Get PDFThe Presence of the Spirit in Certain Kinds of Painful Experiences
Get PDFAndrew Gabriel’s book The Lord is the Spirit presents a well-written, innovative and effective critique of classical theism. The primary approaches to this in recent decades have been by way of Christology, an analysis of the nature of love or through feminist analysis of women’s experience. The Lord is the Spirit shows how pneumatology clashes with classical theism’s understanding of God as unaffected by the world so well, that reading it made me wonder why no one had thought of doing this before. It’s a significant contribution to pneumatology and the doctrine of God

Get PDFThis paper focuses on the post-war ministry of two relatively well known evangelists in Italy, Phil and Louie Palermo. Their ministry track took them out of the Italian ghettos of Chicago, into the American evangelical mainstream, and then around the world with the ‘new evangelicalism’ of Youth for Christ and Billy Graham. Their negotiation of an Italo-American identity on both sides of the Atlantic is instructive as to the cultural assumptions of the post War evangelical coalition, and how the world was viewed from middle American revivalism
Ecce Homo? The Divine Anthropology of Albert B. Simpson
Get PDFThe Christology of Albert B. Simpson, founder of The Christian and Missionary Alliance, like the Apollinarian heresy, asserts that while Christ’s body and soul were of the created order, his spirit was divine. This paper will show that, in Simpson’s opinion, Christ’s possession of a divine spirit was not contrary to essential human being but was, instead, foundational to true humanity. While such humanity is no longer readily observable, Scripture locates it in at least two, if not three, occasions: in the Garden, in redeemed humanity, and in the Incarnation. Consequently, the divine-spirit bearing Christ is not alien to essential human being and is, therefore, perfectly suited to serve as its Representative and Redeemer. In conclusion, this article will discuss the extent that an assumed, but not explicated, anthropology—such as existed during the classical Christological debates—may play in determining the orthodoxy of a given Christology
