“… Know the truth and the truth shall set you free”, Jesus. These words were true when they were spoken and they are true today. The Almighty God as Head of His Kingdom (including Earth) is the greatest truth and His Standard of Right and Wrong is truth that even physicians draw on to set the captives free of their diseases. Theologians also do the same drawing on truth from the Bible. As truth can be drawn from both of these two sources, let’s pursue truth intentionally so that all humanity can benefit.
A CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER is to be ignorant of or reject TRUTH!

Pastors and Leaders
It’s time to teach God’s people how to explore the interface of their Faith and Scripture with “the things God made”. Science helps us see and understand Scripture by exploring “the things God made” in Nature. Steps to Wholeness, 2nd Edition (2022) and Steps to Wholeness: The Waymaker’s Journey (Westbow Press; 2023) by Bernard Stephenson (both available on Amazon) can help bridge the gap. It’s a complete, clearly defined and Bible-based Discipleship Manual perfect for small group discussions.

A CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER is to ignore the impact of immorality on climate disorder!
The Creator says it does have a negative impact causing natural disasters and global warming (Leviticus 18:27-29; Isaiah 24:5-6; Hosea 4:1-3,6). Science hasn’t tested this hypothesis as yet but it should as 8 billion people committing unbalancing immoral acts, and the championing of woke liberalism is bound to cause climate change. It’s just common sense!!! Repent and Return to the Ancient Paths!!! You cannot un-change the universal truth of living in the righteous kingdom of the Creator just because you don’t like or want it. One cannot keep their faith (in Jesus, truth, God’s Kingdom) out of the public life because truth is everywhere one looks for it - right in the middle of the public sphere.

“… Know the truth and the truth shall set you free”, Jesus.
A CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER is to be ignorant of or reject TRUTH as in propositional and Biblical truth. Most careers use truth as foundation for learning; politicians must as well. We all benefit when every leader does!!!

Yahweh, God of Israel, is the Head of the universe.
He has the right and authority to reign. He is King of kings and Lord of lords.
He chose Abraham to father Israel.
He chose Sarah over Hagar.
He chose Isaac over Ishmael.
He chose Jacob over Esau.
He transformed Jacob into Israel, God’s Prince.
He chose Jerusalem as the seat of His throne over every other city.
He sent Jesus, the Christ, to be the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world.
The first and most important duty of every human being is to repent and reinstall Yahweh as their Head and Jesus as their Lord and Saviour. We are then born again, indwelt and softened by His Holy Spirit and grafted into Israel.

People often ask me what is my book, Steps to Wholeness and Steps to Wholeness: The Waymaker’s Journey, about? It started off as my desire to showcase what I learned in Medicine as a way to clarify Scripture, the main source of truth. The Lord expanded it by giving me the full roadmap to Heaven revealed in Elijah’s epic journey with Elisha. Each of the 4 landmarks reveal an essential restorative path to Heaven. Gilgal restores the broken relationship with God, the Head. Bethel builds it into the rights and responsibilities of the Father - Child relationship. Jericho introduces us to the Holy Spirit’s role in leading us to redeem a fallen world and the Jordan River points us to the things God created as the other source of truth. In essence, the book reveals the essentials of our discipleship and leadership development.

Truth is made manifest by the things the Creator made. It takes the guessing out of Scriptural interpretation

Elijah’s epic journey before being taken up in a chariot of fire (1Kings2:1-11) reveals four areas of development for the Bible student. While the first three are generally covered in Bible schools and discipleship programs, the fourth area - making understanding of God and His kingdom plain by the things He created (Romans 1:19-20) - is generally neglected. ’scompletethejourney ’sjourney

‘Sola Scriptura’ or ‘Sola Torah’ or ‘Sola Spiritus Sanctus ’ is nothing by itself; they work together, just as you need both a healthy nervous system and DNA to be wise and have a quality life.

Truth deposited in creation must not be devalued as of less value than truth deposited in Scripture. Yahweh Emeth does not do that for all truth is from Him. Science is gaining ground on making the lens (magnifying glasses, telescope, microscope, etc.) we use to see better the truth. The Church and Biblical Scholarship must rightly discern, see their value and not be afraid to take advantage of them. To devalue truth found in the things created is anathema. Know that whatever Scripture rejects, truth also rejects. Anything else is fake news and fake science.

There are 2 essential beliefs or behaviours that every human being must accept because their rejection have eternal and life repercussions.
◦ Accept Yahweh, God of Israel, as Head and Ruler and Jesus, His Son, as King.
◦ Accept and live by the standard of righteous behaviour described in the Bible and exemplified in the things He created.
