An incredible and Amazing Life Changing Book!
Format: Paperback
This book has changed my life! Extremely in depth and thorough research by the author, yet his writing style is very enjoyable to read. He presents the material to the reader so that it can be enjoyed and understood. He has great knowledge of the Greek language and has translated many versus of scripture throughout the bible to bring out a better meaning of those scriptures. Rick Renner has brought up points throughout the book that has changed my way of thinking; starting with the Bible itself, and how it can change you, Prayer, the Holy Spirit, Worship, Ablaze for Souls, Generosity, Holiness, Humility, Authority of the Believer, and Fear of the Lord. I especially appreciate his teaching on being ablaze for souls, where he discussed the reality of Hell, and how we should all be out there witnessing to those who are lost. Every chapter I read, has stirred an awakening in me, and this book has been like a 'wake up call' to my life and the way I have been living. For every Christian out there, this a 'must need to read' book, and I highly recommend it.
