Description

The Charismatic Theology of St. Luke: Trajectories from the Old Testament to Luke-Acts by Roger Stronstad This study offers a fresh perspective on the Holy Spirit's activity in Luke-Acts, exploring its implications for today. Roger Stronstad examines how Luke's understanding of the Spirit was shaped by his understanding of Jesus and the early church, and how this informs our own understanding of the Spirit's role. Stronstad locates Luke's pneumatology within the historical context of Judaism, revealing a unique contribution to the New Testament's pneumatology. The book challenges traditional Protestant perspectives on the impact of Pentecost, instead exploring the Spirit's role in equipping God's people for mission. A new foreword by Mark Allan Powell adds further insight into this thought-provoking work. With its revised and updated content, this second edition provides a comprehensive analysis of Luke as a charismatic theologian.
