The Handbook of the Remnant Church
It’s all based on truth and •I am• is Truth
This book is for you if you are a believer with no spiritual help in an institutionalized church. You may be from a catholic apostolic church, a protestant church, an evangelical church, a pentecostal church, a non-denominational church, or any church background which presents the common spectator religion. From what I can tell we are all just calling ourselves believers, at this point. Denominations have become barriers within the Bride of the Messiah. Soon Our Groom will come and pull us out, so we can be together with Him forever.
As a person on planet Earth, your basic view of the world is based upon the physical senses, mental reasonings, and ideas. However, there are forces outside ourselves which can affect and change how we sense reality and how we think. Our minds have contacts with these forces though we cannot sense them with our fleshly senses at all. Our senses seem solid, but there are clearly things we cannot see, feel, touch, smell, or taste. Plus scripture tells us that the world system is nominally under the control of the enemy of Mankind: Satan.
Most people in the United States are doing the ostrich routine to avoid seeing reality. Secular Humanism, for example, has developed the religion which has become dominant in Western Civilization since the second half of the twentieth century. You can see the basic flaw in their evolution religion by reading the motto of the American Humanist Association: Good Without A God.
In Biblical Reality, we require a daily walk based on truth. Truth is a being, who has named himself •I am•. This immense being is also Knowledge, Wisdom, Righteousness, and Power. He is all-knowing, all-powerful, always present everywhere. He is pure, holy, and perfect love. He defined good in creation.
•I am• created everything, and everything is based on or derived from His knowledge, power, presence, and love. He defined all of this when He created our Universe. All things are created by Him and for Him—including these definitions.
Thankfully, He is wise enough to have led Mankind to produce the scriptures which were written by believers empowered by His Holy Spirit, who is the spiritual presence of •I am• on the earth within Mankind. These scriptures tell the story of the creation plus the world of the Gentiles and Israel from the point of view of •I am•.
If we know the Lord and ask the Holy Spirit to explain things while we read the scriptures, He will do that. The Holy Spirit can verify Genesis, for example, because He was there at the time, and lives eternally.
But how can we know all of that?
Because we can talk with Him. If you sincerely ask Him to talk to you, He will show you how to do that. All you need to do is do what He tells you to do. One essential part of this is that we are required to ask the Image of •I am•—who we know as His son, Yeshua in Hebrew, Jesus in Greek, Joshua in English. Yeshua is •I am•. If you do not know Him personally yet, read chapter 4.
Yeshua will show you how to develop communication with Him. We are all different. Some will only accept communication through the scriptures. Others include the scriptures, plus she or he is able to have faith for closer, more verbal communication.
It varies widely. You can live as close to Jesus as you allow. It’s part of how He designed you as an individual and under your control. He will respond well to your attempts to draw closer.
But we slid past a major truth
When the Great •I am• created the universe, it was designed for a specific purpose. It was built as the Training Place of Mankind to give you the opportunity to live in Heaven and develop a close relationship with •I am•. It has been running, as designed, since the beginning of time. We’ll talk about that more when we discuss why •I am• made us. •I am• is the foundation of Biblical Reality. He is our first essential statement.
