Charles Spurgeon is one of the greatest ministers of the reformed church. Many of the words he speaks are authoratative and very commendable. In reading this book I found it interesting how he defined the Holy Spirit in six steps and then explained how we may use the gift of the Spirit to the glory of God. This book is very comprehensable and to the point. If you purchase and read this book be ready for a new outlook on the gifts of God.

The Holy Spirit is God and He necessarily has the attributes of omniscience, omnipresence, and omnipotence. "To know the Holy Spirit is to know Him as an ever-present, loving Friend, and mighty Helper who wants you to know Him as a person just as real as Jesus." And herein, Sprugeon's exposition shows that the Holy Spirit isn't a mere force, but He is your Comforter, Teacher, Edifier, and all-powerful Helper.

Charles Spurgeon offers: "A sinner can no more repent and believe without the Holy Spirit's aid than he can create a world."

We need the Spirit through the Word at the birth of our faith and for the fulfillment of our sanctification. He is essential and He is always with His people.

Chapters include:

- The Comforter
- The Power of the Holy Ghost
- The Great Teacher
- The Withering Work of the Spirit
- Honey in the Mouth
- And more.

Sprugeon goes on to expound: "Let this be to you the mark of true gospel preaching - where Christ is everything, and the creature is nothing; where it is salvation all of grace, through the work of the Holy Spirit applying to the soul the precious blood of Jesus."

Since the Holy Spirit is a Comforter just like Jesus, and He through the Word He leads us to Jesus:
"On Christ, and what he has done, my soul hangs for time and eternity. And if your soul also hangs there, it will be saved as surely as mine shall be. And if you are lost trusting in Christ, I will be lost with you and will go to hell with you. I must do so, for I have nothing else to rely upon but the fact that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, lived, died, was buried, rose again, went to heaven, and still lives and pleads for sinners at the right hand of God."

This work is an outstanding volume for those who desire to know more about God the Holy Spirit whilst a yearning for Him is stirred up in your soul.

Charles Spurgeon is one of the greats in Christian history. This book was so enlightening and encouraging, and challenged me in my walk with Christ. I am so grateful that I bought this book. A must read for anyone wanting to go deeper in their relationship with the Lord.

I like the other review.
