Get PDFOne of the most valuable contributions to this work of Andrew Gabriel in The Lord is the Spirit is to reveal its limitation of the classical theism which is heavily Christo-centric. He thoroughly examines from the ancient theologians including Thomas Aquinas to contemporary theologians including Karl Barth and Jurgen Moltman in order to demonstrate the lack of or insufficient reference to the presence of the Spirit in the discourse of the doctrine of God

To make this case I will survey the earliest Apostolic Pentecostal collection of songs found in The Bridegroom Songs hymnal published by the first legally recognized Apostolic Pentecostal organization in the United States, the Pentecostal Assemblies of the World (PAW).
