LONGWOOD, FLÑMany Christians find themselves illiterate when it comes to understanding the meaning of the Bible. The language of God is eternal; it never changes in its meaning or application. It is therefore important for the born-again believer to become a student of this language and demonstrate fluency in its usage. Readers can do exactly that in Kirk E. Hillman's Kingdom Language - Volume One. ($9.99, paperback, 978-1-60477-264-7), which is filled with revelations that will give fresh insight into the wonders of GodÕs Word, as well as increase understanding and literacy of the Bible's vernacular
"Most born-again believers struggle in their sanctification walk due to a lack of understanding of God's Word," says Hillman. "Having heard many of the words, concepts, and principles contained in the Bible and having even memorized many of them, [I find that] 'functional illiteracy' still prevails. It is my prayer the reader walks away with a fresh perspective of those words, concepts, and principles, that 'biblical literacy' replaces 'functional illiteracy' in their Christian walk as an outcome of renewed understanding of God's Word."
As the first of many volumes designed to be a vehicle to aid biblical literacy, Kingdom Language will stimulate readers to give further study to God's way of speaking to us. Hillman, an ordained elder, certified biblical counselor, administrator, teacher, exhorter, and born-again Christian, believes this is a project ordained by God for the edification of the body of Christ, and hopes his book will accomplish just that as one manifested fruit of its purpose.
