Heaven Past Present Future Ministries
ENCOURAGEMENT TO ETERNAL FOCUS IN UNITY AND FELLOWSHIP OF THE GOSPEL
Ministry History
Heaven Past Present Future Ministries was founded in early 2001 during the writing of the book Heaven Past Present Future: The Fulfillment of the times. It began as a burden for a more eternal focus in the Christian life, a Scriptural accurate view of the coming Kingdom of Christ apart from popular Christian myths and traditions, and proper unity of those to form in Christ's Body in a pure gospel message about heaven.
Material is now made available free of charge for non-profit use by internet web reading, printing and free download. Since all truth and understanding can only come through the Holy Spirit I strongly believe if possible truth should be distributed freely.
2 Corinthians 2:17
17 For we are not like many, peddling the word of God, but as from sincerity, but as from God, we speak in Christ in the sight of God. NASB
By faith God provides for such sharing of His truth from many sources to cover ministry costs. In 2004 to assist in growth a corporation was formed for operation of the ministry, William Henry Publishing, LLC.
We welcome comments and contribution from other students of Scripture. Many fellow children of God have made contributions. Also others have testified about the usefulness of the message in their lives.
Currently I serve bi-vocationally as a gospel minister of Jesus Christ and a board certified specialist in Family Medicine. At age 17 I accepted Jesus as personal Savior in prayer to the Father on February 3,1974 after hearing the gospel in a Fellowship of Christian Athlete meeting in Jonesboro, Arkansas. From that moment God called to ministry to represent Him in telling others of this wonderful message. The first publication of this calling was painting the word Jesus in Silver paint on the back of a 1969 tuxedo black hotrod Camaro muscle car. It is humorous today to look at those early years - people were being passed by "Jesus" as I drove my chariot furiously like Jehu of the Old Testament. I surrendered to that call of God by His grace July 16,1976. Since I have served as Pastor in nine Churches preaching for over thirty three years while also writing and sharing with anyone who will stop to listen. Currently I work in Emergency Rooms in several places in Arkansas as a ministry to those on the Jericho road of life doing the same.
The prayer and goal of this ministry is a better understanding of the journey of life apart from our Father in Heaven. The understanding of the purposes of God in His Kingdom past, Kingdom present, and Kingdom future shine great light on the dark paths of this world. Further since that final destiny of eternal life is available only by faith in the true gospel the ambassadors in this dark world must earnestly contend for the purity of the power of that gospel of the kingdom.
I have by grace been called as an ambassador of heaven to this world to tell others of the things of heaven. At one time I fought hard for patterns on earth without good understanding of there meaning. Over time in the study of the Kingdom of Heaven God revealed the earthly things are just patterns of the true in the heavens. Also the more I studied about heaven the more I became a stranger and pilgrim here with others on earth. I told my Pastor at one time, "I don't understand why I don't see things the way everyone else does." as we discussed the Lord's work in His local churches. Often when one looks at the division over earthly things both sides are right from the proper perspective of heaven or earth i.e. the Trinity, salvation by works or free grace, creation is six days or a longer time, etc. At other times our earthly practice is irreverent as Uzzah or Cain falsely picturing heavenly matters. Praise God for grace or I would have died long ago. Yet still in grace no matter the failures God still calls and my desire to share about heaven is overwhelming as evidenced by many publications. People actually run from me at times rather than discuss the eternal life we have in the heavens. Most would rather not know due to temporal focus. If I feel as Elijah like hiding far away in a cave when no one listens - a gentle still voice tells me there are 7000 who have not bowed their knee to Baal who seek the heavenly country more everyday as well. I look forward to fellowship with them in the new Kingdom to come and purpose to remain faithful.
What really matters is the gospel of Jesus Christ and following those heavenly patterns by faith. I would encourage you to make sure you have as a sinner approached God in prayer and personally accepted Jesus as your Savior from sin in a spiritual birth. Then read Scripture about heaven and design your life after that Kingdom promised to come. That kind of life will be well pleasing to the Lord. For me after a prayer to the Father accepting Jesus as Savior that meant water baptism as an earthly picture of my spiritual salvation in Jesus Christ. Then followed attending an assembly of believers, praising, giving, witnessing, dancing, writing and other things just as I will in heaven in that day. May God bless you with spiritual understanding as you further seek to please He who created you. As you study more about heaven this world will as well become strange indeed. C. S. Lewis once said, "Aim at heaven and you will get earth "thrown in": Aim at earth and you will get neither." Hence the motto of Heaven Past Present Future Ministries.
Eternal Focus in the Unity and Fellowship of the Gospel of Jesus Christ
