The Quickening.

A coming to life.

The beginning of vivification; of enlightenment; of being born again.

Quickened into a new purpose; a new destiny; and a new life work in Jesus.

The true meaning of Christianity:  the coming of age of the newly-saved person.

The greatest target of our adversary; the greatest time in the new Christian's life

for attacks and opposition from he who would have us fail.

The steps in the process of becoming Christian--TRULY Christian, with the

acceptance of the responsibility and life-architecture of one who would be like

Christ; think like Christ; and do the work that he commanded us to do.

What are these steps?  How do we avoid being "waylaid?" 

Below you will find essays, pictorials, and philosophies on what the steep

steps up the "rough side of the mountain" might be like in the lives of new Christians--

and what it should be like for all of us who profess this faith....

This is a document which I began to write as my indignation with the society in which I live

continued to grow.  I am no saint, but Paul was--and am working on a fictional document that

observes the Americans from Paul's eyes--strictly for entertainment purposes, of course! 

It is a work in progress, and it is:

The Letter Of Paul To The Americans

The next document is called "The Order Of Eight," and discusses eight possible stages

in our lives that--if we lived this way--would lead us not only ultimately to an understanding

of things and to Christ, but of our place in the cosmos and how to help others.

Here it is:  The Order Of Eight

Another document that might be of use deals with prayer--and the modern, cavalier

attitude that we take toward it; sometimes, we act like God is a vending machine...

I had some ideas about God as King Of The Universe, and how we should think about

approaching the Throne:  even though Jesus imputes to us the RIGHT to boldly

approach the throne, we should still concentrate on RIGHTNESS and RESPECT.

The next diagram gives you an idea of what I mean:  here it is:

The Perimeters Of Prayer:  The Stairway To Heaven

When one investigates the growth in the Christian life, we sometimes find that it

reaches a point, and then stops.

Unfortunately, this truncation of the evolutionary process of growth can impede or

completely derail the actions that the mature Christian should ultimately take:

the step of evangelism, according to Christ's request in the Great Commission.

I have included a short, one-page study with an amplification on the evolutionary

stages of Christian growth for your perusal:

Have you ever thought about the brain as a computer? 

Would that make the soul the "software?"

It is a new concept which was written about in PARRC Research in 1999, and is

now becoming increasingly popular; here is a .PDF of the document which presents

a compelling idea:  read The Soul As A Database!

What about healing?

An idea of a "power conduit" which could govern the "energy" sent from heaven

to us for the purpose of healing--just for fun--is found here:  Healing And Power!

There are Christians; then there are Christian Soldiers.

Christian Soldiers are literally marching as to war against the adversary; arrayed in the

Full Armor Of God, prepared to provide a ready defense of the faith, and committed

to the Great Commission--and its' fulfillment in our lifetime.

Now that is a lot:  so you know that these people are going to suffer a bit, right?

The description of this process of growing and preparation--in concert with other

essays and depictions like "Evolutionary," "The High Ground," and others--is this one:

"Preparatory:  The Hollow Lands, Missals I-IV."

Each of these four one-page essays gives an estimation and evaluation of the major

steps that committed, evangelical defenders of the faith probably will have to go through.

Here they are, for your approval:

Preparatory:  The Hollow Lands:  Missal I:  The Valley Of Shadows

Preparatory:  The Hollow Lands:  Missal II:  The Long March

Preparatory:  The Hollow Lands:  Missal III:  The Elijah Task

Preparatory:  The Hollow Lands:  Missal IV:  The Rose And The Thorn

Are we fulfilling the Great Commission?  What is the role of PARRC Research in

the obedience to this direct command of Jesus?  What is Evidentiary Science

and Dispersion Theory--and how do they address this great task?

Read this document which not only answer this question, but shows how

PARRC Research plays a COMPLEMENTARY role in the study of Christian

belief:  we don't want to re-invent the wheel--we just want to make it

roll better than ever!  Go to the web page that discusses--

 "The Wreck Of The Great Commission!"

Many people have come to the conclusion that God is dead.

Many have given up hope because of some calamity in their lives.

Some have become discouraged due to what seem to be unanswered prayers;

others submit to quiet desperation as they see more and more crooks--

disguised as ministers of the faith--be greater apostates than those of the enemy.

What if we were in a period of silence, replete with rules and regulations which

have applied before?  What if we are in a new "Malachi" period of silence--

when, for 400 years God was quiet?  REALLY quiet?

Wouldn't this make more sense than the impossible "God is dead" nonsense?

Read "The Malachi Abyssal" to give you another unique perspective on faith!

Chaos in the world today accounts for most of the evil that abounds.

If we could reduce chaos--say, if there was a "force" called "anti-chaos" that we

could use to help dispel the chaotic forces in our lives and help us to be more at

peace with ourselves, those around us, and the world in general--

--would this be of value?

Take a look at a possible tool in this fight; you can access it by clicking on the

 PARRC study called "Anti-Chaos Theory!"

Evidentiary Science is so new that it begs to be described in great detail so that those

who are unfamiliar can see the value--but most importantly, can see that it is a rigorous,

steel-clad system which is meant to provide the Body Of Christ with reasons to believe

that are beyond a doubt.

One of the ways that this is enforced is through the use of what we call "Boundaries--"

rigid frontiers beyond which we will not venture in our evidentiary activities due to the

fact that these barriers are implied logistically to give us confidence in our scholarship.

Take a look at the "Boundaries!"

Biblical Truth is immutable, unchangeable, immortal.

In an study called "The Frontier: Twenty Points On How The Truths Of The Bible

Should Be Viewed," we examine the veracity of the truth of the Bible--and the way

a good Christian should accept them.

The Frontier is as far out as you can see:  the truths of the Bible go beyond the

Frontier, into the unknowable--so I think we can trust it!

Click on "The Frontier" to see the twenty points!

How should we live?

How do we get from the world, the flesh, and the devil--and into the kingdom of God?

What do we do when we get there?  How do we serve mankind with the gospel?

Take a look at one approach from the old life to the new in "The High Ground!"

Have you ever thought about how physical laws might affect the way all things are?

Since God created all things, and physics--for example--is the mathematical representation

of His creation, then is it not possible that the laws of physics might figure into how things

work?  Could it be possible that the "rules" are staring us in the face?

We bet that this still sounds esoteric--so read "Reciprocity" and see exactly what we mean...

How about relativity?

If you thought it was the exclusive province of Albert Einstein, you are wrong...

He just made it popular; however, he still was kind of bright, wasn't he?

Relativity--believe it or not--applies to evangelism and what PARRC calls Dispersion Theory.

Relativity might figure into a more effective production of converted souls to Christ in our

work toward the Great Commission--believe it or not.  Read about it in "Relativity!"

You have made the decision to come to Christ.

You are a new Christian--a babe in the faith.

This next essay describes things you should think about at you take your first steps forth

in the faith--things of great importance so that your ascendancy in your walk in the Spirit

is strong and clear--and that you may resist the wiles of the Devil:  read "The Steps!"
