"Geoff Thomas is a Reformed statesman--one of the remarkable
figures in the modern church who is truly committed to Reformed
ecumenicity. For that reason alone, this tribute is appropriate.
You will note that men from a number of church backgrounds (both
credo-Baptist and paedo-Baptist) have contributed to this birthday
present. Those readers who know Geoff have found much pleasure and
edification in his company, and all who read these articles will
find the same." --Joseph Pipa, president, Greenville Presbyterian
Theological Seminary, Taylors, South Carolina
"Geoffrey Thomas is known and respected far and wide for his love
for the doctrines of grace and warm-heartedness as a pastor. I am
grateful to have known him over the years and to be invited now to
commend this festschrift with its helpful essays illustrating the
importance of the Holy Spirit's work in saving sinners, in
promoting their holiness and spiritual growth, and in supplying
biblical preaching past and present." -- Maurice Roberts
"What better way to give thanks to God for the gracious work of the
Holy Spirit in and through a dear father and brother in Christ than
by directing hearts and minds to grow in delight in and reverence
for the Holy Spirit? This diverse collection of essays challenges
us to search the Scriptures to know the Spirit, see His work, and
stand in wonder and worship before the triune God." -- William
VanDoodewaard, associate professor of church history, Puritan
Reformed Theological Seminary, Grand Rapids, Michigan
