Leader's Guide
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
I'm not sure why these two books don't have separate reviews. There is very little overlap between them, so I suggest getting both if you are reading them on your own. If you are part of a group study, you can get by without the leader's guide. For example, the student manual mentions two schools of thought about spiritual gifts: cessationist (some or all of the gifts applied only during the apostolic era) and non-cessationist (they apply today as well). The leader's guide goes on to say that there is no biblical reason to believe that any of the spiritual gifts have ceased.
Especially Applicable for Reformed Christians
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
It is hard to find good books on spiritual gifts, especially ones with a Reformed perspective (I am Christian Reformed -- CRC). Before purchasing any books, try all the free online tests that will give you a feel for what is available. Peruse some of the other books on the subject, then buy this one. It is the best -- concise information with biblical references and also suitable for a bible study environment.I would recommend that you get the Leader's Guide as well, because there are a few things that are covered in the Leader's Guide that are not in the Student Manual. For example, on the issue of whether some spiritual gifts have ceased, the Student Manual presents the two different schools of thought. The Leader's Guide goes further and says that there is not sufficient evidence to conclude that any of the spiritual gifts have ceased. By the way, this is also in agreement with the CRC's current standing regarding spiritual gifts.
