On the shelf of those interested in the earliest Christian perceptions of the Spirit are books by Jimmy Dunn, and I’m thinking of Jesus and the Spirit, by Gordon Fee, especially his God’s Empowering Presence, by Craig Keener, like The Mind of the Spirit
Seventh, “As those determined to live by the Spirit, we devote ourselves to learning to hear the Spirit.” “God’s Spirit is a breath, so we must learn to hear his wordless breathings in our beings.” Scripture and sacraments and embodiment are central to hearing.
Eighth, “Pneumaformed people recognize that their path to glorification is paved with suffering.” You can't read Paul and not see this.
Good Monday morning. Thank you Scott
These two stood out to me:
Seventh, “As those determined to live by the Spirit, we devote ourselves to learning to hear the Spirit.” “God’s Spirit is a breath, so we must learn to hear his wordless breathings in our beings.” Scripture and sacraments and embodiment are central to hearing.
Eighth, “Pneumaformed people recognize that their path to glorification is paved with suffering.” You can't read Paul and not see this.
This sounds outstanding.
