The Dreams Of The Bible
Chapters from my latest book, How God Interprets Dreams.
11. How Jesus Interprets Dreams
The method Jesus used to interpret The Parable Of The Sower can be called The Symbol Replacement Method. In Mark, Jesus replaced the symbols in the parable with parallel images that unlocked the true meaning of the parable. So instead of the parable being a story about a farmer planting seed and facing difficulties it becomes a revelation of the process that occurs when a preacher or a prophet speaks the word of God.
10. Dreams, Night Visions And Events Covered
In this book I explore all the fifty-five dreams of the Bible. I also look at Jacob wrestling with God and note Elihu’s talk on dreams to Job. I also examine the three important visionary events surrounding the gentiles coming into God’s Kingdom at Cornelius’s house and finish by inspecting five apocryphal dreams found in some Christian Bibles. The main focus is always on God’s plans and purpose for His dreams, visions and events.
9. Four Kinds of Bibles Dreams
The four kinds of dreams mentioned in Scripture are God’s Dreams, Satan’s Dreams, False Dreams and Natural Dreams.
8. Definition Of A Dream
On one level, it’s really simple to tell the difference between a dream and a vision. A dream occurs when you are asleep and a vision occurs when you are wide-awake. Yet on another level it’s not simple at all.
7. The Danger Of Individualism
If you read and understand this book you’ll know more than 99.999% of all Christians and all mankind about God’s Bible dreams but please remember the main purpose is not to make you wiser and smarter so you can live a more self-centered life.
6. God’s Eternal Purpose For Dreams
All Bible dreams concern Jesus in one way or another and the three main characters are always God, Satan and the dreamer. There are only three types of spiritual beings and three sources of spiritual activity.
5. Dream Interpretation Is God’s Business
God’s dreams are never just sent so the dreamer might discover their destiny and feel good about themselves. God’s dreams are all about Sovereign Almighty God working out His Own eternal plans and purpose and the created angel Satan failing to stop Him.
4. How To Use This Book
This main body of this work consists of an in-depth examination of every dream in the Bible, plus five dreams from the Apocrypha. It’s fascinating how these many disparate dreams all manage to serve the exact same purpose.
3. My Dream Qualifications
I’ve had plenty of dreams like Abraham, Abimelek, Joseph, Jacob, Laban, Pharaoh, Balaam, the Midianite soldier, Samuel, Nathan, Solomon, Eliphaz, Job, Nebuchadnezzar, Daniel, Zechariah, St Joseph, the Magi and Pilate’s wife
2. Warm Milk and Sleepy Saints
Most Christian dream books contain little or no new revelation. It often tastes like old warmed up milk with a few cookies to sweeten things up.
1. God Gives The Interpretation
All history is a record of Sovereign Almighty God fulfilling His eternal plans and purpose and the created angel Satan failing to stop Him. The key word is purpose, not purposes, and that purpose is Jesus Christ.
No Short Cuts - Only God Knows The Correct Interpretation
Just reading a diet book won’t help you lose weight. If you’re a serious Christian dream interpreter and you want to know what dreams from God actually look like, then you have to read and study all the dreams in the Bible. There’s no other way!
