This book is an incredible and fantastic journey into the message, teachings, heart, spirit, soul, mind and body of Jesus Christ. Derek Prince was initially educated as a philosopher at Eton College and Cambridge University in England. He also studied Greek, Latin, Hebrew and Aramaic before becoming a Christian. His unique education and skills provided him with the ability to truly translate the Word-of-God (logos) into understandable English text. A lot of understanding can be easily lost when translating from one language to another; however, Derek Prince was able to interpret old texts precisely as they were originally meant to be known. One of the brilliant aspects of his mind and writings is to define the difference between logos and rhema from Greek: Logos is the unchanging Word-of-God which is eternal, and rhema is a word which is spoken and occurs in time and space. Rhema is the way in which the Holy Spirit brings a portion of the logos (Word-of-God) down or from eternity and relates it to time and human experience. Through reading this book, 3 times, I've learned that the concept of faith is so incredibly vast and challenging that I'm just in awe over the whole subject. If you are on the path of seeking God, eventually you will find Jesus. And this book is packed full of gems and will truly open your heart, mind and soul to Jesus... Thank you ever so much for this book Derek Prince, wherever you are now!!!
