Alvin Mitchell is and has been a long haul trucker for most of the last 20 years. He was a student Grand Canyon College, in Phoenix, AZ, until 1989. There he majored in Bible. He foresaw himself serving God from the pulpit, some day.
A fervent, Bible believing Christian as well, his major writing achievements include, ‘The Servant: His Gospel at a Glance’, ‘The Morphing of God: Quantum Physics and the Birth of Jesus Christ’. He also hopes to have more published as ebooks in the near future. Titles include, ‘Mahmoud’s Nightmare’ (a commentary on Ezekiel 38 & 39; details the rise of a small, beleaguered people to global prominence and power), ‘Demystifying God’s Apocalypse’ (commentary on the Book of the Revelation). His apologetics studies include: ‘The Bible, the Bone Yards, and the Genesis Flood’, ‘A Bible Scoffer’s Delight’, ‘Gays, God, and Good, Clean Sex’. His numerous articles include Jesus was a Rich Man, The Genealogy of Jesus Christ, and The Holy Trinity.
Alvin has distinguished himself as an enthusiastic writer, ready to tackle any topic, in honor of his God, His word and his Savior. He is a firm believer that—to be credible, viable witnesses for Christ, in today’s cultural environment—all Christians must be formally educated far beyond the religion of “me-ism” that so permeates the thinking of our local church congregations (in the name of Jesus Christ!). “You cannot live, or, stand for, what you do not know,” he says. His prayer is that multitudes will be motivated, by his work, to heed the call, taking up the cross of Christ daily. His conviction is that seekers, who cannot and will never find the object of their affections or theological aspirations through traditional means, will be bountifully blessed by his writing.
As a Christian, a lover of “God”, and of His word the Bible for over 35 years, his view of himself as one having any ‘writer’s’ potential took shape only in more recent times. His debut grew out of a jotting down of interesting notes and compelling ideas. These might be solid building blocks upon which to craft sermons in the future, he thought. After pondering the tenor and bent of some of those initial notes, and, after previewing books and online materials he figured would be useful as resources for research, Alvin was convinced that he could, indeed, write…a book, even! “My understanding and grasp of the issues relating to biblical theology”, he said within himself, somewhat astonished, “is as good or better, or, at least as much viable as that of some of these ministers (some of them, having advanced degrees, and, the most respected names in ministry, at this hour). For continuing encouragement and motivation, His favorite and most inspiring Teacher—Prof. Holy Spirit of God—frequently refreshes his mind with the account of the lowly, formally uneducated Jesus, standing before that erudite, otherwise arrogant lawyer in Luke’s gospel, chap. 10, as well as the overly venerated scribes and feared Pharisees throughout the gospels. Often leaving them baffled and confused, his Savior and prime Mentor outshined them all; He outclassed them by His uncanny logic, by His wit, and by His tenacious knowledge of the word and will of His Father.).”
This, perhaps, humblest of beginnings was rooted primarily in thoughts surrounding the creation account in Genesis, chap.s 1 & 2. It has since given way to occasions to write on a wide variety of Bible related topics.
Alvin’s plan is to publish most of his work as part of a study series he calls “God’s Choreography of the End-times”. Given that the body of this study is rooted largely in Bible prophecy and, insofar as John says in the Revelation that Jesus is the focus of all Bible prophecy, the series will include works on Jesus Christ, Bible apologetics and his comprehensive commentary on the Book of the Revelation (this commentary is an attempt to fully integrate all of the other Old and New Testament prophecies having to do with eschatology, showing how and where they fit into God’s overall scheme, of end-times things). Unlike traditional evangelical/fundamentalist rule and methods of interpretations, where what is not understood is simply ignored or discarded—thus, so much by means of which God seeks to be lifted up and glorified in the eyes of unbelieving men is gutted—this hard-hitting series leaves no stone unturned. He also has plans for a publication of a study series of commentaries on the individual themes of the Book of the Revelation, aimed primarily at those who may find the 450 (plus) pages of the full commentary too much to attempt to digest at once. The titles of those publications will be: The Church of the End-times (Rev. 1-3), The Snatch (Rev. 4-5), The Battle of Armageddon (Rev. 6-12, 14-16, 19), The Beast & The Great Whore (Rev. 13 & 17), America in Bible Prophecy (Babylon the Great; Rev. 18), and,The Two Kingdoms (Rev. 20-22).
