The Kingdom of God 101: A Primer (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781448616329)

I can only claim to be a believer in and follower of the Lord Jesus Christ, my Savior and my God. To allow God's word to give its own testimony is my sole motivation. My walk is as a "Christian Individualist," without any affiliation with any "church" organization or group of any kind. So, I can't be dis-fellowshipped or kicked out. But, I can study to show myself approved of God without regard for what anyone else might think or say. I am a progressive and perpetual student of God's word, always and forever looking for His light to shine forth on any matter. I am one who has learned to think for myself, which is more than I can say for most people. Thinking is hard work, and many do not want to engage in it. I am one who is trying to place God first and foremost in all my thoughts, words and deeds.
