If you want to speed-read the site
perhaps don’t bother watching (all) the YouTube videos.
However, when reading A better site than this one,
the YouTube videos are usually important.

Much reading of the pale webpages
could strain your eyes
(like white Wikipedia pages).
So you may want to turn
your screen’s brightness & contrast down
to match the brightness & contrast of
the décor etc surrounding/behind your screen.

I designed this site
to be read on a large screen PC
rather than on a smartphone or laptop.
I did this because this site contains:
some long sequences of logic,
some long lists of points,
some concepts that are spread
out
over several webpages.
And these are best
viewed
in several, large, browser windows.

COMPREHENSION
|
|
In this site, to aid comprehension,
each new concept is built on previous concepts:
Hence, so that you don’t lose track,
this site’s webpages are best
read
in the order they’re presented.
Likewise, if you use links that go to other
sites,
or to other parts of this site,
try to keep those visits brief
so that you don’t lose track.
|
|
Some parts of this
site are mere common knowledge.
But they are there because:
o I’ve tried to make this site
as comprehensive as I can.
And sometimes that means
including what’s commonly
known.
o Sometimes, a piece of mere common knowledge
is a step
in a long train of thought.

|
Some of my statements have no explanation.
But, hopefully, like me, you’ll think:
“That statement doesn’t need an
explanation,
it’s obvious.”
|
|
The content of this
site varies from the abstract
to the simple & straightforward.
So, for the sake of
communication,
I vary the grammatical style.

Two general tips for
reading any Bible are:
Who exactly is being addressed?
You? Gentiles?
Jews? Jews & gentiles?
What is the context of the
verse(s)?
Does the context affect the
meaning of the verse?
To these two tips I add:
Is Jesus speaking to a large crowd?
If so, are they friends, or
enemies,
or a mixture of both?
Does such a composition of the
crowd change
as Jesus continues to speak?
The Bible text rarely tells you
such things.
But that doesn’t stop you from
having a go
at inferring it.
Most Christians assume
that
those who cried “Hosanna”
when
Jesus entered Jerusalem
were the same people
who
later cried “Crucify”
shortly
before his crucifixion.
But that’s an assumption,
and,
in the light of today’s world
of
protests and subsequent counter-protests,
an improbable one.

TEXT COLOURS
|
|
On webpages with a dark
colour background
(i.e. dark blue, dark mauve,
dark red, dark green, backgrounds):
|
|
white text . . . . . is normal text,
|
|
pale green text . . is to be repeated later,
|
|
pale blue text . . . is repeated from earlier,
|
|
[pink text] .
. . . .
|
is my own thoughts & comments.

On webpages with a pale colour background:
|
|
black text . . . . . . is normal text,
|
|
dull green text . . is to be repeated
later,
|
|
blue
text . . . . . . . is repeated from earlier,
|
|
brown text . . . . .
|
is inspired by,
or literally is (though not word for word),
Andrew Wommack’s material.
Where brown text is
repeated
I colour only the first word or few letters
in dull green,
or in blue if it’s the copy.

NAVIGATION
|
|
Link colours:
red/pink: these are internal links,
that go elsewhere in this site
dark/pale blue:
these are external links,
that go to other sites.
|
|
If you ever want the links that you’ve used
to revert back to their original colours
then delete your (recent) internet history.
|
.
|
|
I made some internal links not
open up a new tab.
(For example: the links at the very foot of each webpage
that lead to the next webpage.)
|
|
But most internal
links
do open a new tab, to the right.
(My intention is that the new tab
is only a brief digression
from the narrative you were on.)
If you leave the right tab open
it will continue to function that
way.
If you then:
o narrow the whole window,
o move the whole window to the left of the
screen,
o drag the right tab off of the window,
making it two windows,
then you’ll find that:
o the two windows ‘remember’
that they were once
joined together,
and so will continue to
function that way.
|
|
If
you start off
by
opening two windows
of the same brand of browser (e.g.
Chrome)
Use
the desktop Chrome icon.
Using the Chrome icon at
the bottom of your display won’t do
the following.
then
move the two windows apart
then
make each window a quarter the
width of the display
then
drag off the extra tabs
you’ll have two pairs of linked windows.
