This doubt cast its shadow on those who promote baptism in the Holy Spirit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNow new evidence has been found in early post-biblical authors (Tertullian, Hilary of Poitiers, Cyril of Jerusalem, John Chrysostom, Philoxenus, and the Syrians) which demonstrates that what is called baptism in the Holy Spirit was integral to Christian initiation (baptism, confirmation, Eucharist). Because it was part of initiation into the Church, it was not a matter of private piety, but of public worship. Therefore it was and remains normative.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is an intriguing ground-breaking study of value to RCIA teams, pastors, theology teachers and students, and Church offices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kilian McDonnell, George Montague\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Glazier Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/1991\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 416\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.98h x 5.99w x 1.24d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780814650097\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eMcDonnell, Kilian:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Kilian McDonnell, OSB, is a monk\/theologian of Saint John's Abbey, Collegeville, Minnesota.
