About the Book

Raised From The Dead offers the reader a fresh look into the two-millennium old message of Redemption through Jesus Christ.  It takes the reader beyond mere religious conformity and morality to the essence of the gospel’s message, the resurrection of persons from death to life by the power of God.

Overcoming the Death begins as a spiritual work while we are still on earth.  It is evidenced by the illumination of the mind and the transformation of the heart towards both God and Man.  From these we are able to know what we could not have known, be what we could not have been, and do what we could not have done, left to our own religious invention.  Knowing God in this life is true participation in the divine nature.  The better we understand this the more likely we will grow up to become spiritually mature.

Raised From the Dead is a dialogue aimed at providing spiritual direction and inspiration to the reader who seeks to intimately know God.  Some 280 scripture passages with over 1,000 verses are referenced.  Raised From the Dead bridges the mind and heart into a unified expression of true faith, hope and love in Jesus Christ.
