    "Anyone who knows God the Father and God the Son without having a true understanding of God the Holy Spirit has not attained the Christian conception of God, nor has he [she] come to the fullness of Christian experience." (Fuchsia T. Pickett, "Understanding the Personality of the Holy Spirit")

    This is the first book that I have ever read by this author. I am always interested in getting more knowledge on the Person of the Holy Spirit and have a desire to have a more intimate relationship with Him, so I gave this book a shot.

    Before I begin a book, I usually scan the table of contents and that was no different with this book. At first, I was a little off-put by some of the names of the chapters and wondering if I was going to be exposed to some bad teaching. Here are the chapters in this book on Understanding the Personality of the Holy Spirit:

    1. Relationship with a Divine Personality

    2. Emotional Responses of the Holy Spirit

    3. Emblems Reveal the Holy Spirit's Character

    4. Sevenfold Power of the Holy Spirit. The Omnipotence of God Revealed

    5. Seven Moods of the Holy Spirit, Part II God's Desire for Mankind Realized

    I think what put me off (which later I repented and changed my mind about) was when the author talks about the emotional responses and moods of the Holy Spirit, but then it started to click for me as I read further: The Holy Spirit does have emotional responses and moods. Moods here are not defined by what most of us think when we think of moods i.e. like your spouse being in a bad mood! The author says, "When we discuss the moods of the Holy Spirit, we are describing a frame of mind He uses to express Himself to reveal His divine purpose for a particular situation. The Holy Spirit responds differently to different kinds of situations, though in each situation His ultimate purpose is to reveal Jesus and to fulfill the Father's eternal plan for mankind. For example, at times He will come in a convicting mood to convince men of sin. He expresses a compassionate mood when He comes as the Comforter to someone who is suffering grief."

    In respect to the Holy Spirit's emotional responses, the author says that the Holy Spirit has both negative and positive responses and then goes into great detail about each of these responses. Some of them he expounds upon are:

    Negative Responses
    - Grieved
    - Vexed
    - Offended
    - Quenched
    - Lied to
    - Defrauded
    - Resisted
    - Blasphemed

    Positive Responses
    - Obeyed
    - Believed
    - Honored

    The author teaches that Holy Spirit has definite emotional responses, but the greatest of these responses is love. He is the Spirit of Love. He says, "The Holy Spirit is a Person who has definite emotional responses, as clearly described in the Scriptures. He is God, and God is love (1 John 4:8). There is no stronger emotion than love. The strength of God's love is most clearly revealed in His willingness to undergo extreme suffering to rescue the object of His love: mankind."

    This was an interested take on the Holy Spirit that you probably will not find elsewhere. You start to see the Holy Spirit as more of a Person as you read this book and the power He gives you to live an overcoming life. The author has written some more books on the Holy Spirit that I am going to read next. Some of them are: Presenting the Holy Spirit, Walking In The Anointing...: Holy Spirit's Work in You, Receiving Divine Revelation: Invite the Holy Spirit to teach and guide you through scripture, Cultivating the Gifts and Fruit of the Holy Spirit.

    Some interesting insights on the Person of the Holy Spirit!
