About this book

The Person and Work of the Holy Spirit is a foundational work in Christian theology. The book systematically presents the Holy Spirit not as a mere influence, but as a distinct and divine person within the Trinity. Torrey carefully details the Holy Spirit’s multifaceted work in a believer’s life, including regeneration, sanctification, and empowerment for ministry.

Before one can correctly understand the work of the Holy Spirit, one must first know the Spirit Himself. A frequent source of error and obsession about the work of the Holy Spirit is the attempt to study and understand His work without first of all coming to know Him as a Person.
