pneumaformity: transformation by the spirit in paul

＂Beliefs about the Holy Spirit have clear implications for all of Christian life. Pneumaformity surveys Paul’s letters for clarity on these teachings. By incorporating Paul’s Trinitarian framework behind teachings about God and Christ with specific mentions of the Spirit, New Testament scholar and longtime pastor Mark Keown gives readers eyes to see the expansive nature of Paul’s pneumatology. Prominent recent studies elevate the themes of ＂Christoformity＂ and ＂Cruciformity＂ in Paul’s writings, but few sufficiently account for the Holy Spirit, the instrument through whom radical living is possible. This study dives into Paul’s teachings on the following aspects of the Spirit’s agency: the Spirit’s participation in conversion, role in forming Christian character, integrating work within the Christian community, missional engagement, place in the believer’s final eschatological transformation. Keown shows how Paul infused his Christological language with pneumatological realities, offering readers a fuller understanding of the Spirit’s work in individuals, the church, and the world＂--
