The Promised Holy Spirit : A Trinitarian and Christological Pneumatology (Studies in Historical and Systematic Theology)

In The Promised Holy Spirit, Torey J. S. Teer presents a biblically faithful, theologically robust, and historically grounded account of the person and work of the Holy Spirit. Arguing that pneumatology must be both classically trinitarian and emphatically Christological, Teer demonstrates that the Spirit is inseparably tethered to the Son and operates within the unity and missions of the triune God. Drawing from Scripture and classical trinitarian theology, this volume contends that a sound understanding of the Spirit rests upon the unity of essence, distinction of persons, inseparable operations, and the ordered missions of Father, Son, and Spirit. At the same time, it shows that the Spirit's identity and work are decisively tied to Christ and his redemptive mission. Offering a holistic and coherent vision of the Holy Spirit, this book will serve professors, upper-level undergraduate and seminary students, and scholars seeking theological depth. It is an ideal resource for advanced courses in systematic theology and trinitarian doctrine as well as for those pursuing a richer understanding of the Spirit's role in salvation.
