<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>This is a book about power; specifically, the power of the Holy Spirit and how His power dramatically impacted the personal life and ministry of the author. It is also written to help you and your church discover this dynamic ministry of the Holy Spirit for yourself. This liberating truth will set all who read it on the journey to fullness.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>A Primer on Power, The Power of The Holy Spirit</strong></p> <p>The purpose of this book is to introduce this subject in the hopes that my readers may enter into this fullness of the life of the Spirit and His ministry gifts. </p> <p>The liberating truth of the Holy Spirit's work will set all who read it on the journey to fullness.</p> <p><strong>You Need The Holy Spirit</strong></p> <p>This is a book about power, more specifically, this is a book about the power of the Holy Spirit and how this power dramatically impacted both the personal life and ministry of the author. It is a book written to help you and your church discover the dynamic ministry of the Holy Spirit. While this book discusses theology, it is not primarily a book on Pneumatology, but rather a personal and practical guide to life in the Spirit.</p> <p>There are places around the world where Christians are desperate for the power of God. They aggressively seek the presence and power of God and realize that without this power they are helpless to do the work of God. By way of contrast, the author has also stood in some of the magnificent cathedrals in Europe. At one time, these great edifices were at the center of genuine demonstrations of the power of God, but today they are museums. There are no people and there is no power! Many churches in America are approaching the same situation.</p> <p>I want to suggest that the mission of the church is unalterably linked to the work and ministry of the Holy Spirit. Without His ministry, the church has no power and the Christian has no victory.</p> <p><strong>Do Not Read This Book ...</strong><br /> <br /> Unless you are Desperate for Power. It is not for those who WANT power, but for those who MUST have power. Specifically, the power of the Holy Spirit who can dramatically change your life and your world.<br /> <br /> As a Harvest Evangelist who has traveled around the world and preached in the largest congregations in America, Dr. Scott Camp writes from first hand experience. He has seen thousands come to Christ, their lives changed, and miraculous answers to prayer. This "primer" is written to help you and your church discover the powerful ministry of the Holy Spirit. Dr. Camp also describes with great transparency "how this power dramatically impacted both my personal life and ministry."</p> <p>This is book for those who are desperate to see God at work through them. Scott leared these truths at great personal cost, and shares them with a desire to help other Christians experience this personal victory over sin and power for service. He also discusses the special gift the Holy Spirit gives to each believer which becomes a catalyst to other supernatural gifts of the Spirit.</p> <p>God plucked Scott Camp out of a lifestyle destined for destruction as a teen and set him on a path to following Jesus Christ. He is an evangelist with a world wide ministry. He travels extensively throughout the United States, Eastern Europe, Mexico, South America, Pakistan and the continent of Africa preaching at churches, city-wide crusades, and conferences.

Challenging an Evangelicalism that he sees as deficient in power and surviving on "life supports," Camp weaves together biblical commentary, personal testimony, and theological musings to promote a Spirit-empowered life and church. According to Camp, the Pentecostal baptism transforms and empower personal lives as well as exposes and confronts racism as well as sexism. Dr David Daniels, Professor of Church History, McCormick Theological Seminary, Bishop COGIC Scott Camp is a man of God. His book on the matchless experience with the Holy Spirit is essential for all believers. His sound theology is mixed with his amazing personal testimony. The impact to you as you read will bring permanent change and lasting fruit! Dr Larry Lea, Best Selling Author, Could You Not Tarry One Hour? Scott Camp is a man saved from the deepest of sinful living to a life in Jesus Christ. Scott loves Jesus! I know his life. The fullness of God's Spirit flows through him He has a solid understanding of the work and power of the Holy Spirit. Any-one reading this book will have a clear understanding of the baptism in the Holy Spirit. Great read! Dr Morris Sheets Founding Pastor, Hillcrest Church, in Dallas, TX Scott Camp has written a helpful book for those interested in the presence, power and gifts of the Holy Spirit. Dr Ken Archer, Professor of Theology and Pentecostal Studies, Southeastern University, Lakeland, FL Many Bible-believing Christians come from churches that do not believe the full scope of the spiritual gifts the New Testament talks about is suppose to last beyond the time of the apostles. Scott Camp writes as someone who used to hold such views himself, and has a pastoral heart especially for such persons who are willing to take another look at what the Bible says about the person and work of the Holy Spirit and who are open to being touched and revived afresh by the Spirit today. Amos Yong, Fuller Theological Seminary, Author, Who Is the Holy Spirit? A Walk with the Apostles Scott Camp is a Biblical scholar and a New Testament evangelist, which uniquely qualifies him to write 'A Primer on Power.' He lays bare the western church's need for fresh empowerment from the Holy Spirit. May we heed his admonition. Richard Exley Author, Man of Valor, When You Lose Someone You Love, and Deliver Me Scott Camp's book is a heartwarming invitation to open the door of the church wide to the power of the Holy Spirit and to the full spectrum of spiritual gifts that can enter as a result. He urges us all on page after page not to be afraid of what the Holy Spirit can do in powerful witness to Christ once we gain the courage to yield. Frank D. Macchia, D.Theol., D.D., Professor of Christian Theology, Vanguard University Scott Camp is an effective evangelist who has drawn thou-sands into the gospel net. He also has a secret. His ministry shifted into a higher gear after he had a dynamic encounter with the Holy Spirit. In this book, part biography and part theology, Scott tells his story and shares his secret, but most of all encourages his readers to discover the power of the Holy Spirit for themselves. R. Alan Streett, PhD Senior Research Professor of Biblical Theology, Criswell College, Dallas, Texas Dr. Scott Camp is a powerful evangelist and, in this book, Scott shares his perspective on tapping into God's power. Dr. Mike Cramer Founder, Power For Living Ministry, Lead Pastor, New Life Church, Author, Power Moments. Scott Camp's little book is an incredible melding of sophisticated Biblical scholarship with spirit-filled insight and engaging story-telling. It diagnoses without hesitation what is wrong with the church today and prescribes exactly what is required.
