The author has
employed a style that is neither scholarly (designed for high end scholastic
journals and
unintelligible to many) nor chatty and journalistic (styles used in novels and
newspapers).
Instead, he prefers one that straddles both areas.
Moreover, he also prefers to write succinctly rather than in a verbose manner.
Life is too short to write
20,000 words when the same message could expressed in 5,000. This will lessen
the time needed by the
already time-consumed reader.
In addition, almost everything he writes is from a new perspective, building
upon the Church of God
teachings – not undoing them. In other words, he prefers to value add to them
with new research and
thinking.
If a subject has already been written and researched, he prefers to avoid
duplicating efforts, even if
there might be some differences of opinion between him and the research, booklet
or book. It is only if
he can add value to the subject that he ventures into the particular area and
writes on it.
For, what is the
benefit of going over old ground that has already been explored? It may be
self-serving and showing off. But adds nothing to our body of knowledge. Our
corpus of knowledge must be expanded upon with more and more proofs, not
rehashing someone else's writings. Today's technology makes this much too easy -
it often leads to cheating and forms of plagiarism.
But real research
comes from pouring through libraries; analysis; critique; examining all points
of view; knowing one's subject; cross-referencing; debating with others;
contacting organisations and people for further insights/information etc. Such
results in quality research and depth. This takes time - the misuse of modern
technology bypasses this and leads to very shallow outcomes. There is no excuse
for laziness. But today's
generation does not seem to be interested in quality.
