Seeing in the Spirit is biblically valid - book helped me understand & lose my fear/confusion about the supernatural
Wow! I read this book over the course of just 2 days. I bought it a while back but hadn't read it until now. I had some fear with seeing in the spirit realm. After reading this book, I have a MUCH greater understanding. I am also now interested in contemplative prayer - which James Goll briefly touches on in this book. I am willing to finally leave prejudices behind about the wonderful and supernatural means that God DOES in fact use to communicate with us. I have bought into the lies that this is somehow of the occult or non-biblical. Further inspection of the scriptures for myself (away from any teachers - no matter how great I thought they were) showed me this is not the case. God DOES speak to us, He DOES manifest Himself to us when we obey and love Him, and there IS a tangible, actual presence of God. What a shame this is being demonized in many Christian circles because there is NOTHING more wonderful and joyous than God's actual presence. Seeing in the Spirit is also another way God interacts with us. I have abandoned my fears and have come to realize how truly amazing this really is.
The Bible is filled with visions, dreams, divine interactions, etc. Any person reading the Bible - setting aside other opinions influencing him/her - will plainly see that the gifts will not cease until the return of Jesus Christ. Also, that we are to hear God's voice and commune with Him. John 5:39 - hit me hard during a terrible time of fear and confusion because of all the various doctrines on this topic. "Search the scriptures: for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are that which testify of Me. And ye will not come to Me, that ye might have life." We don't know Jesus through the Scripture, we know about Him from the Scripture. We do have to go to Him and seek Him in addition to studying the scriptures. He is a real Person, and this is a real relationship.
I tabbed the section James Goll wrote on testing the source and testing the spirits as this is something that I have not always done and now have excellent information about from this book. I also have reassurance that this does not offend God and/or Holy angels - as this is what we are told to do. I highly recommend this book - and I think it would be tremendously awesome for more Christians to leave the fear of deception, fear of the devil, and fear of the religious folks ridicule behind. We are able to enjoy a *REAL* relationship with Christ even during our time on earth.
