Book Cover & Preview Text
I find this sequel elaboration on the thoughts of God having an eternal and glorious Construction Plan, a program for the transcendent transformation of man by a heavenly rebirth to be exceptionally edifying. It forces us to focus correctly on our Church of the Eschaton and to pursue its divine blessings and duties by studying more seriously the apostolic teaching. While we have always and will always worship the heavenly Father based on His reconciliation through the merciful gift of a remedial pardon through Jesus’ vicarious atonement, we now discover even further that such grace served His purposes to fully complete our construction according to a transcendent transformation (rebirth from above) by sharing in the life of His Own and Only Beloved Son, Jesus the Christ, through the outpoured Holy Spirit as it began at Pentecost. Of course, we must wonder for what goals and tasks as our responsibilities He is and has been working through such precious and powerful spiritual gifts. He is bringing that glorious Construction Project to its as-of-yet incomplete implementation! I invite and encourage you to join me in this struggle and quest to experience the Christian faith on levels and in realities that reach even to the hopes of the apostles’ visions for the Church in this present Eschaton.

About the Book
Having shared my first booklet, ‘Genesis 3 Christianity’, with a friend, the critique I received from him was that I did not adequately offer an alternative to that gospel of ‘sins-forgiven-going-to-heaven-when-I-die’. I made a good defense by pointing out the subtitle, ‘and a Look Beyond it’, as well as having spent pages discussing a more advanced gospel description for which I used the term ‘transcendent transformation’. I felt my defense well made; but over the days the thought continued to press upon me that the critique of one form of the gospel perhaps deserved a more complete presentation of a more complete gospel message. And so we have this sequel booklet, ‘God’s Construction Plan—The Transcendent Transformation of Man—Born of the Spirit’. The structure of this booklet, the sequential developments of God’s Plans over His dispensations, is meant both to expose some common misunderstandings of believers and also to point out the always higher ways of God. May you enjoy the quest in better discovering God’s great Construction Plans for yourself, for His plans for the glory of humanity, and all for the pleasure of God!
