The RElease of the Spirit

Here are some quotes from the latest book I've read.

"anyone who serves god will discover the great hinderance to his work is not others but himself."

"ordinarily they shouldbe enabled by the exercise of their spirit to know god's word, to discern the spiritual condition of another, to send forth god's messages under anointing and to recieve god's revelations."

"the aim of the lord is to destroy the outer man."

"the cross must destroy all that belongs to our outward man- our opinions, our ways, our cleverness, our self-love, our all."

"become transparent"

"let us remember that the one reason for all misunderstanding, all fretfulness, all discontent, is that we secretely love ourselves."

-more to come later!
