Pentecostalism is the fastest growing religious movement of our
time. The unexpected birth of the modern-day Pentecostal movement
at the doorsteps of the twentieth century is as perplexing as its
continuing existence and unprecedented expansion worldwide. Once
marginalized from public discourse, Pentecostals have entered into
mainstream culture, religion, politics, academia, and social
action. However, the unprecedented growth of Pentecostalism in all
its diversity has led to characterizations ripe with platitudes,
stereotypes, and misrepresentations. This Guide for the Perplexed
sheds light on the most persistent contrasts characterizing the
Pentecostal movement: the tension between local manifestations and
global Pentecostalism, the inconsistency between spiritual
discernment and charismatic excess, the gap between rampant
denominationalism and the pursuit of Christian unity, the disparity
between poverty among many Pentecostals and the popularity of the
prosperity gospel, the division between Oneness Pentecostals and
their trinitarian counterparts, and the worldview of Pentecostals
beyond the confines of a religious movement. Those tensions form
the essence of global Pentecostalism and represent the emergence of
a global Christian world.
Virulent anti-Catholicism was a hallmark of New England society
from the first Puritan settlements to the eve of the American
Revolution and beyond. Thus America's tactical decision during the
Revolution to form alliances with Catholics in Canada and France
ignited an awkward debate. The paradox arising out of this
partnership has been left virtually unexamined by previous
historians of the Revolution.
In Necessary Virtue Charles P. Hanson explores the disruptive
effects of the American Revolution on the religious culture of New
England Protestantism. He examines the efforts of New Englanders to
make sense of their own shifting ideas of Catholicism and
anti-Catholicism and traces the "necessary virtue" of religious
toleration to its origins in pragmatic cultural politics. To some
patriots, abandoning traditional anti-Catholicism meant shedding an
obsolete relic of the intolerant colonial past; others saw it as a
temporary concession to be reversed as soon as possible. Their Tory
opponents meanwhile assailed them all as hypocrites for making
common cause with the "papists" they had so recently despised. What
began as a Protestant crusade succeeded only with Catholic help and
later culminated in the First Amendment's formal separation of
church and state. The Catholic contribution to American
independence was thus controversial from the start.
In this felicitously written and informative book, Hanson raises
questions about difference, tolerance, and the role of religious
belief in politics and government that help us see the American
Revolution in a new light. Necessary Virtue is timely in pointing
to the historical contingency and, perhaps, the fragility of the
church-state separation that is very much a poltical and legal
issue today.
From its inception the Christian Church thought of worship and
prayer in Trinitarian terms. At the heart of this Trinitarian
concept lay the doctrine of the priesthood of Christ, which in its
liturgical expression, presented Christ not merely as the object of
prayer, but also as its mediator - prayers were directed to the
Father through Christ.;The author traces the idea of the priesthood
of Christ, and its effects on Christian worship and prayer, to its
origins with the earliest Christians and through the Arian and
Apollinarian debates. He then focuses on the Reformed tradition,
and the influences of John Calvin, John Knox, John Craig, John
McLeod Campbell, William Milligan, Theodore Beza, William Perkins,
federal theology and the Westminster tradition, through to the
present day.;The book is a history of an important doctrine, but it
also shows in a remarkable way how the doctrinal struggles within
the church have been reflected in the actual worshipping life of
the church and how they continue to be reflected today.;Redding
concludes with a number of key affirmations for a reformed
understanding of prayer and also a critique of some modern
tendencies and practices in the church.
The Anglican Communion is in turmoil. One of the great historic
pillars of Christianity, embraced by 70 million people in 164
countries, faces the real and immediate possibility of dismberment,
as the spectre of schism looms ever closer. Yet why is gay
sexuality the tinderbox that could rip the Anglican Communion
apart, and put an end to a century-old and hugely-prized
international unity, when such contentious issues as the ordination
of women, or unity discussions with other churches, failed to cause
a split? In answering this question, Stephen Bates will show that
unity has been coveted by some above integrity, and has been the
cause of vicious infighting and internal politics. In the run-up to
publication of A Church At War the author will be in the front
line, as he files regular reports on the twists and turns of
battle. His eagerly awaited book will be the only one to assess the
current state and historical context of the row, the strengths and
weaknesses of the protagonists' positions, and the tactics that
they are employing to win the day. A Church At War promises
compelling insights into a power struggle between factions
seemingly united only by their mutual antipathy, and conducted,
paradoxically, in the name of true communion.'
Journeying to Justice provides the very first comprehensive
appraisal of the tumultuous journey towards equity and
reconciliation amongst British and Jamaican Baptists across two
centuries of Christian missionary work, in which slavery,
colonialism and racism has loomed large. This ground-breaking text
brings together scholars and practitioners, lay and ordained,
peoples from a variety of culturally and ethnically diverse
backgrounds, all speaking to the enduring truth of the gospel of
Christ as a means of effecting social, political and spiritual
transformation. Journeying to Justice reminds us that the way of
Christ is that of the cross and that grace is always costly and
being a disciple demands commitment to God and to others with whom
we walk this journey of faith. At a time when the resurgence of
nationalism is threatening to polarise many nations this text
reminds us that in Christ there is solidarity amongst all peoples.
