Get your thank you email ready to send because after reading this post I KNOW that you will want to express your gratitude. (Am I being cocky? Nope, just convinced.) To say that what you are about to read is powerful might well be the understatement of the year!
Before I go any further, let me give credit where credit is due. I recently reread F.F. Bosworth’s Christ the Healer and found myself going through highlighter pen after highlighter pen emphasizing the many rich truths found in this book. (If you don’t have a copy of this book, do yourself a favor and order it NOW! Christ the Healer – Revised and Expanded Edition) The book is so good that I not only highlighted Bosworth’s insights, but I entered quotation after quotation into my Excel spreadsheet so that these truths wouldn’t fade away.
These insights are too powerful to keep to myself. In this post, I will share 12 of these quotations plus the page number on which they can be found. (Note: This is from the Revised and Expanded Edition published in 2008. Page numbers in previous editions will read differently.)
Before you read Bosworth’s insights, I need to share this note of warning. After each of the quotes shown below, you’ll find yourself bellowing “Oh, yes!” Please be mindful of those around you.
