Wherever Christianity has been a living power the doctrine of the Holy Spirit has uniformly been regarded equally with the Atonement and Justification by faith as the article of a standing or falling church. The distinctive feature of Christianity as it addresses itself to man's experience is the work of the Spirit which not only elevates it far above all philosophical speculation but also above every other form of religion.That the Holy Spirit is to be publicly owned and equally honored with the Father and the Son is very evident from the terms of the great commission "Go ye therefore and teach all nations baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit."
