Book Description When Heaven Invades Earth is a powerful statement and testimony on the Kingdom of God. Theologically sound, well supported, and extremely well argued, this message provides a carefully constructed biblical foundation for the average Christian to live and walk in the miraculous, supernatural power of God. Not only is the supernatural possible, it is also our commission. The Great Commission that Christ gave to the Church challenges us and makes us responsible to rise up to this supreme supernatural calling. Johnson shows you how you are called to dominion in the earth through the divine rule of God.

THE KINGDOM COMES IN POWER July 12, 2008 This book is the first of many written by Bill Johnson which is bringing light to the Church and the World. Jesus told us how to pray - Thy kingdom come Thy Will Be Done on the Earth as it is in Heaven............ The church which has become irrelevant in todays society because it is filled with doctrines of men and demons is coming together in unity. When we as the church come together in unity God pours out his Spirit and His blessings upon us. This book is a great starting point to see this come about and bring what God desires to this earth - Healing -Deliverance and Freedom to his creation.
Are you a bystander or are you with the crew? June 13, 2008 This will move and shake you if you think the church is dead, or if you are discouraged that most truly are disoriented and legalistic. There is still a body of believers who press forward toward God's own mission in the first place, and He is invited into their lives to rest on, and work the works that make the Good News such good news. God is alive and He is showing Himself available to all who would press forward and ask for more of Him. That's what this book is about. Ushering and welcoming God to invade our kingdom, and He is winning.
An annoited man!!!! May 28, 2008 This is a very spirit filled book. I love that Bill doesn't try to have all the answers, instead he does the opposite. GOd is so big and so wonderous and so awesome we'll never have him figured out. If you are looking for a spirit moving book, here it is.
Authentic Christianity Exposed May 18, 2008 Bill Johnson wants the authentic Church, the Acts Church to be the norm. This guy has some generational history and is one of God`s general`s.
Three different kinds of bad May 9, 2008 4 out of 12 found this review helpful
I am currently on page 45 of this book, and into my eighth page of notes outlining the terrible exegesis, fallacious lines of reasoning and dangerous rhetoric better suited to a motivational speaker. I can only conclude at this point that the only people who will find edification in this book are those people who buy into any nice-sounding "theology," or already believe the assertions that Johnson states as fact, rather than proving out of the Bible.
As some other reviewers have mentioned, Johnson tends to use scriptures that describe (self-admittedly) mysterious and complex topics (e.g. the Kingdom of God, Worship, the presence of God, etc.) to support his particular bent of theology. If he were to actually make a well though-out case for his assertions, that would be one thing, but instead he bookends these statements with words like "obviously" and "it is apparent" to silence any discussion in the matter.
Also, Johnson routinely follows poor lines of reasoning, as seen in this following excerpt (p. 45):
"Faith lives within the revealed will of God. When I have misconceptions of who He is and what He is like, my faith is restricted by those misconceptions. For example, if I believe that God allows sickness in order to build character, I'll not have confidence praying in most situations where healing is needed."
So what Johnson is saying, if I could re-organize his thoughts, is that 1) God never allows sickness to build character, and presumably not for any other reason, 2) every situation where sickness is present is intended to end in healing, and 3) the confidence of the person praying directly influences the effectiveness of the prayer. This is bad reasoning, and each of those three points contains room for discussion out of the scriptures.
Additionally, he overuses commas and italicized text. Pass on this one.
