Download or read book The Dictionary of Religion written by William Benham and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-05-19 with total page 1158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dictionary of Religion: An Encyclopaedia of Christian and Other Religious Doctrines, Denominations, Sects, Heresies, Ecclesiastical Terms, History, Biography, Etc With regard to the amps of the work, the biographical articles are exclu sively of persons whose course on earth is ended, though of necessity it is imposible to avoid references to living men who have taken part in current controversies. Articles of purely Scriptural History, Topography, and Exegesis, are excluded, as they are already treated of in what are known as Bible Dictionaries. The present volume has to do with Ecclesiastical History and Doctrine, and with the known Religions of the ancient and modern world, and the topics and the persons connected with these subjects. Even with these limitations, the difficulty has been to compress what was required within a manageable compass; and it is believed that the dedication of the space at command to information, much of which is not otherwise readily accessible, was preferable to occupying a large portion of it with details which can be easily referred to elsewhere.

Download or read book Historical Dictionary of the Holiness Movement written by William Kostlevy and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2009-08-03 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is much harder to define a religious movement than it is to define a religion or denomination. That applies especially when that movement almost defies definition as the Holiness Movement does. The Holiness Movement is a Methodist religious renewal movement that has over 12 million adherents worldwide. Perhaps the most familiar public manifestation of the holiness movement has been its urban holiness missions, and the Salvation Army_noted for its service ministries among poor and people suffering the dislocations that accompany war and disaster_is the most notable example. In the second edition of the Historical Dictionary of the Holiness Movement, important new developments in the Holiness Movement_such as the widely discussed 'Holiness Manifesto'_are thoroughly discussed, and the content has also been expanded to include information on figures from Asia and Africa to reflect the continued growth of the Holiness Movement. With a chronology, an introductory essay, a bibliography, and over 400 cross-referenced dictionary entries, this reference has information that cannot be found elsewhere.
