Most stories begin with, “Once upon a time...” but this story can not start that way because it has no beginning and it has no end. That's why it is hard to tell this story, but it is true. This story is about a Great King; the KING of kings and LORD of lords. This King was and always will be the greatest King. This King has many names but for the sake of this story I will be calling Him Eli. I picked this name because it means “My God.” Another reason it is hard to tell this story is that it resides in the realm of eternity while we are residing in the realm of time. This is the reason I can't say, “Once upon a time.” Now the realm of time has been within the realm of eternity since it was created, but trying to think out of this realm is very hard to do, if not impossible. But for the sake of this story we have to make some assumptions. So even though the story is true, some assumptions may not be completely accurate. One more point in this story should be mentioned at this time. Even though this story is about one King; one person, this King will appear in different ways. Sometimes as a consuming fire or a pillar of smoke or even a burning bush. Or as a Spiritual being or a Human being. Just like trying to understand time in eternity, trying to understand the person of this Great King is beyond our complete understanding. There are things we need to take by faith and this is one of them.

As an old hippie, Jesus freak, I cannot help but question authority. I have done so with established beliefs of major denominations. I compare what denominations teach as sound doctrine and compare them to what the Biblethe sole authorityteaches in reality. For example, hell is accepted and taught as literal fire and eternal torment when Scripture actually reveals something opposite and totally different.
