A Journey in
Spirit
Richard Belcher
The
pursuit of the truth continues for Ira Pointer in this fourth theological novel
from the pen of Richard Belcher. The
subject of his search is the doctrine of the Holy Spirit.
The journey begins as Pastor Pointer meets and befriends one of the most
unique, intriguing and tragic men he will ever encounter.
This man of tremendous talent is Pastor Pointer’s successor at his
previous pastorate, and he is the one who triggers the search with the question,
“Have you been filled with the Holy Spirit since you were saved?”
With
the search on, Pastor Ira faces many questions about the Holy Spirit -- Who is
the Holy Spirit? What work does the holy Spirit performed? What about the
filling of the Holy Spirit? Should all Christians expect to receive the gift of
tongues as evidence of the fullness of the Spirit?
Is there a distinction between the tongues of Acts and the tongues of I
Corinthians? Has the gift of tongues ceased in the present day?
The answers to these and other questions, plus the tragic life of his new
friend, are used of God to teach him many lessons concerning the person and work
of the Holy Spirit.
