John 12:24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone.

Beginning in 2008 the vision and bible school that God so graciously gave Wade Taylor beginning in 1968 came to an abrupt end, falling into the ground and dying.

We now wait for God to raise up and bring forth His seed of promise in another, that the vision fail not.

 The Open Book
Paul Caram

"And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words
are closed up and sealed till the time of the
end" Daniel 12:9.

Our introductory verse from Daniel plainly tells us that many things are to remain concealed until the end of the Church age, but in Revelation 22:10, the prophet says, "Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this Book; for the time is at hand." Daniel, and the book of Revelation, are beginning to open, as we are living in the time of the end.

Truly, we are a privileged people, for we are the generation that lives in the "time of the end," when these things will be unsealed. The majority of the things that are written in the Book of Revelation will be fulfilled in our lifetime. We will not only see them happen, we will actually fulfill many of these Scriptures.

"For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord,
that we which are alive and remain unto the coming
of the Lord ..." I Thess 4:15a.

This verse is written to those in the Church who will be alive at the time of the Lord's coming. There is a "present word" within the "written word" that is being opened to us, today.

"The eyes of your understanding being enlightened;
that you may know the hope of His calling" Eph 1:18.

The Lord longs to reveal Himself to us, in a very new and intimate way. After His resurrection, he gestured to His disciples, "handle me." On the road to Emmaus, He revealed to the two discouraged disciples "all things concerning Himself."

If Jesus opened the Scriptures to them, how much more will He open them to us, for we are living in the time of the end when the outworking of every vision is at hand.

It has not entered into the heart of man the great things which the Lord has prepared for them that love Him. With the "Book" being opened in these last days, we not only will have an understanding of things to come, but we will have a far greater understanding of the Lord Himself, for the Scriptures testify of Him.

"O Lord, open the book (to me) and loose the seals thereof that I might better know you, and become a part of that which you are doing in the earth. Amen."
