Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The life and labors of D. S. Warner are so closely associated with a religious movement that any attempt at his biography becomes in part necessarily a history of that movement. I have therefore chosen the term, Birth of a Reformation, as a part of the title of this book. Brother Warner (to use an appellation in keeping with the idea of universal Christian brotherhood) was doubtless chosen of God as an instrument for accomplishing a particular work. What that work was, why it may be called a reformation, and why, in particular, it may be considered the last reformation, a few words of explanation by way of introduction are offered the inquiring reader. It will be necessary to take a brief glance over the Christian era and review some of the important events and conditions. We note the characteristics of the church in the days of the apostles, which, by reason of its recent founding and organization by the Holy Spirit, is naturally regarded as exemplary and ideal. It had no creed but the Scriptures and no government but that administered by the Holy Spirit, who 'set the members in the body as it pleased him'—apostles, prophets, teachers, evangelists, pastors, etc. Thus subject to the Spirit, the early church was flexible, capable of expansion and of walking in all the truth and of adjusting itself to all conditions. It was in very essence the church, the whole, and not a section or part. The apostles and early believers did not restrict themselves and become a Jewish Christian sect or any other kind of sect. Peter's way of thinking would have thus limited him, for as a Jew he declined any particular interest in Gentile converts; but the Lord through a vision changed his mind and advanced his understanding to include the universality of the Christian kingdom. The Holy Spirit in the heart was necessary, of course, to the successful government of the church by the Spirit, otherwise he could not have been understood. There were no dividing lines, for it was the will of the Lord particularly that there be "one fold and one shepherd." Jesus had prayed in behalf of the disciples "that they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me". These conditions of being subject to the word and Spirit, of leaving an open door through which greater light and truth might enter as was necessary, and of possessing the love and unity of spirit that cemented the believers together and carried them through all their persecution, constituted the ideal and normal status of God's church on earth as he gave it beginning, of which it was ordained that there should be but one, only one, as long as the world should endure. "There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling".

Download or read book Patterns of Reformation written by Gordon Rupp and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2009-05-18 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Patterns of Reformation describes Oecolampadius' drastic scholarship and teaching about the Eucharist, particularly his support of Zwingli against Luther. Karlstadt was a pioneer of a later Puritanism who was to some extent a precursor of seventeenth-century English Puritan piety. He prefigured not only the radical Reformers but in a considerable degree the Reformed as distinct from the Lutheran tradition. His eucharistic teaching was radical in the extreme. Thomas Mÿntzer was a rebel who grows in historical stature. Spiritualist as he was, he was devoted to the Scriptures and a liturgiologist worthy of comparison with Cranmer between whose principles and his own there is a large measure of agreement. Dr. Rupp called him one of the most fascinating and tragic of God's delinquent children. Vadianus lived in St. Gall and as Burgomaster guided the Reforming movement into peaceful ways. He was a born student and historian, whose life has been preserved by the thumbnail sketches of the inspired gossip and friend, Kessler.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study one finds the missiological inheritance of the first Reformed missiologist Johan Herman Bavinck in an organized and systematic form. The following topics are discussed: theology of religion, biblical theology of missions, elenctics (mission apologetics), and practical subjects such as inculturation, ecumenism and the race issue. The context in which Bavinck developed his vision is discussed in an explicit way. Special attention is given to the influence of Hendrik Kramer on Bavinck's development as well as the psychological dimension in his theologizing. The author evaluates the relevancy of Bavinck's missiology for the development of a Reformed missiology. The above is made complete by an extensive biographical sketch shedding light on the background and way of life of this Johan Herman Bavinck.

A Belding, Including Sixty Years of Ministerial Pioneer Work It is well that this book has been written. The life of its central figure spans the entire history of the current reformation. His ministerial experience dates from an early period in the his tory of the Disciples of Christ. He was a com panion of many of the mighty men who, under God, were agents in the inauguration of a move ment for the union of Christians in order to the evangelization of the world by a return, in faith and life, to the religion described on the pages of the New Testament. The incidents in this long and unusually busy life, recorded in this volume, throw not a little light on the early history of the Disciples. To read them will enable one, in im agination, to live in the midst of the stirring scenes of those early years. This will be of prae tical value. Inspiration to more intelligent and heroic endeavor in behalf of the Christianity of Christ will follow. The time, in our growth, has come for the publication of such records. Too many of our aged men, pioneers in this good work, have passed from earth without telling the storv of their trials and triumphs. Our poverty is greater on account of this failure.

Book excerpt: Daniel Sidney Warner was a holiness evangelist, editor, and reformer of the late 1800's. His ministerial labors helped establish the Church of God reformation movement. He served as the first editor of THE GOSPEL TRUMPET, a holiness journal published by the Church of God until his heavenly reward in 1895. A. L. Byers, companion of Warner, wrote this biography in 1921. The life and labors of D. S. Warner are so closely associated with a religious movement that any attempt at his biography becomes in part necessarily a history of that movement. I have therefore chosen the term, Birth of a Reformation, as a part of the title of this book.
