. I've only read a few chapters but it's an intriguing look at Church History from a Charismatic / Pentecostal perspective. I'm only up to AD 600 but it's clear that the notion that the charisma disappeared from the Church round about the the end of the NT is simply not sustainable.
We're not talking about minor figures in Church History either - in the City of God Augustine writes:-
He does record various instances of miracles including healings, casting out of demons and even the raising of the dead. This contrasts with his earlier writings where he cast doubt on the miraculous - Warfield et al quote his earlier works but not his later!"I am so pressed by the promise of finishing this book that I cannot record all the miracles I know."
I'll do a full review once I've finished this book but I'm thoroughly enjoying it so far.
