Description

Eschewing extremes, Bible scholar D. A. Carson explores the controversial subject of the role of the Holy Spirit in the life of a believer and in the life of the church. Unpacking 1 Corinthians 12-14, as well as touching on relevant passages in Acts, Carson faithfully follows the evidence of the text and offers an honest look at the strengths and weaknesses of both charismatic and non-charismatic viewpoints.

Good exposition of 1 Corinthians 12-14 as it relates to the issue of spiritual gifts and especially the charismatic gifts. Whether you agree with all of his conclusions he has put together a thoughtful discussion of the text and it's implications on the current day church.
