Book Synopsis Oneness Pentecostals and the Trinity by : Gregory A. Boyd
Download or read book Oneness Pentecostals and the Trinity written by Gregory A. Boyd and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 1992-06-01 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What's special about Oneness Pentecostals? In this penetrating analysis of Oneness theology and practice, Gregory Boyd reveals the experience of four years of personal involvement in a Oneness church. Although Oneness Pentecostals' belief in Christ's deity establishes some common ground with other Christians, their aggressive denial of the Trinity has nonetheless fostered their indisputably sub-Christian ideas about God's character, about salvation, and about Christian living.

Book Synopsis Questions Oneness Pentecostals Don't Ask by : Glen Davidson M a
Download or read book Questions Oneness Pentecostals Don't Ask written by Glen Davidson M a and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2021-08-03 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The God of the ages that hated sin took on the form of man to take mankind's place on the cross. He had made the heavens, the earth, the sea, and the dry land. There was no other god with him. This God was actually in Jesus Christ, reconciling the world unto himself. He became the second Adam. The substitution Christ made for us must be understood by faith, not just by the intellect.The doctrine of the Trinity developed because of attempts to explain by the intellect something that is revealed only by the Spirit. But what do we do with the obvious duality found in the New Testament letters?This book covers both issues: The oneness of God, and the questions Oneness Pentecostals don't ask-at least not usually.
Book Synopsis Against Oneness Pentecostalism by : Michael Burgos
Download or read book Against Oneness Pentecostalism written by Michael Burgos and published by . This book was released on 2016-07-20 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: See what Christian leaders are saying about Against Oneness Pentecostalism: "Michael Burgos has produced a brilliant blend of systematic theology and biblical exegesis with a detailed and thorough discussion of the main passages at the center of the dispute between Oneness Pentecostalism and traditional trinitarianism. He argues throughout for certain central elements of trinitarianism, in particular, the eternality of the Son of God and the eternal co-existence of the Father and Son with a focus on the Son's activity in creation. He ably interacts with technical issues including the original languages, Greek grammar, and textual criticism and cogently demonstrates that Oneness Pentecostalism is deeply flawed in its interpretation of Scripture and its understanding of God. Highly recommended for those interested in Oneness Pentecostalism and the biblical teaching regarding Theology Proper and Christology." Alexander E. Stewart Ph.D., Academic Dean and Associate Professor of New Testament Language and Literature at Tyndale Theological Seminary "Oneness theology is nothing more than the crass unitarianism of Judaism and Islam. In this work, Michael Burgos has outlined in a systematic fashion the chief theological assertions of Oneness theology and then provides a point-by-point exegetical refutation. Burgos clearly demonstrates throughout this work that the Scriptural view of a Triune God and preexistent unipersonal Son sharply opposes the Oneness idea of the Son being a mere mode or role of a unitarian deity named, 'Jesus.' Burgos consistently stays fastened to the exegesis of the biblical text both in his positive affirmation of the Trinity and in his thorough dismantlement of Oneness theology. Thus, Burgos has clearly laid out the biblical case against Oneness unitarianism. Edward L. Dalcour, M.Apol., Ph.D. President, Department of Christian Defense Faculty of Theology, North-West University "Are you looking for a careful, serious and fair treatment of Oneness Pentecostalism from an orthodox Christian perspective? Search no further, this is the book you're looking for." Vocab Malone, host of Urban Theologian Radio "Michael Burgos has presented a stalwart defense of the Holy Trinity, and an academic and scholarly explanation of Oneness Pentecostalism. In class polemic style, Burgos gives the reader a defense of truth, as well as a critique of false doctrine." J. D. Hall, host of the Polemics Report and Pastor of Fellowship Baptist Church "In the near 25 years since the publication of Gregory Boyd's Oneness Pentecostals and the Trinity there has been a dearth of critical interaction with the arguments and exegetical underpinnings of Oneness Pentecostal theology. Michael Burgos has taken up this task in Against Oneness Pentecostalism. Here Burgos interacts with the top Oneness Pentecostal and expositors of our day and finds their arguments wanting. This volume has practical implications beyond the debate that exists between trinitarians and Oneness Pentecostals because if popular piety is any indication, then many professing trinitarian Christians are Oneness in practice and Burgos' work will help to show how such thinking is wrong as well as offering an exegetical alternative that is faithful to what God has revealed about himself in Scripture."

Book Synopsis Early Interracial Oneness Pentecostalism by : Talmadge L. French
Download or read book Early Interracial Oneness Pentecostalism written by Talmadge L. French and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2014-07-02 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early Interracial Oneness Pentecostalism is a look at what is perhaps the least-known chapter in the history of American Pentecostalism. The study of the first thirty years of Oneness Pentecostalism (1901-31) is especially relevant due to its unparalleled interracial commitment to an all-flesh, all-people, counter-cultural Pentecost. This in-depth study details the lives of its earliest primary architects, including G. T. Haywood, R. C. Lawson, J. J. Frazee, and E. W. Doak, and the emergence of Oneness Pentecostalism and its flagship organization, Pentecostal Assemblies of the World. This is a one-of-a-kind history of Pentecostalism, through the lens of the Jesus' Name movement and the interracial struggles of the period, interlinking the significance of Charles Parham, William Seymour and the Azusa Street revival, COGIC, the newly formed Assemblies of God, and dozens of the earliest Oneness organizational bodies. Exploration of the significance of the role of African American Indianapolis leader G. T. Haywood is central, as are the development of the movement's key centers in the United States and the ultimate loss of interracial unity after more than thirty years. These crucial events marked, indelibly, the U.S., the global missionary, and the autochthonous expansion of Oneness Pentecostalism worldwide.

Book Synopsis Jesus Only Churches by : E. Calvin Beisner
Download or read book Jesus Only Churches written by E. Calvin Beisner and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2016-09-06 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlike Jehovah's Witnesses, who deny the Trinity by demoting Jesus to a mere man, the "Jesus Only" churches deny the Trinity by claiming that there is only one God, and that Jesus is the Father and the Holy Spirit. "Jesus Only" churches not only require baptism for salvation, but also stipulate that it must be baptism in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ only, and not in the name of the Father, the son, and the Holy Spirit. Thus, these churches distort the gospel and the historic, orthodox understanding of Jesus. Why this series? This is an age when countless groups and movements, old and new, mark the religious landscape in our culture, leaving many people confused or uncertain in their search for spiritual truth and meaning. Because you may not have the time or opportunity to research these movements fully, these books provide essential and reliable information and insights for their spiritual journeys. The second wave of books in this series addresses a broad range of spiritual beliefs, from non-Trinitarian Christian sects to witchcraft and neo-paganism to classic non-Christian religions such as Buddhism and Hinduism. All books but the summary volume, Truth and Error, contain five sections: -A concise introduction to the group being surveyed -An overview of the group’s theology — in its own words -Tips for witnessing effectively to members of the group -A bibliography with sources for further study -A comparison chart that shows the essential differences between biblical Christianity and the group -Truth and Error, the last book in the series, consists of parallel doctrinal charts compiled from all the other volumes. Three distinctives make this series especially useful to readers: -Information is carefully distilled to bring out truly essential points, rather than requiring readers to sift their way through a sea of secondary details. -Information is presented in a clear, easy-to-follow outline form with “menu bar” running heads. This format greatly assists the reader in quickly locating topics and details of interest. -Each book meets the needs and skill levels of both nontechnical and technical readers, providing an elementary level of refutation and progressing to a more advanced level using arguments based on the biblical text. The writers of these volumes are well qualified to present clear and reliable information and help readers to discern truth from falsehood.
Download or read book "In Jesus' Name" written by David A. Reed and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2019-08-26 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “In Jesus’ Name” tells the story of the third stream of Pentecostalism, which emerged during the formative years of the Pentecostal Revival. This is the first comprehensive study of the origins, history and theology of Oneness Pentecostalism, the heterodox movement expelled from the Assemblies of God in 1916 for its rejection of the doctrine of the Trinity and insistence on water baptism in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Reed traces the movement, now estimated at 14 million world wide, to its Pietist and Evangelical roots. Its distinctive doctrine is a radical trajectory of a christocentric reaction that had already begun in early Pentecostalism. Reed’s study shows the inadequacy of the label of heresy in light of its thoroughgoing Pentecostal identity and theology of the Name of God. This title was granted the PNEUMA award for 2009.
Book Synopsis Christianity Without the Cross by : Thomas A. Fudge
Download or read book Christianity Without the Cross written by Thomas A. Fudge and published by Universal-Publishers. This book was released on 2003 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grounded in primary source research, this boldly revisionist book examines the doctrine of salvation in Oneness Pentecostalism (United Pentecostal Church) from its origins through its several developmental stages. The gradual rise of a literal interpretation of Acts 2.38 eliminated a tradition of doctrinal diversity within Oneness thought which regarded salvation as occurring at repentance prior to water and Spirit baptism. With this development a main link to the wider stream of evangelical Christianity was severed. The "water and Spirit" theology resulted in a form of Christianity which does not necessarily require the cross in any meaningful sense for salvation. This study recovers the lost theological tradition associated with important figures such as Howard A. Goss, A.D. Gurley, W.M. Greer, C.H. Tadon, Wynn T. Stairs, Earl Jacques, E.P. Wickens, John Paterson and the Pentecostal Church, Incorporated. Combining traditional historical methodology and theological research with the principles of a broadly based oral history, this study argues for a theological diversity within the history of Oneness Pentecostalism and in so doing bridges an important gap in the history and theology of the United Pentecostal Church.
Download or read book The One written by J. Gill and published by 21st Century Reformation Publishing. This book was released on 2016-04-05 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From atheism and agnosticism to Trinitarian Christianity which itself is not rooted in the simple faith of the one true God of the Bible - J. Dan Gill meets all of these candidly and head on. He asks, "Why do most Christians not even know the Shema - the amazing biblical creed about God which was given by Moses, affirmed by Jesus and is spoken in synagogues to this day?" J. Dan challenges Christians to by-pass centuries of their own religious traditions and discover anew the God of Jesus.
Book Synopsis The Oneness Pentecostal Movement in the Twentieth and Twenty-First Centuries by : JOSEPH M. STREEVAL
Download or read book The Oneness Pentecostal Movement in the Twentieth and Twenty-First Centuries written by JOSEPH M. STREEVAL and published by Lulu Publishing Services. This book was released on 2018-07-19 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its early beginnings, the Pentecostal Church has been diverse and even paradoxical, and this diversity in belief and in practice persists in the church today. The Oneness movement within the church, a movement based on the belief that God is absolutely and indivisibly one person, has for the last thirty years been reshaped by a tectonic shift in the movement's stance on church dogma and church standards. The Pentecostal Oneness Movement in the Twentieth and Twenty-First Centuries provides a comprehensive introduction to the Oneness movement and the challenges it had to overcome. These challenges include struggles within the organization, divisiveness, racism, and doctrinal differences. Author Joseph M. Streeval also explores the influence of key leaders within the early Oneness movement, the movement's current organizational culture, and the future and direction of the Oneness movement today. God has never changed; neither have His methods changed.
Book Synopsis Pentecostalism: A Guide for the Perplexed by : Wolfgang Vondey
Download or read book Pentecostalism: A Guide for the Perplexed written by Wolfgang Vondey and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2012-12-18 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pentecostalism is the fastest growing religious movement of our time. The unexpected birth of the modern-day Pentecostal movement at the doorsteps of the twentieth century is as perplexing as its continuing existence and unprecedented expansion worldwide. Once marginalized from public discourse, Pentecostals have entered into mainstream culture, religion, politics, academia, and social action. However, the unprecedented growth of Pentecostalism in all its diversity has led to characterizations ripe with platitudes, stereotypes, and misrepresentations. This Guide for the Perplexed sheds light on the most persistent contrasts characterizing the Pentecostal movement: the tension between local manifestations and global Pentecostalism, the inconsistency between spiritual discernment and charismatic excess, the gap between rampant denominationalism and the pursuit of Christian unity, the disparity between poverty among many Pentecostals and the popularity of the prosperity gospel, the division between Oneness Pentecostals and their trinitarian counterparts, and the worldview of Pentecostals beyond the confines of a religious movement. Those tensions form the essence of global Pentecostalism and represent the emergence of a global Christian world.

Book Synopsis Fundamentals of Pentecostal Oneness by : Harry L Herman
Download or read book Fundamentals of Pentecostal Oneness written by Harry L Herman and published by . This book was released on 2017-11-27 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fundamentals of Pentecostal Oneness is Dr. Harry Herman's bold, honest, and heartwarming message about the unipersonality of God and the audacious discovery about the hidden identify of this one true God unpacked through these fundamentals. According to Dr. Herman, all Christians must come to the realization of the essence of the relationship between God and His son, Jesus. The author laid a strong foundation concerning the revelation of God in Jesus Christ. The strength of a building lies in its foundation. The main purpose of the foundation is to hold the structure above it and keep it upright. Well-built foundations keep the occupants of the building safe during calamities such as earthquake, floods, strong winds, and etc. If these fundamentals be in, you will be neither barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ and will withstand the wiles of Satan. Fundamentals of Pentecostal Oneness draws provocative and stimulating conclusions about the meaning and significance of this one true God and His name.
Book Synopsis Oneness Pentecostal Churches by : Bruce Tucker
Download or read book Oneness Pentecostal Churches written by Bruce Tucker and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2002-05-13 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are approximately 111 separate sects and denominations that are classified as Oneness Pentecostal Churches. These congregations are found in nearly every city and town in the United States, as well as around the world. They get their distinctive name from the fact that they do not believe in the orthodox doctrine of the Trinity. They believe that all who do believe in the Trinity are spiritually lost because they have adopted a pagan doctrine. They differ from other Pentecostals and the rest of the historical church on several important issues, earning them the title of a Pseudo-Christian Cult by established cult watching organizations and cult experts. The book, Oneness Pentecostal Churches, examines the claims, doctrines and practices of these fellowships. It addresses the issues in a manner comprehensive enough to satisfy the professional minister, yet clear enough to meet the needs of laypeople who are seeking answers about this significant movement. The questions discussed in the book include: 1.) Who are Oneness Pentecostals? 2.)Why are Oneness Pentecostals called "the people of the name"? 3.)Is the doctrine of the Trinity really pagan? 4.)Is there a three step pathway to salvation? 5.)Does water baptism save? 6.)Is speaking in tongues required for salvation? For those interested in understanding the Oneness Pentecostal movement, this book is required reading.
Book Synopsis Oneness Pentecostalism by : Lloyd D. Barba
Download or read book Oneness Pentecostalism written by Lloyd D. Barba and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2023-03-13 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume traces the history of Oneness Pentecostalism in North America. It maps the major ideas, arguments, periodization, and historical figures; corrects long-standing misinterpretations; and draws attention to how race and gender impacted the growth and trajectories of this movement. Oneness Pentecostalism emerged in the aftermath of the Azusa Street Revival (1906–9), baptizing its members in the name of Jesus Christ rather than the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and splintering from trinitarian Pentecostals. With its rapid growth throughout the twentieth century, especially among ethnic minorities, Oneness Pentecostalism assumed a diversity of theological, ethnic, and cultural expressions. This book reckons with the multiculturalism of the movement over the course of the twentieth century. While common interpretations tend to emphasize the restorationist impulse of Oneness Pentecostalism, leading to notions of a static, unchanging movement, the contributors to this work demonstrate that the movement is much more fluid and that the interpretation of its history and theology should be grounded in the variegated North American contexts in which Oneness Pentecostalism has taken root and dynamically developed. Groundbreaking and interdisciplinary, this volume presents diverse perspectives on a significant religious movement whose modern origins are embedded within the larger Pentecostal story. It will be welcomed by religious studies scholars and by practitioners of Oneness Pentecostalism. In addition to the editors, the contributors to this volume are Daniel Chiquete, Dara Coleby Delgado, Patricia Fortuny-Loret de Mola, Manuel Gaxiola, David Reed, Rosa Sailes, and Daniel Segraves.
