5.0 out of 5 stars A must read for new and older christians alike!, October 19, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: There Were Two Trees in the Garden (Paperback)

I don't like to say this..but not many books keep me through the end. Partly because of my busy life and partly because there just isn't enough in the content to keep me interested. I am proud to say I finished Rick Joyner's "There were Two Trees in the Garden! I found that the author had so much spiritual insight that I just had to keep coming back for more! I have recommended this book to friends and relatives because I feel so many christians have not grasped some of the great truths of the Bible and what it takes to please God! I believe everyone can benefit from the wisdom imparted through reading this book. Scripture is quoted throughout the book in bold text with insights presented in easy to understand language. I believe when a reader finishes this book he will be enlightened. I will reread this book to use as a reminder that we cannot please God with our goodness it must come through a spiritual relationship with Him.

5.0 out of 5 stars The richness of the Word comes to life......, October 7, 1999

This review is from: There Were Two Trees in the Garden (Paperback)

Mr. Joyner has again painted a masterpiece using the Word of God. The straight-forward approach and depth of God's word is so wonderfully innertwined. I had to read it, re-read it, and allow it to soak in because each morsel was meat to my spirit. Highly recommended to every believer willing to receive from the richness of God's Word.

5.0 out of 5 stars THE PERFECT EXPLANATION OF WHY THINGS ARE THE WAY THEY ARE., June 1, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: There Were Two Trees in the Garden (Paperback)

AFTER 20 YEARS IN THE CHURCH AND WONDERING HOW CHRISTIANS COULD ACT THE WAY THEY DO AND WHY CHURCHES SPLIT, I NOW UNDERSTAND HOW AND WHY THAT HAPPENS. THE BOOK ADDRESSED MANY ISSUES THAT WOULD AT BEST BE CONTROVERSIAL AS FAR AS ANY RELIGIOUS LEADER WOULD BE CONCERNED, BUT IT WENT PAST RELIGION INTO THE RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD AND THE RIGHTS HE GIVES US AND THE CHOICES WE MAKE. THIS BOOK WAS THE BEGINNING OF MY EYES BEING OPENED TO THE SPIRITUAL REALM AND GOD'S ALLOWING US THE ABILITY TO DO WHAT WE WANT AND THE CONSEQUENCES THEREOF.
