If you are a student of the Word you always will be! Jimmy Carter is 95 years old yet still teaching the Bible! Why? Because he understands the Word of God is eternal! He the Christ the Word is the same yesterday, today and forever! The technology I studied 50 years ago in school is in the museum! So are the books! What you are studying today in school will be in the museum 50 years from now! The Bible never changes across the ages! What was true six thousand years ago is true today! I want to learn as much as possible before I meet God face to face! Will I know everything about God? Never! I know enough that he loves you and me! The more you understand God the humbler you become! My desire is to share with you what God has revealed to me through his Word! To give you the tools to help you long after I leave this earth! You will meet resistance from Satan as you take the Gospel unto the whole world! Both internal and external! But God will be in you to overcome the world with the Truth! The old saying is if you want to learn something teach it! I am not trying to sell any books about the Bible but the Bible! There are wonderful books about Theology spanning over hundreds and thousands of years! There is more material than you will ever live long enough to read! What is most important to you is not what I am telling you but what God is telling you through his Word! Not second hand information but what God is telling you! This is why a continuing Bible Study is important to you! A daily study! The Bible is your best offense and your best defense against the lies and deceptions of Satan! For your study I am suggesting to you to have a Hebrew-Greek Study Bible with the key Hebrew and Greek translated words to English underlined with the Strong’s Numbers! Why is this important? Because translators use one English word that best describes the Hebrew or Greek root word! You can trust your Bible but what I am saying is if you go back to the original language and are not limited to one word greater understanding prevails! I will give you two sources that will help you because they have helped me over the years. Try to get the “The Hebrew-Greek Key Study Bible by Spiros Zodhiates.” I would suggest to you the King James Version! I purchased mine on E-Bay for eleven dollars with free shipping. It was used but not one mark in the Bible? Sat on a shelf somewhere for 35 years! The other resource is the: “The Exhaustive Concordance of the Bible.” This book shows every word of the text of the common English version of the Canonical Books in regular order together with dictionaries of the Hebrew and Greek words of the original, with references to the English words by James Strong. This book is a very large heavy book! These two resources will help you grow in understanding and wisdom of the scriptures! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com

Christian Persecution?
Being a foreign student and attending Duke University which is a hub for atheist did you not feel intimidated and marginalized there? Quite the contrary! I felt it was a land of opportunity with so many unbelievers! The problem was i did not know where to start? I felt like a lonely fly that had just discovered a nudist colony along the beach!
