Whether so inclined or not, inherent in our foundational belief system are deep seated religious overtones which shapes our societal culture. This culture lays the framework for our values and all that we believe. Not only does our beliefs and values shapes our attitudes and guides our behavior, but it also influences our biology, as well as our emotive and spiritual states, not withstanding it determines the collective consciousness of a society Most of these concepts and beliefs that we have accepted and which govern our lives have been handed down to us unconsciously from generation to generation without question minus any objective reasoning. This is primarily so for fear of consequences, consequences which for the most part are unfounded. The Third Testament is designed to activate thought process, to initiate questions in the mind of the reader so as to deliberate on what you have been taught to accept for generations. We ask questions but seek answers that can only be assimilated within our present schema, hence facts don't determine what we believe, it is what we believe which determine what we accept as fact. The Third Testament presents information, ideas and concepts that forces us to challenge our beliefs and what we have been conditioned to accept for years. It forces us to think, and it's contents cannot be disregarded by any true diligent seeker.

After several years of biblical study, I concluded that the truth, the Word of God, was essential and that no other religion is with that mode. After a tentative beginning in 1987, it is a ready-for-the-world, mature religion now. The religion is mercifully short, borrowing key components from the Old and New Testaments. It presents what I consider the best of Jesus, but I am fully aware that much more could have been included in the category of best. Short of breaking down all of Jesuss sayings, I opted for what I considered the most important for daily life. Im sure some readers will find glaring omissions. The Sermon on the Mount speaks of being blessed, as most Bibles state. I prefer being happy or having happiness, as substituted in The Jerusalem Bible. When I speak of being happy, what comes to mind are components that did not exist during the time Jesus lived: many genres of music and the wide availability of marijuana. Jesus said to visit the sick and the imprisoned. I hope to make this life better by even allowing alcohol and several for those incarcerated. I am an optimist (see Ecclesiastes 3:18). Jesus never charged a penny for teaching. The God of Daniel is God the Father. 1) Jesus, 2) Beatitudes, 3) marijuana, and 4) time and a season to every purpose under the heaven.
