The Earliest Days of British Pentecostalism

Abstract

If European Pentecostals want to enter the public debate, they have to associate themselves with these immigrant churches. They also have to revise their theological programmes. They will have to rediscover their own oral theology. That oral theology has no academic dignity is a superstition of our European institutions for higher education. Our Lord has proved that oral culture can become transparent for seminal theology. Why do we not follow his example and thus help our educational institutions to become theologically and socially relevant? The Earliest Days of British Pentecostalism: Neil Hudson
