Teacher, pastor, missionary, theologian and expository teacher par excellence are all descriptions appropriate to the broad ministry which has marked the life of N.M. Van Cleave.
Gifted by God with unusual ability, Dr. Van Cleave has made “full proof of his ministry” having devoted himself to preaching and teaching the Word for more than fifty years.
As a young man he was fortunate to have his life intercepted by the ministry of many significant Pentecostal preachers of the Gospel.
His touch with them during the first generation of Pentecostal Outpouring in North Amercia is part of the important qualification which he brings to co-authorship of Foundations of Pentecostal Theology.
He is well recognized throughout the Pentecostal movement as a faithful exegete of Scripture.
Coupling that ability with the dynamic of the expositiry mode of imparting truth, Dr. Van Cleave’s contribution to this comprehensive work is most appropriate.
