Summary: Wonderfully-written, easy to read resource!
Review: Contrary to that last reviewer's opinion, I think this book is great! I've used it for years, because it is a practical, well-thought-out, and easy to read book. The index is topical and it answers practically every question a believer would have about Holy Spirit Baptism. The book also dispels many misunderstandings and myths related to charisma and Scripture. I've truly found no other resource as good as this one to give to those who have questions about the Holy Spirit. Highly recommended! Buy several and give them to your questioning friends! :)

Summary: Don't buy in to liberal theology - DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK!
Review: First of all, Holy Spirit Baptism isn't even scriptural - so how can this book be at all practical? Second, a believer would have to believe in the do-do bird as well to accept the theology presented in this book. Third, what in the heck are you dispelling. The historical accounts in this book are incorrect. The author did not research church history before writig this book. It is very apparent that the author has no understanding of greek and Bible interpreation. Don't buy this book. Don't give it to your friends.
Don't recommend. If you believe in a personal prayer language, you are praying to a God that is not the God of Jesus Christ.

Summary: A great resource for those seeking the Baptism in the HS
Review: For those who want the serve God with power, boldness and without fear of man, it is of upmost importance to seek and receive the Baptism in the Holy Spirit. The transition from the fearful impotent followers of Christ hiding in the Upper Room (John 20:19)to awe inspiring, government defying charismatic leaders converting thousands to Jesus (Acts 2)is a testament to what is in store for those who are Baptised in the Holy Spirit. Just like salvation, the Baptism in the Holy Spirit is received by asking for it and receiving by faith. Don Basham's book gives practical steps to help those searching for the power to better serve God...and that power comes through the Baptism in the Holy Spirit. We have found this book to be very effective in leading others to this empowering experience...we buy them by the dozen. If you want a solid witnessing tool for this gift from God, use Don Basham's Handbook on the Holy Spirit Baptism.

Summary: Don't buy in to liberal theology - DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK!
Review: This book is a must-have for anyone interested in the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. It covers everything from the origins of Holy Spirit Baptism to modern day speaking in tongues. There is discussion as to controversy surrounding this topic and answers to many related questions. Lots of scripture references for you to read, pray about and make your own informed decision.
