The name and vision of Realistic Imaginations began in the year 2000 in Carbondale, Illinois. The name simply means: "to bring those things that are a moment of inspiration, into functional and practical elements that benefit people." Our website continues to shift and evolve on a consistent basis to intrigue the senses. We continue to build our services into a system that delivers great work, fair pricing, and honest customer service. The structure of our company is not to rob people or seek a status that evolves around what you pay. We would rather be more consciously aware to become a team that can one day reflect we helped someone reach THEIR goal. To do so takes honesty as a service and as people as well. We are a Christian based service and fundamentally we choose to give our best to testify what we are about and who we represent.

Creativity is creating something from something
God, since the beginning, has only been able to create something from nothing.

God's plan for salvation:

--- Many people in their trivial knowledge of God and seeking for God have devised many different religions and denominations in their worship to what they believe about God. For the most part there is nothing wrong with that. It is true that many people who are living, are dead, and shall live will continue on in the search for God. His divine plan and our significance in his plan. It's not an easy search to find God ( Matt 7:14) and when still there are layers upon layers of revelation that God only gives. The revelation that gives us access to the true nature of his Character in the person of Jesus Christ.  Many people since the birth of time have had their interpretations of what and to whom God is. What is your reading of God? 
Here are some simple findings in the bible that may help your understanding.

1) God is a spirit - (John 4:24)
2) He is a Father - (John 13:3)
3) Worship to him must be in Spirit and in truth (John 4:24)
4) He (God) sent his son Jesus to save the world : (John 3:16)
5) He and Jesus were both one: (John 17:21)
6) He Loves you
7) He wants you to come home

When the Earth was flooded by God and Noah escaped there is a famous story of the Tower of Babel. Here man themselves tried to reach God in the heavens by forming a tower. Then God looked upon them and changed all of their languages that they could not communicate with each other. (Gen 11)

Now man had another aspect of God. He was creator of man. He had power over the earth and he also had the power to cause correction to man when they were displeasing to him. God created Adam and Eve and placed them within a Garden. Adam and Eve chose to disobey God's commands and thus allowed sin to enter the world. Within as much they, by their disobedience,  cursed all of mankind. (Gen 3) Since man had fallen in the Garden and God banished them. All of mankind has been in the search to be restored by God into their rightful place. As time continued there were many patriarchs of faith in Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in which they demonstrated the acts and the power of God through their lives. Then God sent a deliverer in the man called Moses who then established the Mosiac Law based upon the ten commandments. God sent prophets who declared the thoughts and the expressions of God to his people. To whom salvation was only by the Jews before the declared Messiah would come and bring salvation.

Unto the birth of Jesus Christ, Immanuel, to whom was born the King of Jews and would lead all of mankind into restoration of God. Jesus Christ reconciled the sins of man before the face of God by his life and death. It was then God through Jesus Christ life, raised him from the dead and exalted him to the right hand of the throne. Basing the judgment of the whole world upon the government of his Son. There began the birth of the church from the disciples who walked with Jesus and recieved the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. It was during Pentecost, that the cloven tongues of fire fell upon the men and women in the upper room and they recieved power to be a witness. A witness of the Kingdom of God and the glory that God gave unto his son Jesus Christ. It was in this manner, that Jesus both opened the door for salvation not only to come to the Jews but for salvation to also be for the Gentiles (Those who were not Jews.) It was in this: that both men and women by the circumcision of their hearts, their repentance to this world, and their belief upon Jesus Christ. Would recieve salvation unto everlasting life and a true relationship with God.
Leaving us and the entire world's life to rest upon this condition.

That you believe upon Jesus Christ to whom God sent andbe saved.

Jesus says,"I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father but by me." (John 14:6)That we, being imperfect and born of sin, have an advocate for us within our lives in the testimony of Jesus to redeem us from death. In our lives and they way that we live according to the flesh and it's lusts there is no way to please God. However, it is by our renouncing of this world and pressing toward the mark set by Jesus that we are cleansed from this world by our faith.

What does this mean for someone like me and you?

The bible says,"That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved."For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." (Romans 10:9-10)
Many of us glorify so many people in our accomplishments in life. We give credit to sports heroes for our life accomplishments, we glorify diet plans, glorify financial strategies, glorify wealth. All of them give credit to success yet none can save you from a dying world. Rather, "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." (Romans 10:13) What is his name, his name is  "Jesus."Believe unto righteousness and confession unto salvation.
Look at this list of things that Jesus states about the defilements of man's heart.
Jesus says,"And he saith unto them, Are ye so without understanding also? Do ye not perceive, that whatsoever thing from without entereth into the man, it cannot defile him; Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught, purging all meats? And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man. For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness: All these evil things come from within, and defile the man (Mar 7:18-23)

Did you know you were defiled within?
You see in our eyes without a testor and right or wrong we are justified either way. Rather, when we look at the requirements upon salvation set by Jesus we are challenged. Challenged to deny some things and challenged to believe in the power of denial. By this we are tested in our authenticity of our faith in what we believe. Do you really believe Jesus can save you? Then you will come to find that taking upon his yoke to salvation; the only way to salvation. Jesus way, the true way, is the most fulfilling and gratifying life to ever live.

Jesus stated in Luke 4:18-19

"The Spirit of the Lord is on me,
because he has anointed me
to preach good news to the poor.
He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners
and recovery of sight for the blind,
to release the oppressed,
to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor."

The gospel, being written on our hearts, has given us an ability to portray visual pictures of metaphors, symbols, and unctions of how God speaks to us daily. It is as our duty to deliver through our giftings, talents, and life fruit that bears the plantings of the Lord. His name is Jesus Christ, because art can be both a verbal and non-verbal way of communicating. We have just poured out in all manners of traditional and modern digital means of what God has been speaking through his Word, inspirations, visions, and dreams.

Jesus, was a man of many word pictures and metaphors thus was a way of teaching exactly what he meant and in a simple way they could receive. They were called parables. The gospel of Jesus Christ is to re-establish man back with a rightful relationship with God. Jesus himself said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." (John 14:16)

We believe that salvation comes by believing in Jesus Christ. Believing in the inspiration of the Holy Scriptures. Believing that God sent his son in the flesh and that God gave us a testimony wherewith we may be saved. The testimony of Jesus Christ is not just about a prophet, a teacher, or a man. The Testimony of Jesus is about the love of God and the call for all men to repent.

We love people.

We love God and the truth and we hope that is the main message of reason of our diligence in this area and service. The proceeds of the funds here help us maintain with software to develop our website's and the biblical artwork. We also believe that proceeds from our art should be and is donated to our local church for benevolent and charitable reasons.
I thank you all who takes a hold of what we express from our hearts and wish the best in all your future endeavors.
