Summary: Classical Pentecostal Defense of Spirit Baptism
Review: Having read James Dunn's work BAPTISM IN THE SPIRIT, I found Dr. Ervin's book to be refreshing. Dr. Erwin does not take personal attacks toward Dr. Dunn or any other non-Pentecostal theologians but he simply wrestles with the Scriptures over the issue of Spirit Baptism. This is book is quite technical. I tried to read it while a young Christian and really struggled. However, having been saved now for 12 years and studied the Greek New Testament for over 7 years, I can read Dr. Ervin's book and truly enjoy it. Dr. Ervin takes Dr. Dunn's popular book and arguments to task with no only Dunn's book but the Greek text. He provides evidence that Spirit Baptism is both biblical and experiential in its nature. Read this book even if you are not a Pentecostal and see that Pentecostal theologians are very capable, skilled men who love God with all their hearts and minds.
