  • The Holiness Movement the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly Part 1
    Community Bible Church Instructor: Bill Combs THE HOLINESS MOVEMENT THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE UGLY PART 1 I. INTRODUCTION A. Though the title of this series is “The Holiness Movement,” we actually will be taking a more comprehensive historical perspective. What is technically called the Holiness movement, as we will see, developed out of the Methodist Church in the middle of the 19th century (the 1800s) in American. It was an attempt to preserve the teachings on holiness of John Wesley (1703–1791), the founder of Methodism. Wesley came up with the new and unique idea of a second transforming work of grace that is distinct from and subsequent to the new birth. This second blessing of entire sanctification is just as powerful and transforming as the first transforming work of grace—the new birth or regeneration. The Methodist Church eventually forsook Wesley’s view of sanctification at the end of the 19th century, but the Holiness Movement continued to champion Wesley’s view. Part of this Holiness tradition led to what is called the Keswick (the “w” is silent) movement. It is the particular form of Holiness teaching found in the Keswick movement that is of most interest to us in our study the next few weeks. The Keswick movement began at the end of the 19th century and in the 20th century became the most common way of understanding the Bible’s teaching on holiness in fundamentalism and most churches in the broader evangelical tradition—Baptist churches, Bible churches, some Presbyterian churches (also many parachurch organizations, such as Campus Crusade for Christ).

Lowery Phoebe Palmer has long been a source of inspiration as well as a center of controversy within the Wesleyan/Holiness Movement. In 1838 she began to speak at camp meetings for the purpose of promoting “holi - ness,” not only the doctrine, but the experience which she had personally encountered a year earlier. At the end of the following year she initiated a weekly meeting on Tuesdays in her home with the same goal. In spite of chronic health problems, she continued the camp meeting visits until her death some thirty-five years later. En route, she spent four years promot - ing holiness in the British Isles through revival services.

    Methodist Hist01y, 36:4 (April 1999) IDSTORICAL SOCIETY OF THE UNITED METHODIST CHURCH ANNUAL MEETING OPENING PLENARY FIRST UNITED METHODIST CHURCH LITTLE ROCK, ARKANSAS SEPTEMBER 18, 1998 3:00 P.M. President John Sims, Presiding. The meeting opened with an invocation by Robert Rosas, and recognition of distinguished guests. With no dissent, the Society approved the minutes of its 1997 meeting. Millard Mead presented the Treasurer's Report which showed a balance of $1,859.01 but which did not include expenses yet unpaid. The Society accepted the Treasurer's Report. Lyle Johnston presented the auditor's report which had found the Treasurer's report accurate. Following Mead's presentation of a proposed 1999 budget, Sims presented three motions which had been approved by the Society's Board of Directors. All three motions were adopted by voice vote. There were some dissenting votes. Membership dues shall be added to the annual meeting fees for all who are not HSUMC members except for those meetings which happen at Society con­ vocations where other membership recruitment techniques shall be exercised. Individual membership dues shall be raised to $30 per year with discounts for various categories like multiple-year, student, and fa1nily n1emberships. The President shall appoint a me1nbership recruit111entlretention conunittee. During the discussion which followed the adoption of the three motions, Pat Thompson stressed the importance of including in the next Historian's Digest an explanation for the raise in dues. 277 278 Methodist History Without dissent, the Society adopted the 1999 budget proposed by Mead. This budget is much like the 1998 budget, the major differences being an increase in annual meeting and Historian's Digest expenditures, a decrease in program and administration costs, and an increase in income from membership dues.

  • Women in the Wesleyan and United Methodist Traditions: a Bibliography
    1 Women in the Wesleyan and United Methodist Traditions: A Bibliography Edited by Susan E. Warrick The General Commission on Archives and History The United Methodist Church P.O. Box 127, 36 Madison Ave. Madison, New Jersey 1991, 2003 INTRODUCTION The history of women in the Wesleyan and United Methodist tradition is one of almost ceaseless activity. From faithful attendance in worship to service as missionaries, teachers, pastors' wives, preachers, organizers, and reformers, women stepped from their homes into a needy world. In the fruitful collaboration of women and the church is written much of the history of the Wesleyan movement. Women's church work is also the foundation of their involvement in social and political reform. This bibliography reflects the rich variety of women's work in the church; however, one of the lessons learned early in the process was that scholars have only begun to recover and interpret the history of that work. We hope that this bibliography will spur examination of some long-neglected areas. This effort is indebted to Kenneth E. Rowe's pioneering contribution, Methodist women: a guide to the literature (1980), the first comprehensive bibliography of titles related to women in the Wesleyan tradition. For several years thereafter, Carolyn DeSwarte Gifford and Karen Heetderks Strong, then of the General Commission staff, collected information on additional sources, keeping pace with a growing body of scholarship. The first edition of this bibliography incorporated their work with my own, and was completed in 1991. The current edition includes titles published up through December 2001. This bibliography is extensive, but it cannot claim to be exhaustive.

  • The 1868 Manheim Camp Meeting of the National Holiness Association by William Kostlevy, 1997
    Christian Perfectionism in Pennsylvania Dutch Country: The 1868 Manheim Camp Meeting of the National Holiness Association by William Kostlevy, 1997 [Editor's note: William Kostlevy is the archivist for Asbury Theological Seminary in Wilmore, Kentucky. He was the Fall 1997 Fellow at the Elizabethtown College Young Center for the Study of Anabaptist and Pietist Groups. The following material was taken from a larger paper presented by the author at the Young Center on November 13, 1997. We wish to thank the author and the Young Center of Elizabethtown College for allowing THE CHRONICLE to print the results of Professor Kostlevy's research in this form.] Introduction One of the most significant inter-denominational religious phenomena of the late nineteenth century, the Holiness Movement was committed to the propagation of a second religious experience following conversion variously called Christian perfection, entire sanctification, full salvation, the baptism of the Holy Spirit, heart purity, or the second blessing. Although historically rooted in eighteenth century Methodism, especially in the writings of John Wesley and John Fletcher, perfectionist elements in the Wesleyan revival found fertile soil among both plain and Lutheran/Reformed Pennsylvania German evangelicals. 1 Former Mennonites Martin Boehm and Christian Newcomer, founders (along with Reformed pastor Philip William Otterbein) of the United Brethren in Christ Church, joined Methodism's circuit-riding bishop Francis Asbury and former Lutheran Jacob Albright, founder of the Evangelical Association, as leaders in the spiritual awakening that swept the Pennsylvania Dutch country in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Both United Brethren and Evangelical Association members actively sought the experience of entire sanctification, or full salvation.

Outler For five full decades, John Wesley served as theological mentor to “the people called Methodists,” with no peer and no successful challengers. Throughout that half century, he was embroiled in one doctrinal controversy after another—with Anglican priests and bishops, with Calvinist partisans (clerical and lay) and with occasional dissidents within his own “connexion.” Doctrinal consensus was a prime concern with him and a prerequisite for stability in the Methodist Societies. Thus, at the outset of his first “conference” with his “assistants” (1744), the first questions posed for discussion were: (1) What to teach? (2) How to teach? (3) What to do (i.e., how to regulate our doctrine, discipline and practice)? There was, of course, no question in anyone‟s mind as to who would have the final word in these conversations but everyone agreed that these were the right questions for a religious society within an established church.
