Holiness, Truth and the Presence of God [Paperback]

Francis Frangipane (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: November 1, 1986

This book, HOLINESS, TRUTH AND THE PRESENCE OF GOD, is not a book for everyone. It is for those who are unsatisfied with their progress and willing to do something about it. It is for every saint who feels he cannot exist unless he finds the fullness of God.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not For the Simply "Religous Person", July 22, 2000

By 

Rocco B. Rubino "Rocco R." (Ohio) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Holiness, Truth and the Presence of God (Paperback)

Francis Frangipane's work will only benefit those who are serious about "being serious about God." This book, like the teachings of Jesus, strikes hard at the self-righteousness, and Christian Pharasee-ism that is so very prevalent in Christendom today. For those who are simply looking to "make clean the outside of the cup," this book is not for you.

But for those who are willing to "forsake all," and "take up your cross daily" to "follow Him," this book will bring you closer to God than you have ever been. A truly wonderful work, mightily influenced by the Holy Spirit!

This review is from: Holiness, Truth and the Presence of God (Paperback)

Let me begin this review with a quote from this outstanding book by author Francis Frangipane,
"Those who would find God, find time"
If you are a Christian who is truly seeking more of the indwelling of the one you serve this is the book for you.

The author pulls no punches in this work as he shares with you the way to a deeper walk with God. He explains that in drawing closer to God, you will be exposing your own heart and the motives therein, something some of us may not be ready to see.

He speaks of repentance, faking Christianity, overcoming idols and shaking free from the many things that have us in bondage. My favorite part of this great book was Chapter 15, "Holiness Is A Tree Ripe With Fruit." Here the author makes you face your very existence as a Christian by the words of the Bible, "The tree is known by its fruit." Talk about cutting to the quick. Just how much fruit are we bearing, or are we afraid to know?

This is a book that will make you search your heart and study your walk with God. Just how much are you willing to put on the cross and how much of His likeness are you willing to become? This book will challenge every Christian who reads the words between its pages.

This read was great! Highly Recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars A signpost on the 'narrow road'..., November 27, 2000

By

This review is from: Holiness, Truth and the Presence of God (Paperback)

For those who want a more intimate relationship with the Lord, for those who want a deeper, more meaningful walk in their faith, for those who need their hope in Christ rekindled afresh, this book is for you.

Mr. Frangipane is one of the best (if not 'the' best) modern-day Christian writers that we have been blessed with. This book is likely his very best, and with good reason. It focuses on the dynamic, essential, basic relationship believers have with their God.

The discourse on the holiness of God is astute - as is the message about the Truth. The church needs to learn anew what the holiness of God is, what His reverent holy presence means to us, and how we should rightly respond to said-same.

This is one of those titles that every Christian should have on their bookshelves, especially those who desire a more dynamic and vital relationship with the Lord.

Can't recommend this one highly enough.
