Synopsis "Baptism and Fullness: The Work of the Holy Spirit Today (Ivp Classics) "

"The Christian life is life in the Spirit," writes John Stott. "It would be impossible to be a Christian, let alone to live and grow as a Christian, without the ministry of the gracious Spirit of God. All we have and are as Christians we owe to him." The Holy Spirit continues to be at work around the world, as numerous renewal movements attest. Yet much confusion and controversy remain regarding the Holy Spirit's activity. In this classic study, John Stott provides clear biblical exposition on the promise, the fruit and the gifts of the Holy Spirit. He offers particular guidance on the nature of "the baptism of the Spirit" and whether certain spiritual gifts and experiences should be normative for all Christians. Always irenic and gracious, Stott points the way to both greater biblical understanding and deeper fullness of spiritual life.

John Robert Walmsley Stott (April 27, 1921 – July 27, 2011) was an influential British theologian and Anglican minister, recognized as one of the most prominent figures in the global evangelical movement of the 20th century. His legacy includes more than 50 books translated into over 65 languages, among which Basic Christianity (1958) and The Cross of Christ (1986) stand out, works that have left a profound mark on contemporary Christian theology

Stott studied at Trinity College, Cambridge, where he earned a double degree in French and German, and then trained for ministry at Ridley Hall, Cambridge. He was ordained a deacon in 1945 and a priest in 1946, beginning his ministry at All Souls Church, Langham Place, in London, where he served as rector from 1950 to 1975

In 1974, he was one of the main authors of the Lausanne Covenant, a key document in the history of global evangelism. Additionally, he founded the Langham Partnership in 2002, an organization dedicated to training Christian leaders in the developing world

Stott was recognized for his expository clarity and commitment to faithful biblical preaching. In 2005, Time magazine included him in its list of the 100 most influential people in the world. He passed away in 2011 at the age of 90, leaving a lasting legacy in the global church
