“Does the man who is filled with the Spirit have more of the Spirit than the man who is not? No; rather, the Spirit has more of some Christians than He does of others. You can not divide the Person of the Holy Spirit. You either have Him or you do not. But the Spirit does possess more of some Christians’ interests than He does of others.” (Page 17)

“First, every believer on this side of the cross, in this dispensation of grace, is indwelt by the Holy Spirit.” (Page 6)

“The Holy Spirit wrote the Word of God; surely He alone can teach us who He is and what He does for us.” (Page 3)

“He can be resisted. He can be grieved. He can be quenched.” (Page 6)

“The Holy Spirit is a Person, co-existent, co-equal, co-eternal with God the Father and with God the Son. We shall never know the fulness of our blessings in Christ until we recognize this fundamental truth.” (Page 6)
