Bone of His Bone: [Paperback]

F. J. Huegel (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: September 1, 1997

The book you see on your screen is one of the great Christian classics of the twentieth century. If you will look at the lives of men and women whom God has profoundly transformed throughout history, you will discover that God always uses the same truths. It is these very truths which Huegel presents in this book. Bone of His Bone has deeply affected the lives of tens of thousands of Christians in the twentieth century. Huegel covers material here that has been neglected in today's Christian community. How often do we hear the message of oneness with the Lord Jesus Christ? How often do we hear the message of the cross as it works in the Christian's life? Huegel points us to a life that is participation in Christ rather than imitation of Christ. He reveals to us that the cross and Christian growth are inseparable. Bone of His Bone, like so many great books, has virtually disappeared from Christian literature because the language became archaic to today's readers. It is the privilege of SeedSowers Publishing House to present this edited and modernized version of a great piece of Christian literature, making the paramount message of Huegel's book once more available to today's Christian audience.

5.0 out of 5 stars Only in Christ Can We Have Victory!, October 6, 2003

This review is from: Bone of His Bone (Paperback)

Bone of His Bone focuses on the great spiritual battle that takes place when a Christian takes seriously the authority in Christ.

Among the important points Huegel cover includes:

1. Instead of imitating Christ, we are to let Christ live His life through us in His power.
2. God must have our consent before He will work in our lives.
3. Being alone with God is worth much more than constantly being around others.
4. The amount of the divine life we experience depends on how much we let Jesus have His way with us.
5. Victory in our life is only achieved by death to self.
6. The devil uses many strategies to discourage and mislead us.
7. How to overcome the devil's strategy.
8. We will also be involved in Christ's Second Coming.

Read and be encouraged to abide more deeply in Christ!

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Goldmine Read!!!, April 10, 2006

This review is from: Bone of His Bone: Studies on the Indwelling Christ (Paperback)

F.J. Huegel makes his case very clear, through his own life examples and through the Scriptures - we are "participants" in the Life of Christ, from his death, resurrection, and ascension into the heavenly places. We reckon ourselves to be dead unto sin and alive to God through Jesus Christ, he affirms through the Scriptures, and through faith, the application of these truths become as real as breathing. It's as if the Spirit of God has breathed His life through this author.

Highly recommended!!

5.0 out of 5 stars It'll bring you up to the next level, August 12, 2003

This review is from: Bone of His Bone: (Paperback)

I had to read this book for my class "Spiritual Formation" at Luther Rice Seminary. Although I was a Christian for many years, this book really opened my eyes, and I think brought me up a few levels in my spiritual understanding.

It goes into the Nth degree about understanding our relationship in Christ. It really puts the "spirituality" into Christianity. Some churches are dead spiritually. Some have gone off the deep end in chasing, what they think, is the Holy Spirit. What's the correct spiritual understanding for Christians? I think this book shows it quite clearly... real spirituality without the wackiness.

I recommend this book to even "mature" Christians. For those who think they've seen it all, I'll bet they still learn from this one. It goes right to the heart, and it will make you love and live in our Lord much more deeply.
