  • PENTECOSTAL BEGINNINGS in RAJASTHAN, INDIA: Part One
    [AJPS 12:2 (2009), pp. 231-256] PENTECOSTAL BEGINNINGS IN RAJASTHAN, INDIA: Part One Wessly Lukose Pentecostal1 Christianity is growing rapidly in India as in many parts of the world. Stanley Burgess observes that Indian Pentecostalism is the fifth largest sector of Global Charismatic Christianity.2 Pentecostals are present in almost every part of India, including north- west region, where the Christian population is comparatively low. In Rajasthan, the largest state in India, the Christian message has had little impact. According to the 2001 government census of India, Rajasthan has a population of 56.51 million, but less than one percent is Christian. However, Pentecostalism is the fastest growing Christian movement in Rajasthan. 1 In the present study the terms „Pentecostal‟ and „Charismatic‟ are used interchangeably with the same meaning unless otherwise stated. The present study adopts a more inclusive definition of Pentecostalism, following Walter Hollenweger, Allan Anderson and Amos Yong. Such a definition embraces Classical Pentecostals, Charismatics and Neo-Pentecostals, who share a common emphasis on the experience of the Holy Spirit. See Walter J. Hollenweger, Pentecostalism: Origins and Developments Worldwide (Peabody: Hendrickson, 1997), 1; Allan Anderson, An Introduction to Pentecostalism: Global Charismatic Christianity (Cambridge: CUP, 2004), 9-15. He calls them „spiritual gifts‟ movements (p.14); Amos Yong, The Spirit Poured Out on All Flesh: Pentecostalism and the Possibility of Global Theology (Grand Rapids, MI: Baker Academic, 2005), 18-19. He aligns himself with The New International Dictionary of Pentecostal and Charismatic Movements (Grand Rapids, MI: Zondervan, 2002), xviii-xxi. In Discerning the Spirit (s): A Pentecostal-Charismatic Contribution to Christian Theology of Religions (Sheffield: SAP, 2000), 21, though he initially adopts a more exclusive definition, later he calls for a more inclusive approach (see pp.

  • Christianity in India: a Focus on Inculturation
    Research Papers of the Anthropological Institute Vol.1 (2013) Christianity in India: A Focus on Inculturation Antonysamy Sagayaraj Keywords Materiality, material culture, things, inculturation, Christian Ashrams Introduction This paper focuses on the concept of materiality or material culture such as vernacular architecture, religious artifacts and religious performances and displays that are used in religious rituals, their symbolic meaning and how materiality becomes instrumental in the process of inculturation of Christianity in India. These religious cultural “things” are not just ornaments that are kept for the sake of keeping tradition; rather, they are seen on the one hand, as effective medium that are used to express one’s religious belief, and on the other hand, they serve as a concrete manifestation of one’s culture in its effort to accommodate a foreign religion. The relationship of things to value systems, cosmologies, beliefs and emotions, more broadly to personal and social identities … aims to illustrate the dialectic of subjectivity and objectivity in the constitution of the meanings and significances of things. It then moves on to consider the manner in which things and their meanings become transformed in performative context and issues of time (Tilley 2006: 4-5). These cultural things, then, become very effective instruments for inculturation as they become the concrete embodiment of the Christian belief expressed in the ‘things’ that are indigenous to Indian religion and religious practice, most especially Hinduism. Of course, one could say that the concept of religious materiality has developed systematically within the religions of Buddhism and Hinduism, while theology has always been centered upon the critique of materiality.

    The Greatest Faith Ever Preached Sunday December 30, 2012 We’ve had a great year as a church in 2012. God has been very gracious to us. We’ve seen wonderful growth in reaching out to people • GodTV • We were part of VisionIndia training up 8,600 young people from about 15 states across North India. In addition, 12,000 sets of our Hindi publications (12 titles) i.e. 1,44,000 copies of our publications distributed at VisionIndia itself! • Short Term Bible college at Champa, where we graduated 45 students • Missions Trips by our young people to Chattarpur • Two more new locations in Bangalore East and West • APC-Mangalore moved into Mangalore city and encouraging response from students there • APC moved into a new office • …and so much more… As we look ahead to 2013, we as a church must be ready to reach out both in our city and across our nation. Jesus gave one of the indicators of the end of this age. He said “And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.” (Matthew 24:14) This morning we are going to talk about “The Greatest Faith Ever Preached” Mark 16:14-20 There were 11 unbelieving disciples. Jesus rebuked them for their unbelief and hardness of heart – even after being with Jesus for 3 years, seeing and hearing all that He did and taught – they still doubted His resurrection. To these men, He gave the great commission – to take the Gospel to the ends of the world! From a group of 11 unbelieving disciples, the Gospel of Jesus Christ, has spread to the nations.
