In what is perhaps the most significant study of Pentecostal Theology to date, Steven Jack Land offers a constructive interpretation and issues a call for the re-vision of the Pentecostal tradition. Viewing the first ten years as the heart, not the infancy of its spirituality, Land identifies the theological heart of the tradition as the five-fold gospel that proclaims, 'Jesus is Savior, Sanctifier, Holy Ghost Baptizer, Healer, and Soon Coming King'. Land's work recovers the crucial importance of the tradition's Wesleyan, Holiness, and nineteenth-century revivalist-restorationist roots. ...

To have found God and still seek Him is a love paradox, rejected by the too-easy-satisfied religious person, but justified by the offspring of the flaming heart in happy experience. This heavenly contradiction was expressed by Saint Bernard of Clairvaux in a musical four-line poem that will be quickly grasped by every worshiping soul.

¿Tiene alguna importancia que el Dios que los cristianos adoran sea en sí mismo un Dios trino: Padre, Hijo y Espíritu Santo? ¿Tiene esta verdad fundamental del cristianismo algún efecto en la comunión personal del creyente con Dios? John Owen afirma que sí, que no hay algo que impacte más nuestra adoración y comunión con Dios que el hecho de que Dios sea un Dios Trino. Owen desafía a todos los creyentes a reconocer el ministerio que Dios el Padre, Dios el Hijo y Dios el Espíritu Santo tienen en sus vidas. Este segundo volumen desarrolla la segunda parte de la comunión con el ...

No denominational systems. Just the text of Scripture allowed to speak for itself. Through 100 concise answers and deeper doctrinal examinations, this book confronts key Pentecostal and Charismatic claims, including the modern practice of tongues, the “second blessing,” ...

You Have Access to the Same Holy Spirit as Jesus! Many Christians are missing out on the abundant life Jesus promised. They are busy, yet bored. Serving, but not satisfied.

In Spirit-Filled Jesus, Pastor Vlad Savchuk explores six ways Jesus encountered and engaged the Spirit of God so that from His example, you'll see and understand how life with the Spirit was meant to be lived. • Learn to relate to the Holy Spirit as a person. • ...

¿Sigue hablando Dios hoy en día? ¿Sigue actuando Dios como lo hacía en los «tiempos bíblicos»? ¿Sigue actuando su poder? ¿Se puede reducir a Dios a una simple teología, o es Él personal y cercano? ¿Se puede seguir experimentando la presencia y el poder del Espíritu Santo? En un mundo lleno de sustitutos engañosos y experiencias espirituales falsas, es crucial comprender la verdad. La verdad es que Dios, a través del Espíritu Santo, mora en ti y te da poder para vivir una vida sobrenatural. Cuando Jesús caminó sobre la tierra, el Espíritu Santo vivía y descansaba solo en ...

Prophets have always been God's covenant lawyers. Under the Old Covenant, they came as God's lawyers to prosecute his case against his covenant partner, Israel. Now, in the New Covenant, they are still God's covenant lawyers, but the covenant has changed. Instead of pointing out guilt, sin, and condemnation, the New Covenant lawyer's job is to point to the New Covenant, to declare, "You are released from shame; you are forgiven; you are free!"

The person to whom I had addressed the three books entitled De Peccatorum Meritis et Remissione, in which I carefully discussed also the baptism of infants, informed me, when acknowledging my communication, that he was much disturbed because I declared it to be possible that a man might be without sin, if he wanted not the will, by the help of God, although no man either had lived, was living, or would live in this life so perfect in righteousness.

All believers can have powerful divine encounters with the Spirit - not as isolated events but as a lifestyle in which: the supernatural realm is your greatest reality; Jesus becomes real in you; and you are commissioned to demonstrate God’s miraculous power. To experience divine encounters, you need to have a strong understanding of who the Holy Spirit is. Apostle Guillermo Maldonado clears up doubts and false concepts about the Spirit while providing striking testimonies of people transformed by their supernatural encounters.

In 1 Corinthians chapter 12 the apostle Paul writes: “Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I do not want you to be ignorant.” Sadly, today many Christians are poorly equipped to understand what the Bible has to say about the Holy Spirit. Throughout the Old Testament we see the revealed power of God referred to as the “Spirit of God” (at creation, anointing prophets, etc.). Yet clearly the Holy Spirit is more than just the force of God, he is a person. In the New Testament Jesus refers to the Holy Spirit as the third person of the Triune God.

Through this focus, this book offers detailed help for those who sense a need for the breath of life and the supernatural lift afforded through the wind of the Spirit.

Absolute Surrender reflects Murray’s longing for a closer walk with Christ, and it calls us to a life of holiness and virtue, empowered not by our own strength but by the indwelling Holy Spirit.

In this revolutionary work poised for a Second Reformation, Laudat draws out new definitions of God, angels, miracles, sanctification, revival, prophecy, Spirit-baptism, evangelism, Pentecost, visions, testing the spirits, the human soul, election, time, matter, and Genesis-creation. This is the first book that successfully: (1) Uncovers how God became man, (2) Resolves the Problem of Evil, (3) Shows a way to take election-passages at face value (i.e. monergistically) without the evil Calvinistic double-predestination; (4) Penetrates the mystery of how God regenerates, sanctifies, and ...

In Overflowing with the Holy Spirit, author Pat Harrison teaches about the dual role of the Holy Spirit in your life - to establish you first in the indwelling and then in the outpouring. The working of the Holy Spirit within matures you in holiness and oneness with Jesus. Then the outpouring comes upon you with power, ability, efficiency, and might to bless others. Understanding the two intertwined facets will help you walk in the fullness of both - until you're overflowing with the Spirit in everyday life.

From a strictly biblical perspective, the answer is clear. 'Yes and No.' Everybody who has received the Holy Spirit speaks in tongues as a sign. But not everybody also operates in the gift of tongues. In other words, in the bible, we find two types of speaking in tongues. - The accompanying sign of speaking in tongues, according to Jesus in Mark 16:17: "And these signs shall follow those who believe ... in my name ... they will speak with new tongues ..." - And the gift of tongues, according to Paul in 1 Corinthians 12:10-11: "To one is given ... to another different kinds of tongues .. one...

After years of discontent, feeling a lack of the Holy Spirit’s power and believing for healings and miracles, Frankie Mazzapica was fighting insomnia one night when he decided to look for a book that would put him to sleep. He downloaded Power from God by Charles Finney. However, rather than sleeping, he stayed up and kept reading. Frankie says Finney’s book made him realize that “power from on high” is something that God wants for every believer. He decided to write Your Divine Invitation to help Christians everywhere discover that power.
