CHAPTER 5

SUM, ERGO SUM, ROGER!

I lay there in awe and wonderment! I immediately understood the WORD the LORD had spoken to me.

Latin: From former thoughts of a man, who after doubting the existence of every man from the beginning of time and questioning everything of God’s Creation had concluded in his own thinking: “I think; therefore, I am.”

I had been wondering how real my experience was. I had thought: Is this real? Or is this only a dream?

That was the point of life to which the philosopher had reasoned himself. The thinker’s conclusion was that man exists with certainty, because man can certainly think.

When Moses had encountered God in the burning bush that was not consumed, it did not make sense (to a created man). When Moses later asked God how to explain who God IS to Israel, this was God’s reply:

Exodus 3:14 And God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM.”

I knew (if I know anything at all) that some translations of the Bible read: “I AM THAT I AM,” in Hebrew literally, “hayah hayah.”

Yĕhovah ‘elohiym THE LORD GOD had spoken to me saying:

I AM, THEREFORE I AM, ROGER.

And for His MOST PERSONAL purpose, THE LORD GOD had addressed HIS NAME to me personally!
