Every tenant is thoroughly drenched in the New Testament church's teachings. Where necessary references were made to numerous Pentecostal denominations and Spirit-filled independent churches to establish the essence of the tenants for a Spirit-filled church. Furthermore, extensive research was done going back as far as possible to the early writings, dating from 300 A.D. that were available and their comment regarding the Apostolic Church Age in the first century. Many contemporary theologians from all denominations were also referenced to compare the various denominational understandings of certain tenets that are aligned with Spirit-filled denominations.
From research done, it is evident that the Holy Spirit began a new work amongst born-again believers. This new outpouring began in 1902 in a small town in Wales. Flowing from this outpouring, one of the first Spirit-filled denominations formed has grown into a worldwide church known as the Apostolic Church UK. From 1914, the Holy Spirit began moving all over the world and the establishment of Spirit-filled churches, also known as the Pentecostal denomination, and, more recently the establishment of the Independent Non-denominational Spirit-filled churches. Many of these denominations and books from seminary lecturers were obtained to consider the truths embedded in the tenants of the Spirit-filled doctrine. This book is, therefore, a compilation of more than one hundred years of ministry drawn together to set in order the tenets that must remain in every Spirit-filled church.

This book was first written in a shorter format and self-published. All the publishing rights are held by the author. From time-to-time several buyers asked for clarification and further teaching on the tenets. After responding to the requests, the Holy Spirit led me to revise the manuscript, expand it extensively, and revise some of the teachings.
