LaHaye, Tim F.

Spirit-controlled temperament / Tim LaHaye. - Wheaton, Ill. : Tyndale House, ©1966. - 141 pages : illustrations ; 21 cm

You're born with it! -- Temperament can be changed! -- Meet the four temperaments -- Temperament strengths -- Temperament weaknesses -- The spirit-filled temperament -- How to be filled with the Holy Spirit -- Grieving the Holy Spirit through anger -- Quenching the Holy Spirit through fear -- Depression, its cause and cure -- How to overcome your weaknesses -- Spirit-modified temperaments.

Everyone is a curious mixture of weaknesses and strengths, and there's a reason. Everyone has inherited a distinct temperament -- predominantly sanguine, choleric, melancholy, or phlegmatic, with a combination of traits from two or more groups. Given a person's natural temperament, the Holy Spirit can manifest supernatural characteristics in his life. God's Spirit can release an individual from a life of anger, fear, depression, indecisiveness, instability, and restlessness, and can give a new freedom of peace, purpose, self-control, and dignity.
