BIBLE
PAUL, THE SPIRIT, AND THE PEOPLE OF GOD Gordon D. Fee Foreword by Dean Pinter This contemporary classic by renowned scholar Gordon Fee explores the Spirit’s significant role in Pauline life and thought. This edition features an updated design and packaging, new study questions, and a foreword by Dean Pinter, who commends the book to a new generation of readers. “Fee’s earlier scholarly tome on Paul’s theology of the Holy Spirit is without dispute the most thorough work on the subject ever yet produced. The fruit of that detailed labor is made accessible to a wider range of readers in his Paul, the Spirit, and the People of God . For anyone interested in this major Pauline theme, and in the work of the Spirit, this work is indispensable. It helps us reframe in more biblical terms our thinking about the central role of the Spirit.” —CRAIG S. KEENER, Asbury Theological Seminary; author of Gift and Giver: The Holy Spirit for Today FROM THE FOREWORD “Gordon makes an obvious but bold assertion in his book: ‘If we are going to count for much in the postmodern world in which we now live, the Spirit must remain the key to the church’s exis- tence.’ These words are still as relevant as they were when he first wrote them in the mid-1990s, if not more so today. The ubiquity of the internet, the influence of social media, and the geopolitical shifts that have occurred since 9/11 were not envisioned in the world in which Gordon wrote this book, but Gordon’s insight was keen and far-reaching at that time, and it continues as such today. He recognizes that the church always needs a reformed and reforming faith rooted in the experienced reality of the Holy Trinity, especially when faced with the contemporary seductions posed by the ‘modern trinity’ of relativism, secularism, and indi- vidualism.”— Dean Pinter
