Major missiological motifs in North American classical pentecostal missionsNewberry, Warren Bruce 05 1900 (has links)
Text in English / This thesis is a study of several major motifs found in classical
Pentecostal missiology in the North American scene. It is both a missiologically interpreted study based on the historical antecedents of Pentecostal mission theology and a Pentecostal interpretation of five major motifs germane to Evangelical and Pentecostal missiology in this present time.
The intent and purpose of this study is to begin in chapter two with the
Antecedents and Matrix of Pentecostalism per se and interpret them through missiological eyes. Topics such as the Holiness-Wesleyan roots of Pentecostalism which includes looking at such personages as John Wesley, Charles Finney, et al are studied. As well, the Reformed, non-Wesleyan roots of Pentecostalism are highlighted which includes Premillennialism, Dwight Moody, Reuben Torrey, A J Gordon, and A B Simpson, and Divine Healing. Finally, one arrives at the matrix of
modern day Pentecostalism. The major emphasis is placed upon Charles Parham, William Seymour, the Azusa Street Mission, and on African American Pentecostals.
The remaining chapters are an articulation, evaluation, and interpretation of five major Pentecostal mission theologies (practices) that emerged from the antecedents and appear to be in common with the majority of classical Pentecostal denominations.
Chapter three deals with The Lostness of the Human Race. Topics included are lnterreligious dialogue, 'Life boat salvation', and the exclusiveness of Christ.
Chapter four handles the concepts of Church Planting and Evangelism from perspectives of the Ecumencials, Evangelicals, and Pentecostals. In chapter five, the understanding of Indigenous Church Principles is studied from its origin to present- day application. Notable persons are Melvin Hodges and Morris Williams. Most relevant to present-day missiology is chapter six which deals with Social Responsibility and how Pentecostal missiology has responded to this need. Finally,
Pneumatology as characterized by Pentecostal mission theology is studied.
Emphasis is placed on Xenolalia, the Great Commission, Traditional Pentecostal Pneumatology, Pentecostal hermeneutics, and the Holy Spirit in missions. / Christian Spirituality, Church History & Missiology / D. Th. (Missiology)

Previous issue date: 2011-08-23 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / This dissertation intends to study the Christian Harp, one of the main national protestant
hymnals, looking to identify it as instrument of expansion in Brazil s Pentecostalism
mission in the period between 1910 and 1970, while appreciating the history and the
creation of this liturgical book, intending to comprehend its usage as motivational element
in the missionary practice of the Brazilian Pentecostal churches. It also consists of knowing
the characteristics of construction of this compendium, passing through the presentation of
its hymnists profiles and through the assiduous study of its musical structure and literary
composition, while being aware of some important constitutive characteristics that are used,
such as the theological concepts. Looking for a missiology concept that shows to be more
correlated with the theological content of this hymnal and the referral of various examples
of incitement to the evangelist practice found within its songs, which leads to the
comprehension of the relevancy of the Christian Harp in the liturgical life of confessional
pentecostal churches in Brazil, and its bold presence as an efficient developer of missionary
practice of these faith communities. / Esta dissertação pretende estudar a Harpa Cristã, um dos principais hinários protestantes
nacionais, buscando identificá-la como instrumento de expansão da missão no
pentecostalismo do Brasil, no período comprendido entre os anos 1910 e 1970, apreciando a
história e a formação deste livro litúrgico na pretensão de compreender sua utilização como
elemento motivador para a prática missionária das igrejas pentecostais brasileiras. Consiste
também em conhecer as características da construção deste compêndio, passando pela
apresentação do perfil de seus hinistas e pelo estudo aplicado da sua estrutura musical e sua
composição literária, conhecendo, ainda, algumas de suas importantes características
constitutivas, como os conceitos teológicos de que faz uso em seu discurso. A procura por
uma conceituação missiológica que se mostre mais identificada ao conteúdo teológico deste
hinário e a indicação de vários exemplos de incentivo à prática evangelística encontrados
em suas canções conduzem à compreensão da relevante importância da Harpa Cristã na vida
litúrgica das igrejas de confissão pentecostal no Brasil e da sua marcante presença como
eficiente agente fomentador do exercício missionário dessas comunidades de fé.

Pathways to healing : an empirical-theology study of the healing praxis of 'the group' Assemblies of God in KwaZulu-Natal, South AfricaThomas, Andrew James 06 1900 (has links)
The study commenced by identifying a theological problem relating to the lack of understanding regarding grass-roots African Pentecostal healing praxis. The empirical-theological approach of Van der Ven was utilised, therefore, to study the healing praxis of an African Pentecostal body, called: The Group‘ Assemblies of God, in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Van der Ven‘s original framework was developed by drawing on the hermeneutic and methodological work of Cartledge.
A case study was undertaken on a Group‘ Assembly in rural KwaZulu-Natal. The use of social scientific techniques produced a wide range of results that point to the church‘s ministry of healing as a process, rooted in the Trinity, that can occur through varied channels. These pathways ended in a broad understanding of healing.
A dialogue between the qualitative results and the healing literature was used to develop a more precise theological question. Case study categories were conceptualised and then operationalised as a questionnaire. A survey was performed on all Assemblies affiliated to The Group‘ Assemblies of God in KwaZulu-Natal. A significant number of people participated in the survey which produced a wide range of data. It is found that worldview and charismatic experience form an important hermeneutic axis that influences attitudes towards the healing ministry. Conservative biblical belief, ethnicity, education and gender influence attitudes towards healing. A distinct divide exists between positive attitudes towards physical, spiritual, inner healing and deliverance and more negative attitudes towards social and environmental healing. The reflection on these results focuses on the perceived influence of American dispensational fundamentalism. The eschatology formed from these beliefs has a narrowing effect on holistic healing ministry. Moltmann‘s transformational eschatology is suggested, therefore, as a suitable alternative. The methodological evaluation finds that several problems exist with regard to research in a rural African location. The cycle concludes by offering a range of suggestions for further study. / Practical Theology / D. Th. (Practical Theology)
