Book Cover & Preview Text
Putting it all together, we see that repentance means changing what we think, from the old way of thinking to the new way of thinking. Change Your Thinking From: Entrusting in our own words and acts, under the law. Change Your Thinking To: Entrusting in Jesus Christ and his words and acts. Change Your Thinking From: Judging and dissociating with those who miss the mark. Change Your Thinking To: Eating and drinking with the tax-collectors and ones missing the mark, those offending against the law, to influence them to entrust Christ. Change Your Thinking From: Not knowing by seeing between right and left (wrong). Change Your Thinking To: Trusting in Almighty, with each man turning back from his bad walkway. Change Your Thinking From: The service of death. Change Your Thinking To: The service of the spirit. Change Your Thinking From: Offense against the law has been & is reigning in death. Change Your Thinking To: Grace has been & is reigning through justification into life ever-existing, through Jesus Christ. Change Your Thinking From: Not knowing that as many as were whelmed into Christ Jesus were whelmed into his death. Not knowing we were interred with him through the whelming into death. Change Your Thinking To: Just as Christ: Messiah [anointed] was roused from the dead ones; in this way also, we have been & are walking in a new life. Change Your Thinking From: Account yourselves to exist dead ones, in fact, to offenses against the law. Change Your Thinking To: Account yourselves living for Almighty in Christ Jesus. Change Your Thinking From: Existing under the parceled-out-food of the law. Change Your Thinking To: Existing under grace. Change Your Thinking From: Judging others based on what you see happening to them by authorities or accident. Change Your Thinking To: Avoid judging others; focus on hearing the word and understanding it for yourself. Change Your Thinking From: Will we offend against the law because we do not exist under the parceled-out-food of the law, contrariwise, under grace? Change Your Thinking To: Having been exempted from the moral liability of offenses against the law, you(p) became servants of justification. Change Your Thinking From: Just as you(p) offered your limbs & parts as servants to impurity and from wickedness into wickedness. Change Your Thinking To: In this way now offer your limbs & parts as servants of justification into being set-apart. Change Your Thinking From: The set-out conclusion of those is death! Change Your Thinking To: The set-out conclusion is life ever-existing. Change Your Thinking From: Sadness of the world order which accomplishes death. Change Your Thinking To: Sadness, according to Almighty, for delivery & saving. Change Your Thinking From: Those provoking to anger, and disbelieving the truth, but assenting to the injustice, violent passion, and fierceness (leading to slaughter); pressure and calamity upon every living & breathing soul of human beings working fully the worthless, depraved & injurious. Change Your Thinking To: Those, in fact, acting good according to constancy, glory [very apparent value], and dignity, and seeking an unending existence, life ever-existing. Change Your Thinking From: Paying attention to fictions and unfinished genealogies, which bring endless searching out. Change Your Thinking To: The stewardship of Almighty in entrusting; the goal of the transmitted message exists love, from a pure core [values & beliefs] and good consciousness, and entrusting sincerely. Change Your Thinking From: The ones setting themselves opposite; the trap or trick of the traducer [false accuser]. Change Your Thinking To: Full discernment of the truth, coming to your senses. Change Your Thinking From: Offenses against the law. Change Your Thinking To: Getting hold of the free gift of the Set-apart Spirit. Change Your Thinking From: What you(p) practiced repeatedly, according to not knowing (ignorance), exactly like also your rulers. Change Your Thinking To: Your incidents of missing the mark will be smeared out & pardoned. And that might come the set & proper times of recovery of living & breathing souls. Change Your Thinking From: Your worthless & injurious depravity, and the purpose of your core [values & beliefs]. Change Your Thinking To: Your core [values & beliefs] exist straight, right, in front of Almighty. Change Your Thinking From: Separated from Christ: Messiah [anointed], having been a non-participant in the community of Israel [prevail as Self-Existent], and aliens to the covenant of the divine assurance of good, not possessing any confident expectation of good, and without Almighty in the world order, existing at a distance; aliens and sojourners (living nearby). Change Your Thinking To: Brought near in the blood of Christ; reconciled fully in one sound, whole body, to Almighty, through the cross; admission of both in one spirit to the father; citizens together with the set-apart ones, and relatives of the family of Almighty; being constructed together into a dwelling place of Almighty in spirit. Change Your Thinking From: Perishing. Change Your Thinking To: Ever-existing life. Change Your Thinking From: Having fallen aside, once more to newly attain into repentance [think differently afterward], by re-crucifying the son of Almighty for themselves, and putting him to open shame. Change Your Thinking To: Having become participants in the Set-apart Spirit, and having tasted the beautiful & good (rhema) word of Almighty, and powers of the about-to-be age to perpetuity. Change Your Thinking From: Having left your foremost love; retaining the instruction of the Nicolaitans [victorious over the people] similarly [teaching that rank-and-order in the called-out governing body controls all.]; leaving alone Jezebel. Change Your Thinking To: Overcoming (idolatry & adultery); being given to eat from the tree the life which exists in the Paradise [park of pleasure] of Almighty. Change Your Thinking From: You possess an identity that you live, but you exist dead. Change Your Thinking To: Become awake & watching; vested in white garments; and no not ever have your identity wiped out from the book of life; and have his identity covenanted in the face of our father, and in the face of his messengers. Change Your Thinking From: Ignoring his standing at the door and knocking. Change Your Thinking To: Hearing his voice and opening up the entrance; receive him, dine with him; sit down with him on his throne. Change Your Thinking From: A physical temple with the priests offering animals and grains to Almighty to cover over the offenses against the law. Change Your Thinking To: A spiritual dwelling place called the called-out governing body, the Body of Christ, where we, the priesthood, offer sacrifices of praise for all the completed works which Jesus Christ already accomplished for us. Change Your Thinking From: The Old original formation (creation), as mere human beings. Change Your Thinking To: The New original formation (creation), the new species of being, set-apart to serve others in the identity of Jesus Christ. Entrusters are spiritual beings. Change Your Thinking From: His plans not being our plans and his walkways not being our walkways in the Old Covenant. Change Your Thinking To: Him putting the principles of his laws into our deep thought; and written upon our cores [values & beliefs], in the New Covenant. Change Your Thinking From: My thoughts, my plans, my walkways. Change Your Thinking To: His thoughts, his plans, his walkways, with his Set-apart Spirit in me to guide me 24/7/365 (always). Life is for repenting, changing the way we think, and thinking differently after we learn the good news of the gospel of grace. This will include changing our thinking from physical terms in a physical realm to spiritual terms in a spiritual realm.

About the Author
I was born at the height of World War 2, to a sharecropper who was totally in bondage to his landowner masters. I spent most of my pre-adult life in extreme poverty, partially due to the size of the brood, twelve siblings, and partially due to the greedy and manipulative overlords. Often, I was forced to go shoeless, in hand-me-downs, doing the chores of feeding pigs and chickens, and milking cows by hand, on the clay-nob farms of my childhood. I suffered malnutrition to the point that my belly was bloated and distended, looking more like a starving urchin in a war-torn land. Where was Almighty in this? I had no clue, other than that he seemed to have saved my life from utter destruction a number of times. I was the runt of the litter in physical dimensions. Therefore, I was continually picked on, pummeled, and harassed by siblings and schoolmates. I learned protective defense mechanisms early on, like isolation and avoidance. I took to manipulating teachers who felt sorry for me, facetiously submitting to them for errands during recess, as the teacher’s pet, in order to avoid time on the playground. I soon calculated that this submissive demeanor had long-term benefits, like drawing favors and attention during class, and receiving elevated grades in the process. This provoked a cycle of increased jealousy and hatred from classmates, but increased attention and protection from under-appreciated tutors, who relished my willingness to heel to my masters. Where was Almighty in this? I suspected that he was just another authority figure to manipulate. I wept to somehow get to know him. This obeisance to authority figures worked admirably throughout home life and primary and secondary schools. It failed miserably in the larger world of higher education and corporate wrestling for promotion. There were far too many unscrupulous competitors, with better looks, better talents, and familial resources to charm the ever-so-hungry academics and bosses. A new strategy was needed. That strategy was perfectionism. It first showed up in rote memory of all the professor’s enunciated whims; then, in attention to every nuanced detail of the desires of the superior. Unfortunately, this backfired when the superiors took all the credit for comprehensive research and profitable innovation. A crisis of resentment against authority and self-loathing followed. I had taught them to take full advantage of me. I felt abandoned by Almighty, another disappointed and disappointing superior. The mismatch between striving for gains, and watching them being snatched away, prompted a new, entrepreneurial spirit. I was able, as an independent contractor, to truly develop better mousetraps. There was a marketplace for these in the form of creative solutions and efficient processes which satisfied the needs of management — who saw the needs (in many cases it was obvious) but did not have either the will or ability to take on the challenges themselves. As a consultant and contractor, I was able to travel to sites where management needed results, quickly; and were not so concerned with academic prowess. Word-of-mouth was the only marketing tool. Finding and filling this expanding pool of deficiencies became an exhaustive job of travel and work that soon consumed an average of 16 hours a day, 7 days a week. It could not continue. After nearly 25 years, the rat race came to a shattering end. I had exhausted my energy and my pride. I realized that my works did not make a lasting impression on my clients, nor a worthwhile impression on the Supreme Authority of all. I spent several years with fill-in assignments and part-time agreements. However, in the spare time that these temporary distractions afforded, I was able to begin the search for wisdom. I began to find it concealed, where it was supposed to be, hidden in the word of Almighty. Applying the lessons of analysis and measurement I had learned over the years; I started to piece together the secrets of life. It seems Almighty had always had a plan and He, the real Supreme Authority, was more than willing, by his grace, to share this plan freely with anyone who would attentively hearken. Digging out, piling up, and organizing these pearls of great value has resulted in The Meaning Bible (TMB) and these Learning Modules that you see. It is with great joy that I offer them to you. I hope you learn from them; and give him all the glory. Your humble servant, Freedman Thune
