Baptized in the Spirit
Frank MacchiaPaperback 2006-03-19
Publisher Description
Frank Macchia builds a comprehensive pneumatological foundation for theological renewal in the twenty-first century, interacting with many of the key theologians of the twentieth century and showing how contemporary trends in Pentecostal and charismatic thinking can aid the cause of ecumenism and global Christianity.
BAPTISED IN THE SPIRIT creatively examines the most recent trends in Pentecostal and charismatic theology, especially with regard to the displacement of Spirit baptism as Pentecostalism's central distinctive. The author begins by focusing on the significance of the Holy Spirit in reciprocal and mutual work with the Son in fulfilling the will of the Father. He also shows how the pneumatological emphases in Pentecostal and charismatic theology can help to correct the tendency in Western Christianity to subordinate the Spirit to the Word.
