My new book is now available. In North America, you can purchase it directly from the publisher here. If you’re in Australia, it’s available online from Pro Ecclesia bookshop here.
Before I wrote Get to Know the Holy Spirit, I asked those who follow my Facebook author page for some questions they’d like to see answered in such a book. Many responded. I noted all the questions and tried to work them in. Here’s a list of some of the questions you’ll find answered:
- How did the Holy Spirit work differently in the Old Testament versus the New Testament?
- What does it mean in 1 Samuel 6:14 that the Spirit of the LORD departed from King Saul?
- Why did the Spirit choose to be represented by a dove or a fire or tongues of fire?
- What is the sin against the Holy Spirit or blaspheming the Holy Spirit?
- What should we think about stories of miraculous healing today?
- May we call on the Holy Spirit in song and prayer?
- Why does the Nicene Creed call him “the Lord and Giver of life”?
- Does the Holy Spirit give continuing revelation today?
- How can you know if the Holy Spirit has given you the new birth?
- Do baptized covenant children also need regeneration by the Holy Spirit?
- Is there a difference between the speaking in tongues in the Bible and Pentecostal speaking in tongues today?
- What’s the significance of Pentecost for missions?
