The Inner Life Its Nature, Relapse, and Recovery

Jesus, the Good Shepherd, grants eternal life to His sheep—not just a life reserved for the future but one that starts in the life we now. But how are we to understand this supernatural gift? What does it look like as Christ accomplishes his good work within us? In The Inner Life, Octavius Winslow examines what it means for believers to have the spiritual power of Christ living in them. After looking at how the Spirit of Christ lives in His disciples, Winslow carefully explains how our spiritual life is assaulted, struggles, and regains strength as we travel a difficult but blessed road to our heavenly rest.

“If you desire to live with “the conscious power of truth in your soul,” to be “so intensely glowing with the love of Christ, as to be ever ready to open your lips for God—a well always full, and running over,” if you crave that your soul “feel more, weep more, love more, pray more and live more,” and if your heart burns for a greater anointing in “Christ-exalting, soul-awakening, soul-winning, soul-searching, soul-loving ministry,” this book is for you.” Tanner Turley, foreword.
