Tongues and Trees: Towards a Green Pentecostal Pneumatology
Tongues and Trees: Towards a Green Pentecostal Pneumatology by AARON JASON SWOBODA 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 The University of Birmingham July 2011 1 ABSTRACT This thesis develops a Pentecostal ecotheology by utilizing key pneumatological themes that emerge from the Pentecostal tradition. It examines and utilizes the salient Pentecostal and Charismatic voices that have stimulated ecotheology in the Pentecostal tradition and situates them within the broader context of Christian ecumenical ecotheologies (Roman Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant, and Ecofeminist). These Pentecostal expressions are placed in dialogue with the particular ecological pneumatologies of Denis Edwards (Roman Catholic), Mark Wallace (Protestant), and Sallie McFague (Ecofeminist). The thesis advances a novel approach to Pentecostal ecotheology through a pneumatology of the Spirit baptized creation, the charismatic creational community, the holistic ecological Spirit, and the eschatological Spirit of ecological mission. Significantly, this thesis is the first substantive contribution to a Pentecostal pneumatological theology of creation with a particular focus on the Pentecostal community and its significance for the broader ecumenical community. Furthermore, it offers a fresh theological approach to imagining and sustaining earth-friendly practice in the twenty-first century Pentecostal church. 2 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Before continuing, some long-standing personal debts must be paid.

Conference participants explored the elements of the Christian tradition--as well as of the Eastern religious and the Native American outlooks--which could be applicable to contemporary environmental problems.. In addition they sought to grapple with such questions as: Does the environment have rights? Should the church concern itself with environmental issues? What does a land ethic consist of? How can abstract ethical positions be applied to specific land use questions? The discussion of these questions is contained in the section, Reports of Value Task Groups. In addition, the five papers presented at this conference are included in the document. The titles of these papers are: The Role of Values and Ethics in Epvironmental Concerns; Reflections on the Alleged Ecological Bankruptcy of Western Theology; Eastern-Mystical Perspectives on Environment; Ethics for Environment: Native American Insights; and A Paradigm Case in Land Use Ethics: Door County, Wisconsin. -

C. CHRISTOLOGY 1. the Person of the Redeemer
C. CHRISTOLOGY CHRIST THE MEDIATOR OF SALVATION. Our redemption was achieved completely by Christ the God-Man in His two states of exinanition and exaltation, which suggests the division of this part of dogmatics into three main heads. 1. The person of the Redeemer: He is the God-man. 2. The two states of his existence: Humiliation and Exaltation 3. The mediatorial work of Christ and his offices of Prophet, Priest, and King. 1. The Person of the Redeemer. The material will be presented under three heads. A. The two natures of Christ. B. The union of the two natures. C. The communication of idioms (idioms = attributes and activities specific to each nature). A. The Two Natures. I. Christ is true God. Note. For a presentation of the wealth of Scripture testimony on this point see the section on the Holy Trinity, I, 6 (pages 175-181). See also the Monarchian and Arian controversies (page 198-199). Colossians 2:9 For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form. II. Christ is true man. 1. This truth is stated in general terms. John 1:14 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. 1 Timothy 2:5 For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. Hebrews 2:14,17 Since the children have flesh and blood (αἵματος καὶ σαρκός), he too shared in their humanity (μετέσχεν τῶν αὐτῶν) so that by his death he might destroy him who holds the power of death—that is, the devil— 17 For this reason he had to be made like his brothers in every way, in order that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in service to God, and that he might make atonement for the sins of the people. -

Especially As Propounded by D.F. Strauss, A.E. Biedermann, and E.P.W
THE RELATION BETWEEN THE PERSON OF CHRIST AND THE PRINCIPLE OF REDEMPTION especially as propounded by D.F. Strauss, A.E. Biedermann, and E.P.W. Troeltsch Hugh Thomson Kerr, Jr., M.A., S.T.B. A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Divinity of the University of Edin burgh as partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Ph.D. degree. May, 1936 Jt'OREWURU This thesis is a study of the relation of Jesus Christ to redemption. It is essentially an historical study with special reference to the positions of three representative nineteenth century uerman theologians, Strauss, Medermann, and Troeltsch. The thesis does not claim to "be an exhaustive treat ment of the doctrine of redemption or of the Person of Christ except as the two are related in the systems of these three thinkers. Only indirectly is it concerned with the history and theological expression of the doctrine of redemption in the Christian uhurch or with such uhristological considerations as the Incarnation and Atonement of Christ. It is primarily a study of a specific problem, within a specific period of time, and as developed by a specific group of theologians. Strauss, iiiedermann, and Troeltsch held a common position in separating the person of Christ from the principle of redemption. They regarded redemption as a principle or eternal truth in its own right apart from the Person of Christ. AS over against this position, this thesis takes its stand without apology upon the evangelical experience of the uhurch which knows only a Redeemer and nothing of a principle. The first two chapters deal with the philosophical and theological tendencies in the nineteenth century as they bear upon the problem of person and principle. -
