On Easter Sunday, I published my 5th book. If there is any one James Thomas Angelidis book to buy for yourself, this is it. In Approaching the Kingdom: An Anthology, the reader will find all my works in one place. This 512 page volume is the result of a 15 year journey. This process began after college when I was 22 with my search for truth in the so called “real world.” And, it includes my more recent letters and drawings. It is a comprehensive representation of my written efforts to save souls.
As taught in John 3:16, “For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life” (JTA, Young Ezekiel, 136).
My King is the Son of the Most High, yet he was stepped on like dirt. He suffered many things for me. The soldiers spat on him. How could they spit on my King? He lowered himself for me. Who am I? I am little and he is great. A devoted servant would lay down his life for his king, but my King laid down his life for his servants… They treated him less than a human being when in reality he was God. It makes no sense, but if you listen to his words, you will see he did it out of agape. He was disgraced, but that is why I glorify him (JTA, Young Ezekiel, 131).
Jesus knew what he was getting into and the suffering that was ahead of him. This makes his agape more compelling than if he did not know because most people, if they knew, would have run (JTA, Young Ezekiel, 128).
There are many leaders - both good and bad - in the world, but Jesus is the only Christ and Son of God. He is the strongest man ever for no one else can be crucified as he was and retain his love for God the way he did with patience and grace. He is our Savior, who saves our souls from hell, death and eternal suffering. It is a sublime mystery that God chose to humble himself to become man - for Jesus truly was God. And, a still deeper tragic glory that he died, so we could have life. He entered this world to teach and show us the meaning of agape and since his advent, the world has never been the same. Glory to thee, our God, glory to thee (JTA, Young Ezekiel, 126).
