Welcome to The Secret Of Eternal Life! (John 3:16)
This is a Christian site dedicated to Our Lord, and Loving Saviour, Jesus Christ.
This site contains the life works of W.H. Turner (Bill Turner). Those of us who know Bill Turner, will know him to be a man of sheer outstanding character, integrity, spiritual insight, and love. He is the greatest authority on Spiritual dynamics and the Kingdom of God that I know. Through his amazing Prophetic, and Teaching ministry many have come to know our Lord Jesus Christ. This Web Designer being one of the many greatly touched and enhanced by this man's ministry through Christ. I for one would not be alive were it not through Bill's own intervention, through Jesus Christ Our Lord. But that is another story.
This site contains a lifetime's work and study by a man who 'walks the talk'.
08-Mar-07 ...An update on Bill's health - many thanks to you all for your prayers. Bill is healing and we are all grateful for your intercession. Thanks be to God (and your heart-filled prayers), that He decided to allow us the pleasure of Bill's service for some more time. Bill is still in recovery and very poorly at times. He is plagued by pain at night, getting only 3 hours sleep. Arthritic pain, blood pressure, excessive tiredness are consistent problems for Bill now. Please continue to pray for him and Pauline. Thankyou all so very, very much.
Also, Bill has ammended some of the greek references in his study on "By his Stripes we are healed". I have included this in the new download package for you.
Please browse this site. It is a truly wonderful resource for all Christians everywhere. It is totally free, and the entire works / studies / audio files may be freely downloaded and distributed "Freely you have received, freely give." (Matt 10v.8). There is something for everyone here...
The site download also includes books & studies by C.L.Parker, an amazing man of God. These are truly wonderful studies and Bill personally studied under C.L.Parker many years ago. Some of these books have been updated by Bill. Deepest gratitude & thanks to Mr. F. Cook for providing all CL Parker's books. Also included in this new download is the wonderful book - The Making Of The Messiah, By Bill Rodway. Also the Book - Should I Have Trusted Him More? By John Gates, a wonderful book by a wonderful Christian. This contains many remarkable acts of the Lord. The preface is by Bill, a close friend of John's, and he warmly invites you all to read and enjoy this edifying book.
Listen to Bill's Sermons from your computer. 20th November Sept 2005 - 3 more added. Left Click any audio file below to start listening right now. Your Windows Media Player should automatically load and 'stream' the audio to your computer. Remember to turn your speakers on! Please allow a few moments for each audio lesson to buffer (load) into your windows media player. Alternatively, if you wish to download these audio teaching files to your own computer to listen anytime - Right Click on any audio file below, and select "Save Target As..." in the menu that appears.
Some audio files are long, so allow some time to download them all. However, they are truly amazing. Listening to how the Lord bi-located Bill (puts him in 2 places at once), many healings and constant prophetic insights is uplifting in the Lord. Give them your time - Bill has an incredible teaching ministry - expect the meat, not milk here (Heb 5 & 6). Those of you who know Bill & Pauline Turner will be more used to their unique ministry. In my experience, there are (sadly) few who reveal the character of our wonderful Lord and teach operation of the spiritual gifts as well as Bill. That's not to mention his outstanding biblical scholarship. Newcomers to this site are in for a treat!!!
If anyone has any more recordings from Bill, please contact me - I'll put them up, and promise to send you back your originals and a CD version. If anyone would like these collections of Bill's sermons, please get in touch and I'll be happy to sort that out! (There's a few more in the pipeline).

4. CHRIST'S CHALLENGE TO HIS CHURCH
5. HEALING FROM GOD, NATURAL HEALING, AND MEDICINE
The ministry of healing the sick presents a tremendous challenge to the spiritual condition of the Church; any false claims of real spirituality are exposed by the lack of a ministry to the sick. This is particularly so when viewed in the light of the healing ministry of Jesus and His early Church. We can be quite sure that the Lord Jesus desires to heal the sick just as much as He did when He walked this earth. Why, then, does His Church fail to fulfil His commission to heal the sick? Is not the Church criminally guilty in withholding the truth and experience of Divine healing? It is a great tragedy that such a wonderful Saviour has such poor adverts of His love and power, and that the tremendous desire of God to heal the sick is largely frustrated by a very imperfect Church. However, thank God for those Christians who have taken up the challenge to minister to the sick as Jesus did. The Head of the Church spent at least half of His time healing the sick, and His Church should desire to imitate His example. Divine healing is not faith healing, magnetic healing, hypnotism, or healing through spiritualist mediums. Divine healing takes place when we meet with Jesus Christ the healer, and with God our Father who, in His great love and grace, gives the children's bread of healing, even to those who are not His children. Mt.15v21-28. Lk.7v24-30. Christ's wonderful healing ministry was the manifestation of the Father's generous giving heart to needy mankind. Jn.5v19,30. 14v8-10.

The Second Coming Of Christ:
Since the first edition of this book was written in 1954, many significant world events have occurred, which indicate that our Lord's return is near. Mt.24v33. Most Christians agree that we are living in the spiritually perilous last days. 2Tim.3v1. Sadly, most Christians are ignorant about prophetic truth, either because they have received almost no teaching about it, or have been incorrectly taught and misled on the subject. Many are also ignorant about the armoury of spiritual gifts that God has provided for His Church for the extremely dangerous events that precede Christ's return. This ignorance is particularly dangerous in the light of our Lord's many warnings to, "beware," "watch and pray," and "take heed." Jesus warns us that the abounding iniquity of the last days will cause the "agape" love of many Christians to "wax cold." Mt.24v12. Lk.17v33. 18v1-8. In 1Tim.4v1., Paul also warns us; "Now the Spirit expressly says that in the latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils." "Depart," is "apostesontai," the future middle of "aphistemi," "to withdraw, to go away, or fall away, to become apostate." See Lk.8v13. and Heb.3v12. In 2Thes.2v3., Paul uses the noun "apostasia," which means "falling away, rebellion, apostasy," to speak of the rebellion against God and apostasy caused by Antichrist's evil career.

Did Jesus Have Spiritual Gifts At Nazareth? Did Jesus have spiritual gifts at Nazareth? Some would think that the consideration of this question is just idle speculation, and without any real value or Scriptural basis, however, the very opposite is true, for such a study demands the consideration of ALL of His wonderful holy life of love and zeal at Nazareth. Such meditation and contemplation is soul changing. It is only as we dwell upon the life of Jesus at Nazareth, that we can fully see the real Jesus, and His devotion to the Father, and His zeal to prepare for His ministry, and the way His resolute love for us compelled Him to procure our salvation. From the time that God the Father revealed to the child Jesus His purpose in life, Jesus was consumed by a desire to perfectly fulfil the Father's will in His life and ministry, and to purchase our salvation. Jesus looked upon the full partaking of our humanity, temptations and trials, and the procurement of our salvation, as an obligation and debt to be paid, "opheilen." Heb.2v17,18. Rom.8v1-4. 16v25,26. Rev,13v8. Titus.1v2. Most Christians seldom meditate upon our Lord's life at Nazareth, and are greatly impoverished as a result. Words cannot express the glory and victory of our Lord's childhood, teenage years, and work life, and His dedicated prayer life and preparation for ministry at Nazareth during these years. If we fail to meditate upon and comprehend this, we deprive ourselves of a life changing insight into His incomparable greatness, loving kindness, goodness, integrity, zeal, and victory over carping criticism, sin and evil during His 30 years of daily living at Nazareth. Jesus victoriously lived out the Sermon on the Mount in the notorious spiritual black spot of Nazareth, before He preached it. Jn.1v46. Let us consider the full glory of the life of Jesus at Nazareth and be enthralled and transfigured by it. 2Cor.3v18.
