Preface
THE Baptism of the Holy Spirit has claimed much of the public attention of late, and many sermons have been preached on it, and allusions made to it in most of the Christian assemblies met for prayer and other religious exercises. Besides, numerous tracts, essays, and books, have been written and published on this subject, and great prominence has been given to it, as though it was the chief thing now needed, both for the conversion of the world and the sanctification of the believer.
