Work of the Spirit

 

 

 

J.I. Packer says in his book entitled Knowing God, “They think the work of the Spirit is to give them experiences that are like LSD trips.  (How unhelpful it is when evangelists actually promise this, and when drug users equate their fantasies with religious experience!  Will our age never learn to distinguish things that differ?)  In fact, however, this quest for an inward explosion rather than an inward communion shows deep misunderstanding of the Spirit’s ministry.” [Packer, J.I. Knowing God, p. 219 - 220]
