Acts 2:16, 17 But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel, And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith the Lord, I will pour out of my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions and your old men shall dream dreams: This book contains some of the dreams and visions and the understanding of them that the Holy Spirit has given me over the years. As you read PARABLES OF LIGHT my prayer is that it blesses and stirs you up to seek out what the Holy Spirit is saying to you in your dreams and vision in these last days. May God bless you on the quest. Proverbs 25:2 It is the glory of God to conceal a thing; but the honor of kings is to search out a matter.

Have you ever imagined your life free from sin and keeping Satan out of your life. There has to be a way. Bill Vincent reveals that the greatest form of spiritual warfare for any Christian is the powerful force of obedience. SATAN S OPEN DOORS will give you a fresh revelation of how God supplies in the Spirit and prompt your heart and mind to find hidden sins and identify rebellion. As you are challenged to be holy, you'll discover how grace gives you the power not to be a slave to sin anymore."

The purpose of this Book is to present some important principles of healing which may help you as you step out in faith and begin laying hands on the sick. The information in this Book might be different than what you have always been taught, but consider keeping an open mind in case God wants to reveal something new to you. Check these things against the Bible; don't just believe what I say or what other people have said!

Remember that it is not a prayer, because Jesus never prayed for the sick. It is a command, so firmly get it fixed in your mind to say, In the name of Jesus, we command....And then speak to the part of the body that needs healing. When Jesus healed the sick man at the pool of Bethesda, He said, Rise, take up your bed and walk (John 5:8). In Matthew 12:13, Jesus commanded the man with the withered hand, Stretch out your hand, and when the man did, his hand was restored as whole as the other. Jesus disciples followed His example of making healing commands, as recorded in Acts 3:6 in the healing of the lame man: Then Peter said, Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give to you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.' Verse 7 proclaims, And he took him by the right hand and lifted him up, and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength. The Scriptures go on to report that the healed man began walking and leaping, and praising God! Notice also that when the people put their FAITH INTO ACTION whether by stretching out their hand, or taking up their bed and walking, or rising up and walking they were healed!"

What does a sponsor do during the process of Christian initiation?

The author also includes guidance for sponsoring families.

This volume aims to offer a course on the spiritual life. The author looks at ways in which the words people use can prevent them from being aware of themselves and others.
