Living in God's Kingdom on EarthMature believers typically desire to accomplish the will of God for their lives and want to do the works of Jesus. However, they see limited opportunities and little fruit born of their efforts. This insightful book gives a fresh perspective to those wanting to yield themselves and do the works of Jesus. Its direct application of the Bible to daily living is bold. Get ready to be challenged: You have been fully enabled to do the works of Jesus! Now what? Your motives and intentions are good. Why is there no fruit to show for your works? How does God lead me? Are you reacting to situations or are you responding in a disciplined, Godly way? Living in God's Kingdom on Earth will bring to light several critical concepts for believers and explain the Biblical basis for the principles behind them. Charles R.
