John Sung My Teacher

The story of John Sung is simply the story of Holy Spirit Revival, not of the spurious ecumenical sort currently infecting churches around the world. John Sung unequivocally rebuked the tongue speakers, the liberals, modernists, apostates and ecumenist of this day. Were he alive today, he would not spare these false prophets the reproof of God's Word.

God the Revealed: Christology

"God revealed himself in Jesus Christ!” Christian faith has confessed and proclaimed this message for nearly two thousand years. But what does it really mean? In God the Revealed Michael Welker delves into this declaration and shows how it offers genuine insight into Christian faith. He asks "Who is Jesus Christ for us today?” and approaches the answer from five different angles -- the hist…

In addition to exegetical, biblical, and systematic theology, "there is room also for a Philosophy of Revelation which will trace the idea of revelation, both in its form and in its content, and correlate it with the rest of our knowledge and life," writes the author, one of the most distinguished Reformed theologians of the twentieth century. "Theological thought has always felt the need of su…

Receiving the Gifts of the Holy Spirit

During the past ten years, since I was baptized in the Holy Spirit, I have felt a great desire on the part of many people to operate fully in the gifts of the Holy Spirit set out in 1 Corinthian 12, being the word of wisdom, the word of knowledge, faith, the gifts of healing, miracles, prophecy, discerning of spirits, tongues and interpretation of tongues. I fervently believe that God has place…

Reason Within the Bounds of Religion

Expanding on his 1976 study of the bearing of Christian faith on the practice of scholarship, Wolterstorff has added a substantial new section on the role of faith in the decisions scholars make about their choice of subject matter.

Behold the Pierced One: An Approach to a Spiritual Christology

This little collection of Christological meditations and reflections has two points of origin. The first was the Congress on the Sacred Heart of Jesus that was held at Toulouse in the summer of 1981 in connection with the Eucharistic Congress held earlier at Lourdes. In the quiet of the Dominican cloister in Toulouse I was able to work on my talk for the Congress, which became an impetus for me…
