Book Review: TOUCHING GODLINESS 

by K.P. Yohannen

     The new book "Touching Godliness" by K.P. Yohannen is a well-presented, thoughtful look at how to progress step by step towards Godliness. Godliness involves submission, and the author explains how inner or outer rebellion sabotages a close walk with the Lord Jesus Christ.
     Through many Biblical examples, and moving personal testimonies, strength under control is the means by which God's eternal purposes are accomplished. The Apostle Paul learnt submission and brokenness before God and man; however he was no doormat, but a brilliant leader and pioneer.
     As our mind is renewed through trust, faith and obedience, our greatest model and example is the Lord Jesus Christ.
     We are shown that submission is not to be seen as a negative quality. Indeed, if we are not under God's designated authority, we are slaves to satanic influence. (Romans 13:3-5). If we rebel, it is actually against God  (1Samuel 8:7).
     However, the book also explains there are times when we must obey God, not other authorities.
     Submission is strength under control. There are many benefits including Divine Protection and the fact that we are not easily deceived when we walk God's way in humility and brokenness. Walking close to Jesus, we are blessed, even though there are many trials!
     This book spoke directly to my heart and mind. It's a rich blessing and an essential read if you really want to touch Godliness! Thanks K.P!
