Excerpt from The Holy Spirit and Other Spirits When Elijah was fleeing for his life from the face of Jezebel, who threatened his destruc tion for havmg killed the priests of Baal, he sat down under a juniper tree and requested for himself that he might die (1 Kings 19: 4) but God was not done with him And as he lay and slept under a juniper tree, behold, then an angel touched him, and said unto him, Arise and eat. And he looked, and behold, there was a cake baken on the coals, and a cruise of water at his head. And he did eat and drink, and laid him down again. And the angel of the Lord came again the second time, and touched him, and said, Arise and eat; because the journey is too great for thee. And he arose, and did eat and drink, and went in the strength of that meat forty days and forty nights unto Horeb the mount of God. 1 Kings 19: 5-8. When the host sent by the king of Syria sur rounded the city where Elisha and his servant lodged, intending to do them harm, the young man, his servant, was greatly alarmed: but Elisha assured him that there were many more with them than with the king of Syria. And after praying the Lord to open the eyes of his servant he saw and behold the mountain was16 m holy spirit m1) other spirits.

"And when he the Holy Spirit is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment." John 16:8. True Bible conviction is a blessing to any one. While for the present it seems far from joyous, yet if given heed to, afterwards it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness. Who has not felt the gentle reproof of the Holy Spirit knocking at the heart's door and pointing to the better way? So long as man is iu the reach of the Holy Spirit, he will ever be reproved for the slightest wrong: but if the re.proof is not heeded, each call will grow fainter. How very careful we should be when reproved by the Spirit, for without his gentle wooing man could never find God. The Spirit does not always operate upon the heart independent of means. "Afflictions, though severe they seem, Are oft in mercy sent: They stopped the prodigal's career And caused him to repent." David said, "Before I was afflicted I went astray: but now have I kept thy word." Psa. 119: 67. While it is far from the right way to neglect God until afflictions overtake us, yet there are many who never think of God in health, who when affliction cometh will call on him for help. It is true, however, that a great many who seek God in trouble, forsake him in prosperity. The surest and best way is to seek God while in the bloom of health, -under the direct conviction of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit often convicts people through the healing of the sick, as was the case at Lydda and Saron. "And it came to pass, as Peter passed throughout all quarters, he came down also to the saints which dwelt at Lydda. And there he found a certain man named Eneas, ...

The Personality of the Holy Spirit (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from The Personality of the Holy Spirit The Religion of the Incarnation made its best gift to men when out of the perfected and glo rified manhood of Jesus the Holy Spirit was given. Another mighty Personality was now come who alone could explain the personality Of Christ, and with Christ at once as his mas terpiece and theme conform us to his image and make us complete in him. To deny the person ality of the Holy Spirit is to know not whether there be a Holy Ghost. The impersonal becomes vague and shadowy and unreal. The personal bears witness with our spirits. We are no more conscious Of ourselves than of Him in whom we find our best self, our true self. Nor can any man come to himself without coming to God. Man finds himself only as he finds God, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Holy Spirit of God (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from The Holy Spirit of God The prominence and emphasis given in the New Testa ment to the Holy Spirit are at once the cause and the Vindica tion of these utterances, and we may legitimately argue that the importance of the subject can be rightly measured by the place given to it. Other doctrines of great importance, as, for example, those of the Church and the Sacraments, do not obtain anything like the notice given in the New Testament to the Holy Spirit. No one can fail to be impressed with the frequency, variety, fulness and promi nemce of the references to the Spirit all through the New Testament Scriptures. Instead of stopping with the Resurrection, the New Testament leads on to the subject of the Holy Spirit and His work.

The Revelation of the Holy Spirit (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from The Revelation of the Holy Spirit Goethe says wisely that the battle of faith and infidelity is the one momentous issue in human history; all other issues are subordinate to this. But faith in one point of religion facilitates faith in all religion. Truth is a whole, and every part of it is indissolubly linked to other parts. It is possible, then, that a plea for the doctrine of the Holy Spirit may possess some slight value in Christian Apolo getics. If it were so in the instance of this book, that would be my deepest joy, my best reward. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Person and Ministry of the Holy Spirit (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from The Person and Ministry of the Holy Spirit While the writer was evangelizing in Europe, he received a letter from his friend, A. C. Dixon, of Baltimore, requesting his help in organizing and supervising a Conference in that city. On my return home Mr. Dixon visited me, and together we sketched the programme of the subjects, nominated speakers, and arranged concerning dates and details. On Mr. Dixon's return to Baltimore he consulted with the pastors, who, with him, formed a committee to prosecute the work in the city. To this earnest committee is due, under God, the great success which crowned the Convention. The pleasant task of correspondence with speakers and adjustment of subjects fell to my lot, as on other similar occasions. Many brethren, originally appointed to present the subjects, were detained in various ways, but others cheerfully undertook the office of teacher. The promise, "Them that honour Me I will honour," sustained our faith, and God permitted our ears to hear marvelous things throughout this four days' meeting.

The Gospel of the Holy Spirit


Book Description

Excerpt from The Gospel of the Holy Spirit: The Love of the Spirit; Romans XV. 30 There is a Gospel of the Holy Spirit as well as a Gospel of Jesus Christ and neither is complete without the other. This Gospel of the Spirit is to be found in the New Testament, and is to be read between its lines and being unread, the Gospel of Christ is only half read. Man has a body, but is a Spirit. The sp1r1t is immortal. It is this that worships, having per sonal relations with the Holy Spirit. The highest thing in man is love, and the summary of the Divine character is this, God is Love. This means that the Father is Love and the Son is Love and the Holy Spirit is Love. The fact, however, that the Holy Spirit is Love equally with the Father and the Son, and is doing a work for us which shows the same Divine Love, is little known and less appreciated by the Church.
