This book is simply incredible ! Have never seen love humility present in such a poignant way!
it is wisdom from God!

Just read chapter 82 and it applies so well to our current infatuation with the world and its on goings...
i can say for now I have such little understanding of it and yet my spirit rejoices every time I do understand in part or even to view the lofty words said and the humility and loving manner which it is composed....

I wonder how many here have felt the longing , deep longing for God as a deer pants for water, even as we have just rejoiced in full breakthrough and tears moments ago, yet realizing the desire that cannot seem to be satisfied ...
I haven't, not even close to the extent which my words express, but if you are mature and wise and discerning, and LONGING for God, not theology and exegesis which bores you though useful...

for understanding of LOVE and what it is to be nothing in love of God who is everything. I strongly recommend this book!
it is endorsed by rolled baker who is married to Heidi baker, both have PhDs in theology, and are the end of IRIS miniatures which serves the poorest part of Africa Mozambique and caters for the poorest of the poor.
Rollands grandfather wrote visions beyond the veil, a strong of the powerfully outpouring in a very pour area of China. He walked many miles and suffered many hardships to bring the gospel to orphaned boys who wept under unction of Holy Spirit confession loudly their sins and received visions of heaven !!
Both these Bakers went poor, full of faith, and were rewarded !
So that's a cool book to check out too! More of a testimony and encouraging...

but it visions beyond the veil is like a super advanced PHD theology book which bypasses all the silly stuff and gets to the core of who God is, God is Love! And I could prob rave forever at the compassion of our suffering and the suffering of Christ which is expressed, of understanding of seraphim, the glories reserved for the apostles, Magdalene, John the baptists and of Mary, the way in which understanding was shed on humility and obedience....

i barely grasp a bit of it. But it will always accompany me as a book of guidance, that one day my own love and selflessness and humility could achieve such heights ...

Ps she was burned at the stake as a heretic, offered to be set free if she denounced her book, but she did not say one word and calmly went and died .

anyways, for those interested I HIGHLY recommend this book, pray and consider it ! As always follow as Holy Spirit leads !

I know this deep longing that she speaks, the blazing fire inside your heart that burns solely out of love and adoration for him that deep and intense hunger and thirst that is never filled and no matter how much of him you receive you always feel so underfed and would give anything and go any distance for just a bit more of him the way your heart just melts when you are with him having that deep and special intimacy with him that is to rich and beautiful for words how his heart is a deep and vast ocean that your heart would give up all the treasures and honor every crown and title from him in heaven to jump in and sink to the endless depths that is his heart for eternity and as you see and experience more more of him as you continue to sink your fall madly in love with him over and over and over again each time falling in love with him with a richer depth.

For those who know the hunger and whose love for him and with him is never ending and is as a blazing fire that burns hotter and hotter they know the phrase enough is never enough.

I have not met a ton of people who know this hunger to such a degree but even though they may use a different way to express it the message is the same. I would love to read this book

In anyone reads this book or has read it! pm me or post your thoughts... Have never seen love written like this before! Makes me realize the depths of God's love, which surpass all human attempts to describe it, yet what little we understand and can express testifies to the vastness that is inexpressible and unknown and yet one day will be made known to us! Makes me want to curl into a ball and be loved by God right now... Which is exactly what I'm going to do lol! I'd add a picture of a small kitten curling in a ball but I'm a fat 200lb Chinese dude lol. But you know what... God thinks I'm cuter than that kitten and that's all that matters to me :).

I have read the book "visions beyond the veil". Those kids had some supernatural encounters with the Lord. I enjoyed it and it gave me visions of heaven myself within my spirit and the interaction between them. It also helped me to see other people in the Lord too as being loved by God deeply.

Knowing the love of God is paramount in growing up in Him as Paul talks about in Ephesians and the prayer he did to the Father. Knowing the love of Christ is what fills us up to the fullness of God.

Ephesians 3:16-19 (NASB)
[SUP]16 [/SUP] that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man,

[SUP]17 [/SUP] so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and grounded in love,

[SUP]18 [/SUP] may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth,

[SUP]19 [/SUP] and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled up to all the fullness of God.
