North was born in London England in 1913. As a young man he became aware that the Lord was calling him into the work of the ministry. At timely stages the Lord placed folk in his path who were able to direct him into the truth of heart purity and a more expansive understanding of the ministry of the Holy Spirit. He held pastorates in Kent and Bradford. By the late 1960s, following a significant period of ministry in Liverpool, he began a more itinerant ministry. This led him to many parts of the world, and occupied him until well into his eighties. His powerful preaching and the unique sense of the Lord's presence, which seemed to brood over his meetings, were always intensely challenging.\r\nThe true secret of his remarkable ministry stemmed from his personal communion with the Lord Jesus. To him, 'entering the holiest' was not merely a theological concept; it was a distinct spiritual reality - and the central feature of his spiritual life. It was here, in the place of worship, that his revelatory ministry found its source. He preached from understanding and conviction. He was never the echo of another, nor did he take on board the ebb and flow of various contemporary emphases. He was not a man of 'books'; he soaked himself in Scripture and allowed it to saturate his heart and mind. Truly, this is a man who has lifted up a standard for the people. Mr North went to be with the Lord on 29th April 2003, shortly after his ninetieth birthday.", "_scripture": [] }, { "title": "How To Be Perfect", "url": "http:\/\/sermonindex.net\/SID23779", "size": "0", "format": "mp3", "scripture": "", "topic": "Perfection", "description": "", "download": "http:\/\/sermonindex.net\/SID23779-download", "preacher_name": "Walter Wilson", "preacher_image": "", "preacher_description": "", "_scripture": [] }, { "title": "Let Us Go On", "url": "http:\/\/sermonindex.net\/SID0052", "size": "0", "format": "mp3", "scripture": "Hebrews 2:1", "topic": "Perfection", "description": "This message was delivered on 04\/01\/1959.", "download": "http:\/\/sermonindex.net\/SID0052-download", "preacher_name": "T.
