Evangelist Lenard Joe Adkins has compiled a comprehensive study on the subjects of Faith and the Holy Ghost. "Perfecting Your Faith" is a common sense book yet full of profound spiritual revelation designed to empower believers into applying the life-giving truth that Jesus came to give us. Brother Adkins clearly explains the differences between the carnal man and the spirit man, and why much of the Church has taken to operating in the same type of system that the world does. Faith for healing and everyday living is essential for Christians to grasp a hold of lest they live an unnecessarily ineffective existence. Brother Adkins expounds on why people tend to blame God for adverse situations and conditions and provides spiritual insight into how we can understand the daily trials and tribulations we experience without blaming God. He offers scriptural clarity into why receiving the Holy Ghost is so vital for the born-again believer and how the various evidences of such are displayed through the gifts of the Spirit. As you read this book, you will be challenged to see beyond tradition and complacency into a deeper vision of all the fullness of God. "Our churches and ministers have spent their lives crying out against sin and felt they were God's thundering prophets, warning men and women of the pitfalls of life. We've been so protective of our children and taught them from our Sunday School classes about all of the things that they should and should not do to keep from losing their little souls in hell. Ladies and gentlemen, the scriptures tell us that Jesus Christ came to this world that we might have LIFE (not gloom), and that we might have it more abundantly." Evangelist Adkins does a spectacular job of revealing the many facets that this LIFE entails.
