The Holy Spirit (Global Christian Library Series)

This book is one of a series entitled The Global Christian Library, and is being published by a partnership between Langham Literature (incorporating the Evangelical Literature Trust) and Inter-Varsity Press. Langham Literature is a programme of the Langham Partnership International. ???The vision for The Global Christian Library has arisen from the knowledge that during the twentieth century a dramatic shift in the Christian centre of gravity took place. There are now many more Christians in Africa, Asia and Latin America than there are in Europe and North America. ??It is impossible to love God and at the same time be dispassionate about the study of God. Deep devotion to Jesus and an all-consuming desire to see his glory fill the earth should fuel the passion of anyone who ventures to write about God and help illuminate other people's understanding of God and his ways. Few themes call for as much of a blending of mind and heart as that of the Holy Spirit. The spate of literature on the topic in recent years, while indicating growth in interest, also reflects sometimes divergent often strongly disputed perspectives on various aspects of the Holy Spirit's person and work. ?Contents???1.
