"Open my eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of Your law" (Psalm 119:18). This is the on-going prayer of our heart, both for ourselves, and for all who read this book. It is written with the hope that it will serve as a confirmation to that which God sovereignly reveals to you. And we freely confess that it is but a "Whisper" concerning His new covenant with man.Certainly the new covenant bespeaks of a love relationship of God with His creation. "For God so loved the world that He gave..." (John 3:16). Indeed, "God commends His love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." (Romans 5:8). The initial action is on God's part. "No man can come unto Me, except the Father which has sent Me draw him." (John 6:44). It is His Spirit working in us, drawing us, that creates our responsive action. It is His grace imparted to us, working in us, that brings about our walking pleasing in His sight. As Paul so aptly said, "and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God." (Ephesians 2:8).
It will take the ages to come to reveal the depths of the new covenant, that FULL ARRANGEMENT which we have in Christ Jesus. Suffice it for now that we keep our eyes single to Him, that He may perfect His will in us for today. With joy we dedicate this book to all those who would walk in the freedom of His Spirit, unfettered by the creeds and dogma of men, and works of the flesh which only gender bondage. HE is our LIFE. amen.
NOT TO BE SOLD-- this book is given free, as a ministry of love. That which is contained therein cannot be valued in terms of material goods. If there be any thoughts expressed that seem to be the result of only natural thinking, we trust that a little breath of kindness will blow the chaff away, that the kernel of truth might remain.
