12th Anniversary!

Dear Readers,

 

September 2023 will be the 12th anniversary of Life in the Key of J! Please join me in praising The Lord for the considerable progress made to-date, and especially for His abiding faithfulness to achieve His intended purposes for this ministry, which include you. I send my appreciative thanks to those of you who prayed, commented on posts, and provided encouraging general feedback over the years as I sought to address wide-ranging, deeply strategic Bible topics. I trust the seeds sown herein are bearing The Lord’s intended fruits in your lives, as they are in mine.

 

In September, join me in celebrating our progress to-date. Here’s how you can help:

 

A. Please complete this short, 3-question survey, and return your responses to me at KeyofJLife@gmail.com:

 

1. How has this ministry influenced your ability to read challenging Bible topics with deeper, strategic clarity and understanding, then confidently share with others (Christians and non-Christians alike) some key insights you have learned? 

 

Here’s why: So much of this ministry provides (a) effective witness materials for non-believers who may be clueless of The Lord’s incredible love for them, and concern for their eternal future; and also (b) clarifying, cross-Scripture, ‘dot-connecting’ insights for believers who may otherwise read The Bible chapter-and-verse, as a ‘religious book’, missing so much of its deeper, strategic messages us and the world, at large.

 

2. To what extent have the posts triggered your deeper study of the noted Scripture references, as well as of other relevant (external) resources on the topics addressed?

 

Here’s why: The Lord commands us to grow-up in Him. Mature Christ ‘disciples’ recognize the Power of God is His Word, The Holy Bible, which power is released as we take time, and are ‘disciplined’ to allow it to be activated in our lives by His Spirit. Thus, my posts are generally footnoted with numerous cross-Scripture references to promote, and hopefully trigger your deeper, topical study to produce faith-sustaining spiritual growth through the predicted challenging times ahead. To me, this is critical.

 

3. What posts and/or topical series have you actively shared to help spread fresh insights you learned, and generally, with whom/where have you shared them?

 

Here’s why: After the pending rapture of us 3^rd age saints, The Lord promises to dispatch 144,000 anointed, Jewish witnesses in the 4^th age (tribulation). Last year, He revealed to me much of their job will be ‘to finish the job the church didn’t complete’, largely due to our lackadaisicalness, lukewarmness, loss of spiritual saltiness, etc. toward the end of this 3^rd age of history, the age of His Grace to all (called the church age). (See: Audacious Christians and Laodicean Lackadaisicalness) And since He promised ‘to pour out of His Spirit’ in the latter days of this age, to me, sharing fresh insights He’s pouring out is absolutely critical, as it should be to any/all mature/maturing Christians. Imagine how what you share might help people who are alive in this age, to avoid the agony awaiting them if they become Christ-believers in the next age of tribulation, with unimaginable pressures from the anti-Christ man! Moreover, 'what we give away, we better retain.' Perhaps like me, you also have learned this key life principle~ 

 

B. Finally, if this ministry has significantly enhanced your ‘strategic understanding’ of challenging Bible topics, please make a small, $1 donation (or foreign currency equivalent) for each year of this ministry work …12 years. Please send your donation via Paypal.com, addressed to KeyofJLife@gmail.com.

 

Here’s why: Scripture throughout teaches us to ‘physically bless those who bless us spiritually’. Lord knows I trust any spiritual blessings I may have imparted are much more valuable to you and The Lord than $12 (or foreign currency equivalent). I deeply appreciate the handful of you who have recognized and practiced this principle. May others of you also do so, as well. While it is from The Lord, Himself, that we are to receive the BIGGEST portion of encouragement, encouragement from ‘someone with skin’ (quote from an ole story) is also valuable, and is part of The Lord’s system, as well. Finally, from the start, my intention has been, and remains, to provide an environment ‘free of ads and pop-up disruptions’ within which you might ponder deep, spiritual concept from across The Bible. 

 

I look forward to hearing from you as I continue to obey what He instructed me to do: (a) re-read The Bible, applying my skills as an international economic development strategic planner (in the U.S. diplomatic corps), and (b) freely share what I learn. I’m enjoying passing along to you what The Lord is pouring into me. 

 

Peaceful blessings and bountiful thanks,
