  • Pentecostal History
    Pentecostal History By Tim Naab Psalms 19:7 The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple. Isaiah 8:16-20 Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples. And I will wait upon the LORD, that hideth his face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for him. Behold, I and the children whom the LORD hath given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the LORD of hosts, which dwelleth in mount Zion. And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead? To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them. "The loud speaker or singer believes that his self-induced hypnotic trance is *enthusiasm and he believes that this means that god is within. He doesn't know that Philo coined this word to describe those afflicted, as in Corinth, with enthus o mania - just momentary insanity. Philo "developed a doctrine of ecstasy or ek-stasis, which means standing outside oneself.' This is the highest form of piety which lies beyond faith. This mysticism unites prophetic ecstasy with *'enthusiasm', a word which comes from en-theos-mania, meaning to possess the divine. From this there comes finally the fully developed mystical system of the Neo-Platonists, for example, of Dionysus the Areopagite.

  • Drag Queens and Farting Preachers: American Televangelism, Participatory Media, and Unfaithful Fandoms
    Drag Queens and Farting Preachers: American Televangelism, Participatory Media, and Unfaithful Fandoms by Denis J. Bekkering A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Religious Studies Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2015 © Denis J. Bekkering 2015 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract Studies of religion and fandom have generally considered sincere devotion a fundamental point of contact between the two cultural phenomena, an assumption not reflected in fan studies proper. This dissertation aims to expand the scope of research on religion and fandom by offering cultural histories of “unfaithful” fan followings of three controversial American televangelists – Robert Tilton, Tammy Faye Bakker/Messner, and Jim Bakker – dating from the 1980s to 2012, and consisting of individuals amused by, rather than religiously affiliated with, their chosen television preachers. It is argued that through their ironic, parodic, and satirical play with celebrity preachers widely believed to be religious fakes, these unfaithful fans have engaged in religious work related to personal and public negotiations of authentic Christianity. Additionally, it is demonstrated that through their activities, and in particular through their media practices, these fans have impacted the brands and mainstream representations of certain televangelists, and have provoked ministry responses including dismissal, accommodation, and counteraction. iii Acknowledgements Family comes first. My wife Erica is the main reason that this project has been completed.

    Spiritual Warfare Vol ume 1 Joseph A Cortes 1 Spiritual Warfare, Volume 1 Table of Contents Fit for the Spiritual Fight 1 Are You Ready for Boot Camp? 10 Was Satan a Cherubim? 22 Seducing Spirits, another Gospel, another Jesus 39 The Perverting of the Church 56 God of this World 65 Damnable Prosperity Doctrine 73 Wheat and Tares, Part 1 86 Wheat and Tares, Part 2 97 Do not be Complacent 109 Misusing and Misapplying Scripture 124 No Condemnation 134 Fit for the Spiritual Fight Spiritual warfare is what I believe Christians should spend more than half their studies on. Once you become a Christian, the battle line is drawn, and the devil, his demonic army, and all the evil spirits under his control try to destroy the trust and faith you have with God and Christ Jesus. The last thing the devil wants to see is you reconciling your connection back with God and Jesus Christ and His blood. As soon as you draw that battle line and become a new convert for Christ, you are in a fight between eternal life and eternal death. For that reason, Christians should spend the first three years after being converted understanding what the Good News of the Gospel of Jesus Christ is all about and what Christ did for them. This should be an intense study and they should live daily increasing their knowledge of what the Bible has to say about spiritual warfare. It is that important. Unfortunately, this is not always available. I challenge you, go to any university or Christian related Bible college and see for yourselves how much time is dedicated to understanding this subject.
