Product Description
by Earl D. Radmacher (Author), Charles R. Swindoll (Contribution by), Stephen R. Lewis (Foreword by)
The Christian world has shown a remarkable interest in the Holy Spirit in recent decades. A host of articles and books have been published to define the Spirit's ministry in the church today. The charismatic movement has focused attention upon the sign gifts, leading believers to wonder if they have all of the Spirit they should have, and to think that maybe they've been missing something.
Dr. Earl Radmacher discusses the Holy Spirit's ministry today, pointing out that he was sent to focus our attention upon Christ, not upon Himself. Therefore, Christians can expect from the Holy Spirit:
- Power for Witness
- Protection for the Church
- Provision of Gifts
- Possession of the Body Member
Sincere Bible-believing Christians who want clear, scriptural teaching on this subject will benefit greatly from reading this book. It answers questions about the Spirit that have been raised today, and it explains the relationship between the Holy Spirit and Christ, who is the Head of the church.
