It has been around since Jesus walked this earth almost 2000 years ago. It's time for Christians to discover the chronicles of the Holy Spirit's activity through people of courage from the Day of Pentecost to the present time in a way that makes history enjoyable. Here is a scholarly work full of fire and faith, which is disproving the theory of the cessation of miraculous signs, wonders and miracles at the end of the apostolic age. |

| Publisher Description: Overwhelming evidence reveals contemporary Christianity roots in Pentecost The world is taking notice and realizing that the fastest-growing segment in Christianity has an undeniable history with a pattern and a rich, deep foundation dating back to the New Testament. Explore overwhelming evidence that reveals how the gifts of the Holy Spirit not only have existed in the centuries since the early apostles, but have also survived the Middle Ages, the politicized church of Europe, and have experienced a spectacular revival this century. Learn invaluable lessons from the experiences of courageous men and women who sought God and saw His power in their generation. The reader of this volume will gain a greater appreciation for the work of the Holy Spirit in history and will experience a sharpened sense to discern what God is doing in the church today. 2000 Years of Charismatic Christianity offers convincing evidence that the modern Pentecostal and Charismatic movements are rooted in the two-thousand-year history of the church. Those who identify with these movements will be affirmed in the experience of the Holy Spirit and will gain a new respect and appreciation for the movement of which they are a part. Those outside the Pentecostal and Charismatic movements will also benefit by reading this volume in that they will gain an understanding of this movement that Harvard professor Dr. Harvey Cox says is "reshaping religion in the 21st century." |
