"Can anything orthodox come from Pentecostalism?" This recasting of
Nathaniel's familiar question from the Gospel is a fair summary of
many modern Christians' assessment of the Pentecostal tradition.
Yet in recent years, a growing number of Pentecostals have been
turning afresh to the ancient, creedal Christian faith. Bishop
Emilio Alvarez has himself been at the forefront of this movement.
In Pentecostal Orthodoxy he introduces the phenomenon, and extends
the project of paleo-orthodox ressourcement (associated with
scholars such as Thomas Oden and Robert Webber) to include orthodox
expressions within Pentecostalism, particularly his own Afro-Latino
Pentecostal movement. This book is a manifesto of sorts, promising
not only to open up the possibility of a genuinely orthodox
Pentecostalism, but to reframe modern ecumenical dialogue as well.
