What is the meaning of the Holy Spirit’s activity in Luke-Acts, and what are its implications for today? Roger Stronstad offers a cogent and thought-provoking study of Luke as a charismatic theologian whose understanding of the Spirit was shaped wholly by his understanding of Jesus and the nature of the early church. Stronstad locates Luke’s pneumatology in the historical background of Judaism and views Luke as an independent theologian who makes a unique contribution to the pneumatology of the New Testament.

Este livro desenvolve em maior medida as ideias que Roger Stronstad expôs em seu trabalho bem recebido "The Charismatic Theology of St. Luke" (1984). Essas ideias incluem a definição do propósito teológico de São Lucas, o significado teológico da narrativa bíblica, e a natureza vocacional da capacitação do Espírito no corpus lucano. Há também uma discussão persuasiva sobre a unidade e a diversidade no universo neotestamentário, especialmente as maneiras pelas quais os documentos lucano, joanino e paulino contribuem para uma teologia do Espírito mais abrangente. A pneumatologia distinta de Lucas com foco no serviço também é apresentada em comparação com as pneumatologias de João e Paulo. Sem dúvida, esta obra é mais uma razão pela qual as teses de Roger Stronstad devem ser amplamente lidas e estudadas principalmente pelos pentecostais.

Em “Teologia lucana sob exame” o leitor poderá, dentre outras coisas, analisar detalhadamente os fundamentos do cristianismo neotestamentário, seus principais personagens apresentados pelo olhar de São Lucas e entender as experiências paradigmáticas que servem como modelo para a igreja de todos os tempos.
