The Series Essays
(The order is… oldest descending to newest… but, all have been edited, to one degree or another, as I grow in grace and knowledge in Christ. Newer writing can be found with essays on the Writings Page… Site Blog… GJ Off-site Blog)
Expectation of Profit – Occupy Earth
The Hope of Our Calling… Chosen for an Inheritance
The Shadow – The Crown of Glory
Some of the essays are written in the format of a question or statement followed by scripture for answer or support.
Some are written with scripture references, which are listed in order in their entirety at the end of the essay. I often get more out of reading the scriptures as listed on their own than my own commentary… thus, the essays were written as so.
The essays are… just how I see it when I wrote them… I’m still learning… subject to correction… checkout the scriptures in context to verify for yourself.
These essays are subject to updates. As I continue to study, I come across scripture that makes sense in context of an essay… so… sometimes I’ll add it to an updated version.

15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful. 16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. Colossians 3
26 What is the outcome then, brethren? When you assemble, each one has a psalm, has a teaching, has a revelation, has a tongue, has an interpretation. Let all things be done for edification. (NASB) 1 Corinthians 14
27 For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish: thou hast destroyed all them that go a whoring from thee. 28 But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord God, that I may declare all thy works. Psalm 73:27-28
