This volume combines two Brengle classics, Guest of the SoulGuest of the Soul and When the Holy Ghost is ComeWhen the Holy Ghost is Come, and is edited for modern readership by popular author (and long-time Brengle devotee) Bob Hostetler. Brengle’s authentic voice remains strong, now able to more relevantly engage today’s disciples with answers to the essential questions about the Holy Spirit, ranging in topics such as his identity, praying to him, and his role in sanctification. The great international evangelist and teacher of holiness applied his passion and pen to these topics and more in his thorough and practical book about the person and work of the Holy Spirit.
Samuel Logan Brengle (1860 - 1936)
Was an American Methodist born in Indiana who joined the Salvation Army in the 1890s. He was mightily used of the Lord--even more so through his many books, which were chiefly written during a convalescence following being badly injured while street preaching. He was described by one observer as a kindly, literate and articulate man who left good memories with nearly everyone he met.He described his experience as being a full immersion in the love of God. He would later write of the experience: I walked out over Boston Common before breakfast, weeping for joy and praising God. Oh, how I loved! In that hour I knew Jesus, and I loved Him till it seemed my heart would break with love. I was filled with love for all His creatures. I heard the little sparrows chattering; I loved them. I saw a little worm wriggling across my path; I stepped over it; I didn’t want to hurt any living thing. I loved the dogs, I loved the horses, I loved the little urchins on the street, I loved the strangers who hurried past me, I loved the heathen, I loved the whole world. This experience would become his life's focus as he taught and admonished believers to seek 'the blessing' on an international level.
