The Lexicon Church:(also called "The Original Word Church", "Veritas" - meaning "the truth" in Latin)You probably think that "Lexicon" is a "mystical" thing, but it LITERALLY means: "of the original word"in Greek. Meaning "the original text". Although on the same track as "rhema", the word is that of the original text - not a translation of the original text. The Lexicon takes the Koine Greek, and puts the meaning next to it. Lexicon is literally the Greek word λεξικόν ("lexikon"): "of the original words". See below for more... but as you can see with our logo, it just means a beautiful sunrise/sunset: "reality" or "the truth", which came from the Latin: veritas". We thought about calling it "The Veritas" Church", but THAT sounds "Ivy League". We do NOT "make a sale" - or try to "convert" people .... "veritas" means TRUTH, ad we tell people THE TRUTH: Salvation is FREE, but IT COSTS YOU YOUR LIFE. It's DIFFICULT, and you need to change .... but it WILL be fulfilling. It's IMPOSSIBLE to believe in something you can't see - - air, fish in the ocean, atoms ... but you CHOOSE to accept it, that's _all you have to do_ ... like air, fish in the ocean, atoms.” - Phil Chapman, the author of this page, and the Pastor/Teacher/Rabbi of this Lexicon Church. So, at our Church, ANYONE (who has repented and accepted salvation) can preach - after all, the Greek word for "preach" actually means "to proclaim". ANYONE can proclaim, and the great commission instructs us to. EVERYONE is ordained - by The Canon ("The Bible"). See many (MANY) incorrect translations of the modern Bible - on my [mis]-Translations page. This is dedicated to Elohim ("God The Creator" [Abba/Petros/The Father/God]) - who gives us life, and Isho (Yeshua ["Jesus"], God's monogene ["son"]), who gives us eternal life... ![]() "Deus, amove a me daemonia vel mala a facie mea, et tu illos percuti!" (Latin - the earthly language of the Demons) "Elohim, haser kel shadim o ro'a menukachuti, vehaka otem" (Hebrew) "God, remove any demons or evil from my presence, and strike them!" (It's amazing how close Latin is - to Spanish. "Mala" (evil) is "mollo" in Spanish. "Deus" (God) - is "Deos" in Spanish. I have the phonetics posted at the bottom of this page...) So... We go by the ORIGINAL writings of the Canon, as well as the non-Canonized writings, and all writings that we deem "fit" - as did those who put together the Bible. We have discussions - at every meeting - and anyone can "chime in". We can "meet" via phone, video (whereby.com), or at any location that suits. I have sound system, music, and musical instruments, but ANYONE is welcomed to play - from Day 1, and... WE DO NOT TAKE A COLLECTION (offering). If you want to "give to God's work", you give whatever way YOU desire. We all work for FREE, and we give of our time and resources for FREE - just as the Discipled did. Normally the "3 'T's": Time (just volunteer!) / Talent (use your talent(s) whatever it/they are. / Treasure (your money/wealth/pay) For those who think we are "mystical", uh, NO - we actualy would be called "Christian", and "God-fearing" by today's standards, but we teach THE TRUTH (again, "veritas" in Latin, and also the slogan at Harvard. My Harvard sweatshirt reads "veritas", as all do.): How "Christian" also encompasses Catholicism, and although we respect all of the WOMEN of the times, we do NOT worship Mary - we worship GOD, and we respect Isho ("Jesus") for His ultimate sacrifice of death, and being the gateway to our salvation. But as He (Isho ["Jesus"]) said while on Earth: "You are NOT to worship ME - only El-ohim (God)." NOWHERE does it state - in "The Bible" (The Canon): that Jesus says "Worship me". YES, He said "follow me" - which actually translates to "shadow", not "follow" - like "an apprentice". Again, see my Translations page, andt in particular, my "worship" section. That "more" - from above: Remember: with "The Bible", we are reading - an English translation - - of... a Latin translation - of a Greek translation - of Aramaic speech. In the case of "Jesus", it's an English translation - - of... a Latin translation - of a Greek translation - of a Hebrew translation ("Yeshua") - of an Aramaic name! ("Isho") - spelled in Aramaic: Ιησούς. His name was "Isho" - pronounced "EE-shoe", and means "rescue", "deliver,” or “save.” In any language, His name means “Salvation.” At this Church, ![]() Elohim (God in Hebrew) Theo (God in Greek) Isho ("Jesus" in Aramaic - it was his actual birth name). "Jesus" literally means "hail Zeus" - which is taking God's name in vain! We do not say "His", since God is not a HE - God is an "entity", but majestically "the Creator". Yes, Isho was a "he", but God is "God". (Elohim or Theos) 2) We are genarally AGAINST the vaccine, but we welcome everyone. 3) We encourage watching CHRISTIAN movies, writing and performing OUR OWN music, open dialog and discussion, andt livingt more of a simple life. Think "Amish", but certainly not required - only encouraged. We DISCOURAGE ouija boards, card playing, watching movies, listening to pop music, and "keeping up with the Jones" 4) We prepare for the end times - warning against 15-minute cities, the NWO and EWF, and the enevitable Mark of The Beast. ![]() ![]() ![]() Greek: ἀληθείας "alētheias" truth -OR- αληθείᾳ "alētheia" truth Πραγματικότητα Pragmatikótita reality/truth “veritas" is also “reality” in Latin Latin: veritas truth - - - - Also remember / realize this: The original manuscripts / text / scripture / writings (whatever you want to call them) - DID NOT have chapters or verses - it was one long writing - not even sentence breaks. WE (the Translators) ADDED them. We do not use the KJV, or any other modern translation (most go off of that KJV) - we use THE ORIGINAL text, which EVERYONE should do [duuuuh!]. So, if you wish to be a part of our Church, send an e-mail, or phone 780-942-2795 We do NOT take any offering, but if anyone wants to donate their services/time, that's great!
