What does the New Testament teach about the spiritual gift of prophecy? What is it? How does it function? Can evangelical Christians use it in their churches today?
This updated, comprehensive work answers such questions and points the way to a renewed understanding of the gift of prophecy—an understanding that suggests how the body of Christ may enjoy one of the Holy Spirit's most edifying gifts without compromising the supremacy of Scripture.

How do we hear the Spirit's voice in Scripture? Once we have done responsible exegesis, how may we expect the Spirit to apply the text to our lives and communities? In Spirit Hermeneutics biblical scholar Craig Keener addresses these questions, carefully articulating how the experience of the Spirit that empowered the church on the day of Pentecost can-and should-dynamically shape our reading of Scripture today.

How do we hear the Spirit's voice in Scripture? Once we have done responsible exegesis, how may we expect the Spirit to apply the text to our lives and communities? In Spirit Hermeneutics biblical scholar Craig Keener addresses these questions, carefully articulating how the experience of the Spirit that empowered the church on the day of Pentecost can-and should-dynamically shape our reading of Scripture today. Keener considers what Spirit-guided interpretation means, explores implications of an epistemology of Word and Spirit for biblical hermeneutics, and shows how Scripture itself models an experiential appropriation of its message. Bridging the Word-Spirit gap between academic and experiential Christian approaches, Keener's Spirit Hermeneutics narrates a way of reading the Bible that is faithful both to the Spirit-inspired biblical text and to the experience of the Spirit among believers.
This major work by a leading New Testament scholar explores an important but neglected area of Pauline theology, Paul's teaching about the mind. In discussing matters such as the corrupted mind, the mind of Christ, and the renewal of the mind, Paul adapts language from popular intellectual thought in his day, but he does so in a way distinctively focused on Christ and Christ's role in the believer's transformation. Keener enables readers to understand this tho
This major work by a leading New Testament scholar explores an important but neglected area of Pauline theology, Paul's teaching about the mind. In discussing matters such as the corrupted mind, the mind of Christ, and the renewal of the mind, Paul adapts language from popular intellectual thought in his day, but he does so in a way distinctively focused on Christ and Christ's role in the believer's transformation. Keener enables readers to understand this thought world so they can interpret Paul's language for contemporary Christian life. The book helps overcome a false separation between following the Spirit and using human judgment and provides a new foundation for relating biblical studies and Christian counseling.
In Gift and Giver, a substantial revision of his 3 Crucial Questions about the Holy Spirit, prolific author Craig Keener takes a probing look at the various evangelical understandings of the role of the Holy Spirit in the church. His desire is for Christians to "work for consensus, or at least for unity in God's work despite our differences on secondary matters."
Employing a helpful narrative approach and an ample number of stories, Keener enters into

His desire is for Christians to "work for consensus, or at least for unity in God's work despite our differences on secondary matters."
Employing a helpful narrative approach and an ample number of stories, Keener enters into constructive dialogue with Pentecostals, moderates, and cessationists, all the while attempting to learn from each viewpoint. He seeks to bridge the gap between cessationists and Pentecostals/charismatics by urging all Christians to seek the Holy Spirit's empowerment. His irenic approach to this controversial issue has been endorsed by charismatics and non-charismatics alike.
Sure to provoke helpful dialogue on a topic that has caused unfortunate divisions within the church, Gift and Giver will be a valuable addition to college and seminary courses on pneumatology. It will also be helpful to lay readers interested in a balanced discussion of spiritual gifts.

Understanding and Applying the Scriptures is well-named. It gives an overview of how the Bible was created, from the time it was in the mind of God to the various translations of the Bible we use every day.

Understanding and Applying the Scriptures is well-named. It gives an overview of how the Bible was created, from the time it was in the mind of God to the various translations of the Bible we use every day. It also divides the rules of interpreting the Bible into eight general categories with illustrations and projects designed to make these practical. In addition, the book explains how to understand the various special literary devices in the Bible such as psalms,proverbs, prophecies and parables. The final section practically demonstrates how to convert interpretation into application.
The book grew out of the authors almost forty years of combined teaching experience. It reflects not so much the scholar's approach to hermeneutics as the practitioner's. The principles taught in this book are the ones the authors use every day in their preparation for teaching and preaching. This book will help you understand the Bible better and apply it more accurately in your life and the lives of those under your ministry.

Why another book on the prophetic ministry? I’ve read many books on the prophetic over the Years Some focus on the various biblical catogories of prophets and the supernatural manifestaion that occure through them.Other focus on how to prophecy and then what to do with prophetic words.
This book touches on those subjects, but it also frankly discusses the joy and the pain of prophetic people in a local church context. I relate the perils, perplexities,and tensions involved in nurturing prophetic people among nonprophetic people.When Holy Spirit activity happens among weak people like us, the clash between selfish ambition and lack of wisdom is inevitable. Many tensions arise.
Plus,we encounter Holy Spirit experiences that are foreign to us. All this makes for a challenging experience in our church life.
Four Fields stands in contrast with simpler approaches of proclaiming gospel truths faithfully. (These simpler approaches are called proclamation, God-centered, or church-centered models).

Four Fields stands in contrast with simpler approaches of proclaiming gospel truths faithfully. (These simpler approaches are called proclamation, God-centered, or church-centered models). Charitably defined, 4F seeks to replicate what Jesus and his disciples did in their ministries, by first entering a lost community, sharing the gospel, discipling the saved, and forming churches and leaders so that other Christians could reproduce this plan from entry to leadership formation.
The plan aims to equip believers to share the good news and start reproducing churches who make disciples and share with others, who in turn will repeat the plan. That plan depends upon an understanding of the four areas or “fields”: evangelism, discipleship, church planting, and leadership development (see the Four Fields of Kingdom Growth).
