42136: The Holy Spirit The Holy Spirit
By Billy Graham / Thomas Nelson


Exciting, revolutionary power is available exclusively to you as a Christian. It's the supernatural power to transform human nature, to enable you to be the salt and light to your world, to help you face any crisis, and to bring about a dramatic but peaceful revolution in those around you. It's the power residing within you, a gift from God --- the power of the Holy Spirit. With prayerful reverence and focused wisdom, Billy Graham puts an understandable face on this mysterious third Person of the Trinity. The Holy Spirit will open your eyes anew to see how the Spirit can transform your life and give you the power "to be truly good" and "to live victoriously."
 
57701: Christianity 101 Christianity 101
By Gilbert Bilezikian / Zondervan


Cheer up! You don't have to have a thousand-dollar vocabulary to grasp the priceless truths of Christianity. Christianity 101 bridges the gap between biblical scholarship and people who want to understand the Christian faith.

This book presents eight basic doctrines of Christianity---the Bible, God, Christ, Holy Spirit, Human Beings, Redemption, The Church, and The Last Things---in clear, simple language that gives seasoned Christians a fresh understanding of the Bible and its teachings and puts new Christians on familiar terms with Christian doctrine. Gilbert Bilezikian does not shape his analysis of these doctrines in the worn-out, rationalistic categories of older systematic theologies, but in vibrant, dynamic language designed to communicate biblical truths to contemporary believers.


31706: Paul, the Spirit, and the People of God Paul, the Spirit, and the People of God
By Gordon D. Fee / Hendrickson Publishers

In this thought provoking book, Gordon Fee deals primarily with the presence of the Holy Spirit in the individual life of the believer and in the church. He has redefined the terms of the discussion of the Holy Spirit in a fresh and passionate way, and gives us invitation to read the words of Paul in the New Testament anew. He examines the presence of the Holy Spirit in the Old Testament and shows how God dwelt amongst His people and how the presence departed and was renewed again, and shows us how to experience the presence of God in our lives.
 
Empowered Evangelicals: Bringing Together the Best of the Evangelical and Charismatic Worlds (Paperback)
by Rich Nathan (Author), Ken Wilson (Author)


After years of witnessing the sometimes rancorous controversy between the Evangelical and Pentecostal camps, authors Rich Nathan and Ken Wilson suggest it's way past time to recognize that there's really only one camp. It is unnecessary to choose between the biblical emphasis of the great Evangelical tradition and the spiritual vitality of the Pentecostal and Charismatic traditions, insist the authors. In fact, a new breed of believers called "Empowered Evangelicals" has arisen to combine the best elements of both traditions. Empowered Evangelicals examines the teaching and practice of empowered Evangelical churches and shows both Pentecostals and Evangelicals how to combine the best elements of both congregations.

Baptism: Christ's Act in the Church
By: Laurence Stookey
Baptism is a gift from God to the church. If it is not, why make such a fuss about it? We may as well abolish the practice and thus put an end to the confusion and competing notions that surround it.
