Summary: Genuine and wholesome spirituality -- this is the goal of all Christian living. It sounds so simple, doesn't it? Perhaps the principle may be, but living by the principle is another matter altogether. In [this book, the author] reminds you that 'the Bible must be the guide and test for all our experiences in the spiritual life ... and if any experience fails to pass that test, it must be discarded.' He warns that 'an unbalanced application of the doctrines related to spirituality will result in an unbalanced Christian life.' [He] examines numerous key issues of spirituality, including The old and the new life; Sanctification; Using your gifts; Routine faithfulness; Wiles of the Devil; Temptation; Confessing and forgiving. -Back cover.
