The goal of this website is to present a worldview that explains how God operates and how the concepts people talk about, to express their beliefs, fit into the worldview.
The order of explanation can best be explained by imagining a mosaic that is 200 miles long and 50 miles high. The wall is made up of tiles that are hundreds of feet square.
Most people are within arm's length of the mosaic. They are looking at a blue tile, for instance. However, they are telling each other that the wall is completely blue. In fact, there are people walking up and down the blue section explaining to the people more detailed facts about the blue wall.
If one were to leave the comfort of the crowd and back several hundred feet away from the wall, he would notice that he was looking only at a blue tile. He would realize the wall is not entirely blue, but made up of different color tiles. Everyone at this distance would feel superior to the others because they realize the wall isn't entirely one color. .
If one continued moving away from the wall, he would find the vast number of tiles overwhelming. It would appear the wall is nothing more than a random collection of colors. At this point the individual must make a hard decision. Continue this uncomfortable journey away from the wall or return to the comfort of the crowd?
If he perseveres and moves further from the wall, he would find the tiles make up a picture of a man standing on grass. It now appears the wall is a mosaic and is actually trying to portray an image. As he encounters people who have walked parallel to the wall, or read what others have learned, he finds people talking about "a fish out of water". In an effort to agree, he thinks they must be speaking figuratively and have interpreted the man to be the "fish out of water".
However, if he were to decide to get as far away from the wall as possible in order to take in the Big Picture, he would eventually find the mosaic is of a person teaching a man how to fish.
Most people focus on becoming an expert on the details of a belief system. They walk closer to the wall. This website is attempting to take you far enough away from the wall that you get the Big Picture. The wall is the worldview.
