    263 Re-armed" he pointed to an urgent task - this was in 1950 - which was the prevention of any conniving at a continuation of German militarism. "It is not dead : it'will take a generation to get it out of the blood. Until then it is dangerous policy to encourage a revival of militarism in a people who have proved themselves more aggressive and vastly more efficient than Russia or any other European people". (4) In the same year Hunter referred to an over-riding political issue by quoting Archbishop C. F. Garbett, his much-esteemed metropolitan, 'Our party politics are the games of children playing on the sands compared with the... necessity of finding some agreement by which this ghastly threat to the human race (sc. the hydrogen bomb) can be removed. ' This can only be done, Hunter commented, "by an effective, realistic attempt once again to reach agreement with Russia". (5) He did not venture on any political theorising as to how agreement might be forthcoming. He could console himself with the thought that this was the -ý ölitician's task into which sphere the layman should not enter. Ten years later in the House of Lords Hunter spoke cogently in the_. debate on Disarmament and indicated underlying human factors which politicians ought to keep in mind. He supported the Archbishop of York (A. M. Ramsey) who had intervened earlier to say that "the right moral demand is... for disarmament by agreement" (6) and had listened to Viscount Alexander of Hillsborough's patriotic statement "I will never submit to my country being put into the unilateral position of being the only main Power that provides 264 no defence for the rights of its citizens".

    Lewi Pethrus' Ecclesiological Thought 1911-1974: a Transdenominational

    Lewi Pethrus’ Ecclesiological Thought 1911-1974: A Transdenominational Pentecostal Ecclesiology by Tommy Henrik Davidsson A Thesis Submitted to the University of Birmingham for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY School of Philosophy, Theology and Religion College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham March 2012 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT This thesis is a diachronic investigation of Lewi Pethrus’ ecclesiological thought from 1911 to 1974. The research employs Roger Haight’s transdenominational ecclesiology as its methodological framework. Since Haight’s methodology is based on a concrete ecclesiological method that emphasises the importance of a historical consciousness in ecclesiology, the study particularly focuses on the formative contexts that shaped Pethrus’ ecclesiology. The emphasis on formative contexts not only explains why certain ecclesiological concepts arose at particular points in Pethrus’ life but also clarifies why concepts were abandoned or developed over time. A vital part of Haight’s methodology is also to examine the religious values that remain constant and significantly form ecclesiological views. The thesis argues that Pethrus’ ecclesiology is shaped by a Pentecostal form of spirituality that has ‘loving Christ and loving neighbour’ as its core values.
