Closing a Cycle
With this edition we are closing the cycle that we began in the January-February edition on the topic of "Spirit, soul and body". In the development of this cycle we have addressed the indispensable aspects of man's tripartite nature, each one of its parts, and the place of each of them in the purpose of God for man.
On this occasion we emphasize the aspect of the soul; especially, the dangers of an insubordinate and rebellious soul in the service of the Christian. A great proportion of the havoc caused in the church throughout history is due to this cause. Be they old or new problems, from here or there, if we seek to investigate the principal causes, the soul is involved, with its thousand chicaneries and its diverse egocentrism.
In this edition, we present the article, "Earthly, animal, diabolical", by Derek Prince. This English author, who went to be with the Lord a short time ago, gives us a mature and assured vision of the charismatic movement of the last decades, and of its virtues and excesses.
As always, we give this work into the hands of the Lord and of his people, so that he may anoint it and guide it toward the hearts of his beloved.
May it be so.
