I am going to start putting up some posts with excerpts from my book, The Bible Simplified (a working Title). I cannot promise a completion date, but I finished a good portion of the book this summer. Since the summer is over and I am back at work full-time, and I am going to be putting most of my after-work hours into the completion of the book, I have decided to provide sneak previews by posting excerpts every now and then on the blog. Sometimes these excerpts may not seem like complete posts because they are just that—excerpts of the book. But at least this way my readers will still see blog posts from time to time and it will give you an idea of what I am working on which will be released on the blog when I am finished.

Esoterically Understanding the Holy Trinity through Jesus the Man, and Jesus the God
In this post we are going to demystify the Trinity through the man Jesus, and Jesus Christ the God.
The person of Jesus Christ, as presented through mainstream Christian doctrine, gives to us the greatest paradox of all religions. How can a being be both fully man and fully God at the same time? A God who created the universe is not limited by physical parameters, but man certainly is. How then could Jesus be both limited and not limited, both God and man? Of course this is an impossibility that mainstream Christian doctrine chooses to ignore by simply having faith that it is just true. But does such a blind faith rob the believer of a deep spiritual truth about themselves? I believe it does. This will be a longer post, but when digested in its entirety it should give you some “aha!” moments if you have trouble understanding the nature of the Trinity.
