and
teachings. I cannot tell you at this time what we will offer. But, it will be different, and the offerings will be to
those of you who desire to walk with us on this very high level of existence.
Would you like to join us in our adventures?
To indicate your desire to step up to a higher level of being, all you have to do is write us. Yes, exercise
your hands and fingers and take a pen and write us. Send the letter by snail mail to the address on our
cover sheet. In that manner, and that way, I will have some idea how many of you are interested.
And, yes, as always, this newsletter takes money to operate. So, please examine your finances and help
us out by sending along operating capital. Not the means to achieve and power that Thomas Edison
spoke of, but the means of keeping this newsletter alive. We’ll be eternally grateful. And, we’ll recognize
your seriousness by your reply.
