About Lawrention

Greetings — my name is Larry Humphries and am the author of Lawrention.ca. I am a born-again Christian who grew up in St. Thomas, Ontario, Canada.

Being technically minded, I have a strong background in electrical and industrial controls. Experience-wise, I have worked as a construction electrician, maintenance electrician, electrical designer, and PLC (industrial) programmer. Industry-wise, I have spent a good number of years working in automotive, petrochemical, and food processing plants. A good portion of my time was spent in engineering departments developing schematics and P&IDs (process and instrumentation diagrams).

My beliefs are based upon the fact that Jesus Christ is the true son of God, was crucified, and rose three days later. He did this for all peoples on earth, not a select few. 

As I read through the book of Genesis, I see that while Adam and Eve were alive — there was no mention of religion whatsoever. All they had to do was obey one law, which was not to eat of the tree of good-and-evil. It seems to me that it was God's intent from the very beginning to have a relationship with us; not religion.

Once I began to understand the will of God (through my own relationship with Jesus) much of the underlying anxiety or even ill-will which I held towards any specific religion — didn't seem to be that important any longer. I like the way that our Pastor (of that time) described the multitude of religions. He said something to the effect that it's similar to how people organize the furniture within their house, as everyone does it differently. 

I find that science within the Bible is quite intriguing. Especially how our Earth came to be. My interests often gravitate towards the sciences and technical aspects, regardless of the topic-at-hand.

Knowledge from the Lord 

If you've spent a bit of time perusing this site, you realize its subject matter is quite diverse and often obscure to say the least. Its subject-matter ranges from the prophetic-book of Daniel to completely-new concepts concerning biology, particle physics, and cosmology. Although I have interests in all of these fields, I am certainly no expert. If it wasn't for the wisdom granted from God himself, most of this subject-matter would be flimsy at best.

Admittedly, although I've thought it would be great if God would merely download a bucket-full of knowledge into my brain in order to save a considerable amount of work — it just doesn't happen that way. What I typically receive from the Lord is a series of dreams where one dream builds upon another. Typically, these dreams point me in a certain direction for further study. So, although a certain topic can be a behemoth in size and quite intimidating — God basically tells me to ignore the rest for now and look directly here.

Moreover, if I'm paying attention (as I'm often not) God will often give me clues and encouragement throughout the day. Especially while reading the Bible, as nuggets of knowledge can be garnered through the Spirit which would otherwise not have been understood.

I would like to leave you with a few promises from God which should lift your spirits in these challenging times. These words are from the Bible's New International Version (NIV). If you wish to read a certain perspective on the various versions of the bible, you can see them here.
