About This Site

One of the things people criticise about Christianity is its contention that Jesus Christ is the only way to God.  That contention, of course, is contained in the very words of Christ himself: “Jesus answered: ‘I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life; no one ever comes to the Father except through me.’” (John 14:6, Positive Infinity New Testament).  People think that such a claim is arrogant, exclusivistic and snobbish.

It used to be, for those of us who happen to live in the United States, that exclusivism and snobbery were the kiss of death in an open and egalitarian society.  But times have changed.  Today we live in a society where the road to the top is well marked educationally and credentially, and becoming more so all of the time.  We even put into the highest office someone who can justifiably be characterised as an elitist snob.

However, for a Palm Beacher such as myself, Jesus’ claims of exclusivity were never a put-off.  In fact, in a place where exclusive clubs and other élite organisations (including churches like the one pictured here) were a natural part of the landscape, the thought of God himself proclaiming an eternal exclusive club was a major part of the appeal.  And having a very well-defined road to joining that club was a natural too.

But the best news of all was this: the membership of this club is open to all who will follow the Master, and he has already paid the dues.

While we wait to achieve this “club’s” highest reward–the place I call “Positive Infinity”–there’s much to be done, to look at and deal with in this life.  The purpose of this site–part blog, part static site–is to do all of these things from the perspective of one Christian who always seems to find himself viewing life and eternity in ways that no one else does.

Take a look at the columns on the left and right to see what’s here.

About this Site and Its Webmaster

This site was originally launched in August 1997 as “The Pentecostal Layman’s Page” on Geocities. It was moved in late 2002 due to the increasing difficulty of maintaining a proper web site there.  At that time it was renamed “Positive Infinity.” The title change is taken from our work My Lord and My God which has been on the site since 1998.

The blog portion of the site was first launched in April 2005; it became a Wordpress blog the following year.

In addition to growing up in Palm Beach (which is life experience enough,) the webmaster, Don C. Warrington, is an engineer by profession who spent much of his career in the heavy construction equipment business.  When that industry had its canful of him, he moved on to the Church of God Department of Laity Ministries, where he is Ministries Coordinator.  But this site is not an expression of that ministry for you Barry Lynn types (and you have stopped by in the past.)  He is also a member of the North Cleveland Church of God, but this site isn’t an expression of that either (and if they ever find out what’s here, they’ll agree with that.)  He lives in East Tennessee with his wife Judy.
