"Jste-li Kristovi, jste potomstvo Abrahamovo" Etnografie českého mesiánsko-židovského společenství / "And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed" An Etnography of a Czech Messianic Jewish CommunitySoukupová, Monika January 2018 (has links)
This thesis deals with some aspects of the religiosity of the members of the Czech community, who claim to be a part of a Messianic Judaism movement. The text is based on the field research I did within the congregation. In the introduction, I attempt to present definitions of this type of religiosity, describe the historical development of the movement, make connection to evangelical religiosity, outline its basic pillars, clarify the role of non-Jewish believers in this movement, and ultimately outline possible forms of worship. Next, I describe my journey into the field, the development of my relationships with the informers and then I evaluate my insider-outsider position in the community. In the practical part of the thesis, I try to reveal the path of individual church members to this type of religiosity, relying on Kaell's concept of "born-again seeking". Based on testimonies from individual believers, I try to uncover why the congregation does not accept more elements of Pentecostal religiosity, as can be seen in many Messianic communities, especially in the United States and England. On the contrary, the church's aims seem to be a counterweight to emotional Pentecostal religiosity. On the phenomena of the celebration of Jewish holidays, the observance of the Sabbath, the relations to the...

Pentecostal contributions to modern Christological thought: a synthesis with ecumenical viewsHouse, Sean David 30 November 2006 (has links)
Pentecostalism, which developed its essential character during the classical period of 1901-1916, has many significant contributions to make to modern theology. Often viewed as a type of fundamentalism, it is actually a theological tradition in its
own right that deserves consideration along with the other two major streams of
protestantism, conservative evangelicalism and more liberal ecumenical-mainline thought. Although it emphasizes the experience of the Holy Spirit, pentecostalism is highly Christocentric as is evidenced by its foundational symbol of faith, the fourfold gospel of Jesus as savior, healer, baptizer, and coming king. This work examines how
the pentecostal fourfold gospel, as a functional, from below Spirit Christology, anticipates and intersects with trends in twentieth century ecumenical theological thought. The result of the study is the articulation of a fuller, more holistic understanding of the work of Christ in salvation in the world today. / Systematic Theology & Theological Ethics / M. Th.

Le mouvement pentecôtiste - une communauté alternative au sud du Burundi 1935-1960Nyberg Oskarsson, Gunilla January 2004 (has links)
This thesis is a contribution to a hitherto neglected area of research: The African Pentecostal Churches, that do not belong to those called African Indigenous Churches (AICs). It is a case study from the perspective of southern Burundi, the periphery of the ancient kingdom. The Pentecostal Movement in Burundi was born in the encounter between Swedish Pentecostal missionaries and the population in the southern part of the country. This study highlights what happened in that encounter. The thesis consists of six parts. The first is a survey of the Pentecostal Movement in Sweden. The diachronic structure of parts two to five focuses on the development within the Burundian Pentecostal Churches and their relationship to the Burundian society 1935-1960. In the sixth part the diachronic approach is augmented by structural analyses, showing how aspects in the Pentecostal Movement developed. The Pentecostal missionaries accepted in part the traditional world view, the belief in a spiritual world and non-rational explanations to misfortunes in life. They encouraged the Burundians to do spiritual experiences, and especially the baptism in the Holy Ghost. The Burundian evangelists and church elders played a decisive role. It was their task to reformulate the Pentecostal message in Kirundi, which was not spoken by the missionaries. They moulded the message into a Burundian Pentecostal message, at the same time respecting the teaching of the early missionaries. They succeeded in doing that so well that the Pentecostal Movement became a popular movement, in certain places the dominating Christian denomination, in spite of the parallel work done by the Catholic Church, encouraged and supported by the Belgian state. This thesis builds on material taken mainly from unpublished sources from archives in Burundi, Sweden, Rome, Great Britain and Denmark. These are supplemented by interviews, most of them made by the author.

Såsom en slöja : Den kristna slöjan i en svensk kontext / As a veil : The Christian veil in a Swedish contextHallgren Sjöberg, Elisabeth January 2014 (has links)
This study takes its point of departure in the tradition of Christian women covering their hair for religious and cultural reasons, hereafter called veiling. The aim has been to investigate what ideas were projected onto the veil in Sweden during the 19th and 20th centuries, as well as when and how the tradition of veiling disappeared among most Christian Swedes. My definition of what constitutes a veil has little to do with the form of the head covering. If an item is used in the mean of covering women’s hair for religious or cultural, rather than practical reasons, then it is considered to be a veil.In his first letter to the assembly of Corinth (1 Cor. 11), the Apostle Paul advocates a veil as a sign of women’s subordination. He also states that women’s hair is a sign of honour and to have it cut would be a disgrace. In 19th century Sweden, it was tradition among the rural populations for women to have long hair, covered indoors as well as outdoors. The sources show that people were aware of the words in 1 Cor. 11 about female subordination and the veil as a sign thereof. Women’s hair became the means for an individual’s inner body to show its virtues via the outer, physical body.In the mid-1920s it became popular for young women to cut their hair short. By accentuating how the world had changed, short hair became a symbol of modernity. Within a decade short hair for young women became the norm all over the country. There were no significant protests of this from the Swedish Church, though free-churches with a more fundamentalist understanding of the Bible remained disapproving. As the century progressed women gradually appeared bare-headed in church. Paul’s words about subordination became considered as an Oriental influence rather than a divine command. By projecting the inequalities of the sexes as an ancient Oriental idea, the western society’s identity as modern and democratic could be asserted. Essentially, everyone agreed that Swedish Christian women were not veiled, nor ever had been, nor should be. Hence the tradition of veiling disappeared in the Swedish Church without much notice.In the more fundamentalist Swedish Pentecostal movement the hair itself began to carry the religious symbolism otherwise given to the veil. In this manner, the hair had indeed become like a veil, as Paul had written. Renouncing long hair was in the end a renunciation of Paul’s words and the hierarchical system assigned by God. Nevertheless, short hair for women eventually became accepted within the Swedish Pentecostal movement as well.

A retórica do sobrenatural na TV: um estudo da persuasão no neopentecostalismoLuiz Ernesto Mellet 16 February 2008 (has links)
Nos últimos tempos, o movimento neopentecostal vem ganhando terreno no campo religioso brasileiro. O seu avanço se deve, entre outros motivos, pelo afrouxamento
de condutas ascetas e o rigor sectário que, até então, estiveram presentes nas comunidades que seguem o cristianismo no país. A Igreja Mundial do Poder de Deus surgiu no final do século passado e vem abarcando para suas hostes um número crescente de fiéis. O uso sistemático da televisão na propagação da sua mensagem, ancorada na cura e resolução dos problemas deste mundo, responde, em parte, pelo sucesso dessa agremiação. O que o seu aparecimento acrescenta ao neopentecostalismo nacional, a influência da persuasão e a eficácia da mídia eletrônica na adesão dos fiéis são reflexões norteantes desta dissertação. / In the past few years, the neopentecostal movement has gain space on the brasilian religious field. The progress is based, among any others reasons, in the soft way to
accept certain conducts and the sectary strictness that prevail in the others religious communities that follows the christianism in the country. The Igreja Mundial do Poder de Deus was created in the end of the last century and since then has been embracing in its temples a crescent number of followers. The systemic use of television in the propagation of its creed encored in the cure and solving problems of the world, responds, in part, for the success of this agremiation. What its appearance adds to the national neopentecostalismo,the influence of persuasion and efficiency of electronic media in the adhesion of followers are the reflexes that guided this dissertation.

Gemeindeaufbau russlanddeutscher Pfingstgemeinden in der UdSSR und der BRD / German-Russian Pentecostal church growth in the USSR and the FRGFrank, Leonnard 10 1900 (has links)
Summary in German and English / Die vorliegende Arbeit widmet sich dem Gemeindeaufbau und der Mission von Pfingstgemeinden unter Russlanddeutschen in der UdSSR und der BRD. Leitend ist dabei die Frage, welche missiologische Praktiken und Prinzipien für den Wachstum dieser Gemeinden verantwortlich waren.
Die historische Untersuchung beginnt mit der Entstehungsgeschichte der Pfingstbewegung unter den Russlanddeutschen in der UdSSR und BRD. Dabei werden vor allem die Gemeindeaufbaumethoden der Pfingstgemeinden, ihre geographischen Ausdehnung und ihre zahlenmäßige Ausweitung betrachtet. Der historische Teil der Studie bildet im weiteren Forschungsverlauf die Grundlage zur Entwicklung einer qualitative Studie der russlanddeutschen Pfingstgemeinden in der BRD. Dazu wurden mittels qualitativer Interviews Leiter aus 14 Gemeinden zu ihrer Glaubenspraxis, dem Gemeindeaufbau und ihrer Mission befragt. Auf Basis der Grounded Theory wurden die gewonnenen Daten ausgewertet, nach verschiedenen Wachstumsfaktoren geordnet und vor dem Hintergrund missionstheologischer Aspekte interpretiert. Schließlich werden die Ergebnisse aus der historischen und empirischen Untersuchung mit den gegenwärtigen missiologischen Konzepten verglichen und eine handlungsorientierte Perspektive eröffnet.
Die vorliegende Studie soll als Diskussionsbeitrag zum Gemeindeaufbau und der Mission der russlanddeutschen Pfingstgemeinden in der Missiologie dienen / The present paper deals with the development and mission of the Pentecostal community of German- Russians in USSR and FRG (Federal Republic of Germany).
The main purpose is which missiological practices and principles brought about the development of these communities. The historical investigation starts with the history of the origins of the Pentecostal movement among the German- Russian people in the USSR and FRG. The attention is paid to the methods of the establishment and development of the community, its geographical extension and also the numerical growth.
Furthermore the historical research is the basis for the development of the qualitative study about the Pentecostal- communities of the German- Russians in FRG. Therefore leaders of 14 Pentecostal Churches were interviewed and asked about their religious practices, community development and mission. Based on the Grounded theory the collected data were classified in different growth factors and they were interpreted against the background of mission- theological aspects.
Finally the results of the historical and empirical research are compared with current missiological concepts so that they open an action-orientated perspective.
This study provides a basis for a debate for the community development and missionary of German- Russian Pentecostal Communities.

DIE WALISISCHE ERWECKUNG UND IHRE AUSWIRKUNG AUF DIE DEUTSCHSPRACHIGE SCHWEIZ (1904/05) / The Welsh revival and its impact on German-speaking Switzerland (1904/05)Lutz, Oliver 11 1900 (has links)
Summaries in German and English. / Die vorliegende MTh-Dissertation ist eine missionsgeschichtliche Untersuchung. Sie beschäftigt
sich mit der Entstehung der Erweckung in Wales (1904/05), indem sie diese zunächst in
den Kontext weltweiter Erweckungen in jenem Jahrzehnt setzt, die gesellschaftlichen und
kirchlichen Entwicklungen in Wales vor der Erweckung darstellt und anhand von Primär- und
Sekundärliteratur die Entstehung der Erweckung untersucht. Es werden biografische Meilensteine
im Leben von Evan Roberts, der herausragenden Persönlichkeit jener Erweckung, bis
zum Höhepunkt seines Wirkens nach seiner ersten Missionsreise kritisch beleuchtet. Menschen
aus der Schweiz sind nach Wales gereist, um die Erweckung zu erkunden. Parallel zu den Ereignissen
sind zahlreiche Artikel und Schriften entstanden, um eine Erweckung in der Schweiz
anzufachen. Die Arbeit untersucht die Auswirkungen der Erweckung von Wales auf die
deutschsprachige Schweiz und deren Rezeption im historischen Kontext. Aus den Quelltexten
wird in missiologischer Perspektive eine wegweisende Richtung für heute eröffnet. / Christian Spirituality, Church History and Missiology / M. Th. (Missiology)

Charismen Entdecken: Eine praktisch-theologische Untersuchung in der Evangelischen Landeskirche in Baden / Discovering Chrismata : a practical theological inquiry in the United Lutheran Church of BadenBaumert, Manfred Otto Willi 03 1900 (has links)
Summary and key words in German and English / Every church faces the challenge of procuring capable workers for the multifaceted task of ministry. For
several decades now official denominational statements and the discipline of Practical Theology have
been calling for a new understanding of giftedness in ecclesial service. As yet little fundamental research
has been done in this area. This dissertation seeks to make a contribution both empirically and
theologically. It marks the first time in the German–speaking world of Practical Theology that the issue
of how one discovers charisms is addressed academically. The specific field of research is located in the
Protestant Regional Church of Baden in southwest Germany. Nevertheless the findings can be applied
more broadly since the research is based on thorough exegetical and systematic–theological analysis and
has been verified empirically.
There has been a quest for the charisms of the Spirit since the beginning of the twentieth century and
even more so now in the face of the societal challenges of postmodernity. In the discussion of the
different theological positionens arise as result that charisms have to be seen with an triune approach. In
addtion, besindes the fact that charisms have a habitual meaning, they first of all have a relational
dimension. The empirical research involved online–interviewings of pastors, plus interviews of church
members. One of the major findings was that the views of pastors on how church members receive gifts
is determined by their theological understanding of the charisms. Pastors discover gifts, not according to
Pauline criteria, but largely according to emotional aspects, as proved by this research. It became
apparent that protestant pastors are of the opinion that New Testament charisms are not first received at
baptism, but already at birth. Another interesting finding is that members of both protestant main stream
churches and pentacostal-charismatic churches hold the same believes about how to receive charisms.
The only difference is their repertoire of gifts. This dissertation focuses on developing guidelines for the
discovery of charisms within the congregation as the local body of the Church. / Fähige Mitarbeiter für eine vielgestaltige Gemeindearbeit zu finden, ist in jeder Kirche eine bleibende
Aufgabe und Herausforderung. Seit einigen Jahrzehnten wird in kirchlichen Verlautbarungen und in der Praktischen Theologie verstärkt das Konzept einer gabenorientierten Mitarbeit betont. Dieses Feld ist
noch wenig grundsätzlich erforscht. Die vorliegende Arbeit greift empirisch und theologisch in die aktuelle Diskussion ein. Innerhalb der Praktischen Theologie im deutschsprachigen Raum liegt mit ihr zum ersten Mal eine wissenschaftliche Untersuchung zur Frage vor, wie Charismen im Forschungsfeld
der Evangelischen Landeskirche in Baden entdeckt werden. Die Ergebnisse reichen aber weit über
diesen Rahmen hinaus und können grundsätzlich gelten, weil sie auf dem Hintergrund exegetischer und
systematisch-theologischer Grundlagenarbeit in einer sorgfältigen empirischen Methodik erhoben, reflektiert und ausgewertet wurden.
Die Ausführungen zeigen, dass die Suche nach Charismen seit Beginn des 20. Jh. angesichts der
gesellschaftlichen Umbrüche im Kontext der Postmoderne zu einem großen Thema geworden ist. Aus
den theologischen Positionen erwuchs die wesentliche Einsicht, dass Charismen trinitarisch einzuordnen sind und neben dem habituellen Charismenverständnis vor allem die relationale Dimension vorliegt. Die
empirische Forschungsarbeit umfasst eine Online-Befragung von Pfarrern, ergänzend dazu wurden
Gemeindeglieder interviewt. Als eines der Hauptergebnisse stellte sich heraus, dass die Meinung der
Pfarrer, wie Gemeindeglieder Gaben empfangen, durch ihr theologisches Gabenverständnis bestimmt
wird. Wie Pfarrer Gaben entdecken, richtet sich weithin nicht nach den paulinischen Kriterien, sondern
nach emotionalen Gesichtspunkten, wie in der vorliegenden Arbeit nachgewiesen werden konnte. Wie
sich herausstellte, sind Pfarrer der Überzeugung, dass neutestamentliche Gaben nicht erst bei der Taufe empfangen werden, sondern mit der biologischen Geburt. Ein weiterer interessanter Aspekt belegt, dass
Gemeindeglieder der evangelischen Landeskirche im Vergleich zu charismatisch-pentekostalen
Gemeindegliedern Gaben nach ihren subjektiven Glaubensüberzeugungen in derselben Weise empfangen, lediglich das Gabenrepertoire unterscheidet sich. Die vorliegende Arbeit zielt darauf ab,
Leitlinien zum Entdecken von Charismen im Kontext der lokalen Gemeinde zu entwickeln. / Practical Theology / Thesis (D. Th. (Practical Theology))
