Baptism With The Spirit

Description

Some Christians emphasize doctrine, others experience. Martyn  Lloyd-Jones emphasized both. Marrying a Reformed understanding of biblical  theology to a passionate desire for a deeper experience of God, he urged  all Christians to seek bapti ism with the Holy Spirit. This he viewed as a  direct sealing of the assurance of God's love to a believer's consciousness  which results in a heightened awareness of God, brings joy to worship, and  adds a new dimension to the church's witness. This book examines the sources of Dr Lloyd-Jones's teaching in the writings  of the Puritans and later theologians such as Jonathan Edwards, and  compares it with others views of the work of the Holy Spirit which are  currently held. It is an important contribution to the ongoing debate.
