Holy Spirit Baptism

Neo-Pentecostalism--the movement in which Pentecostal teachings and practices are adopted by members of non-Pentecostal churches--is the subject of this brief but helpful study. Dr. Hoekema's discussion nis characterized by its thoroughly scriptural basis, and by its focus upon the doctrine of baptism in the Spirit. In an earlier volume, What About Tongues Speaking?, Hoekema provided a brief history of Pentecostalism and Neo-Pentecostalism, and considered the psychological aspects of charismatic phenomena. Addressing himself now only to Neo-Pentecostalism, he is able to provide a convincing answer to the question of whether or not the Bible offers support for the concept of Spirit-baptism. Written primarily for the layman, Holy Spirit Baptism is well suited both for individual study and/or group discussion. -Publisher
