Helps our understanding of vicious attacks
By Troy Edwards
I read the first edition some years ago and decided to buy the updated edition from Amazon.com. Rev. DeArteaga shows that throughout history there has always been what he terms a "Pharasaicle" attitude towards certain movements within the body of Christ. He shows how those who have stood against these movements have "quenched" what the Spirit of God was doing. He then shows how this same pharisee type of attitude is used against the Word of Faith movement and the Pensacola and Toronto revivals.
He uses the writings of men such as Dave Hunt, Hank Hanegraaf, and D.R. MConnell to show the error of their attacks. He also shows how Charles Farah attempted to point out problems in the WOF movement without going to the ungodly extreme that Hanegraaf, McConnel, and Hunt did thereby falling into error themselves. No one would deny that there have been problems and errors in the WOF movement but it is an even graver thing to accuse these men of being herectical and cultic.
Rev. DeArteaga's book is very helpful from a historic standpoint and although he attempted to defend E.W. Kenyon I do not believe that he totally helped his cause too much. ... For a more accurate picture of Kenyon's life and the origins of his theology I would suggest reading "E.W. Kenyon: The True Story" by Joe McIntyre.
However, I still recommend this book for it's historical content and it's ability to look at the controversial Word of Faith movement from another Christian's perspective. Finally, I would recommend "Heresy Hunters" and "Bleading Hearts and Propaganda: The Fall of Reason in the Church" both by James R. Spencer. While you are at it by "Christianity in Power" by Michael Bruno.
For the truth about balance in Word of Faith buy "Faith, Foolishness, or Presumption" by Dr. Fredereick K.C. Price.

a defining work
By Raincheck
I held off getting this book because it was my (false) impression that the defense of the charismatic position had no biblical backing. I also trusted that Hanegraaff and MacArthur's caricatures of charismatics were the norm. It had not yet occurred to me that the case for biblical charismata has both biblical and historical evidence on its side. The Apostle Paul criticized the Corinthians for spiritual pride and lack of order but he never dismissed the manifestations as false nor did he tell them to cease pursuing them.
DeArteaga quite capably states that the burden of proof lies with the opponents of the charismata to prove that the gifts are no longer active. In Quenching The Spirit, the author makes the case that charismatic critics have yielded to the spirit of the Pharisees time and time again throughout church history, repeatedly denying, allegorizing or explaining away tons of scriptures as well as ignoring various historical outbreaks of revival simply because they could not control living stones!
This is one thorough scholarly defense, and is written with a peaceful pastoral heart and a love for the brethren which once again is in line with the biblical spirit. I would dock him half a star for calling Kenneth Copeland's take on Jesus as a god-man as "completetly orthodox" because in the same sermon Copeland says Jesus had to be a god-man "just like the first one" (Adam), but I honestly believe it was a simple oversight on DeArteaga's part since he quotes the whole section anyway so anyone can read it for themselves.
DeArteaga's credentials (and extensive notes section) prove you don't have to commit intellectual suicide in becoming charismatic. He even gives quantum physics a moderate tackle in one chapter, correlating it with an idealistic view of faith. He neither brushes off excesses nor errors, but they are dealt with a kind apologetic. As are the critics of the movement I should add which is probably more than their judgemental rants deserve. See the sympathetic chapter devoted to critic Dave Hunt's life. There are no straw men nor is there any name-calling in this book.
BTW, another plus: it has thick paper so your highlighter won't bleed through the pages when making notes!

Excellent resource, timeless classic, a must read
By Lisa Rosenthal
Quenching the Spirit is a must have for any Christian library. What DID St. Paul mean when he wrote, "Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption"(NIV Ephesians 4:30)? Rev. De Arteaga provides a meticulously researched historical overview of this trap we humans fall into time and time again.
Even the godliest Christians will sometimes have a little Pharisee within. The work of the Holy Spirit threatens our comfort zone. We love it when it's manageable. But as soon as God is clearly in control instead of us, that gets uncomfortable. Read this book and see there's nothing new about that. "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever."(NIV Hebrews 13:8) And so are we! By understanding what De Arteaga terms "Quenching the Spirit" we can gain historical perspective and ability to recognize when it happens today--hopefully avoiding it's pitfalls.
Where do YOU fall within the spectrum of Pharisee to Charismatic?
