Expertise
I can answer questions on Biblical text concerning parables, of both the physical and acted nature. This also applies to prophesy comparing the physical with the spiritual.
Experience
I have been studying for 28 years.
Organizations
I am a Seventh-day Adventist.
Publications
Review and Herald. Discipleship Journal.
Education/Credentials
There are no educational credentials in the field of Biblical word studies. It is a simple five step process. Pray for guidance. Identify a text that may have a physical and spiritual meaning. Identify the key words. Look the key words up in a concordance and read the text to obtain the spiritual meaning. Substitute the spiritual meaning into the original text.
Awards and Honors
I am not aware of anyone handing out awards for Bible studies but there are a number of religious leaders that have used my studiess.
Past/Present Clients
