A must read for pentecostals and non-pentecostals alike

This is a book I can highly recommend. I believe that whatever your beliefs on the issue of tongues you owe it to yourself to read this book. I have been a Christian since 1975, and was taught against tongues in the first couple years of my Christian walk. I was well versed in, why tongues was not for today. Then in 1977 through a chain of events I ended up going to an Assembly of God Church. I was somewhat cautious of them as I knew they were of the Pentecostal persuasion. But from the very first service I attended I noticed an excitement in worship and over God's word (Bible) from the pastor and the members, that I had not seen in the other churches I attended. I really liked the church, the people, and the powerful preaching from the Bible, but, I still didn't agree with this "tongues" thing. Anyway, one Sunday evening before service, in August 1977, I went to the church altar alone and was on my knees in prayer, looking at the cross and thanking Jesus for dying for me. Then I asked the LORD to fill me 100% with His Holy Spirit (with or without tongues). So there alone at that altar I lifted that prayer up to God. Just me and Jesus at that altar. There was no expectation from me of speaking in tongues. I was NOT seeking tongues, but to be filled with the Holy Spirit. Almost immediately from the time I lifted that prayer to the LORD, to my surprise, I instantly started praying in tongues. As I did, I felt a release in my worship to the LORD and also such a fresh appreciation for the Cross (that Jesus would die for me). A river of tears of joy flowed from my eyes. That being said, I believe from that day I had a fresh desire to see others come to Christ and to grow in their Christian walk. So, do yourself a favor, and read this book. I believe God can use it to touch your life. It is well written, it shows the authors own battles with the "tongues issue" and gives a good scriptural basis for "speaking in tongues".

Excelent on many levels

This book is an excellent treatment of the topic of the Baptism Of The Holy Spirt, with a special focus on tongues. It covers the scriptural basis as well as the authors own experience. One of the best books I've ever read, it's smooth and engaging while at the same time being hugely informative. I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in Pentecostal theology and history as well as as anyone who doesn't believe in the gifts of the Holy Spirt or that tongues are for today.I was greatly skeptical when I was a new believer, regarding The Baptism of The Holy Spirit, I thought perhaps it was totally our right bananas, I was down right hostile to the idea. I only wish I had read this book sooner to save myself the time I spent doubting.You can almost read it in one sitting it's so good, that is if you can stay sitting while you read it! I would have liked to have seen the scriptures printed in-line with the text rather than referenced by number to the index in the back however that would effect the amazing flow of the book.

Amazing

I found an original edition of this book in the depths of my college's library and took it home on vacation. I started reading on the way there and could not stop! Well, I had to pause every couple pages to share it with my friend because it was so interesting, but you get the point. I highly recommend this to anyone at all interested in the Holy Spirit and tongues.

WOW

I was going to read this book for myself, but after a few pages I was getting really excited and my non-Christian friend came in, so I told her she had to read the first few pages at least. She read half of the book before she put it down! Amazing. Unbelief in the supernatural power of God is a big stumbling block to the secular mind. This book helps unravel that

A "Must Read!" for every believer.

This book is one of the best books I have ever read to lead one to the Holy Spirit. I personally have purchased 20 to 30 copies over the years and gave them to friends who have questions on the Holy Spirit and the phenomena of "Speaking in Tongues". The author, seeking answers, searches to find what the phenomena, Speaking in Tongues, is all about. The journey takes you through an adventure to finding the 3rd part of the Trinity, the Holy Spirit. This literary work of art grips your heart as you realize the author is asking the questions that you have always asked. It is not a theologically dry work but one that keeps you wondering what is next. Enjoyment is a must in my reading and I truly enjoyed this one. I continue to enjoy it also because I've read it many times.
