Abstract Numbers 11 is a foundational passage for OT pneumatology and supports pentecostal theology and practice. There, God, through Moses, expressed his plan that all believers should be empowered for prophetic ministry by the Holy Spirit. That experience of the seventy elders involved a kind of prophesying that was probably praise and prayer in tongues, as in Acts 2.

AbstractIn another instance of a long and fruitful effort to engage and encourage Pentecostal theologians, appreciatively and constructively, in making their own distinctive contributions to the larger theological world, renowned evangelical theologian Clark Pinnock has here sketched a suggestive proposal for the construction of a distinctly Pentecostal ecclesiology. Originally presented as the keynote address at the 34th annual meeting of the Society for Pentecostal Studies at Regent University in Virginia Beach, VA on March 11, 2005, this paper appears here as the featured dialogue piece followed by responses from three Pentecostal theologians, Frank D. Macchia, Terry L. Cross, and R. Hollis Gause. Pinnock’s proposal for a Pentecostal theology of the church is here outlined in terms of the following themes: (1) An Anointed Herald of God’s Kingdom, (2) A Trinitarian Society, (3) A Church Oriented to Mission, (4) A Continuing Charismatic Structure, and (5) An Institutional Dimension.

The question of what it means to be baptized with the Holy Spirit and how it happens, has created many great dividing lines and even endless debates from the past until now among Christians. Also the debate regarding the time and way of being baptized in the Holy Spirit also often becomes a polemic at the time of repentance or after? To answer this problem, this research was carried out using a qualitative method with a library approach, namely by collecting information from various textbooks and journals, then the researchers analyzed the concept of baptism and the concept of the baptism of the Holy Spirit as a conceptual framework that can provide a theological frame for how the baptism of the Holy Spirit is carried out. in Pentecostal Theology and its implications for believers. The conclusion of this study is how the implications of the baptism of the Holy Spirit which are agreed upon and experienced by people who believe in the Lord Jesus Christ increasingly give power and a very strong commitment to service for believers in their devotion to God.Pertanyaan tentang arti dibaptis dengan Roh Kudus dan bagaimana hal itu terjadi, sudah banyak membuat garis pemisah besar bahkan perdebatan yang tiada ujung dari dulu sampai saat ini di kalangan umat kristiani. Juga perdebatan terkait waktu dan cara seseorang dibaptis Roh Kudus juga sering kali menjadi polemik saat bertobat atau setelahnya?. Untuk menjawab permasalah ini maka dilakukan tinjauan pustaka, yaitu dengan cara menganalisis tentang konsep baptisan dan konsep baptisan Roh Kudus sebagai sebuah kerangka konsep yang dapat memberikan bingkai teologis bagaimana baptisan Roh Kudus dalam Teologi Pentakosta dan implikasinya bagi orang percaya. Implikasi dari baptisan Roh Kudus yang diamini dan dialami orang percaya semakin memberi kuasa dan komitmen pelayanan yang sangat kuat bagi orang percaya dalam pengabdiannya kepada Allah.

Wolfgang Vondey’s Pentecostal Theology: Living the Full Gospel is a tour de force in Pentecostal systematic theology. It is also the most articulate statement of the fivefold gospel’s power to explain the impulses of past Pentecostal spirituality and its constructive potential for future Pentecostal discourse. Combining both traditional and innovative systematic loci, Vondey’s project shows great promise for the enterprise of christologically oriented narrative theology. One looming question is whether the christocentrism of the full gospel can bear adequate witness to some of the details of Spirit christology. That is, can the full gospel, with its emphasis on Jesus actively bestowing the Holy Spirit on creatures, give proper place to Jesus passively receiving the Holy Spirit from the Father, without the full gospel’s structure undergoing fundamental transformation? While some ambiguities remain in Vondey’s attempts to employ both the full gospel and elements of Spirit christology in the same theological paradigm, he takes long strides towards integrating these two themes that have often competed with each other for space in Pentecostal theology.

AbstractC.S. Lewis explained the divine-human interface that occurs through the operation of the Holy Spirit in the experience of believers through his principle of transposition, exemplified in the practice of speaking in tongues. The main import of transposition is an adaptation from a higher to a lower medium. Transposition suggests tongues speech is an adaptation of a supernatural experience of the divine Holy Spirit to the natural medium of human expression. Being initially embarrassed by tongues but still intrigued by its biblical precedents, Lewis transports glossolalia from the realm of the hysterical into the realm of the holy. Taking Lewis’ idea even further, a Pentecostal approach to transposition suggests tongues speech is an event including supernatural, incarnational, transformational, sacramental, and eschatological nuances far beyond the status of mere ecstatic speech. The principle of transposition holds incredible potential for Pentecostal theology and spirituality.

Abstract The aim of the present article is to analyse the way in which the main Christian traditions define the charismata, or the gifts of the Holy Spirit. As we shall see, the definitions provided by the Catholic, the Eastern Orthodox or the Reformed Theologies are very broad, while in Pentecostal theology charismata have a rather technical meaning. Finally, we will observe that a good clarification of the concepts in question could help the development of the interfaith theological dialogue, from the pneumatological point of view.

AbstractThis article explores three historical components of Pentecostal theology that influenced Pentecostal missionary women by examining missions after the Pentecostal revival of the early twentieth century. This article presents four case studies of such Pentecostals and their responses to Pentecostal experiences and missionary careers for ongoing theological consideration about what it means to 'Go into all the world' as a Pentecostal. According to this study, the Pentecostal experience and reliance on the Holy Spirit was a significant part of Pentecostal women's call to and empowerment for missions, in facing the challenges of missionary service with Pentecostal eschatology, and in following the biblical mandate and narrative to serve in the power of the Spirit with gospel proclamation and accompanying 'signs and wonders'.

There are few accounts of the theologies of African Independent Churches (AICs), or of how such texts might be developed from what is an essentially oral phenomenon. In consequence, AIC students encounter difficulties in obtaining theological training appropriate for their churches. This article is an interim report on the process of recording such a theology – that of the Holy Spirit Church of East Africa. Based on insights from recent scholars in the fields of African Pentecostal theology, and contextual and local theologies, together with the work of practitioners in the network of the Organization of African Independent Churches, the article proposes a methodology for recording the faith of a predominantly oral church. It then describes a workshop held by the church in 2016, with attention to the ways in which this methodology was worked out in practice. The article explores some of the issues raised by academic engagement with an oral community of faith, and suggests one means by which the lack of dialogue between AIC oral theologies and theologies of the western academic traditions might be addressed.
