After Fee published his magisterial God's Empowering Presence, he was asked to write a more accessible volume that would articulate Paul's priorities for experiencing the life of the Spirit in the church. Fee's bestselling introduction to Paul and the Spirit, Paul, the Spirit, and the People of God, went on to sell over 70,000 copies. This book by one of the greatest evangelical and Pentecostal New Testament interpreters of our time argues that the presence of the Spirit is, for Paul and for us, the crucial matter for the Christian life.

This book is a Smith Wigglesworth collection like no other! Smith Wigglesworth (1859-1947) was one of the most solid, powerful, and influential men of God in all of church history. His teachings on the Holy Spirit, the Pentecostal movement, the power of speaking in tongues and the Word of God is unparalleled in many ways.

The book that you have found is not just a book. It is a treasure that has been virtually hidden and forgotten for over 100 years. The Welsh revival is one of the most famous and impactful revivals in modern history. However, there has been very little written on it by actual eyewitnesses because of the belief that no person should take any credit for what happened.

Men and women of God have been studying the life of Paul the Apostle since the dawn of the New Covenant. Having written 13 (or perhaps 14 if you include Hebrews) of the 27 books of the New Testament, his writings, breathed by the Holy Spirit, are vital to Christians everywhere. His boldness in proclaiming the truths of the New Covenant was not only revolutionary, but caused him to live in constant threat of death.

Few revivals have been as powerful and influential as the Welsh Revival. It was birthed from the unceasing, passionate prayers of men and women of God all over Wales, and led by the anointing-saturated young man, Evan Roberts. However, because Evan Roberts was a naturally reclusive man, and the teaching of humility was so important during the revival, we have very few eyewitness accounts or testimonies that give us deeper insights into how and why God moved in that time.

There is no greater story in the history of humanity than that of the undying love between the Lord Jesus and His people. The most famous story in eternity will always be how the Son of God came and died a horrible death on the cross for our sins. However, there have been countless thousands of men and women who have reciprocated that love, and have walked to certain death in order to tell the lost about the lover of their souls. They faced raining clouds of arrows and spears, shipwrecks, starvation and hunger, dark jungles and slavery, and more than could ever be listed here.

John G. Lake was a man known for his nation changing ministry of healing. While there are many volumes that have been written about this great man of God, there has never been one like this!

Madame Jeanne Guyon was one of the most important figures of the 1600s-1700s, not only in France, but throughout Europe. The Reformation had ended nearly 100 years prior, but much of the world continued to believe that the common people could only approach God through priests. Mystics like Madame Guyon, Brother Lawrence, and Miguel de Molinos taught that each individual could come to God through the intimacy of personal prayer. This teaching branded them as heretics.

There have been many revivals throughout history. Some being so small and contained to a specific area that they have never found their way into the history books, like that of an unreached tribe deep in the jungles of Brazil reached by a small team of missionary students, to the mighty rushing winds recorded in rural churches of Alaska. But very rarely do revivals come with such a fiery spreading and global impact as the Azusa Street Revival, which took place from 1906 to 1908.

This belief is summed up in the words of J. R. Ryland (father of John Ryland) to William Carey at that fateful conference that would change Carey’s life forever.

Adoniram showed a level of commitment and willingness to push through suffering and hard times far beyond what the vast majority of Christians would be willing to endure. His legacy as a pioneer on multiple levels is one that will last through this earth’s remaining time and into the heavenly library. Despite unimaginable hardships, Judson's work bore fruit that continues to impact lives today.

Gone are the days of legendary men like Daniel Boone. There are still heroes, yes, of course, but not like those early pioneers who risked everything to go to lands completely unknown and untamed in search of a home. These brave men and women went literally into the darkest hearts of land and faced constant death on every side in an incredibly unique period of time.

This book has one goal in mind, to try and bring greater understanding between two dedicated groups of Christians. Dispensationalists and Reformed Christians have a very different understanding of how God has worked in this world as well as how God will continue to work. There is a theological divide that has developed after many years of discussion and stems from a mixture of ignorance; misunderstanding and actual disagreement.
