The Empowering Presence of the Holy Spirit

In this episode, Caleb is joined by Andreas Kostenberger (PhD, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School) professor of biblical studies at Palm Beach Atlantic University and founder of Biblical Foundations to discuss a biblical theology of the Holy Spirit. Together, they summarize the biblical teaching on the Holy Spirit first walking through the major sections of Scripture before offering a biblical-theological synthesis via six themes: The Spirit (1) mediates God’s presence and, in doing so, (2) imparts life, (3) reveals truth, (4) fosters holiness, (5) supplies power, and (6) effects unity.
