There is a disciplinary side in bodily suffering, but the healing comes as quickly as the lesson is learned. This is particularly true regarding those that have the gift of leadership. Trust him fully as your Saviour and Master. And He will meet it eagerly and to the full.
Two others keep it close company, so far as being tangled is concerned, namely, holiness, and the return of Christ. Pierced Hand is reaching down to give. But giving is a fine art, so as not to hurt in trying to help. And the taking needs skill, too, though the simplest may take all he needs.
Skill in taking is chiefly skill of the heart. Matured rounded-out teaching is yet more rare. And the chief need to-day, in the bustle and dust of much stirring about, is teaching, simple, clear, full, poised teaching. It is easy to get warped unmatured partial statements, quite honestly made, on these subjects. The direct preparation of this little book has taken eleven years, the indirect runs further back. I felt the need of getting my own feet on a difficult bit of pavement.

How does it work with those in play? It is a difficult theological problem to consider, for certain. Apart from establishing strong theological viewpoints without a solid base, Gordon does present other issues, seemingly creating new theological doctrine regarding the dominion of land, when although G-d gave the land to Adam, Adam did not own it, but was simply a caretaker. G-d still owned all of creation, otherwise G-d would not be able to forcibly remove Satan from his post in Revelation, as recorded for apocalyptic purposes. Such a situation does need to be carefully considered.
This is disconcerting in this regard.

This is also the best description I've seen of how to pray for loved prodigals. This book starts off with some hard hitting points made about the state of your heart as it relates to prayer. And he also has some great encouragement for unanswered prayer too. This book was good for providing direction on how to pray more effectively and also for creating a sense of urgency in my prayers.
