About the Book
Are you about your business or are you about the Fathers business, My Dear Reading Friend? It is not what you achieve in this world, in your flesh that really matters, it is what you achieve for God and His Kingdom that counts. What you do in the flesh is, of the flesh. What you do for God, is of the Spirit and is all Spiritual. Are you about the Fathers business, as Jesus was, as He walked upon the earth, in His fleshly ministry or are you just tip-toeing through life, working and doing, your own, will and things, of only your desires, as you walk, upon this earth? Have you gained a Spiritual picture, of Gods Will for you in life yet? Are you tip-toeing through life blindly and ignorantly, not really knowing what you were saved to do for God? Many of Gods Children, truly are walking through life aimlessly. Aimlessly, not being about our Fathers business at all and many have already lived and passed and are gone and never fulfilled Gods Will, as they traveled through life's journey, in their fleshly ministry that they were supposed, to be about our Fathers business. Many simply never learned to STOP... And allow Gods Holy Spirit, to teach them, Gods Will, in life that they may be about the Fathers business and fulfill Gods Will, as they or you, so journey through this life. Will you learn to STOP... In life and learn and become teachable, so that you Will walk through this life, with Spiritual sight and Spiritual understanding, as to what Gods Will is for you, as you pass through this life, in your flesh? STOP... In life to learn Gods Will, is the single one thing and the most important thing, in life, for you to ever grow to learn and come to know. We are all supposed to grow to know that we are to be about our Heavenly Fathers business, working and laboring, to win the lost for Jesus, pulling Souls out of a lake of fire, look at all the Souls that are dying lost, this is not being about our Fathers business. We must learn to STOP... And learn what Gods Will is, for us in life. Learning to become busy about our Fathers business, is all important and all Spiritual. Our fleshly minds must be renewed. STOP... Is a fresh and new idea that God has placed in my Spirit and written in my mind. God has placed these thoughts in me, several times and they Will not flea from me. Truly God does have a great importance, for this special book. I consider it a privilege, every time that God reveals and ministers something new and fresh unto me, from the Holy Spirit, my Spiritual teacher. Because I learn something new, concerning Gods Will and I get to be Anointed to write another book, for God, for all of His Dear Readers that want to learn more from God and learn new things of Gods Spirit. There are hearts desiring to learn Gods Will and wanting to learn all they can that God Will teach them. Someone Will have to take time to STOP... What you're doing, to read this book and to learn what is hidden in the pages of an Anointed book that God has ministered unto His Church, through and by a ministry gift that He has set in the Church, for your Spiritual education. To learn many things, through and by, ministry school books that God has Anointed and called, one of His ministers to write for Him. For your Spiritual education, to be taught many things that are Spiritual. For the purpose that God sets ministry gifts in the Church and that God has never done away with His ministry gifts, because of their great Spiritual importance, in learning many things that are Spiritual. Through preaching and teaching, the Gospel of Jesus Christ, because faith cometh by Hearing, by Hearing The Word of God. I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.

About the Author: My name is Pastor Luke L. Chapman. I haven't always been a preacher, quite the contrary. When I was a young teenager everyone always said: "Boy what a good kid Luke is. He is a wonderful young man." Because of a stepfather that had no love for me, my clothes were packed for me and placed on the front porch on Christmas morning. Arrangements were already made for a near friend to pick me up to take me to my real dad's home. This became a cycle unto me. I learned soon to take flight in life, realizing I'm on my own. I was kicked out of school for truancy, failure to want to go to school and to learn. This started a foundation for my life, for my ongoing future. My new friends taught me how to smoke, drink, and cuss and to tell lies. I graduated to smoking weed and using cocaine. I never drank or used cocaine on a regular basis. I just started on weekends or invited parties. I got married and had a Child when I was 21 years old. But, with a lifestyle of drinking, spending money in bars and not on bills or in my home, I soon went through a divorce. Does this sound familiar, like today's youths? At this time, now I'm remarried my wife and I are both cocaine addicts. My wife smoked weed? I sold weed and cocaine to supply our habits. My wife left me one day. I was arrested the same day and put in jail. In jail, I bowed my knees on the floor in my cell. I was the only one there that day. I called upon Jesus and was saved and sent to North Central Correctional Institution. I never thought anyone cared. But I was so wrong. What was meant for evil for me, God changed for the good. Prison became My Bible College. Prison was where God counseled me about my morals. God taught me about being a good husband, a good father unto my Children and how a preacher must live and act. I served six and a half years in prison to learn not do use drugs, not to walk through life aimlessly. I learned my lesson. God raised me up to be a preacher in prison. Prison was my lifesaver. Wow, what a statement one might say! The reason prison was my lifeline was I could have graduated to the other side of life... Six Feet Down. I almost did! I had a heart attack, just before I was sent to prison, from smoking crack cocaine. I almost died. Your Friend... The Harley Davidson Preacher Man Luke L. Chapman Gods Vision...
