Who is the Holy Spirit and how does the Spirit come to be in
relation to the Father and the Son? What is the mission of the
Spirit and where does it come from? Chris Holmes takes up the
questions surrounding the Spirit's procession and mission with the
help of three of the church's greatest teachers-Augustine, Thomas
Aquinas, and Karl Barth. Drawing on their engagements with the
Fourth Gospel, Holmes presents an account of the Spirit's identity,
origin, and acts, to show how the acts of the Spirit derive from
the Spirit's life in relation to Father and Son-and the extent to
which the Spirit's mission testifies to the Spirit's origin. Holmes
presents a way forward for pneumatology. Housed within the doctrine
of the Trinity, pneumatology's joyful task is to describe the
Spirit's acts among us in light of their source in the Spirit's
acts in God. The end of this inquiry is our beatitude-knowledge of
the Trinity that yields to love of the Trinity. -ABOUT THE SERIES-
New Studies in Dogmatics seeks to retrieve the riches of Christian
doctrine for the sake of contemporary theological renewal.
Following in the tradition of G. C. Berkouwer's Studies in
Dogmatics, this series provides thoughtful, concise, and readable
treatments of major theological topics, expressing the biblical,
creedal, and confessional shape of Christian doctrine for a
contemporary evangelical audience. The editors and contributors
share a common conviction that the way forward in constructive
systematic theology lies in building upon the foundations laid in
the church's historic understanding of the Word of God as professed
in its creeds, councils, and confessions, and by its most trusted
teachers.
