Welcome to the Website of First Love Ministry....

First Love Ministry is the spiritual teaching arm of Anglemar Fellowship—an expression of prophetic Christian faith committed to spreading the Divine Authority of Worship, Prophetic Instruction and Christian Life Alternatives—with a special heart toward the New England and Canadian Maritime regions of North America. (For more on Anglemar Fellowship, please click here.)


Our highest desire is to see every Christian believer perfected in First Love for the Lord Jesus Christ. We believe that if First Love for the Lord can be established and maintained at the center of life, all else will finally fall into proper perspective. We're especially dedicated to an understanding of Divine Love that represents the complete nature of God as revealed through the entirety of the Christian Scriptures.


At this website you'll uncover a library of prophetic articles sprouting from one man's 35 year search for fresh, workable, unchanging truth as we enter the third millennium—truth to help us fulfill our personal destiny and obtain our full inheritance in Christ. The articles yearn to offer a greater, re-centered grasp of God's nature and purposes for boosting us toward rendezvous with Immortality by the transforming power of our Living Lord Jesus Christ.


In pressing for greater understanding, First Love Ministry strives to build on a comprehensive scriptural foundation together with all scripturally-supportable revelation brought to expression in the last 500 years of church restoration. As this site is developed, you will find posted here writings by other past and contemporary prophetic writers, as well as links to websites whose witness to truth is similar to my own.


Key Themes


Some of the key burdens and recurring themes of this ministry include:

  1. Reconciling the natures of God's Will and His Passion

  2. Growing into both the convictional and experiential Love of God

  3. Relating the Spirit's anointings to His ministry of sanctification

  4. Differentiating between legalism and discipline-under-grace

  5. Understanding our position between eternity and time

  6. Purifying our personal identity as God's children in the world

  7. Integrating our call to worship with our call to action

  8. Discovering the keys of personal destiny fulfillment in Christ

  9. Resolving the meaning of "the kingdom" in light of these end times

  10. Contesting false revelational teachings based on partial views of God

  11. Discerning the modes, seasons, progressions and limits of spiritual truth

  12. Building bridges to immortality



The teachings presented at this site reveal an interlocking web of truth that echoes with these and other themes. This interlock is not planned, but testifies to the wholeness of what the Lord is saying under the Spirit's direction. If you hunger and thirst to better know God over the issues of such themes, THIS WEBSITE IS FOR YOU.


Sharing a Discovery in the Truth


As I impart here from our own well of life, I'm mindful that our discovery of the Lord's fullness remains unfinished. Though this teaching represents many years of careful waiting and tested conviction under the Spirit's guidance, we can't claim absolute infallibility of understanding. As Paul says, "We know in part." This is especially so as we near the time when eternal reality swallows up temporal knowledge. So I desire to keep a flexible, teachable spirit in my approach to truth.


Nevertheless, to the degree we have received solid foundational conviction, I contend straightforwardly and unapologetically for what has been committed to us. Believing the Scriptures to be God's unalterable reference point for knowing the truth in Christ, we particularly reject all "revelatory teaching" that trashes the plain meaning and intent of the first apostles, that disregards the presiding spirit, context and direction of the Scriptures as a whole, or that tampers with orthodoxy pertaining to the person of Christ and nature of the Godhead as settled by the councils of the early church.


In light of this, I trust that our true spirit will be manifest to you. As well, we evaluate carefully the spirit behind all who dialogue with us, seeking to discern between the earnest fellow-learner and the prejudiced debater. My covenant with the reader is to be as helpful as possible in uncovering and understanding together all the truth necessary for completing our journey to physical eternal life through perfected love.


The teachings at this website are not intended for all people at all times, but for those whose hearts are readied by the Spirit of God to receive them. I don't engage in slander, debate or other "strife about words to no profit." I do enter into selective discussion and cross-revelational comparison with earnest seekers of truth as the Lord allows.


As you turn to these writings then, may you be blessed, strengthened and, where need be, challenged to change direction in thinking so that you may stand fully confirmed and approved by the Lord at the Last Day.


Many Blessings in Christ!
