Synopsis

Mentor’s Guide - DescriptionThis is the Mentor’s Guide for the first of a three-volume series called, Mentoring His Way - Disciple Twelve based on the “Twelve Characteristics of a Godly Life”. In this first book, we learn about the four “Spiritual Characteristics of a Godly Life.” I am a Believer: I know Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and SaviorThe first characteristic of a Godly life is about your assurance of knowing Christ as your personal Lord and Savior. To conform to the image of Christ, you need to have no doubts that He is in your life and that you are assured of your relationship with Him and that you have eternal life.I am Empowered: I am controlled and empowered by the Holy SpiritThe second spiritual characteristic of a Godly life is understanding the power we have available to live the Christian life. Each day we choose to gratify the desires of the flesh or the will of the Spirit. Our spirit is satisfied only when we are totally surrendered to the control of God the Holy Spirit.I am Victorious: I have Christ’s authority over all the enemy’s powerThe third spiritual characteristic of a Godly life is to apply Christ’s power over Satan. People struggle with temptation every day. We can have real victory over sin by exercising Christ’s authority over all of Satan’s influence. Because we have Christ in us, He gives us the power and authority over the enemy to stop his attacks. I am a Warrior: I put on all of God’s armor in order to defeat SatanThe fourth spiritual characteristic of a Godly life is learning how to put on the full armor of God for warfare against the enemy. God promised a way to keep temptation from becoming so strong that we could not stand up against it. He gave us six pieces of armor and instructions for their use. This gives Christians the ability to walk in the Spirit instead of walking in the flesh.Volume Two covers the “Personal Characteristics of a Godly Life”. Volume Three covers the “Lifestyle Characteristics of a Godly Life”.

About this title

About the Author

Dr. Roy Comstock is the author of Mentoring His Way, Disciple Twelve. He and his wife Sarah, co-founded the Christian Mentors Network in 2000. Roy is a man who has had many unique life experiences. In his early childhood days, he was forced to adapt to living in fourteen different foster homes. As an ambitious businessman, he saw the rise and fall of his own multi-million-dollar corporation, which led to the humbling adjustment of a life in prison confinement. This was a lesson in what can happen to a Christian who dares to take their eyes off Jesus for a time. This book has not been written by a perfect man or by one whose life has always been a model for others to follow. Roy's life has not always been easy. He, like all true Christians, has been and is a work of God "in process." We may call this Roy Comstock's "Prison Epistle," since much of this material was written while he was serving a prison term. Roy experienced major failure to his marriage, his business, and his personal life because of his misguided focus on self rather than on Christ. But Roy repented and turned to Christ in a deeper way than ever before. He cried out to the Lord concerning his own life, and the Lord responded not only to his needs, but also taught him insights that can be of great help to anyone who desires to truly follow Jesus Christ. It was during his time in prison that the Lord revealed many of the principles that Roy calls the “Twelve Characteristics of a Godly Life.” Roy and his wife Sarah, live in Valencia, California. www.christianmentorsnetwork.org
