Book excerpt: “Waarheen nou...???”, means “Where to now...???” This book is about: The road of truth and untruth, are eternally running alongside each other. Untruth or falsehood being ‘the truth + 1’ or ‘the truth - 1’. Almost always, the same. Often, unrecognizable from the real truth! The author was spoken to, from Above! He was taught by The Creator Himself and the set-apart Spirit. He was ordained to write this book, to guide the lost sons & daughters, back to the Fatherhouse. As tracker, shepherd and guide, he must prepare the way, like John the Baptist, for the people, to be ready as “spotless bride”, for the second coming of our Messiah. The people must be led back on the original track, to follow in their Master’s footsteps. As physically in Old Testament times, now spiritually. The general theme in the book is: “The second exodus out of Babylon.” Faith alone, is not enough! Without obedience, faith cannot suffice! If Abraham, the ‘Father of Faith’, just believed, would we still acknowledge him as ‘idol’? It is in fact because of his obedience, that we can honor him, as a true believer! Very important to sort out in your own life: “Surely you know that when you surrender yourselves as slaves to obey someone, you are in fact the slaves of the master you obey---either of sin, which results in death, or of obedience, which results in being put right with God.” (Rom.6:16) According to Mat.7:14 (KJV) the following: “Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there are that find it.” Good News Bible states it more describing: “But the gate to life is narrow and the way that leads to it is hard, and there are few people who find it.” Many people are ‘happy-go-lucky’ fellows or ‘devil-may-care’ guys, on the highway. They must be led back, before going totally astray! An escalator only has two directions; up or down. If you want to go UP, there is no place for a ‘highway’ or ‘my-way’; only “Thy way”! The author, also known as ‘errand boy’ or ‘messenger’, must share what he was shown. He must tell what he heard, because: “...faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of Elohim.” (Rom.10:17) He must tell, lead and encourage the people to find the whole truth and do the right deeds, and make a ‘u-turn’, to get on to the right track. See what Psalm 53:3&4 says: “Elohim looks down from heaven at people to see if there are any who are wise, any who worship Him. But they have all turned away; they are all equally bad. Not one of them does what is right, not a single one.” (GNB) Or according to KJV: “to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek Elohim. Every one of them is gone back: they are altogether become filthy; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.” The road is not easy! It is a 4X4 adventure, through the desert, not an easy ‘highway-to-heaven’, as we know it! The people have been misled, either knowingly or unknowingly. They have been tricked to take the highway or sideway, the easy way. The full truth and right way, have been disguised, ignored, twisted and concealed on purpose. Many a time, through ‘intentional’, cunning, translation “mistakes”. In Scripture, in 2Corintians 11:12, we are warned: “Even Satan can disguise himself to look like an angel of light!” & “And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.” The deception is allowed by The Almighty, because of His people’s unfaithfulness and idolatry. (Isa.43:28 & 44:18, Eze.12:2 & Mat.13:14) He ‘blindfolded’ many, because of their rebellion against Him and His commandments. He will allow this temporary ‘blindness & deafness’, until we humble ourselves and turn back to Him, as Creator of heaven and earth, and acknowledge His Name, as set apart and above all names. According to 2Chron.7:14, He promised: “If My people, which are called by My Name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgiv
