What is the meaning of the Holy Spirit's activity in Luke-Acts, and what are its implications for today? Roger Stronstad offers a cogent and thought-provoking study of Luke as a charismatic theologian whose understanding of the Spirit was shaped wholly by his understanding of Jesus and the nature of the early church. Stronstad locates Luke's pneumatology in the historical background of Judaism and views Luke as an independent theologian who makes a unique contribution to the pneumatology of the New Testament. This work challenges traditional Protestants to reexamine the impact of Pentecost and explores the Spirit's role in equipping God's people for the unfinished task of mission. The second edition has been revised and updated throughout and includes a new foreword by Mark Allan Powell.

"The Life of David" by Alexander Maclaren is a thorough and incisive analysis of one of biblical history's most memorable figures. Maclaren's study digs into the life, character, and spiritual journey of King David, ancient Israel's beloved and complex ruler. Maclaren's writing is distinguished by a genuine regard for the biblical story and a rigorous attention to detail. He takes readers on a riveting trip through David's life, from his humble beginnings as a shepherd to his rise as a warrior, poet, and, eventually, the acclaimed king of Israel. Maclaren presents profound spiritual and moral insights throughout the book, pulling lessons from David's accomplishments and disappointments. He emphasizes David's psalms, emphasizing their enduring spiritual value. The premise that David's life serves as a strong metaphor of God's grace, forgiveness, and the possibility of spiritual growth and restoration is central to Maclaren's narrative. He depicts David as a highly flawed yet genuinely contrite character whose unwavering faith in God defines his legacy.

Can we know what Jesus was truly like during His time on earth? A first-century physician set out to gather eyewitness testimony of the life, teaching, and ministry of Jesus Christ. The result is a close-up account of a compassionate Savior on His journey to redeem His people. In this volume, Dr. R.C. Sproul traces the record of Jesus' life as told by Luke, the man considered by some to be one of the greatest historians of the ancient world. Dr. Sproul shows that this gospel is for believers and skeptics alike, written so "that you may have certainty" (Luke 1:4) about the Son of Man who came to seek and save the lost.

This word of encouragement which exhorts to both cheerfulness and courage is often upon Christ's lips. It is only once employed in the Gospels by any other than He. If we throw together the various instances in which He thus speaks we may get a somewhat striking view of the hindrances to such a temper of bold buoyant cheerfulness which the world presents and of the means for securing it which Christ provides.

The author praises Gratian’s zeal for instruction in the Faith, and speaks lowly of his own merits. Taught of God Himself, the Emperor stands in no need of human instruction; yet this his devoutness prepares the way to victory. The task appointed to the author is difficult: in the accomplishment whereof he will be guided not so much by reason and argument as by authority, especially that of the Nicene Council.
