Necessary Oneness Volume I

NECESSARY ONENESS presents Christianity as the practical theology that it is and as it has been intended. Both Volumes are Bible-based, inspirational books that, in their very designs, reveal uniqueness unparalleled to any other because they have been crafted with precision that relates form and content. Volume I is CHILDREN OF GOD; Volume II, GOD WITH US. Both books are short: Volume I is 168 pages, and Volume II is even shorter-88 pages. The premiere editions of both Volumes of NECESSARY ONENESS are collector's items; both have an autograph section that can be presented at book signings for Sister Randolph's signature. (Those presenting the book for such signings will receive a special bookmark.)

Readers are hungry for spiritual knowledge, and many have sought such in Eastern religions without realizing that Christianity has always been an exceptionally spiritual religion that endues us with spiritual power. Because of Sister Randolph's experiences as educator; her study of at least ten different churches; her being a thinker with established literary criticism skills; her knowledge of communication theory and practice; her knowledge of rhetorical theory and practice; and especially because of Holy Spirit direction, these unique Volumes can be easily read and understood. The Bible is the most widely read book in the world, but Sister Randolph would add that it is perhaps the most widely read, but misunderstood, book in the world.

Seven chapters comprise each of the Volumes, and seven is the number of completion. Each volume has a prologue and epilogue, containing excerpts from the Bible, indicating God as alpha and omega, the beginning and the ending (Revelation to John 1:8 and 11; 21:6-7; 22:12-13; Isaiah 41:4; 44:6; and 48:12). In addition, all of the seven chapters begin with the letter C; C represents the anointed one-Christ. Volume I gives the meaning of 3:16 and examines the presentment of oneness in the Bible. Each of the 3:16 verses of the New Testament is presented and explained in Volume II, and a section called activation at the end engages readers in aspects of Christianity that help edify, enlighten, and empower via the Holy Spirit. The preface gives a poem with biblical references following, focusing on important aspects of each Volume. Each chapter of Volume I ends with the same sequence: PRAISE THE LORD, FORGIVE, ASK FOR FORGIVENESS; AUDIBLY PRAY . . . ; AWAIT GOD'S RESPONSE. However, Volume II begins with prayer: AUDIBLY PRAY FOR THE SPIRIT OF WISDOM AND REVELATION IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF HIM.

The text is written in third person plural (using pronouns we, us, our, etc.) that focus on unity of THE FAMILY OF GOD. Being Bible-based, the Volumes cite references to prove presented points. Volume I should be read before Volume II as it gives background information, such as the dimensions that give insight into, for example, the transcendent dimension that facilitates understanding of the co-existence of the spiritual and natural.

The Volumes can be considered both trade and academic texts because they are scholarly works. They discuss the sacred and secular, presenting allusion and examples to facilitate understanding. Volume I presents several pages that compare SPIRITUAL/BIBLICAL with NATURAL/DISCOVERIES. Furthermore, the claim of German philosopher Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (1844-1900) that God is dead-which is widely acclaimed in academia-is refuted. After the epilogue, each Volume ends with a significant two-page spread, pinpointing a serious message. Finally, the last page of each Volume announces Sister Randolph's next publication-KNOWING KNOWING: MANIFESTIONS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.

Finally, the logo,* a unique creation of the author, symbolizes Christian oneness. Together, the two Volumes of Necessary Oneness provide a treasury of knowledge, holding valuable investments that have already been provided Christians, who are now joint-heirs with Christ.
