The Presence Powered Life - Paperback

by Carl B. Jenks (Author)

Discover more spiritual power than you ever imagined - in you! "The Presence Powered Life" takes Jesus at His word: "In that day you will know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you." [1] He literally does live in and through His disciples. Just as He walked out His life on earth totally dependent upon His Father, so He calls the disciple to live in total dependence upon Him - "Apart from Me you can do nothing."[2] He knows that in our humanity we are not capable of living a supernatural life on our own, so He has come to release it in us! Because this is true, how should it affect the way I live, the church operates, and the world around us? We discover Christ's desire to express His life through us so that our own lives are totally transformed and so that the world around us can experience Jesus like never before. After generations of teaching that for believers to be conformed to the image of Christ is a work from the outside in, we are recovering the freeing truth that the Life of the very Son of God is already within, just waiting for us to yield to Him. How simple, yet how powerful this is! Though this truth was taught and lived out in the New Testament, it has been largely obscured for centuries. But now God is restoring this blessed reality to empower the church of the 3rd Millennium. It is a rare and wonderful thing to call a book "cutting-edge." However, Apostle Carl Jenks has given the Church just that...a truly cutting edge work. It is both inspirational and revelational.
