Pentecostal/Charismatic Movements Page 1 Pentecostal Movement The first two hundred years (100-300 AD) The emphasis on the spiritual gifts was evident in the false movements of Gnosticism and in Montanism. The result of this false emphasis caused the Church to react critically against any who would seek to use the gifts. These groups emphasized the gift of prophecy, however, there is no documentation of any speaking in tongues. Montanus said that “after me there would be no more prophecy, but rather the end of the world” (Philip Schaff, History of the Christian Church, Vol II, p. 418). Since his prophecy was not fulfilled, it is obvious that he was a false prophet (Deut . 18:20-22). Because of his stress on new revelations delivered through the medium of unknown utterances or tongues, he said that he was the Comforter, the title of the Holy Spirit (Eusebius, V, XIV).

Tradition and Change in Methodism
Easter 2006 Tradition and Change in Methodism William J. Abraham ohn Wesley (1703–1791), the founder of that Christian tribe we generally identify as Methodists or Wesleyans, was a stouthearted Protestant. Epistemologically he Jbelieved in sola scriptura as embedded in a wider vision of divine revelation that was generally skeptical of natural and speculative theology. His ponderings on the insecurity of natural theology left him at one stage thoroughly unsettled and close to suicide. It is true that his ponderings on the veridicality of religious experience brought him to an aggressive commitment to genuine perception of the divine that was organized in and around a novel appeal to the inner witness of the Holy Spirit. Yet even these ponderings, to be valid, had to be secured by appeal to scripture. Hence he developed his epistemo- logical ramblings through exegesis of scriptural texts like Ephesians 2:8, Hebrews 11:1, and most especially Romans 8:15–17. So Wesley’s spiritual empiricism, while it was foun- dational in the sense that it posited a form of perception of the divine that was direct and noninferential, was also derived from scripture. Wesley wanted nothing less than revela- tory foundations for his foundations. Every thought, including our thoughts about thought itself, had to be brought captive to Christ. Tradition was important, but it was altogether secondary. By tradition, Wesley meant the non-biblical tradition of the church developed before the fourth century (Constantine was the great Corrupter), a tradition that was recaptured by the Anglican Reformation. Its role was hermeneutical, not epistemological. It enabled one to read scripture better; it was radically subordinate epistemologically to scripture.

The Church and Social Christianity As an Agent of Ecumenical Activity: The
The Church and Social Christianity as an agent of ecumenical activity: the British Methodist contribution to the nascent Life and Work movement and precursor of the World Council of Churches Dedication This paper is dedicated to a great pioneer of ecumenical studies in the context of his expertise in systematic theology and in liturgy. I mean, of course, Geoffrey Wainwright, who contributed to so many of these Oxford Institutes up to the last and was a giant in the over 50 years of Methodist – Catholic and other international dialogues. 35 years ago now, he published a chapter in his book The Ecumenical Moment [Eerdmans, 1983] entitled Revolution and Quietism. It has been one of the inspirations for this paper, presented now in the section of the Institute he once co-chaired, at a conference now looking at aspects of revolution and reform from many aspects within Methodism. He seeks within his essay to find a via media in terms of the engagement of religion and society, of the Church and the World, for quiet revolution and revolutionary quiet, in which to seek forgiveness and reconciliation grounded in a universal ethic of love, freely and indiscriminately given. It is in this most catholic spirit of our Founding Father`s praxis and teaching that I seek to offer as a reflection a fresh reading of the ecumenical movement in which he was so immersed. I want to argue that the quiet revolution in ecumenism will work (and can be seen to have worked throughout) in peaceful social action for change and the common good.

89 ARTICLES "The Charismatic Wiggle": United Methodism's Twentieth-Century Neo-Pentecostal Impulses Michael T. Girolim
89 ARTICLES "The Charismatic Wiggle": United Methodism's Twentieth-Century Neo-Pentecostal Impulses Michael T. Girolimon In July, 1978, Harold K. Bales, Director of Evangelization Development of the United Methodist Board of Discipleship, cheerfully acknowledged to the participants of the Conference on the Holy Spirit and Church Growth at the First United Methodist Church in Jonesboro, Arkansas that the Charismatic Renewal had directly impacted the spiritual experience of many in the denomination. Yet, he also cautioned against exaggerating these revitalizing trends: "What we have casually called a 'charismatic movement' is more like a 'charismatic wiggle.' In the context of this whole great body, United Methodism, these stirrings are rather localized, spasmodic twitches." Nevertheless Bales expressed the desire that these forces might one day coalesce into "a great movement."' This article will attempt to trace the main contours of the development and nature of the impulses of the neo-Pentecostal or Charismatic Renewal within the United Methodist Church from the early 1950s through the late 1980s. Around 1960, the Charismatic movement, with its Pentecostal-like theology and praxis, erupted within virtually all Christian traditions in America, including Methodism.2 Given the absence of any detailed historical treatment of their ' The author would like to thank Professors Edwin S. Gaustad and Robert J. Williams for their careful reading and critique of this manuscript. Harold K. Bales, "Then God Will Have a Movement On His Hands," Manna: Newsletter of the United Methodist Renewal Services Fellowship 2 (September 1978): 1. 2 Historians of religion in America generally date the start of the Charismatic movement with the spiritual experiences of Episcopalian priest Dennis J.

6. 'Calvinism' and 'Arminianism'
6. ‘Calvinism’ and ‘Arminianism’ In this section of our report we turn, as we have been asked to do, to an area of doctrine that, in the past, has been contested within the traditions of our churches, but that also has significant implications for mission and evangelisation today. The issues are far from dead: for example they are sometimes aggressively promoted in university and college Christian Unions. We believe that the challenge of the mission of the Church today is the proper context within which the tension expressed in the historic terms ‘Calvinism’ and ‘Arminianism’ should be considered. The terms ‘Calvinist’ and ‘Calvinism’ usually refer to a specific aspect of the theology of salvation (soteriology) that arose from the teaching of the French Reformer John Calvin (1509-1564) in Geneva. Drawing extensively on the theology of St Augustine of Hippo, and deploying a wide range of biblical material, Calvin applied the doctrine of the sovereignty of God with some logical rigour to the work of grace in the individual.1 His teaching on unconditional election, with its corollary of double predestination (predestination to salvation or damnation) was further developed by later Reformed theologians and was articulated by the Synod of Dort in 1618-19. To reject that particular tenet is not to disown the Reformed tradition as a whole or to disparage Calvin’s massive contribution to the Christian theological tradition, particularly through his Institutes of the Christian Religion and his many commentaries on the books of the Bible. The whole question was been recast by Karl Barth in the mid-twentieth century, who placed the decrees of God and the destiny of the whole human race within Christology: Jesus Christ is both the Elect of God and the one rejected by God.

The Methodist Protestant Church in Northeast Pennsylvania
12 The Chronicle 2011 The Methodist Protestant Church in Northeast Pennsylvania This collection of three articles attempts to fill in some holes in the available information about the Methodist Protestant Church in northeast Pennsylvania. The Methodist Protestant Church was born in 1830 when so-called Reformers left the Methodist Episcopal Church to create an organization with less centralized structure and more lay representation at all levels. It ceased to exist as a denomination in 1939 when it re-united with the Methodist Episcopal Church and the Methodist Episcopal Church South to form the Methodist Church. The first article by Milton Loyer tells the story of the 15 Methodist Protestant congregations existing in northeast Pennsylvania in 1939 when the denomination joined the Methodist union. Because of the decentralized nature of the denomination, each Methodist Protestant congregation was free to determine its own fate. In the end, five of the fifteen congregations participated in the union – and two of those congregations exist today in the Susquehanna Conference of the United Methodist Church. From 1830 to 1939 there were many other Methodist Protestant congregations in the seven northeast Pennsylvania counties of Bradford, Susquehanna, Wayne, Wyoming, Luzerne, Lackawanna and Pike. Perhaps a future article will be able to document the stories of all of those congregations and charges that did not survive until the 1939 Methodist union. The second article by Reverends Tagg and Brown is a fascinating account of the involvement of northeast Pennsylvania in the Methodist Protestant division of 1858 to 1877. The denomination split into two competing bodies in 1858, with the dissenting denomination later taking the name Methodist Church.
