The Asbury Journal 73/1: 6-7 © 2018 Asbury Theological Seminary DOI: 10.7252/Journal.01.2018S.01 From the Editor The articles in this issue of The Asbury Journal come primarily from papers presented at the Advanced Research Programs Interdisciplinary Colloquium held at Asbury Theological Seminary on April 21, 2017. The theme of this colloquium was “Wesleyan Theology from Biblical and Missiological Perspectives.” Setting the stage for the student presentations, Dr. Laurence Wood presented a riveting paper on John Wesley’s mission to spread scriptural holiness and the theology of sanctifcation and Spirit baptism, which provides a framework for understanding the theological and missiological nature of Wesley’s work. With this historical and theological context established, the student papers were able to explore the theme in different ways through the lenses of Biblical Studies and Intercultural Studies. Susangeline Patrick examines Wesley’s view of the Imago Dei as a missiological framework for working with Lakota and other Native American tribes to help restore God’s image to a people who have often suffered the destruction of their image in American history. Timothy Christian explores Wesley’s interpretation of Revelation 20:1-10 and argues that modern Wesleyan missions and evangelism should rightfully take a historic premillennial view of this passage to be more biblically sound. Wilmer Estrada-Carrasquillo builds upon his own heritage and identity as a Latino Pentecostal to argue that Wesley’s theology provides a useful framework for embracing hospitality in reaching out to others in our work in the mission of the Church. Ryan Kristopher Giffn dives into Wesley’s view of salvation by looking at Wesley’s notes of Philippians 1:6. Three additional papers were not part of the colloquium, but ft the theme well. Howard Snyder examines the critical impact of Irenaeus on Wesley’s theology, and how that has had an effect on the way we see Wesley’s missiology. Marcus Dean examines the missiological question of how to contextualize the Wesleyan understanding of holiness. He argues that missions has often left a theological gap by focusing primarily on contextualizing the theology of salvation, but setting aside the importance of living a holy life as a refection of God’s holiness. Mark Elliott presents a fascinating glimpse into the interplay of Methodism and Eastern Orthodoxy from Wesley’s early interest in the Greek Church Fathers to modern issues and concerns between the United Methodist Church and the Soviet Union From the editor 7 into the post-Soviet era. Elliott seeks for a common ground between Methodism and Orthodoxy that might smooth the way for future mission efforts. The From the Archives essay in this issue looks back at a fascinating letter between two important women of the holiness movement. The letter is written to Hannah Whitall Smith, a Quaker who experienced sanctifcation and became interested in studying this experience and promoting it for the rest of her life. Hannah Whitall Smith wrote the holiness classic, The Christian’s Secret to a Happy Life, which is still sold and read around the world. The letter is written from Frances Havergal, a British poet and hymn writer, who wrote one of the great holiness hymns, “Take My Life and Let it Be,” which is still sung in churches all over the world. Havergal passed away at the young age of 42, and most of her work was published after her death. But this beautiful letter records Havergal’s personal account of her own experience of sanctifcation, since Hannah and her husband, Robert Pearsall Smith asked her directly for this account. Given her early death, this may be the only personal handwritten account we have of this intimate spiritual experience, and this letter allows us in to see and understand its importance for her life. As such it brings her hymn to life in a wonderfully personal way. This letter is a spiritual gem, hidden away in one of the most used collections in the Archives and Special Collections, but it defnitely deserves to be highlighted here. Increasingly in my work as editor of The Asbury Journal, I have seen a growing interest and enthusiasm for developing and thinking about a Wesleyan approach to missions. This is a topic that is underdeveloped, but well worth pursuing. Wesley’s understanding of prevenient grace and the role of sanctifcation are often overlooked by traditional Calvinistic approaches to mission, which focus more on sin and salvation as opposed to how the love of God has been at work within a culture and desires to redeem and restore not just people, but entire communities and cultures into the image of God found in Christ Jesus. My desire is that the articles in this issue might inspire more theological and missiological work of the future potential and promise of Wesleyan missions! Robert Danielson Ph.D. The Asbury Journal 73/1: 8-49 © 2018 Asbury Theological Seminary DOI: 10.7252/Journal.01.2018S.02 Laurence W. Wood John Wesley’s Mission of Spreading Scriptural Holiness: A Case Study in World Mission and Evangelism Abstract A manual of discipline, called The Large Minutes, was given to all Methodist preachers when they joined John Wesley’s annual conference, containing this explanation: “God’s design in raising up the people called ‘Methodists’” was “to spread scriptural holiness over the land.” This paper will trace a narrow slice of the larger developing story of how John Wesley arrived at his distinction between justifying faith and full sanctifying grace. It will also serve as a case study to show that the call to justifcation by faith and a subsequent experience of sanctifcation by faith became the theme of his evangelistic preaching. This paper will conclude with some observations about the importance of Wesley’s holiness message for the founding of Asbury Theological Seminary and the E. Stanley Jones School of World Mission and Evangelism. Keywords: John Wesley, Methodism, sanctifying grace, holiness, John Fletcher Laurence W.

  • What the Bible Says About – Hohohoww Sundaykeepingsundaykeeping Beganbegan
    Family Bible Studies - 15 page 1 What the Bible says about – HoHoHoww SundaykeepingSundaykeeping BeganBegan SCRIPTURE READING: MATTHEW 5:17-48 Sunday is the first day of the week. Saturday is the seventh day of the week. The question in this lesson is Who changed the Sabbath from Saturday to Sunday? This is important because the observance of the seventh-day Sabbath is commanded by God in the fourth command- ment of the Decalogue (Exodus 20:8-11). Did God give His sanction for the change from the seventh to the first day of the week? 1 - IF THE CHANGE IS VALID, WHO AUTHORIZED IT? Authority for the change should be found in the Bible. Since we are Bible Christians, this goes without saying that it is more authoritative with us than a dictionary is for spelling and definitions. Dictionaries change, but “the Word of our God shall stand for ever” (Isaiah 40:8). Shall we build on the early Church Fathers? These are such men as Clement, Polycarp, Justin Martyr, Irenaeus, and Tertullian. Some of them lived in the second century and some later. Some theologians try to prove doctrine by quoting these early Church Fathers. Dr. Adam Clarke says in his commentary: “But of these [the Fathers] we may safely state, that there is not a truth in the most orthodox creed that cannot be proved by their authority, nor a heresy that has disgraced the Romish Church, that may not chal- lenge them as its authors. In points of doctrine their authority is, with me, nothing. The Word of God alone contains my creed” (Comment on Proverbs 8).

The primary research question is defined as: “To what extent do the dialogues under analysis relate to Arminian soteriology?” By seeking an answer to this question, new knowledge is sought on the current soteriological position of the Methodist-Lutheran dialogues, the contemporary Methodist theology and the commonalities between the Lutheran and Arminian understanding of soteriology. This way the soteriological picture of the Methodist-Lutheran discussions is clarified. The dialogues under analysis were selected on the basis of versatility. Firstly, the sole world organisation level dialogue was chosen: The Church – Community of Grace. Additionally, the document World Methodist Council and the Joint Declaration on the Doctrine of Justification is analysed as a supporting document. Secondly, a document concerning the discussions between two main-line churches in the United States of America was selected: Confessing Our Faith Together.

The Digital Library edition is the labor of love of Sulu Kelley of Concord, NC, USA. “Mr. Sulu” converted the original text from the six volume edition (originally published in 8 volumes) authored by Adam Clarke between 1810 and 1826. We thank Mr. Kelley for giving us permission to include this the first electronic edition of a most helpful and inspiring work. The reader is advised to note the following characteristics of this version: 1. There are no Hebrew vowel pointings nor are there any Greek accents. These were not a part of the published editions of Clarke’s Commentary. 2. Most capitalizations and many breathing marks were omitted from the Greek text. 3. Adam Clarke had an exceptional knowledge of Biblical languages and the languages of the earliest (known) Biblical texts.

In the temple he found people selling cattle, sheep, and doves, and the money-changers seated at their tables. Making a whip of cords, he drove all of them out of the temple, both the sheep and the cattle. He also poured out the coins of the money-changers and overturned their tables. He told those who were selling the doves, ‘Take these things out of here! Stop making my Father’s house a market-place!’His disciples remembered that it was written, ‘Zeal for your house will consume me.’ The Jews then said to him, ‘What sign can you show us for doing this?’ Jesus answered them, ‘Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.’ The Jews then said, ‘This temple has been under construction for forty-six years, and will you raise it up in three days?’ But he was speaking of the temple of his body. After he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this; and they believed the scripture and the word that Jesus had spoken.”—John 2:13-22 Today I remembered an old family Easter ritual I hadn’t thought of in decades! When we were little, my siblings and I used to color Easter eggs during Holy Week using Paas egg dyes and wax crayons.
