When the Holy Ghost is Come (Annotated)
Enriched Edition. Holy Spirit Teaching on Sanctification, Spiritual Power, and Practical Christian LivingBy Samuel Logan BrengleLength6h 10m
About this audiobook
When the Holy Ghost is Come is a classic work of evangelical holiness spirituality, devoted to the person, presence, and practical work of the Holy Spirit in the believer's life. Brengle writes not as a speculative theologian but as a pastoral expositor, joining biblical argument, devotional urgency, and plainspoken exhortation. Set within the late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Holiness movement, the book emphasizes purity of heart, sanctified service, spiritual power, and intimate communion with God. Samuel Logan Brengle, one of the Salvation Army's most influential teachers of holiness, brought to this work the experience of both Methodist formation and disciplined evangelical mission. Educated for ministry and later shaped by the Army's radical commitment to the poor, he understood the Holy Spirit not merely as doctrine but as the living source of compassion, courage, and moral transformation. His own ministry of preaching, writing, and spiritual counsel informs the book's earnest and practical tone. Readers seeking a historically important statement of holiness theology will find this volume deeply rewarding. It is especially recommended to students of evangelical spirituality, pastors, Salvation Army readers, and anyone desiring a more consecrated and Spirit-filled Christian life.
