| | Chapter 1 - How to obtain fulness of power in Christian Life & Service by R.A. Torrey
Topic: Audio Books Scripture(s): Acts 1:8 | | Description: From many earnest hearts there is rising a cry for more power: more power in our personal conflict with the world, the flesh, and the devil, more power in our work for others. The Bible makes the way to obtain this longed for power very plain. There is no presumption in undertaking to tell "How to obtain Fulness of Power in Christian Life and Service"; for the Bible itself tells, and the Bible was intended to be understood. The Bible statement of the way is not mystical nor mysterious, it is very plain and straightforward. If we will only make personal trial of "The Power of the Word of God," "The Power of the Blood of Christ," "The Power of the Holy Spirit," "The Power of Prayer," "The Power of a Surrendered Life," we will then know " The Fulness of Power in Christian Life and Service." We will try to make this plain in the following chapters.
