A valuable manual for teaching, revival, and practical living.

In times of crisis like ours, only by returning to the solid spiritual and moral foundation that the Bible can provide is it possible to confront and resolve all the problems of daily life satisfactorily and without disappointment.Philosophies, educational permissiveness, and religious or political fanaticism offer nothing truly good or lasting for the life of the soul. The apostle Paul wrote: "For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God (the "dynamite") that brings salvation to everyone who believes" (Romans 1:16). This volume is, in fact, a complete course in biblical studies, based on a sure faith. Each lesson of The Transforming Word is then supplemented by a series of questions for further personal study of the individual topics covered in the course.

"Is not my word like fire, and like a hammer that breaks a rock? says the Lord." And this effect appears persistently in the thoughts contained in these few pages: a fire that incinerates and purifies; a hammer that gives no respite until the thing is properly shaped. The Christian Church, the Body of Christ, knows no sunsets despite being constantly decimated by the Spirit of truth more than by a hostile world. He who selects it is the same one who revives it and makes it perfect. The body that should reject this life-giving action of the Holy Spirit would have sealed its own condemnation: it would not be "the Body." The Holy Spirit is to the Church as the soul is to the human body. Therefore, the baptism or fullness of the Holy Spirit, which profoundly characterized the early Church, must shape the face of today's Christian Church.
