Coming Soon - The I AM Sermons in the Gospel of John: The Name of God in Exodus 3

I sent one or more copies of - The I AM Sermons in the Gospel of John: The Name of God in Exodus 3 - using Prime, so the copies should arrive this Saturday or Sunday. I was promised yesterday for mine, but it came today.
Don't be shy about emailing me if you did not get yours by Monday, or if you need more copies. Email - greg.jackson.edlp@gmail.com
Cub Editor Phil Hale will get his copy of The I AM Sermons in John. He will probably use it to stabilize the kitchen table leg. The WELS, ELS, and LCMS Seminary libraries are getting theirs. I skipped the ELCA seminaries because I do not know which one will close next.
The Synoptic Parables are next, and my academic calendar has been trimmed by me. Three classes tended to morph into more, so I am now keeping the number at two online classes.
I will work on audio for the broadcasts tomorrow morning. We had a big improvement in sound, with two more steps to take - using the hymn files, not linking from the Net, and using the Broadway Mike alone for sound coming from the same approximate place. I will record that tomorrow morning, d.v.

Gerberding was well known and appreciated in the Lutheran Church.

“…A good selection of Scripture passages well suited for reading at family worship…chosen to furnish a reading for every day and to complete the bible in a year.

Level of Difficulty: Primer: No subject matter knowledge needed.

Rev. Jesse Hurlbut writes,

“It has seemed to me that there is need of a good selection of Scripture passages, of nearly uniform length, fitted for reading at family worship, so chosen as to furnish a reading for every day in the year and to complete the Bible in a year.”

“But though all parts of the Bible are valuable, and even its driest genealogical tables have their uses to the student of history, yet all portions are not equally profitable for devotional purposes, nor adapted to reading in the family.”

“In the selection of passages the endeavor has been to follow the general current of history in the Bible, choosing mainly such passages as have some plain spiritual purpose; interspersing psalms with historical portions, and placing the selections from the prophets and the epistles nearly where they belong in the historical order.”

“It is the prayer of the compiler that this little work may help to a better understanding, a deeper interest, and a richer enjoyment in the Word of Life. – Jesse Hurlbut, New York, September 9, 1890.

The I AM Sermons Book Is Off to the Pre-Printers

Sending a book off is a combination of pain and exhilaration. I am sure I will find something wrong the moment I open up the first copy - and that is inevitable. On the other hand, I am excited to see it in print because I believe the actual Greek of these sermons, from Jesus Himself, conveys more than I am. The two words in Greek match the Voice from the Burning Bush.

That also fits into the historic identification of the Burning Bush as a representation of the Incarnate Son of God - Two Natures in One. The bush burns but remains whole.

A wonderful book is one of my all-time favorites - The Two Natures in Christ by Chemnitz.

Historical Critical Method Began the Trainwreck of the Modern Denominations

WELS' Jungkuntz only started one gay seminary - Metropolitan Community Church as part of Seminex. The results are in - it spread to all of ELCA's seminaries, which are non-binary now.

Thanks to the Historical Critical Method of mutilating the Bible, and the leadership of Jungkuntz and Eaton, the seminaries are emptying faster than Lake Meade. But they still line up together for Thrivent monies and treats: ELCA, LCMS, WELS, ELS, etc.

“Why did I leave the ministry when I left the Congregational church? Because, in the first place, my New Theology and Higher Criticism had destroyed my faith in the perfect, divine authority of the Bible; and in the second place, they had destroyed my faith in the perfect deity of Christ. When I had lost these two things I had lost everything… I could preach all the practical side of Christianity, but not the central fundamental truths of Christianity, Christ and his salvation through the cross.

New - The I AM Sermons in the Gospel of John: The Name of God in Exodus 3

I sent the book out for editing. Janie Sullivan will put the finishing touches on it, about 60 pages long. I have enjoyed the last stages of writing, which include going over every word, the big themes and the little details.
Once the book is live on Amazon, I will begin sending two copies, sometimes more, to the usual suspects. I am also distributing KJV books and Bibles for free, thanks to the generous support of many people.
The parables will be next, but only after some catching up on various computer necessities.
Addressing topics from the Bible is a great blessing. I have the time and the help from many people to get these books out. I am especially thankful to God for Norma A. Boeckler's artistic gifts and generous use of her time.

Technical theological terms have been introduced only where it has been deemed necessary to make their meaning clear… Whatever aspect of a Biblical doctrine promised to be most helpful to the pupil has been adopted… doctrinal … ...
