a must read

This is the best book on the Holy Spirit I have read, which is one of fifteen or more books. The teachings are totally Biblical with scripture references to support every teaching. This is a must read for anyone who wants to learn what the scrpturs teach of the person and work of the Holy Spirit, past, present and future.

Excellent

This is a must read for anyone looking for a biblical, honest look at the Holy Spirit and His workings. Definitely should not be left out of any study on spiritual gifts, pnumatology, or any of the specific works of the Holy Spirit - baptism, illumination, inspiration, indwelling, anointing etc. I was blessed and instructed by reading this.

One of the most important books for today's Christian.

With all the talk, differences, discussions and confusion about the Holy Spirit, this book is a classic for any believer. Written by Dr. John F. Walvoord, the esteemed former president of Dallas Theological Seminary and acknmowledge scholar, this book can be trusted to have Biblical answers. It is based totally on the Word of God and not on man's experience. The hard issuses about the Holy Spirit are squarely faced. Answers people have longed to get will be found in this book. It not only is Biblically helpful but spiritually blesses and encourages the one who reads it. It has stood the test of time and is as up to date as tomorrows newspaper. It is a must reading for lhe one who really wants to know the Person and work of this wonderful Person, the Holy Spirit. It is so reasonable and understandable that new Christians can profit from it easily.
