Lamp ith this issue of Spiritus: ORU Journal of Th eology, we take opportunityW to commemorate a historic moment. Th e year 2018 marks the centennial anniversary of the birth of Oral Roberts. It would be diffi cult to overstate the importance of this towering fi gure on the American religious landscape. He was a visionary in the truest sense of the word, and over the decades often puzzled observers as his ministry changed course, not with the times, but in many ways changing the times themselves. To be sure, it would make sense for one healed so dramatically of a debilitating disease to embark upon a healing ministry. It would also make sense for one heeled in classical Pentecostalism to be a major contributor to the direction the fl edgling movement would take throughout the twentieth century. What may not seem so sensible is for one so prominent in a theological tradition caricatured, at least

    THE PHENOMENA OF THE SPIRIT A Paper Prepared for the Doctrinal Dialogue 119th North American Convention of the Church of God Anderson, Indiana June 29, 2005 Dr. James W. Lewis Professor of Christian Ethics, Anderson University School of Theology I. INTRODUCTION My assignment is a broad one. “It is to address the issues of “speaking in tongues” as the initial evidence [or sign] of the infilling of the Holy Spirit, as well as the nature of the gift of tongues. Also, the paper is to deal with physical manifestations often referred to as “laughing in the spirit,” “dancing in the spirit,” and “groaning in the spirit.” These are the specifics of my assignment. Due to the broad nature of the topic, I am limiting my response today to “Speaking in Tongues,” “Being Slain in the Spirit,” and the “Holy Laughter” phenomenon, which itself is surrounded by still other phenomena. Except for purposes of clarity, then, this paper will not involve a systematic study of the person and work of the Holy Spirit. There are significant earlier and later works on this subject.1 I am focusing more on the “phenomena” or physical “manifestations” that often have been attributed to the Holy Spirit. I believe it is crucial to acknowledge upfront that the Church of God early pioneers appeared to be open to all that the Holy Spirit might visit on them. There was a yearning for real experiences of the Holy Spirit. Certainly this desire included the acknowledgment and legitimacy of a variety of 1 Merle D.

  • Race, Technology, and Theology in the Emergence of Christian Rap Music
    Pneuma 33 (2011) 200-217 brill.nl/pneu “It’s Not the Beat, but It’s the Word that Sets the People Free”: Race, Technology, and Theology in the Emergence of Christian Rap Music Josef Sorett Assistant Professor of Religion and African-American Studies, Columbia University, New York [email protected] Abstract In an effort to address lacunae in the literature on hip hop, as well as to explore the role of new music and media in Pentecostal traditions, this essay examines rap music within the narra- tives of American religious history. Specifically, through an engagement with the life, ministry, and music of Stephen Wiley — who recorded the first commercially-released Christian rap song in 1985 — this essay offers an account of hip hop as a window into the intersections of religion, race, and media near the end of the twentieth century. It shows that the cultural and theological traditions of Pentecostalism were central to Wiley’s understanding of the significance of racial ideology and technology in his rap ministry. Additionally, Wiley’s story helps to iden- tify a theological, cultural, and technological terrain that is shared, if contested, by mainline Protestant, neo-Pentecostal, and Word of Faith Christians during a historical moment that has been described as post-denominational. Keywords Christian hip hop, Stephen Wiley, Word of Faith, racial ideology Over the past two decades a growing body of research on hip hop music and culture has taken shape. More often than not, the inquiries in this emerging literature have located hip hop (or rap) in the traditions of African American cultural (literary and musical) expression.1 Within this corpus, little attention 1 The two seminal works in the field of hip hop studies are Tricia Rose’sBlack Noise: Rap Music and Black Culture in Contemporary America (Middletown, CT: Wesleyan Press, 1993); Houston Baker’s Black Studies, Rap, and the Academy (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1993).

A few of the more well known organized groups Points of Difference Among Pentecostals are the Assemblies of God, the Church of God, and The United Pentecostal Church. There are also several "charismatic" or Key Points of Belief "pentecostal" movements within mainline denominations such Pentecostalism as the Catholics, the Baptists and the Methodists. Versus Scripture Weak Points of Thus, there are millions of Pentecostals in the United States, Pentecostalism and millions more world wide, but no one knows exactly how Review Questions many millions. There are so many different groups, some of which give no report of the size of their membership, that an References accurate count is impossible. Pentecostal preachers are among the most highly visible religious leaders in America. Oral Roberts, Jimmy Swaggart, R. W. Schambach, Kenneth Copeland and Ernest Angley are only a few of the Pentecostal "televangelists" who have become household names. The picture that many Pentecostal leaders paint of Christianity is one of emotionalism, modern miracles and money. Americans have been influenced (and some have been turned off) by this tainted view of New Testament Christianity. Christians need to be interested in correcting misconceptions in the minds of Pentecostals and non- Pentecostals alike. The truth of God needs to be vindicated in the eyes of the world, and it is the job of God's people to do it. < Point of Origin > Pentecostal churches claim to have their origins in the events that occurred in the second chapter of Acts on the first Pentecost after the resurrection of Christ.

It is one thing to stand for the truth in the face of the world’s religions, but quite another to stand for the truth against those one considers to be fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. May we all hold fast to the Word of God as given in Scripture and reject syncretizing with the world’s wisdom, which can only lead to the destruction of our souls.

  • Ballymena Beware – Yet Again! Marilyn Hickey (Plus Daughter Sarah) Returns for ‘Healing’ Services
    Ballymena Beware – Yet Again! Marilyn Hickey (plus daughter Sarah) returns for ‘healing’ services. In the Belfast Telegraph of Saturday 27 September there was an advert that read – Don’t miss Marilyn Hickey and Sarah Bowling (mother and daughter ministry team) NOVEMBER Saturday 8th 7.30pm Sunday 9th 6.00pm HEALING SERVICES Back in September 1998 I included a short article in my ministry newsletter that was entitled ‘Ballymena Beware: Marilyn Hickey is coming’. The item can be viewed on the following link (and it read as below) http://www.takeheed.info/news-from-the-front-september-1998/ Ballymena Beware (Marilyn Hickey is coming) Standard International Ministry (Maurice Wylie) announced in early June that following visits by Ulf Ekman and Jesse Duplantis (both ‘Word of Faith’ ‘health and wealth’ preachers) they would be hosting a visit by Marilyn Hickey. She is being billed as an ‘International Bible teacher.’ On page 36 of ‘Christianity in Crisis’ by Hank Hanegraaff we read this about Marilyn Hickey “Marilyn Hickey….employs a broad range of tactics to induce followers into sending her money. Among her many ploys are anointed prayer cloths, ceremonial breastplates and ropes that can be used as points of contact. In one of her appeal letters Marilyn promises she will slip into a ceremonial breastplate ‘press your prayer request to [her] heart and place your requests on [her] shoulders’ – all for a suggested donation.” On page 351 Hanegraaff quotes this instruction from Hickey “What do you need? Start creating it. Start speaking about it. Start speaking it into being…..Speak to your checkbook.
