All About The Holy Spirit
Herbert LockyerOver thirty years ago the renowned Union Gospel Press of Cleveland, Ohio, kindly published this study of mine, which has been out of print for several years, under the title The Breath of God. An opportunity arose to revise and amend the book for publication under its new title, The Holy Spirit of God; sincere gratitude is expressed for permission to release and reprint the same.
In his introduction to Abraham Kayfer’s monumental work on The Holy Spirit, Professor B. B. Warfield remarked, “The Holy Spirit—a theme higher than which none can occupy the attention of the Christian . . . Only a spiritually-minded church provides the soil in which a literature of the Spirit can grow.”
Within the last half-century or so, such literature has become most extensive, so that one is embarrassed by riches when a study of the far-reaching ramifications of the Spirit’s ministry is undertaken. It is superfluous for me to add that I am deeply indebted to scores of writers on this theme. The volume before you constitutes a personal endeavor to express in simple terms for believers the manifold activities of God the Holy Spirit, the Author and Lord of all life.
