YES, I AM - by Norman Grubb

YES, I AM - by Norman Grubb ;..It is over forty years since I was led, I believe by the Holy Spirit, to write the first of this series of books on the one reality which has absorbed me all these years: Paul’s mystery, now made manifest, of "Christ in you, the hope of glory."

The first book, The Law of Faith, was followed by The Liberating Secret, The Deep Things of God, The Spontaneous You, God Unlimited, and Who Am I? I have had many evidences that the inner truth I’ve sought to share has, by the revelation of the Holy Spirit, become that same reality in many.

Like a fiddle with one string, I still write about this reality, which I boldly call Total Truth. My "textbook," my authority, has always been solely the Bible, and still is - the Bible inwardly illuminated and made the sole key to life by the Holy Spirit; just as Jesus said, "The words I speak unto you, they are spirit and they are life."

I call this book YES, I AM because I would not write it if it were not, by great grace, a personally experienced reality to me, even as it is to many others of you. For as Jesus said, "We speak what we do know and testify to what we have seen."

People Argue Just to Win, Scholars Assert - NYTimes.com ;..  For centuries thinkers have assumed that the uniquely human capacity for reasoning has existed to let people reach beyond mere perception and reflex in the search for truth. Rationality allowed a solitary thinker to blaze a path to philosophical, moral and scientific enlightenment.

Now some researchers are suggesting that reason evolved for a completely different purpose: to win arguments. Rationality, by this yardstick (and irrationality too, but we’ll get to that) is nothing more or less than a servant of the hard-wired compulsion to triumph in the debating arena. According to this view, bias, lack of logic and other supposed flaws that pollute the stream of reason are instead social adaptations that enable one group to persuade (and defeat) another. Certitude works, however sharply it may depart from the truth.

Why is the Romney Campaign Talking So Crazy? - The Daily Beast

Why is the Romney Campaign Talking So Crazy? - The Daily Beast PATRIOTS ;... America's first black president has just lost re-election. A new leader tries to pull the country out of a terrible recession - only to face a devilish plot from inside his own party. David Frum's darkly comic satire PATRIOTS is not only a warning about the future of American politics. It is a scorching, intimate explanation of why the U.S. political system has so badly failed the American people over the years just past.   A naïve young man finds himself caught in a complex scheme involving blowhard radio hosts, an angry right-wing protest movement, scheming Washington operators, a drug-addled producer of forged video exposes, corrupt politicians, selfish political donors, think-tank experts-for-hire, and a cynical cable news network.   As the young protagonist struggles to find his way though this colorfully described landscape, he discovers that the real villains of the story are much closer to home. They are those too passive to take responsibility for a malfunctioning political system: people like ... him.  And so our protagonist arrives at his own moment of decision – and the novel’s unexpected and hilarious conclusion.
