{{answer infobox |Scripture Advocate Publishing believes that Scripture (the Bible) is the accurate and authoritative description of both the physical and spiritual aspects of life. It instructs us on how to have a relationship with our Creator. It informs us of what genuinely helps or harms life both now and eternally. It introduces the history of man kind. It describes the covenant relationships and priesthoods that keep this relation with the Eternal intact, with a special emphasis on the Savior.}}

'''''[[What Is Scripture Advocacy?]]''''' Being a Scripture Advocate means sharing the truth and the path to a close relationship with our Creator. It also means is going against the mainstream in religious, scientific, and societal standards ... because the acceptance of Scripture as an accurate guide to life and life eternal is now an extremely small minority view.

'''''[[Celebrating Salvation in the Covenant Festivals]]''''' The newest book release, featuring the work of our Savior, is available for download and viewing on this website.

== Seminar Format ==
The following outline of units, chapters, and articles are taken from the Encouraging Life Seminar as presented by [[Todd Elder]] and will lead to a majority of pages on this website.

== [[Risk of Destruction Unit]] ==
If Scripture is true, then there is a purpose to life, things that are beneficial and good which help life as well as wicked and evil things that harm life, and our soul is at risk.

*'''''[[Search for Meaning to Life Chapter]]''''' If scripture is true, then we an seek the answers to the great questions of life and there can be meaning to our actions.

*'''''[[Battle for Life and Death Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, then there is a war raging all around us and within us. Perhaps the greatest battle is between truth and falsehood as one leads to peace and life and the other to death and destruction.

*'''''[[Gambling with Eternity Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, then we are gambling and losing life when we follow any other religion, philosophy, or worldview.

If you believe this, you will have both the fear of death from sin ... and the peace from the promises of His merciful forgiveness that overcomes death.

== [[Reaching for Higher Ground Unit]] ==
If Scripture is true, then

*'''''[[Kingdom of Heaven Chapter]]'''''

*'''''[[Two Trees Chapter]]'''''

If you believe this,

== [[Role of Defending Life Unit]] ==
If Scripture is true, then

*'''''[[Understanding The War Chapter]]'''''

*'''''[[Knight Academy Chapter]]'''''

*'''''[[Path of the Righteous Warrior Chapter]]'''''

If you believe this,

== [[Relationship With the King Unit]] ==
If Scripture is true, then we can have an active and growing relationship with the Eternal rather than just a set of religious traditions. This comes by learning His Word, understanding what He has done, respecting His position, and honoring Him.

*'''''[[Scripture Strategy Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, then the Bible, as the word of Elohim, is the accurate and authoritative description of both the physical and spiritual aspects of life. We should make the effort to know and understand it in order to obey and worship properly rather than be deceived by the enemy through inaccurate doctrine, twisting of Scripture, or false prophets.

*'''''[[Honoring the Eternal Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, then there is nothing more powerful than an active relationship with the Eternal for it is He who is Creator, Lawgiver, and Redeemer and it is He who is worthy of our worship while the adversary is a pride driven fraud who promotes idolatry and fear to steal and take what does not belong to him.

*'''''[[Helmet of Salvation Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, then perhaps the most important and foundational truth is that of salvation; the availability of forgiveness of sin and the opportunity to be a child of Elohim in the Kingdom of Heaven throughout eternity which can motivate us to withstand anything the enemy can throw at us from this world.

If you believe this, then you can have the peace and security that comes with being loved and protected by the Eternal. It is a choice we make by humbling ourselves and submitting to Elohim's caring authority.

== [[Reality of the Kingdom of Heaven Unit]] ==
If Scripture is true, then the complex interaction of both the physical and spiritual aspects of life become foundational to understanding life, living life, and finding meaning to life; however, to truly live life to the fullest, we must avoid what is false and cling to what is true, shun the works of darkness and pursue the works of light, and enjoy the benefits of love while hating the evil that comes with selfishness and competition.

*'''''[[Base Camp of Original Creation Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, then there was a Creation Week and the 6,000 year history of this world and of man kind show the destruction due to sin as well as the necessity for a Savior; therefore, it is little wonder the enemy would falsely attack these concepts (in both religion and science) to cause believers to stumble or doubt the truth of the Bible.

*'''''[[Daily Duties in the Physical Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, then our physical health depends heavily on our environment, food, and activity which were designed for our benefit; therefore, it should not surprise us that virtual reality, artificial environments, fake food, and laziness will lead to an unhealthy life nor should it surprise us that greed and the desire for power will cause carelessness in regards to destroying the natural and created order of things.

*'''''[[Spiritual Special Forces Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, then understanding how the spiritual impacts the physical is one of the most profound and far reaching concepts within the Kingdom of Heaven expressed in angels and demons, blessings and cursings, and miracles and magic; therefore, false concepts of spirituality and the absolute denial of it's existence are major battle tactics of the enemy.

*'''''[[Belt of Truth Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, then truth by itself does not give you eternal life, but it will lead you to the Savior by discerning good and evil and by exposing sin and righteousness while falsehood will lead you away from His caring protection towards death, disease, misery, and fear.

This means that within that battle of good and evil, one of the main battlegrounds is truth and falsehood and that we should make the effort to take care of His creation rather than try to change it, improve it, or redefine it and thus risk destroying ourselves in the process.

== [[Responsibility In the Covenant Unit]] ==

If Scripture is true, then man kind has lost the close relationship that originally existed with Elohim and now faces death; however, through the covenants and priesthood, He lovingly offers a path back to life and close relationship which would be impossible for man to do on his own.

*'''''[[Man Kind's Marching Orders Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, then our Creator instructed man kind to serve Him be by caring for the Earth and to love each other; however, after the fall into darkness, man struggles with being disobedient, selfish, destructive, and acting as our own authority.

*'''''[[Covenant Command and Control Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, then the Eternal has offered a series of covenants to restore relationship with man kind; yet each person must choose to enter and follow these covenants to enjoy the promises and blessings that come within them.

*'''''[[Overcoming Defeat at Judgment Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, when man kind breaks the covenant law through sinful actions, there is a Heavenly High Priest and an atoning sacrifice that returns him to righteousness; but we must repent and seek that forgiveness through the Savior if we are to make it through judgment.

*'''''[[Shield of Faith Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, then our trust in the Almighty and His ways will not only provide us with peace, hope, joy, and love, but it will also protect us from the negative influences and harsh effects of a greedy world constantly pursuing pride, control, and the lusts of the flesh.

This means we have a choice to help or harm our relationship with our loving Heavenly Father, to receive blessing or cursing in this lifetime, and to obtain salvation or destruction for eternity.

== [[Righteousness in the Savior Unit]] ==
If Scripture is true, then forgiveness of sins and eternal life through the Savior is one of the greatest offerings available to all of mankind. This is needed because righteousness is the standard by which all things are measured in the Kingdom of heaven. This righteousness can only be attained through the forgiveness of sin offered through yashuah, the Savior.

*'''''[[Messiah the Ultimate Righteous Warrior Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, then the only way to defeat death and return to purity and eternal life is through humbling oneself, admitting one's sin, and accepting the substitutionary sacrifice and atonement offered through the Messiah.

*'''''[[Top Secret Prophecy Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, then then many prophecies, pictures, and foreshadow the eventual return of man kind unto a close and loving relationship with the Eternal as it was meant to be and free from the evil of this current age through a final judgment and the creation of the new Heavens and Earth.

*'''''[[Breastplate of Righteousness Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, then the logic and philosophies of this world, and any sense of morality or right and wrong they can produce, are far inferior and inadequate in their abilities to protect life compared to the righteousness, justice, and mercy of the Kingdom of Heaven.

This means if you ignore the spiritual aspects of life and the fallen nature of man kind, then you will not see the need for a Savior and all the work, effort, and struggles of your life will be wasted and come to nothing.

== [[Resisting Evil in the World Unit]] ==
If Scripture is true, then we have not only our own pride and lusts of the flesh to contend with, but we havean enemy who actively wants to deceive us regarding the truth of Scripture and the value of life, mislead us into doing evil, and cause every form of abomination, hate, and destruction of life possible.

*'''''[[Adversary and Accuser Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, then the Deceiver is not merely our enemy, but the leader of the demonic rebellion who, for purposes of his own self-indulgent shemes, tries to either make man kind follow himself or neglect the spiritual aspects of life altogether.

*'''''[[Occult Realm Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, then most of the people in the world are unknowingly pursuing their own selfish desires through the methods and rituals of the Kingdom of Darkness while a smaller number knowingly worship evil.

*'''''[[Religious Traditions Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, then one of the greatest battlegrounds is between true biblical worship and the many manmade traditions that try to replace the Eternal's ways, cause the Savior to appear weak, or lead a person away from the Kingdom of Light altogether.

*'''''[[Personal Battlegrounds Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, then our own personal temptations and weaknesses caused by selfishness, pride, and the flesh must be overcome, both in the physical and spiritual, through humility and an understanding of one's genuine place in life and in the Savior's kingdom.

*'''''[[Sword of the Spirit Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, then the words and wisdom of the Kingdom of Heaven will bring peace and healing to the soul while the pursuit of pleasure will bring an unsatisfying and harmful result to their life.

This means that life, on a personal level, must be vigilantly defended with discernment between righteousness and wickedness, between truth and falsehood, and resisting personal temptations while, on a global scale, all the fantasies and pride offered by the secular world should be ignored or silenced.

== [[Remembering Testimony Unit]] ==
If Scripture is true, then

*'''''[[Shoes of Peace Chapter]]'''''

*'''''[[Logic and Faith Chapter]]'''''

*'''''[[Desire for Truth Chapter]]'''''

*'''''[[Ancestry and Family Tree Chapter]]'''''

*'''''[[Friends and Coworkers Chapter]]'''''

If you believe this,

== [[Ready for Service Unit]] ==
If Scripture is true, then we are called not only to build up our own relationship with the Eternal, but to also help others start / build a relationship with Him.

*'''''[[Sharing Salvation Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, then sharing the Good News is one of the best ways to help people live life to the fullest. Surprisingly, it will also reveal the amount of corruption in the world and how much people fear the truth of consequences for their sin.

*'''''[[Helping the Poor Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, we are not only called to love our neighbor as ourselves, but specifically called to help the poor, the widow, and the orphan ... those who have significantly greater hurdles in taking care of life than most.

*'''''[[Persevering through Persecution Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, then we can expect to be in the minority when we support righteousness and fight wickedness. This can bring persecution in many forms including the loss of friends, slander, restrictions, oppression, and (at the extreme) death.

*'''''[[Mantle of Zeal Chapter]]''''' If Scripture is true, then ignoring and surrendering to evil is not an option because accepting evil will bring the consequences of evil just as fighting for truth will help bring the consequences of truth.

If you believe this, you will seek out where the Almighty wants you to help in this world and follow in that direction.

== [[Reviving the Soul Unit]] ==
If Scripture is true, then

*'''''[[Natanael Chapter]]'''''

*'''''[[Repent for the Kingdom Is Here Chapter]]'''''

*'''''[[Restoration of Innocence Chapter]]'''''

If you believe this,

== [[Reward of Life Unit]] ==
