God’s Successive Revelations Search Me diligently, and I will reveal Myself to you. Yah, that sound like something God would say. I understand He revealed the Trinity to us. I plead ignorance in Church history. Some theologians, perhaps 400 A.D. came upon this gem that we hold true today. The idea of the rapture is new on the Church radar. Late 1800’s? What if God revealed His truth to His people in time? Surely, Solomon was the wisest man in his day, but did he know about Pentecost? Daniel, the far seer, was only shown glimpses. What did he know of Peter and miracles in the temple? A certain king discovered God’s truth again and that made for a reformation, but what did he know of the beast standing in the sea?

Mother-in-law held up the Panasonic cassette player to march the bride. Proud Papa did say, “Her mother and I.” It was a humble wedding. A few were invited. Even fewer braved the September roads. The medium-sized First Christian Church of Aurora, Colorado let in the light. Lack of air flow brought sweat under my suited armpits. Finally, drops found their place to my forehead and I dropped to one knee. Grandma thought I had already proposed previously. A bit of confusion hung in the air until I stripped off my outerwear and got comfortable in the ...
