   I am curious about the information in this book, but there is so much more truth about how Jesus has blessed and anointed the Pentecostal Movement. I look forward to more resources form the Pentecostal Publishing House. Here is a book I would like to see added as a resources to Logos ( Dictionary of Pentecostal and Charismatic )
