Summary: What an eye-opener!
Review: Dr. Cho so clearly desribes such basic truths about prayer and believing, and how the Word, in the presence of the Holy Spirit, does what it is purposed to do. He takes you through each step he took in his ministry, from praying for a bicycle - a certain bicycle - and God's answer to that prayer, to building his ministry and believing for large numbers of souls. The ministry in his teachings has quickened my spirit, and I can't wait to apply these methods in my personal life and use them to help others.

Summary: I wondered how Cho could have so much success....
Review: Having heard of Cho's success, with a church of more than 800,000 Christians, I wondered how he did it. What was his gimmick? Clever doctrine? A Feel-Good message? I was prepared not to like him much. After reading of his heart for the lost, his love for Christ, his unabashed humility, his humor, I could see he was very unlike me...in all the ways that matter most to God. Cho is a man of prayer and devotion to the Lord. His life of sacrifice, obedience, and trust in the Lord reveal the secret to his success: Jesus Christ.

I am grateful for both the minister and his message... This is a book that will draw you closer to the heavenly realm.

Summary: A "How To" Use Your Faith Book!
Review: The Bible tells us that each of us has been given a measure of faith. Dr. Cho teaches in this book that it has been given to be used. He then proceeds to show how to use faith in the practical world of daily life. He describes the incubation process of "things hoped for" as consisting of: 1) envisioning a clear-cut objective 2) having a burning desire 3) praying for assurance and 4) speaking the word. Cho discusses the importance of what goes on in the heart and mind. The incubation takes place in one's thoughts. On page 31 he ties this into verbalizing what is in one's heart by noting "your word is the material which the Holy Spirit uses to create."
This mysterious fourth dimension is the dimension of the spirt. Dr. Cho teaches that it governs the material dimension. "Visions and dreams are the language of the fourth dimension, and the Holy Spirit communicates through them" (p. 44). He points out that both good and evil are created in that mysterious dimension. He goes on to bring into his discussion various passages from the Bible about desires and dreams.
Perfectionism is addressed. Dr. Cho says God does not use you because you are completely faultless, but because you have faith.
This book is solidly based on the teachings of Jesus Christ. Dr. Cho has the results to verify that he has practiced what he teaches.

Summary: Pray with Faith IN GOD & Faith OF GOD
Review: The book is about how to live with prayer guided by Bible.
The metaphor of fourth dimension is apt one. In one context, a couple phones the author asking for blessing for divorce whom he has married;he prays in the night;sees the fact that they are healed; next day, when he meets the couple, each one starts to blame the other;exhort him "Don't pray for reunion";He knows that he seen in the fourth dimension their reunion. Within few minutes, they weep and find themselves reunited. In another context, he shows how once a rich couple started to give seed faith( a donation), they got themsleves encouraged to claim healing for their son, who was suffering for three years. He explains the relevance of both faith IN GOD and faith OF GOD, in getting miracles by prayer. His chapter on GOD'S address is very relevant for the oriental context. He also exhorts how sin of hatred,sin of fear, sin of inferiority and sin of guilt has to be got rid for effective prayerful life and how they can be done, with a lot of interesting examples. He also give a vivid picture of his own evolution of Chrisitian faith.
The message is:
Look at JESUS and walk on water .
Be a student of ANDREW school.

Summary: Challenging and Thought Provoking
Review: This book is written to increase ones faith and boldness in prayer. Some of his approaches to prayer are challenging both in technique and from a theological perspective. I cannot say that I agree with all he says, but he does have success on his side. Furthermore, he causes one to stretch their own view of what is possible. And, this is a good thing!

Summary: Essential for Any Prayer Warrior
Review: This compact book may very well change your prayer life forever.
In a simple, easy-to-understand narrative, Dr. Cho explains the
critical steps for effective prayer. I was immensely blessed
by his explanation of Logos vs. Rhema, which I have not read
anywhere else. For anyone who ever wondered, "In the Bible,
God said I can do this, but how come I can't?", this is the
book for you. God bless you all.

Summary: One of the most Amazing books ever written...Volume II...
Review: Volume II is basically a better written and improved version of Volume I, and it really is amazing! It's the more interdenominational book of the two as well, and I prefer it partly for this reason. It's definitely different from Vol 1; it should have its own listing here in Amazon! Dr. David (Paul) Yonggi Cho is easily one of the most inspirational people in my life, and the Fourth Dimension Volume II is the reason why.

As another reader has mentioned, Cho's secret to success is simple: a dynamically impacting, spiritual relationship with Jesus Christ!
The chapters are: 1. The Holy Spirit and You, 2. The Fourth Dimension, 3. The Renewing of the Mind, 4. The Creative Ability of Your Words, and 5. Love: The Motivational Force. The first printing was in 1983; it's currently carried by Bridge-Logos Publishing.
It's the creativity, perception, intelligence, and spiritual motivation in this book that make it such an incredibly effective, yet still simple description of the Christian life today. Highly recommended!
