Doing What Comes Spiritually - by John M Drescher (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

How do we know if we have the Holy Spirit in our lives? Are spiritual gifts a sure sign of the Spirit? No. Gifts can be counterfeited. Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, meekness, and self-control--this is the fruit whose growth in our lives indicates the Spirit's presence. Doing What Comes Spiritually is a revised and updated edition of John Drescher's popular study of the Holy Spirit. Ten printings of the first edition were issued from 1974 through 1991 under the title Spirit Fruit and received wide affirmation.

From the Back Cover

This is a revised and updated edition of Dresher's popular study of the Holy Spirit. The chapters are primarily devotional. Meditations are short, in the hope that the reader will carry the book along and read a chapter or two in spare minutes. The length of the main sections within the ten parts makes them appropriate for daily devotional reading.
