When New Testament writers mention God's pledge to grant his Holy Spirit, their words depict more than just a simple promise to make available his comfort. Rather, they describe a nonrefundable down payment on all the blessings of heaven and a commitment that God will never abandon us until he has completed his work in our lives. In 'The Person and Work of the Holy Spirit', Donald T. Williams presents a comprehensive study of the Holy Spirit, helping readers answer their most pressing questions about the Holy Spirit, including: ÓIs the Holy Spirit working today? ÓHow can I recognize gifts of the Holy Spirit in my life?Ó ÓWhat about speaking in tongues?Ó ÓHow do I know my life is sealed by the Holy Spirit?Ó ÓHow can I identify true assurance of salvation from the Holy Spirit?Ó With its readable style, chapter summaries, ideas for practical application, and questions for further reading, this book is an excellent guide for serious personal or group study of the Holy Spirit. If you are considering serious study of the Holy Spirit - at any level - start with this book.

"The difference between a religion of mere letter and form and one of life and power lies in knowing the Holy Spirit." It was Dr. R. A. Torrey who pointed that out and showed Christians that the Holy Spirit is a Person to be worshiped, Someone who would take hold of you and use you as He transformed you from day to day. Can you, or can any Christian, go far in the Christian life without giving time and thought to the third Person of the Godhead? Obviously not, for the Holy Spirit takes the things of Christ and shows them to us, who makes the practical application of Bible knowledge in the outworking of Christian living. He alone can make Christian theory into life and deeds. Throughout this book, Dr. Pache will direct us into thinking again about who the Holy Spirit is, what He did before Pentecost, and what He has been doing since then in the lives of men. What place does the Holy Spirit have in the service of the Christian worker, and what will be His ministry in the future? The Person and Work of the Holy Spirit answers these questions and others concerning conviction, baptism, filling, indwelling, and gifts of the Spirit.

Giving a Biblical and mystical veneration of the Holy Spirit, this work gives the different ways that the Holy Spirit has made himself known and the type of works he does here on Earth. Torrey gives a well thought out overview of the theological thinking behind the third person of the Godhead but this is only introductory.

Before one can correctly understand the work of the Holy Spirit, he must first of all know the Spirit Himself. A frequent source of error and fanaticism about the work of the Holy Spirit is the attempt to study and understand His work without first of all coming to know Him as a Person. It is of the highest importance from the standpoint of worship that we decide whether the Holy Spirit is a Divine Person, worthy to receive our adoration, our faith, our love, and our entire surrender to Himself, or whether it is simply an influence emanating from God or a power or an illumination that God imparts to us. If the Holy Spirit is a person, and a Divine Person, and we do not know Him as such, then we are robbing a Divine Being of the worship and the faith and the love and the surrender to Himself which are His due.

A critical work into the working and theology of the most mysterious person of the holy Trinity, the Holy Spirit. Many times Christians recognize but do not focus on the Holy Spirit even though He is the most active person of the Godhood in our world today. This work goes to correct that and delves into Scripture to reveal to us how he works and what he is like so that we can properly revere him as Almighty God.
