1 Pneumatology The Study of the Holy Spirit Introductory Session
2 An Introduction to Pneumatology In our study of Pneumatology we want to ask and answer some of the following questions: 1. Who is the Holy Spirit and how can He change your life? 2. How is it possible for God to be three in one? 3. How is the Holy Spirit s relationship towards New Testament saints different from those who lived before the coming of Christ? 4. Did the Holy Spirit have a unique relationship with Christ & His Apostles? 5. How do we demonstrate that the Holy Spirit is both a Person and God? 6. What role does the Spirit play before we are saved? 7. What ministries of the Spirit are realized on the day of our conversion? 8. What ministries of the Spirit are ongoing in the believer s life? 9. When does the Spirit become a reality in the Christian s life and why why does it appear in the Book of Acts that He came to believers at different times and in different ways than today? 10. What are some of the major errors concerning the Holy Spirit that have been taught in the history of Christianity beginning in the post-apostolic period to the present day? 11. What was the Holy Spirit s role in the writing of the Bible, and is He still giving new revelation as some claim? 12. How will the Holy Spirit s role change in the world during the time of the Great Tribulation and why should that be important to us? 13. What is blasphemy of the Holy Spirit and can it be committed today? 14. Are all the gifts of the Holy Spirit manifested in the early Church still being given today? 15. What are the conditions that must be met for the filling of the Spirit and how does this ministry relate to other on-going ministries of the Spirit?
