The Spirit of the Lord God (eBook, PDF)

Biblical Names and Images for the Holy Spirit; An Abecedarian Anthology of Spiritual Reflections for Anytime

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The Spirit of the Lord God presents seventy-three biblical-based reflections on the invisible power and life-source of God, known as Spirit, in the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament), Old Testament (Apocrypha), and the Christian Bible (New Testament). Each exercise begins with a biblical quotation about the Spirit of the Lord, the Spirit of God, the Holy Spirit, or Spirit. The biblical words are followed by an in-depth reflection highlighting both the names for and the images of the Holy Spirit scattered throughout the Bible. The entries are arranged in an abecedarian (alphabetical) order, and they are designed to help the reader nourish his or her spirit. Meditation or journal questions are provided to assist the latter process. Each exercise ends with a few verses of a psalm that serve to close the exercise and further emphasize the role of the Spirit in one's life. This work completes a series: Names for Jesus (2017) and Biblical Names for God (2023). Beginning with A (Abide, Spirit of Adoption, Advocate, and Agape [Love]), individual entries continue through the alphabet to Z (Zeitgeist). By reflecting on biblical names for the Holy Spirit, the reader comes to know better the Holy One who breathes Spirit everywhere and transforms all life.
