LONGWOOD, FL-Almost everyone is familiar with Christ's Beatitudes. But why did He speak them and how do we live them? Christ's Beatitudes: A New Era of Forgiveness, Grace and Christian Living ($10.99, paperback, 978-1-60266-242-1; $18.99, hardcover, 978-1-60266-243-8), by Lawrence J. Pencook, gives new insight into these pertinent truths and their application in our daily lives. The author's presentation of these principles will enhance our walk with God and our effectiveness as a disciple. Consequently, readers will be able to greatly impact the kingdom of heaven to the glory of God.
"The model I discovered will create a greater awareness of how you fit into the kingdom of heaven," says Pencook. "It will cast aside your childlike pie-in-the-sky understanding of the Beatitudes and elevate you to a new level of spiritual understanding of the divine will. The Christian will know exactly where they fall in this model and learn how God is preparing His people for future and immediate service."
Pencook has been meditating and praying on this text for a very long time. An avid seeker of all things biblical, he always sought out the deeper meanings of the Bible as the living Word. His new revelations, unveiled in Christ's Beatitudes, will shed new light on these superlatives without contradicting or misconstruing its doctrines with human wisdom.
Lawrence J. Pencook is a licensed gospel minister through Lifeline Baptist Church (Southern Baptist Convention) in Excelsior Springs, Missouri. Since retiring from the military, he and his family have resided in Virginia Beach, Virginia.
