The times have long passed when Pentecostals were viewed as
Protestantism's untouchables. Today, the shock waves from Azusa
Street have influenced countless Evangelicals worldwide. But if
dialogue between Pentecostals and Evangelicals has awakened within
the latter a thirst for the power of God's Spirit, it has
challenged Pentecostals to examine their theology more deeply in
the light of his Word. Just how firm is the biblical foundation on
which they stand? Spirit and Power provides a cutting-edge look at
Pentecostal theology. It addresses the concern expressed by its
authors and echoed throughout charismatic churches today: "Although
our Pentecostal forefathers intuitively grasped the correlation
between the reality they experienced and the promise of Acts 1:8,
they did not always articulate their theology in a manner that was
convincing to other believers committed to the authority of
Scripture." In response, theologians William and Robert Menzies
explore Pentecostalism in a scholarly and current light. Spirit and
Power is no mere paraphrase of dated approaches. It is a fresh and
penetrating look at the whys and wherefores of Pentecostal doctrine
that sets a new standard for Spirit-filled theology. Whatever your
persuasion may be as a Christian, this book's thoughtfulness,
balance, and biblical integrity will help you appreciate more fully
the strengths of the Pentecostal stance. Laying the groundwork for
an accurate understanding of Luke's writings in particular, the
authors help you grasp the foundations of Pentecostal theology from
the standpoints of history, hermeneutics, and exegesis. Then, in
Part Two, they give you an in-depth look at specific Pentecostal
concerns: the baptism of the Holy Spirit as a blessing subsequent
to salvation, evidential tongues, signs and wonders, healing in the
atonement, and more. You'll deepen your understanding of the basis
for Pentecostal beliefs. And you'll gain a feel for the mutually
beneficial dialogue that continues between Pentecostals and
Evangelicals today.
