Publisher's Synopsis
When the Holy Ghost Is Come is a devotional classic of Christian literature by S. L. Brengle - a preacher who gained rightful renown for his profound spiritual expressions on behalf of God.
The simple yet digestible style in which Brengle writes belies his supreme understanding of the Holy Spirit. The devotional profundity with which he approaches the subject is easy to absorb, with every element and tenet of the Holy Ghost described in terms of how it effects the believer. Chapters focus upon the pureness of the spirit, its power to act, and the guidance it offers those seeking to become closer to God.
This book defines and explains the characteristics of the Holy Ghost, and the significance of the manifestation in the context of Christian beliefs and theology. Brengle notes that the Holy Ghost embodies aspects of the Christian ideals; the triumph over ill-tempered anger, the erasure of suffering, and the spiritual experience of holiness.
Additionally, Brengle imbues his work with historical and scriptural knowledge. He notes for instance the times in which the Holy Ghost has been violated, and what sins and offences it has sustained over the millennia. How believers themselves should guard against intentional or unintentional sinning, is likewise discussed.
Samuel Logan Brengle was a preacher who spent much of his life in service of the Lord. He served as a highly ranked Salvation Army officer, whose books and sermons were very sought after for their poignant tone and ability to bring clarity to matters which often eluded the understanding of many Christian believers.
