FINDING TRUTH IN A TIME OF DECEPTION

FROM THE EDITOR

Ron Matsen,Under Rower, K-House & KI

The Bible tells us that the end times will be a time of deception. Paul warned Timothy, “Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;” There is no doubt in the minds of

many that we are living in that time which was predicted by Paul.

In John’s Gospel chapter 8 verse 32, Jesus is quoted as saying, “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” The American CIA has etched this verse into the wall of the original building's main lobby. Strange that a governmental agency devoted to secret intelligence and misinformation would choose such a motto.

In the age of deception, how can we know what is true? If you back up one verse in John chapter 8 to verse 31 you get the context of this promise of Jesus. “Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, if ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”

The key to finding TRUTH is always based on/in/through the Bible. This month’s “Personal Update” emphasizes the importance utilizing the Bible as the supreme authority in determining what is true.

May God bless you as you continue to study His Word,

SEARCHING FOR TRUTH

I believe that the highest degree of certainty should always be ascribed to the inspired and inerrant text of Scripture. I also believe that each and every Christian is equipped with the potential to understand the message of Scripture for himself or herself, and that we are

not dependent on a consensus of scholars or theologians for a clear understanding of the Bible. Various sources like these, however, can at times help illuminate the truth that already resides in the Scriptures.

The Bible itself is the ultimate word, best word, and final word on issues of biblical geography and history. That, of course, is easy to say;

Robert Cornuke, Founder and President, B A S E I n s t i t u t eBob Cornuke - a former police investigator and S.W.A.T. team member - is a biblical investigator, international explorer, lecturer and author. He has participated in over fifty expeditions around the world searching for lost locations described in the Bible such as, The Real Mt. Sinai, Noah’s Ark, The Ark of the Covenant and Paul’s Shipwreck to name a few. Bob has appeared on many T.V. Programs such as National Geographic Channel, CBS, Good Morning America, CNN, Fox, History Channel and Ripley’s Believe It or Not. Bob is currently president of the Bible Archaeology Search and Exploration (BASE) Institute located in Colorado Springs, CO. He also serves as special advisor for the National Council on Bible Curriculum in Public Schools. Bob has earned a Ph.D. in Bible and theology from Louisiana Baptist University, but h i s ch i ld ren be l i eve that his most notable accomplishment to date is having his findings featured as a question on a trivial pursuit card.

BIObut what does it mean? For me, it means that if a thousand archaeologists say that the biblical site of “X” must be in a particular spot, but the Bible clearly indicates that “X” cannot be there, then the Bible must be right, and a thousand archaeologists must be wrong (Romans 3:4). This is not a popular way to approach archaeology. It is, however, my approach. Over the years I have found that the Bible provides many more clues to biblical locations than for which some archaeologists give it credit. In fact, I theorize that there may be one – and only one – way that all the geographic references in the Bible fit together in a single biblical geography that does not contradict any passage of Scriptures on any point.

The ProblemUnfortunately, during the early years of biblical

archaeology the unverified assignment of biblical names onto archaeological digs ran rampant. Out of enthusiasm, idealism, or financial pressure, some archaeologists felt compelled to justify their efforts and expenses by assigning biblical significance to every discovery. Though some of those sites are now being questioned and re-evaluated, many of those

indiscriminately assigned names persist today, regardless of their merits. They have been picked up and republished time after time in popular and scholarly publications, and thus have become modern traditions that are as strong or stronger than religious traditions many hundreds of years old!

This problem is compounded by many archaeologists’ assumption that scholarly archaeology itself is the final judge of the Bible, rather than vice-versa. For example, many archaeologists have adopted a Darwinian (evolutionist) model of ancient history, ancient language, ancient culture, ancient spirituality, and ancient technology, which in turn has tainted their view of the Bible’s accuracy in describing ancient places and events. They assume that the ancient Hebrews were less aware – not more aware – of spiritual truth than we are, though Romans 1 teaches quite the opposite. They assume that a scholarly consensus about the meaning of a word or passage in the Bible – not the way the Bible itself may explain the word or passage – carries the greatest weight. And they assume that the scholarly community, not the individual believer, is the best judge of issues concerning places and events in the Bible.

I believe that God’s Word is accessible and understandable to every believer who is willing to put in the time and effort to study it responsibly. I believe that its specific terminology and precise descriptions in the original languages are completely accurate and wholly without error. And while I believe that some biblical archaeology and some biblical scholarship is helpful in bringing additional light to the Bible, the Bible brings the ultimate light to everything outside of it and stands in judgment of all archaeology and scholarship – as well as of all archaeologists, scholars, and biblical exegetes. Biblically speaking, every believer is encouraged to examine the evidence – both inside and outside the Scriptures – that confirm the events, people, and truths of the Bible. Frequently in the Bible we find examples of individuals who discovered for themselves what the Scriptures say, with tremendous results.

I encourage all believers to acquire the skills that will help them study the Scriptures diligently – not just in matters of biblical geography, but in all things – and to remain sensitive to that consistent, non-contradictory “ring of truth” that will ultimately resonate from careful attention to His Word.

The PracticeI use a methodology that seeks to apply the best practices of many

disciplines, while giving absolute priority to the Bible itself. While I do not entirely discount the opinions of scholars, we do not place undue emphasis on them. I recognize the strength of a “Possibilities + Problems” methodology.

This method of investigation – especially in relation to biblical truth – begins by asking “What are the possibilities?” (e.g. possible scenarios, possible sites, possible chronologies, etc.) offered by the text of the Bible. It then proceeds to “interrogate” each possibility by asking, “What are the problems each one presents?” using a process of elimination to arrive at the option with the greatest weight of evidence and the fewest problems. Again, the highest priority and the greatest weight is given to any problems the Bible may bring to the premise.

I encourage all believers to acquire the skills that will help them study the

Scriptures diligently

The Western Wall, Wailing Wall or Kotel, is traditionally known as being part of the retaining perimeter wall of Herod's Temple. However, new discoveries are bringing this into question.

Honestly and candidly exploring the problems – without a predetermined conclusion – will ultimately weaken some possibilities while strengthening others. As the process continues, various possibilities are eliminated until a few, or even one, viable possibility remains. Throughout the process, there is always the prospect of uncovering new evidence, or revisiting existing evidence, or of rethinking traditions and conventions, all based on a process of objective discovery. That is why the attentive reader will notice that much of our literature and presentations are punctuated by qualifying words like “possible,” “potential,” “most likely,” and “conjecture.” Historical investigation is a process; and it is a process that should seek to be as objective as possible along the way.

Ideally, this is the systematic process employed by a police investigator, an investigative journalist, a biblical exegete, and – under ideal circumstances – a scholar. Unfortunately, all of these disciplines are practiced by human beings, and human beings are always capable of bringing their own agendas to the process. That is a pitfall I have earnestly sought to avoid by continually consulting unbiased practitioners in the various disciplines listed above. Our goal is to practice a methodology of informed deduction based on objective analysis of the best evidence from all sources.

Of course, hostile opponents to any view can accuse those who hold another view of not being objective, of not examining the right evidence, of not practicing what they preach. However, I believe that does nothing to strengthen or support the process of objectivity. I view our examination of possibilities and problems as an ongoing process in which we reserve the right to adjust, modify, refine, and clarify our material as more and better information comes to light.

The Cornuke Code of Conduct• I recognize the weakness of a “Premise + Proof” methodology.• I recognize the strength of a “Possibilities + Problems” methodology.• I recognize that the Bible is fully inspired (superintended by God)

in its autographs (original writings), without error in all its details and in every subject to which it addresses itself.

• I recognize that scholarship does not have the final say on the Bible; rather, the Bible has the final say on scholarship.

• I recognize that because scholarship can “prove” anything, it ultimately can “prove” nothing beyond doubt.

• I recognize that history by its very nature cannot be “proved”; it can only be argued on the weight of evidence and testimony.

• I recognize that older sources are superior to newer sources, that ancient testimony is superior to modern testimony, and that original evidence is superior to later opinions about that evidence.

• I recognize that all possible historical scenarios are just that – possible scenarios – and cannot be dogmatically and irrefutably argued.

• I recognize that the biblical model of human potential, intellect, civilization, and culture presents humanity on its way down (as a consequence of sin), not on its way up (as an outcome of evolution).

The so-called "Canaanite Gate" at Tel Dan preserves the earliest intact archway in the world at almost 4000 years old!

• I recognize that history cannot be re-created; and that the more remarkable the event, the less possible it is that it can be re-created.

• I recognize that religious, secular, and scholarly traditions are very strong, and thus elicit very strong reactions when they are challenged. We take these reactions to heart, but by policy do not engage in public arguing or quarrelling.

Therefore:

• I believe that the Bible provides many clues to its own geography that have yet to be carefully analyzed and reconciled to all other clues and geographic references in the Bible.

• I believe there must be one – and may be only one – way in which all the geographic clues, place names, and episodes of biblical history fit together without conflict or contradiction.

• I believe that some landmarks and archaeological sites to which biblical names have been assigned actually contradict biblical references to these and to related locations. In such instances, the Bible must take absolute priority over tradition and scholarship.

• I believe the Bible’s testimony to itself is the final judge of archaeology and archaeological conclusions – not vice-versa.

• I believe that all sincere Christians who are willing to diligently pursue the Word of God possess the potential for discovering its reliable, accurate, and inerrant truth for themselves.

• I believe that every believer can acquire certain skills in Bible study that will allow them to seek and judge for themselves the validity of geographical and historical issues in the Bible.

BIO

Actor Peter Falk played homicide detective Lieutenant Columbo in each of the American television shows bearing his fictional surname. Throughout nearly six dozen episodes released during four

decades beginning in the late 1960’s, Columbo refused to ignore the evidence that did not fit with the “obvious” conclusion unanimously embraced by others at the crime scene. Columbo regularly faced scorn and ridicule which added both headwinds and determination to his effort to ferret out the truth. The littlest detail that did not fit the conventional thinking drove Columbo to dig further to find the truth. Confirmation bias describes the natural tendency to research, recall and rely on the evidence which supports our previously held beliefs and conclusions. Contrary or ambiguous evidence is regularly dismissed or sometimes casually incorporated into our conclusion for which it does not fit! Dr. Missler frequently states, “The only certain barrier to truth is the presumption you already have it.” The Bereans were regarded as nobler than the Thessalonians because they both received the words of Paul and tested them against the Scripture to determine their truth. (see Acts 17:11) Columbo displayed a bit of the Berean by resisting confirmation bias and testing everything he heard until reaching the correct conclusion. And he could always do this in an hour or so!

The only certain

barrier to truth is the

presumption you already

have it.

There is a question posed throughout our public discourse about our children and the evidence presented here points to an answer that is so disturbing that the reader may torture the evidence with a form of confirmation bias. Simply put, “Are our children the children of their parents or the children of their politicians?” From this comes the related

issue about who decides what is best for our children – the parents or the collective? Consider the following evidence before answering these questions.

A Kitchener Ontario Canada father was arrested at his child’s school and later strip-searched at the police station because his 4-year old daughter drew a picture of a gun in class.1 A Seattle parent who exercised her legal right as well as her parental priority in opting out of standardized tests in Seattle wrote the following account, “During the last period of the day, my daughter was summoned to the vice principal’s office.

the office. The vice principal informed my daughter that two of her teachers had emailed her earlier in the day to inquire why she was not on the approved list for the carnival because she had outstanding effort grades (all A’s in effort as well as academics). The vice principal then informed my daughter that she may be able to write a letter of appeal, but she would let her know if that was possible by the end of the period. She explained that she had to follow the rules which were that only students excused from the (test) for medical reasons would be allowed to attend the carnival. Students who opted out would not be allowed to go because they did not follow the rules.”2 Oregon lawmakers approved an education bill that facilitates parents opting out of state standardized testing by including a requirement to publicize this right and by addressing schools’ ratings affected by high percentages of opting out.3 This resulted in a letter from Department of Education warning that such a bill would jeopardize 140 million dollars4 of federal funding. The article claims the “Obama administration officials say testing all students promotes civil rights.” In summary, Common Core standardized tests promote civil rights and parents who regard as best for their child opting out of these tests are complicit in eroding civil rights! Connect that with the current narrative on civil rights which frequent the evening news hours of the main stream media and we realize the power of this argument. Testing is not the only item where State priorities trump parental privileges. A bill in California (similar to current laws in Mississippi and West Virginia) seeks to eliminate the state’s “personal belief ” exemption that allows parents to opt out of having their children vaccinated against viruses such as the measles. The only exception allowed by this bill concern medically fragile children for which the vaccination is dangerous.5

Proponents claim that unvaccinated students pose a threat to vaccinated ones. This argument is self-defeating. It is only valid if the vaccination is ineffective; why else would vaccinated students be threatened? But if it is ineffective, what sense is there in mandating everybody gets the vaccination?

a United States Marine who objected to the school assigning his teenage daughter (along with the rest of her class) to write a three-page essay about Islam. When he requested his daughter be excused from this class during this unit, the school issued a no-trespass order against him despite his claims that he made no verbal threats nor devised plans to disrupt the school day on campus.6 And the list of these sorts of reactions to responsible parents grows daily. Many reading this article are familiar with the horrible fifteen month ordeal experienced by Justina Pelletier and her family when her parents simply relied on a second medical opinion.7 The growing body of evidence supports a claim that “medical kidnapping” (what a disturbing phrase) is on the rise. “While we don’t yet have the statistics, it sure looks like cases of medical kidnapping are on the rise – cases where fit and loving parents are losing custody of their

children because a doctor or hospital wants to make the child’s medical decisions instead. In some cases, it appears the grabs may even be carried out, not for the health interests of the child, but for the research interests of the hospital.”8

In 1996, American politician Hillary Rodham Clinton released a book whose provocative title was based on the African proverb “It takes a village to raise a child.”9 This prompted another American politician Robert Dole during a speech to say, “With all due respect, I am here to tell you, it does not take a village to raise a child. It takes a family to raise a child.” And that captures the essence of this tug of war. Does a village raise a child or do parents raise a child?

judgment and their employers’ (read Federal and State) demands. The educational system is increasingly forcing space between parents and their children and finding ways to insert government and private interests in the resulting vacuum.

British academic Adam Swift opines, “I don’t think parents reading their children bedtime stories should constantly have in their minds the way that they are unfairly disadvantaging other people’s children, but I think they should have that thought occasionally.” At issue is not that some parents through lack of capacity or concern disadvantage their own children; rather that other parents by giving their own child love and attention are disadvantaging the other children! Swift continues, “Evidence shows that the difference between those who get bedtime stories and those who don’t … is bigger than the difference between those who get elite private schooling and those that don’t.”10

While things were crumbling around him with unpaid vendors and employees’ paychecks bouncing, he glibly stated, “At the end of the day, it’s all about the kids.” This overused phrase masks many more nefarious motives. The adage has never been truer than it is today and especially in education, “The only adults that truly have the backs of children are the parents that are on the backs of their children.” There is an ongoing attack on the family and one of Satan’s wiles (see Ephesians 6:10-20 and especially verse 11) is using the public discourse and the public schools to destroy it. Be a Columbo and don’t ignore the evidence that disrupts what you remember about your days in school.

“Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD: And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.”

Malachi 4:5-6 KJV

The city of Corinth was Hollywood, Las Vegas and New York all rolled into one. Corinth was intellectually alert, materially prosperous, but morally corrupt. Its citizens were devoted to the reckless development of the individual. The church at Corinth is the "carnal church" - spiritual babes, immature and undeveloped. Paul seeks to provide them with the necessary guidance to bring them (and us) to full maturity.

The beginning of a person’s reconciliation with God is their recognition of God. The argument for and against the existence of God has raged for ages. Yet proving the existence of God is an understanding that comes from an “aggregate of thoughts” knit together with “summary logic.”

• Can the existence of God be proven?

• What are the classic arguments for the existence of God?

• If an infinite God exists, how can He be understood by finite man?

Join Ron Matsen in the Executive Briefing Room of the River Lodge, New Zealand as he examines the subject of “Discovering God” and explores the ultimate “algorithm of complex theology.”

Calling all “Flat Earth Society” members! Don’t throw away your historical credentials! It now turns out that your perceptions may have been even more extensive than previously suspected! Not

only the Earth, but the entire universe may be “flat.”

As we had previously reported in our article on “The Holographic Universe,”1 it now appears that not only the whole universe may be a hologram, it may be in only two dimensions! It, too, may be “flat” mathematically.

In 1997, Juan Maldacena, a physicist, postulated that the current understanding of gravity and the current understanding of quantum theory, have correspondence with each other in spaces with one fewer dimensions (2D).2

1 Our original article, August 1998, “Is Our Reality Only Virtual”; others in Feb 2002, March 2009, and our Briefing Pack, The Holographic Universe, in November 2012.

2 More than ten thousand scientific papers about Maldacena’s “AdS-CFT-correspondence” have been published to date.

it now appears that not only the whole universe may be a

hologram... It, too, may be “flat”

mathematically.

He pointed out that the universe itself could be a hologram much like those on your credit cards. Looking at a true hologram you can see all the depth of a three dimensional space. In fact you can look “around” a hole in the hologram and see what is behind it. These holograms are, in actuality, in a two dimensional surface.

With the postulation of the Quantum Theory and its apparent experimental confirmation, all the necessary parts for a holographic universe were available. Quantum (think individual “pixels”) are the smallest building block of matter.

Think of them like your digital television. Whether your TV has 720p, 1080p, or the newer 4k resolution, the picture is made of individual pixels. If you get close enough you can see (or begin to see) these tiny dots of color. When you stand back you see all the shading to convince your brain that you are looking at a near 3D picture. The higher the resolution, the better the “3D” effect.

A quantum particle is extremely small at the Planck limit. Each quantum contains enough information, though, to know what every other quantum is doing no matter the distance; (yes, experimentation has apparently confirmed this).3 What we know about the attributes of quanta easily fits into what is theoretically necessary to

produce an extremely high-resolution, holographic projection of the entire universe.

This is what physicists are chasing to confirm right now. If proven, it has vast implications. One physicist commented that if found correct, the next natural conclusion is that someone had to have written the code for the software.4

3 1982: Alain Aspect, Jean Dalibard, and Gérard Roger at the Institute of Theoretical and Applied Optics, Paris, conducted a landmark experiment: Twin photons from heating cesium atoms with lasers, each traveled in opposite directions through 6.5 meters of pipe to special polarization analyzers. The filters switched in 10 nanoseconds, 30 nanoseconds less than the 13 meters of travel between them. Photons did demonstrate non-locality.

4 It is provocative to discover that our DNA is a three-out-of-four error-correcting code. How many engineers in a thousand would know how to design one?

Currently, there are two avenues of research that are directly trying to test this theory. The first is taking place at the US Department of Energy’s Fermilab in Batavia, IL.5 They have developed a one-of-a-kind instrument that can measure motions a billion times smaller than an atom. They have developed the most sensitive sensors in history as a part of this project. With this instrument (they have named it the “Holometer”), they are collecting data that could confirm that this reality is, in fact, a hologram.

They need a lot of data, but possibly by the end of the year they may be able to offer a conclusion.

Just recently, in Vienna, Austria, a group of mathematicians at TU Wien, exploring the mathematics of the “holographic principle” have announced a breakthrough.6 The “holographic principle” asserts that a mathematical description of the universe requires only a 2D space. What we see as 3D may just be an image of 2D processes on a gigantic scale.7

6 Prof. Daniel Grumiller, Institute for Theoretical Physics, TU Wien, Wiedner Hauptstraße 8-10, 1040 Vienna, 7 There has always been something a little “quirky” with this principle in that the math only works in “exotic

spaces” (fictitious), (read that anti-de-sitter spaces: spaces with a negative curve). Our universe is actually flat and in astronomical distances shows a positive curvature.

The scientists, including Arjun Bagchi, Rudranil Basu, Max Riegler and Daniel Grumiller, have managed to show that the same mathematical conclusions for the “holographic principle” in a negatively curved space work for a flat space, too; thus confirming that no laws are violated and no “exotic spaces” are required. This is a huge conceptual leap forward. It doesn’t prove we live in a holographic environment, but it does confirm it is possible.

This work in conjunction with the work being done at Fermilab could confirm the growing suspicions that there is something greater than what we can see. Even secular science is being ostensibly pushed toward an unavoidable truth as it delves further into the engines of creation.

The Biblical ViewThe Bible has always said that this present “reality” is only transient.

It had a beginning and it will have an end.8

Are we living in an elaborate holographic “simulation”? Is this but “a shadow” of a higher reality? That’s what the scientists now tell us.9

Who supplies the unspeakable amounts of energy that are needed every moment to insure a smooth operation?10

Do your own actions within this spacetime determine your destiny when this spacetime is dissolved? This inescapable conclusion is quickly coming upon each of us. Are you sure of your own preparations for what’s ahead?

How far behind can Jesus possibly be? Each tick of the clock represents an additional opportunity to be ever more ready…

There seems to be evidence to suggest that our world and everything in it are only ghostly images: projections from a level of reality so beyond our own that the real reality is literally beyond both space and time. The main architect of this astonishing idea is one of the world’s most eminent thinkers - physicist David Bohm, a protégé of Einstein’s. In this executive summary, Chuck gives a current perspective on some of the areas that define our reality.

• Could the Cosmos be a Super-Hologram?• What is one of the fundamental errors commonly made

in the field of Astronomy?• What is the Nature of Reality?• What are the implications of this understanding?

Hi Everyone,In the United States, the end of May and beginning of June is

graduation season. Quite honestly, graduations are not a function I skip with joy to attend…but, this week, I had the opportunity of attending a ceremony that so inspired me that I wanted to share an “Agape lesson” that God keeps putting on my heart.

New Vision High School is an alternative high school for at risk youth. The 23 young adults who walked across the stage to receive their high school diploma had all come through great adversity and beat the odds to graduate. As each student was announced by the principal, they came to the stage, stepped up to the podium, spoke into the mike and gave thanks to all the people who helped them complete their high school education. There were many testimonies of them thanking their moms, dads, step parents, aunts and grandparents for their love and support. But amongst the names that these students mentioned there was always the name of “Becky”. And when they said her name, they looked out into the audience with tears in their eyes and said, “Thank you.” Each of them had a different story to share of how she encouraged them on.

I had the honor of meeting Becky afterwards. She came over to the young adult that I was with and gave her a big hug and told her how proud she was of her. I’m not sure if Becky was a Christian, but I do know that she loved and respected those graduating students and they knew she was genuine.

The “Agape lesson” God keeps putting on my heart is: encourage and build up by caring and investing in peoples lives. This is so important for the times we are living in and coming into. The Apostle Paul sums up “how we are to do it” in chapter 13 of 1 Corinthians.

This summer make it a point to encourage someone. You’ll get blessed!

In His Love and mine,

BIO

Natural thoughts, emotions and desires, the dictionary calls them “the movers of our soul” because what we think and feel is usually what we choose to follow.

Both Christians and non-Christians alike struggle with these elements of life. Our thoughts stir up our emotions; our emotions influence our desires (or our choices); and, our choices produce fruit in our lives. In other words, everything we say and do is built upon these driving components of our makeup. Our days are even defined by how we feel. We have “good days” and we have “bad days.” We constantly ask one another, “How do you feel?” “How are you?” Most of the time it’s not our physical health that we are inquiring about, it’s our mental and emotional status.

What we think and how we feel determines every aspect of our life, as seen in some of the following comments from letters I’ve received over the years:

“How do I get beyond my emotions when I am so hurt that I can feel it in the deepest part of my stomach? I just can’t seem to get free from these emotions and I feel like I’m tottering on the edge.”

“I really want a relationship with Jesus again, like it used to be. I pray daily for strength and that I would be able to walk in Love, but I can’t seem to break free from these horrible feelings that explode when I am confronted with another situation. What do I do? Please help me.”

“What do I do now? How do I get rid of my bitterness and resentment? Where do I find the genuine love that I need?”

“I simply don’t love him anymore. I used to, but I don’t any longer! What am I supposed to do, fake it?”

These are very good questions! And they’re questions we all ask at one time or another. The bottom line is, how do we change what we really think and feel in order to do what God wants, and not be phony?

“I Feel How I Feel” If we are not able to control and tame these “movers of our soul,”

they can easily overwhelm and drown us. Someone once dramatically expressed it this way, “I just can’t seem to change how I feel. I am a Christian, but I feel how I feel regardless of how much you prove to me that I shouldn’t feel this way!”

Should our thoughts and emotions carry this much weight? Should they be the basis of our choosing, our acting and our existence, especially as Christians? How do we control them? How do we tame them? And, most importantly, how do we get beyond them?

Again, the bottom line is, how are we able to go against the tide of our thinking and feeling, choose God’s will and still be genuine?

This is the subject at hand, and what we want to explore over the next few months. How do we as Christians overcome the “justified” hurt feelings, anger, bitterness, resentment, fear, unforgiveness, insecurity, guilt and memories (the movers and shakers of our soul) that consume us daily? Is it possible to make choices to follow God when we really don’t feel like it, don’t want to and don’t think it will work? Will God honor something we choose simply by faith, but that we really don’t feel? The following story is a remarkable real-life example. Read it, and then you decide.

“A Damascus Road Experience” “It was the last day of our trip home to Florida to visit our family.

I was at my husband’s parents’ house, packing alone. All the kids were at the beach and Ken, my husband, was out fishing with his two brothers-in-law. The Lord had me stay home alone and soon I would find out why. As I was packing, the Holy Spirit led me to Ken’s suitcase and had

me lift up the bottom of the inside of it to find an address book with over two pages of women’s names, phone numbers and descriptions.

“At first, I froze, as tears of unbelief welled up deep inside of me. I wanted to run (I felt like I had finally found my ticket out of a very unhappy marriage), but the still, small voice of the Spirit of God within constrained me. ‘Remember, I’m in control,’ He said. ‘How you handle this and the choices you make are critical. Choose to walk by faith, not your feelings, and your life will change.’

“I called a friend and placed myself under her accountability and received some wise counsel as to how to proceed. My husband arrived home shortly after that and with the book in hand, I asked him, ‘What’s going on?’ ‘Are you in touch with these women now?’ All he said was, ‘yes.’ He just looked at me and said, ‘I am going to hell. You know Jesus, will you please pray for me’?

“Those were perhaps the most honest words I have ever heard him say. So, I did pray and asked God, ‘May Your will and not mine be done. I give this to You and it is now in Your hands.’ (My own feelings inside were screaming, ‘run, get out, this is your chance!’ but I chose, by faith, to really mean what I had said in my prayer.)

“Immediately, Ken began to confess everything. He took the book from my hands, ran into the adjoining bathroom and lit it on fire. When he came back he said, ‘It’s time to expose my sin.’

“A dear pastor that we knew in that city came over later that night and spent three hours with Ken out in the street. After a couple of hours, the pastor asked me to come out and told me, ‘Ken has just had a Damascus Road experience.’ I wouldn’t have believed him, except that I had prayed those exact same words for my husband many times. And in a prayer meeting just a month earlier, someone gave me a word for my husband, again using the Damascus Road analogy.

“Then the pastor said to me, ‘God has heard your prayer. Ken was saved tonight and baptized out in that street.’ Well, you can imagine the elation and also the confusion that I was feeling!

“The next few weeks involved a lot of pain, but an unfolding of the Glory of God like I have never seen before. Ken confessed to all the women he was close to. He confessed ‘he was a false convert living a life headed for hell’ to our four teenage children, to my mom, sisters and two pastor friends. He even named all his sins, sparing the grossness of the details to protect their imaginations.

“Telling the children was the hardest of all. They each began to cry. They thought their dad was already a wonderful Christian. But God’s glory shined, even through this horrific time, and He began to heal all of our hearts.

“Eventually, Ken asked me to marry him again and our lives have never been the same. He now calls me from his car and holds the phone up to the marriage audios for me to listen to. For the first time in 19 years, we are experiencing the oneness in the Spirit that God so desires. We are continually in the Word and praying together. We have had more conversations in the past year than we’ve had in all our 19 years put together. Our children are spiritually alive as never before.

Choices: The Key to Our Christian Walk What makes the above story so miraculous? It’s miraculous because

in spite of how Anna felt, in spite of what she thought and in spite of what she wanted, she chose to trust God and, by faith, do His will. God then supernaturally changed her feelings to align with her choices and restored her marriage. This story is miraculous because Anna made non-feeling choices that allowed God to intervene and, thus, change the course of her life.

The choice to obey God’s will, however, must always come first.

What would have happened had Anna chosen not to follow God, but go by her own justified feelings? She had Scriptural reasons! She would have immediately split with Ken and her story would have ended up like hundreds of others that we see and hear about all the time.

Our choices are critical, because faith is simply a series of choices-choices to go against the tide of emotion and do what God wants. If we can learn to make these kinds of choices, like Anna, they can change the course of our lives.

Denying Ourselves Naturally, even as Christians, we are still full of “self,” our own natural

thoughts, emotions and desires-especially in trials. Now, some of our hurts, unforgiveness, bitterness, and resentment are fully “justified” by the world’s standards. But by God’s standards, because we hold on to these things, mull them over in our minds and usually act upon them, these negative thoughts and emotions can end up quenching God’s Spirit in us.

If we can learn to give our real feelings and thoughts over to God, however, like Anna did in the above example, and choose by faith alone to follow God’s will, then He will align our feelings with the choices we have made and make us genuine.

Matthew 16:24 tells us that, “If any man will come after Me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow Me.”

To deny in the above Scripture does not mean to push down and bury our real feelings, nor does it mean to negate their existence. As Christians, many of us have been doing this, thinking we are not supposed to feel the way we do. But one of the beauties of the freedom that Christ has given us is that we can be honest with Him, acknowledge these things, confess and repent of them, give them over to Him, and then be free from them altogether. Thus, “to deny” simply means to bar ourselves or to prevent ourselves from following what we naturally think and feel. We’re all human and we’re all going to have these kinds of negative thoughts and feelings until we see Jesus.

Thus, it’s important we look at these “movers of our soul,” and call them for what they are so we will know exactly what we are dealing with. Next, we must learn how to make faith choices to “bar ourselves” from following what these negative elements of our lives are telling us, and choose, instead, to give them to the Lord. Then, we will be free to follow what He desires, like Anna in the above example. God, in His timing and in His way, will then change our thinking and feeling to match what we have chosen, making us genuine.

Thus, the question the Lord continually asks us is: “Are you willing?” Are you willing to choose by faith to follow Me? Because being willing is all that’s necessary. God, then, will give us the strength we need to go against the tide and carry out His will, just as He did in Anna’s life.

Choosing by faith explains a little more clearly how we can walk out Ephesians 4:29-32…

Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers. And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God...Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamor, and evil speaking, be put away from you with all malice; And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God, for Christ’s sake, hath forgiven you.

Over the last 20+ years, Koinonia House has produced its flagship broadcast, 66/40, which has aired on radio stations all over the world. 66/40 has long been an outlet for Bible study, and to broadcast our latest content. As of the 18th of May, 2015, the 66/40 Radio has been simplified and explained in a simple but exciting way. A brand new, 27 min program with over 25 minutes of pure Bible study will be the format going forward. That’s right, ONLY Bible study.

So what happened to the PodCast?66/40, as a podcast, has also been changed. We will no longer be

offering 66/40 as a Podcast with an historical archive. Instead, we have created a listen again service online. This new service does not require each episode to be downloaded prior to playing. We will run a one week, rolling backlog of episodes. If you miss an episode or two, you can catch-up online at 6640.khouse.org.

Can I still get a weekly podcast?Yes! Here at Koinonia House, we wanted to give our supporters

a good possibility that you’ve been misinformed. In fact, maybe you’ve been wrong from the start about the most amazing man who ever walked the surface of the earth.

Many people who knew Jesus understood Him well enough to admire Him, to respect Him, and to love Him. Others were terrified of Him. Some of His own relatives said He was out of His mind. But the politically and religiously intolerant leaders of first-century Israel hated Him. So they murdered Him. But that wasn’t the end of the story. Not by a long shot.

Today, more than twenty centuries later, respected Bible scholars Dr. Chuck Missler and Dr. William Welty bring Jesus of Nazareth to you in the most unconventional way possible… by bringing Jesus of Nazareth to talk in His very own words about Himself, His purpose, His nature, and His mission.

Jesus of Nazareth Speaks in His Own Words about Himself, His Purpose, His Nature,

and His Mission

STUDY TOGETHER

SPEAKING

Each residential student will:

• Participate in a guided classroom environment that will be comprised of lectures, open discussions, and testing,

• Live communally with other students in the beautifully isolated grounds of The River Lodge in Reporoa, Bay of Plenty on the banks of the Waikato River, and

• Grow individually in their knowledge of the Bible so they can gain the maximum benefit of this intensive preparation experience.

Accelerated and Long Term courses available.
