Book A Guide to Pentecostal Movements for Lutherans

Download or read book A Guide to Pentecostal Movements for Lutherans written by Sarah Hinlicky Wilson and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2016-07-06 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In just over a century, Pentecostalism has rocketed from its humble beginnings in an interracial congregation on Azusa Street in Los Angeles to a global movement counting more than six hundred million members. Confronted with the bewildering array of Pentecostal, Charismatic, and Neocharismatic beliefs and practices, Lutherans are often at a loss as to how to think about Pentecostals, much less how to engage them in positive ways that build up the whole body of Christ. In this guide, Lutherans will find tools for just such an engagement. Building on a foundation of Pentecostalism's history and varieties, Wilson undertakes an in-depth survey of biblical teaching on baptism, the Holy Spirit, and spiritual gifts. The guide then brings innovative new lenses to bear on the questions at stake: the use of church history in defending denominational borders, right and wrong approaches to prosperity, the power of the Spirit and corruptions of power, and the role of experience in theological discernment. Written in a style accessible to laity and clergy alike, this guide will strengthen Lutherans' appreciation of their own tradition while enabling them to encounter Pentecostals as fellow believers in the salvation given by the triune God.

Book excerpt: This useful guide offers a critical appraisal of a theological movement within the church catholic. The authors, a church historian and a systematic theologian, describe Lutheranism as centered in the fundamental principle of the Reformation, "justification by faith apart from works of law."The book focuses on the emergence of this chief article of faith as a proposal of dogma to the church ecumenical, its theological formulation, and its significance for the shaping of piety and doctrine. Each issue is treated in terms of both confessional history and systematic theology. Seminarians, pastors, teachers, and interested laypersons of all traditions will gain ecumenical insights as well as pertinent information from this work.

Book The Lutherans in the Movements for Church Union  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Lutherans in the Movements for Church Union Classic Reprint written by J. L. Neve and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-08-26 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Lutherans in the Movements for Church Union What is offered in this-book is a reprint taken from articles as they appeared in the Lutheran Quarterly (gettysburg, during the years from January 1918 to July 1921. The suggestion for the preparation of these detailed historical reviews was received when in the fall of 1917 we promised to read a paper before the American Society of Church History in New York on the Union Movements between the Lutherans and the Re formed. After having given the matter a little more thought we felt that it was impossible to treat this sub ject with any degree of adequacy in a single paper. We therefore decided to limit ourselves in our reading before the Society to a discussion of the union movements in the Sixteenth century, which culminated in the Witten berg Concord, and then to continue our investigation along the line indicated in the table of contents of this book, thus covering all the efforts at union with the Re formed, in which the Lutheran Church has been engaged. The contents of Chapter V was read at another meeting of the American Society of Church History. The author is grateful to Drs. William W. Rockwell and Henry Preserved Smith, professors in Union Theological Seminary, for their courtesy in making possible for him the use of a very valuable collection of works on Polem ics and Irenics, which was gathered in Germany by the late Dr. Briggs and which is now a part of the library of Union Theological Seminary. He also acknowledges with much appreciation some valuable aid received from the Reference Department of the Lutheran Bureau in New York.

Book Historical Dictionary of Lutheranism

Download or read book Historical Dictionary of Lutheranism written by Günther Gassmann and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2011-10-10 with total page 561 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Reformation of the 16th century was a complex and multifaceted political, social, cultural, and religious process. Most historians agree, however, that in the framework of this process it was the religious and theological efforts to reform and renew the late medieval church—decadent and irrelevant in many ways—that were the initiating forces that set a broad historical movement in motion. Among these reforming religious and theological forces, the Lutheran reform movement was the most important and influential one. It was the historical impact of the theological genius of the Wittenberg professor Martin Luther (1483-1546) that profoundly changed and shaped the face of Europe and beyond. Today, Lutheranism has become a worldwide communion of churches that stretches from Germany to Siberia, Papua New Guinea, Madagascar, and Surinam. The second edition of the Historical Dictionary of Lutheranism presents information on major theological issues, historical developments of Lutheranism worldwide, Lutheran ecumenical and missionary involvement and activities, worship and liturgy, spirituality, social ethics, inter-religious and Jewish relations, Lutheranism and the arts, theology, and important representatives of Lutheranism. This is done through a detailed chronology, an introductory essay, an appendix of Lutheran Churches, a bibliography, and hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries. This book is an excellent access point for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Lutheranism.
