Communion with God, or in full, "Of communion with God the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost each person distinctly, in love, grace, and consolation; or, the saints' fellowship with the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost unfolded," is John Owen's finest devotional treatise. This work expounds "the most glorious truth that believers may have distinct communion with the three persons Father, Son, and Spirit," and being addressed to the "Christian reader" is simpler than much of Owen's theology. (Unabridged. Includes all footnotes.)

In The Holy Spirit as Communion, Leon Harris examines the pneumatologies of Colin Gunton and Frank Macchia. For both theologians, the doctrine of the Holy Spirit is foundational to understanding their doctrine of God, Christology, and ecclesiology. Drawing on the theme of communion, The Holy Spirit as Communion expresses the concept that the Holy Spirit is the person who perfects the divine nature and personhood of the Father and Son. It is the Holy Spirit who perfects the eternal communion within the divine Trinity, which is the source of the divine action that also perfects the communion in creation as an expression of the Father’s will through Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit as Communion explores the essentiality of the Holy Spirit through a unique approach to Spirit Christology: Gunton is represented by a radicalized version of Chalcedon Christology, and Macchia formulates his account through the overarching metaphor of “Spirit baptism.” Therefore, the doctrine of God, Christology, ecclesiology, and eschatology cannot be construed without a proper account of pneumatology that takes into consideration the eschatological perfecting work of the third person of the Trinity—who perfects creation’s koinonia as a gift from the Father through the grace of Jesus Christ.

The Christian life seemingly involves many outward matters and things, such as baptism, the breaking of bread, worship, praise, prayer, forgiveness, humility, and love for one another. As such, it is easy to focus on these things but miss the spiritual reality behind them. This reality is the Holy Spirit. Apart from the Holy Spirit, who is the Spirit of reality, all of these things, no matter how faithfully practiced, are merely outward conduct that is devoid of any real inward spiritual content.

"And now I will send the Holy Spirit, just as my Father promised. But stay here in the city until the Holy Spirit comes and fills you with power from heaven." Luke 24:49 New Living Translation What is the greatest promise God ever made? Joel 2:28 And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: 29 And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit. 30 And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke. 31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of the Lord come. 32 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the Lord hath said, and in the remnant whom the Lord shall call.(Acts 2:15-21) For all the blessings God has ever given to mankind the Holy Spirit remains one of the most integral and important. Yet many Christians struggle with unlocking the power in their lives because there is so much denominational doctrine division and differences in theology in the church. You don't have to be a spiritual leader to experience the presence of God and continue the works of Jesus on earth. All you need is a powerful divine encounter with the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is mentioned 264 times in the New Testament alone, yet many believers are often confused about the role of the Third Person of the Trinity. The contents of this book are based on a thorough comprehensive biblical model for learning about the person and power of the Holy Spirit and how He can work in the lives of individuals. This book is for everyone because it is written in a very simple yet profound style, employing user-friendly language that makes the message accessible to every reader who desires to know the Holy Spirit and His anointing without requiring denominational affiliations or a high level of theological knowledge. From the Holy Scriptures, Dr. Abraham Peters shows that the Holy Spirit wants to be our Comforter, Teacher, and mighty Helper. From the Pentecost experience at the upper room where the 120 believers were baptized with the cloven tongues of fire and began to spread the holy fire by doing the miraculous. This new life the early Christians lived amazed the world and "turned it upside down."(Acts 17:6 & Acts 4:13). In this book, You will find answers to questions about Who is the Holy Spirit, and what is the Spirit's role? Names, Gifts, Fruits, Symbols, and Attributes of the Holy Spirit. Activities of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit in the Life of Jesus and lots more. To know the Holy Spirit is to know Him as an ever-present, loving Friend and mighty Helper who wants you to know Him as a Person just as real as Jesus Christ. Today, many are experiencing healing, miracles, and other gifts of the Holy Spirit along with the love, joy, and peace that He freely gives. You can know Him personally and experience His miracle-working power in your own life too. When was the last time you had a supernatural encounter with the Holy Spirit? In this book Dr. Abraham Peters teaches you why God wants to communicate with us, how God gets our attention, how God communicates with us, and how to listen to God and enjoy His loving presence. Learning to listening to the God who wants to speak to you. His voice waits to be heard and, having heard it, we are launched into the greatest, most exciting adventure we could ever imagine..

While he was well known for his lifelong fascination with the nature of religious experience, the colonial American pastor and theologian Jonathan Edwards is seldom associated with a specifically Trinitarian spirituality. This study explores the central connections Edwards drew between his doctrines of religious experience and the Trinity: the person and work of the Holy Spirit. Edwards envisioned the Spirit's inter-Trinitarian work as the affectionate bond of union between the Father and the Son, a work that, he argued, is reduplicated in a finite way in the work of redemption. Salvation is ultimately all about being drawn in love into the Trinitarian life of the Godhead. This study takes us through the major regions of Edwards's theology, including his Trinitarianism, his doctrine of the end for which God created the world, his Christology, and his doctrines of justification, sanctification, and glorification, to demonstrate the centrality of the Holy Spirit throughout his theology.
