Koo Dong Yun is Associate Professor of Theology at Bethany College, California. He earned his Ph.D. degree from the Graduate Theological Union, Berkeley, California. Also, Dr. Yun holds two masters degrees (M.Div., M.S.T.) from Yale University Divinity School.
Professor Koo D. Yun has given us a rich exposure to the various
viewpoints offered on the Baptism in the Holy Spirit across
confessional and denominational lines. Those who are tired of
well-worn arguments and counterarguments on the nature of
Spiritbaptism will find Yun's book a breath of fresh air. He
challenges Pentecostal and Non-Pentecostal theologians alike to
think ecumenically about Spirit baptism as a complex work of the
Spirit. I highly recommend it.

Rather than divide, the Spirit's gifts should unite the one Body of
Christ. Koo Dong Yun's book paves the road toward a holistic
theology of the Holy Spirit with signs directing us toward dialogue
between Pentecostals, Roman Catholics, and mainline
Protestants.

I commend this volume to the student who wishes a strong historical
and theological contribution to his or her understanding of Spirit
baptism. It is a serous critique of the limited perspective that
all too often characterizes Pentecostal discussionsconcerning the
baptism in the Holy Spirit here in the USA.

Prof. Yun has written the best dialectical analysis to date of
traditional and contemporary interpretations of Spirit-baptism. The
ecumenical scope of this study clarifies the issues to which
theologians of all the churches need to attend in approaching
baptism in the Holy Spirit. Prof. Yun has written a must read for
anyone involved in Pentecostal charismatic forms of prayer and for
anyone seriously interested in advancing understanding among the
churches.
