Book Review
of Calling Forth the Remnant
I came across this book shortly after the Lord began to give me a revelation of the Cross and I found the book to be a blessing to my life because it gave me clear understanding of God’s eternal plan for his people. The scriptures states in Matthew Chapter 7:13-14 "Enter through the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the road is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who go through it. How narrow is the gate and difficult the road that leads to life, and few find it.” This book shows us how one must walk if he/she is to enter into the narrow gate and how through the knowledge of good and evil many are walking through the wide gate. The only way the believer can walk through the narrow gate is through a daily surrender of one’s self, Calling Forth the Remnant shows us God’s will for his children to learn to depend on him and surrender one’s self. I highly recommend this book to anyone seeking to understand the origin of man and how his condition is a result of not receiving from the tree of life but from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. The book also helped me to understand that law was not given to God’s people but for one reason that is to bring them to Christ. I have come to understand why the “church” as we know it is in a fallen condition is because of the deadly error, apostasy, and trust in flesh. As we approach the end of this age we can only look to Christ and Him crucified to set us free from the flesh (self) which has come as result of man taking from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

Calling Forth the Remnant By Way of the Cross is beautifully written. It is evident in the reading, that you were led by the Holy Spirit as you walk us through the mine-field of today’s Christian beliefs and doctrinal positions. We all are limited to the use of the same terminology when we attempt to share our beliefs. What I so appreciated as I went through the book was your obedience to the Spirit’s leading. We need to be cognizant of the fact that all of our opinions hold no weight whatsoever, when brought out into the light of God’s purposes… HIS intent is all that matters. We all must come into complete agreement with His Word as revealed within our hearts by His Holy Spirit. I would encourage every believer that truly hungers and thirsts after righteousness to read this book, as it will go a long way toward dispelling the confusion and misunderstandings we have all picked up along the way, pertaining to God’s purposes. If ever there was a time when the body of Christ needed a sound Biblical foundation, it is now. Thank you for your obedience to the Lord in the face of great personal suffering. I know that this was no small task. Now we rest in the knowledge that “…neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase” 1 Corinthians 3:7.
