Wilf Hildebrandt

NO OF PAGES: 238 SUB CAT I: Holy Spirit SUB CAT II: Theology SUB CAT III: DESCRIPTION: Wilf Hildebrandt carefully explores the meaning of "the Spirit" in the Old Testament. He examines the role of God's Spirit in creation, in the establishment and preservation of God's people, in prophecy, and in Israel's leadership. By looking at the relevant passages on the Holy Spirit within their contexts, he unveils the central role that the Spirit plays in creatively bringing about the directives of God. Through the Spirit, God brings order out of chaos, ushers the invisible into reality, makes a separation between the sacred and the profane, enables specific people to meet particular needs, and supersedes natural laws. Hildebrant's useful work sheds light on the Spirit of God of the Old Testament and also on the Spirit of God so often referred to, but so rarely defined, in the New Testament.NOTES: Purchased from CBD.
