More from Heaven's Throne Gift

I started on Friday sharing some insights from Heaven's Throne Gift by James A. Stewart who Duane and Iris Blue recommended to me. Here are more quotes from that book:

The office of the Spirit is to communicate Christ to us in His entireness. (pg. 26)

The Spirit is the custodian of all things belonging to Christ;.... (pg. 27)

The Christian life is a supernatural, mystical life. We have never seen Christ with the naked eye, ....He is the altogether lovely One. (pg. 31)

The twin marks of a Spirit-filled believer are a deep appreciation for the Person of our Lord Jesus, and a deep, spiritual, reverential hunger for an insight into the Word of God. Anything less is only a sham. (pg. 31)

That is why the Spirit is to precious to me. That is why I worship Him and commune with Him and appreciate Him in His condescension. (pg. 33)

Who prayed down the Spirit of Pentecost? It was the glorified Son Who prayed down the Spirit. (pg. 33)

Pentecost is just as much a reality as Calvary. (pg. 35)

Let us make it clear that there is a vast difference in our possessing the Spirit of God and the Spirit of God possessing us. (pg. 37)
