It was on a Saturday, June 4th, 2005 when I first met Les. It was an early morning, eight a.m., prayer meeting in a small store front fellowship.
We were there to Pray for the Body of Christ in our area and anything else that the Lord would make known. Prayer for personal and specific needs was also available.
A few of my friends, who were still going to other fellowships, were stopping by there from time to time and told me about this place. I had met these folks a week or two before and I found out that they were setting aside the first ten days of June for prayer and fasting. Anytime folks are willing to set aside time for prayer and fasting are people I’d like to get to know. Or so I thought. Everything is not always as it seems.
This is now the 4th day of prayer and in walks Les from California. He was in Manhattan for a book publishing conference and he wanted to see someone at the prayer meeting he had met once before at a Bible conference. He and his wife take the railroad from Manhattan. It’s a trip that takes about an hour and a half. When you consider the time and the cab fares you can see he made an effort.
Les walks into the prayer meeting with his wife and after a few minutes of pleasantries he states that he has a Web Site. The Title of the Web Site is “Christ is not God.” No one there seems to be upset about this and the Lord gives me grace. But I do ask God What’s up Lord? You see, I’ve never met people before who claim to be Christians and don’t know Jesus as their Lord and their God. After many years with the Lord, this is very new territory for me. I have this belief that conflict often has a benefit, but this. Help Lord!
I ask a few questions but mostly I just listen. Then Les says, he is going to Shea stadium to see a Mets baseball game. He is looking at over two hours to get there by train and subway. I feel God wants me to take him so I offer to give him a ride. Why not? I figure I’ll have him in the car for an hour or so and we can talk.
Les seemed like a nice guy, a school teacher about 35. This belief came to him from his father who wrote a book on the subject. We covered a lot of territory about a few subjects and you could tell that Les knew the scriptures and had answers for most of my questions about Jesus being God. I dropped him off at the Stadium and gave him a few research papers of my own. I asked him to send his fathers book if he got the chance.
His 1st letter arrived the week of July 18th, 2005. Along with a book, ( not his fathers ) about how the Trinity, One God in three persons, was in error. He said, Jesus is not God.
Since I had met Les 6 weeks before I had been doing my own research on Is Jesus God?
The letters you are about to read are based on that research. As of this date seven letters have been sent and three have been received. Names and places have been changed, the letters have been edited adding some new ideas for clarity and removing personal and none essential information of the main topic, Is Jesus God?
