In this volume, you will find thorough explanations of the fundamental doctrines of the Christian church, presented not as a theory, but as teaching to be believed and practiced. Those doctrines that are considered to be "distinctives" of the Pentecostal movement (Divine healing, the Baptism with the Holy Spirit, and spiritual gifts) are given more extensive treatment.Co-authored by seasoned and trustworthy men who devoted their lives to scholarly study of the Word, systematic teaching, and expository preaching, this book provides an unmatched resource for all who seek to know sound doctrine that can be incorporated into life and ministry.

For years this book was one of the very precious few on Pentecostal theology available. Unfortunately Pentecostals were amazingly slow to put their distinctive theology into a comprehensive work. That has changed now and you can find works from Pentecostal scholars on theology and doctrine but it is a relatively recent development.This book, when it could be found, filled a great role for Bible students and ministers for studying doctrine. Twenty years ago I could find nothing else like it. The AG, CoG, nor even my own fellowship, the PHC, had anything of the sort. Because there was no such work available the authors, who were teachers in a Foursquare Bible College, put this work together.Even now this book is an excellent study of the major doctrines of the Pentecostal movement (non-Weslyan variety). It is written in a very ordered and structured way and teachers will find that helpful. The book reads very well considering it is a theology book. It flows well. I can't imagine why any of the previous reviewers would have found such problems with this book. If you are a Pentecostal or Charismatic minister/teacher/preacher and you can find a copy of this book it needs to be in your library.
I've had "Foundations of Pentecostal Theology" for about a year now. There have been quite a few times over the past 12 months where I've turned to it for a succinct, clear summary of various pentecostal/interdenominational views. Each time I've been impressed how fair and thorough Van Cleave and Duffield are in this work. Even if you don't agree with their viewpoints, you will admit that they've done their homework! I especially liked their treatment of "Once Saved Always Saved," which is a voice of reason in an emotionally charged issue.
This book will change any Christians life for the better.... if you're not sure about Pentecost... speaking and praying in tongues.... the gifts of the Holy Ghost... and just wanting to grow in the Lord.... this is the book for you it will change your life...
All I can say is WOW! This book does a very good job of explaining Pentecostal theology. The book is very well organized, it is easy to go right to the information you need. Unfortunately many reference books of this type are poorly organized and information is hard to find. This book is an exception to that rule. I own one copy and have already purchased one for a colleague. I recommend it highly.
Best theological book I've ever read! It is simplistic, yet complex. However, makes every biblical concept easy to understand. I highly recommend this book to anyone, but especially those that seek further understanding of the Christian faith.
Been reading this book since I was 17 it was my first copy. Yea its basic as some of the reviews on has said but to understand theology you need to know the basics. These are basixs that are in-depth
Most complete work of Systematic Theology from a Pentecostal/Full Gospel perspective. Every pastor needs this book in his/her library. I certainly wish this had been available when I was a student at Mount Vernon Bible College.
This work has been compiled and layed out for the novice and the serious Bible student alike. The authours give a fundemental insight into Pentecoastal theology and biblical principals that is unmatched in any text that I have read to date. A must for any pastor or minister of the gospel.
