The Person and Work of The Holy Spirit (Annotated) by Reuben Archer Torrey Pdf
Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the timeThe Person and Work of the Holy Spirit, by R. A. Torrey, is a Christian classic that is hard to judge. I had originally come to the book expecting to find so much to apply to my life. Initially, it was wonderful to read, and there was just so much spiritual food to get from the Biblical applications. Concepts such as I had never before considered were presented to me. Important truths that I felt shamed at not realizing. It was a wonderful time of contemplating the hidden truths (to me) of God's Word.Then, well, then the troubles began. About a third of the way through the work, the charismatic thoughts of Torrey began to surface. The unScriptural heresies that would pollute the otherwise great, God-honoring work of the Azusa Street Revival are evident in this book.I am not trying to start a theological battle with the Pentecostals and others in the Charismatic movements. I am merely pointing out that many of the pleas to feeling can be just as troubling an extreme as pure, cold logic, with no feeling. Most of the book is filled with these notions.
