28 Father Seeks to Reveal Truth to All
A Father Seeks to Reveal
Truths to All
by Nicholas Ginex
Introduction:
This article has been extracted from the book,
Future of God Amen. As the father of four

about a subject that has been a curiosity of mine
since I was a little boy; who was God and where
did He come from? My curiosity prompted me
to attend Catholic, Methodists, Baptists,
Protestant, and Jewish houses of worship. After
serving a few years in the Army, I read books by
philosophers, religious scholars, and highly
respected Egyptologists. Late in life, that is,
upon retiring at the age of 67, I wrote my first
book titled, Legacy of a Father. My attempt was
