Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Baptism in the Spirit' is named after the controversial Pentecostal doctrine, arguing for its authenticity using scriptural evidence and critics of Dunn's first monograph of the same name. The Dunn Debate, the modern phase of Pentecostal debate surrounding the Luke-Acts, started with this monograph - Dunn's published doctoral research. William P. Atkinson furthers the on-going, lively debate, examining the centrality of the doctrine with detailed reference to recent critics and supporters of Dunn, such as Howard Ervin, James Shelton, Max Turner, and the ground-breaking Roger Stronstad. Atkinson emphasises that the canonical context of the Pentecost in Luke-Acts elucidates the argument with its real connection to the Biblical background. The result is a balanced look at the doctrine of baptism in the Holy Spirit and the challenges that face the Pentecostal church today. Written for Pentecostals, this text supports the doctrine of baptism of the Holy Spirit and provides extensive Lukan pneumatology. 'Baptism in the Spirit' will be helpful for the lay and Pastoral communities, and will be an important book for academic Pentecostal scholars. William P. Atkinson is a British Pentecostal minister with a congregation in Essex, and is Associate Research Fellow at the London School of Theology. He is author of the award-winning 'The 'Spiritual Death' of Jesus' (2009). 'A correct understanding of what it means to be baptised in the Holy Spirit is of vital importance, not only to the Pentecostal Movement, but to the entire Christian Church of the twenty-first century. William Atkinson's book is a valuable contribution to the discussion, summarizing and critiquing the views of key Pentecostal scholars in relation to Dunn and offering a refreshing conclusion of its own. It will undoubtedly prove essential reading for Pentecostal scholars and Bible College students alike.' David Petts, Honorary Academic Fellow, University of Wales.
