Spirit of the Last Days: Pentecostal Eschatology in Conversation with Jrgen Moltmann
No Customer Reviews
Early Pentecostals proclaimed the restoration of the charismatic gifts as a sign of the imminent coming of Christ. This eschatology was later marginalized by the rise of fundamentalist dispensationalism. Today Pentecostal eschatology is being revised to include a more transformative view of the kingdom. A further revision of Pentecostal eschatology is proposed to recover prophetic elements of early pentecostalism that invite a responsible social engagement in the world, and to overcome fundamentalist assumptions which have crept into Pentecostal theology in its middle years. To this end, the eschatological thought of selected Pentecostal theologians is placed in dialogue with Jurgen Moltmann. This dialogue critiques fundamentalist tendencies within contemporary pentecostalism by advocating a theology more open to history and creation, and a pentecostal ethic both personal and social in scope.
