BLISS (Blessed Life in Seven Sacraments)

About the Book

BLISS is a faith-provoking book. Scripture says in Ephesians 2: 8, ‘By the grace of God you have been saved through faith.’ Faith is the activator and receptor of the graces of salvation; without faith we are at the risk of losing the grace of salvation. Romans 10: 17 says, ‘Faith comes by hearing the word of Christ.’ The quality of a believer’s faith is proportional to the amount of God’s Word heard, believed, and practised. The sacraments are treasures and containers of the powers of salvation; they contain power for forgivingness, healing, deliverance, freedom, victory, breakthrough, and sundry favours. Faith is the ability and disposition to receive and enjoy these blessings. Faith is necessary for the experience of the awesome powers of the sacraments. Faith releases the sacraments from habitual and conditioned confinement to mere ritual to a life-giving cistern of reality. BLISS is a handy, helpful, and practical book of faith that leads all Christians to tap the abundant powers in the sacraments. BLISS is about getting more and all out of the sacraments as it ought to be.
