1000 Homilies

My writing is not scripture. Oh, how I hope to be appreciated like John Bunyan or Martin Luther, or St. Augustine and not like Charles Russel or Ellen G. White. I will proclaim, "I am not a Prophet!" If only so my writing can be blessed, and listened to like an earnest homily. Where there is error, ignore it, but it is my hope.

My writing are prayers, you see, Intelleto, they are sermons, and a record kept of who I was... not even to teach, but to witness. As I witness the world around me, I don't teach you, but I tell you what I see. Through it all, I saw love, joy and peace were preeminent above all other things, and were the  foundation of my morality. And all of that proceeded from Christ. From no other spring.

As Christ's words were my morsel, my meat. And I imbued them, and understood them, and ate them as my bread, with tears. And His saints, I carefully listened to, too, as witnesses of His majesty. I listened, and extracted from them a core theology... not as scripture. But, as witness of God's goodness, and the shelter He provides, and the truths He proclaims.

"I can write like God, I just don't want to." I can write like God, too. But, so can a Muslim, and so can a False Prophet. Therefore, understand that the Bible is witness. That is where it lends credibility, is that those verses contain the witness of God's majesty, and not the tone is what makes it true. But, the witness.

And all true writing is witness. We witness God, and He teaches. Selah. But only 66 books are scripture. Only 66 books are the narrow gate. All other paths are thieves and liars, and all other books contain some error, even if minute.
