Böcker av Emilio Alvarez

Reimpresión del original, primera publicación en 1875.

"Pentecost is one of the most misunderstood days on the church calendar. In this Fullness of Time volume, Emilio Alvarez offers us a rich biblical and theological introduction to the day of Pentecost and sets it in its liturgical context-not only in the Protestant tradition but also in Catholic, Orthodox, and Pentecostal expressions"--

"Can anything orthodox come from Pentecostalism?" This recasting of Nathaniel's familiar question from the Gospel is a fair summary of many modern Christians' assessment of the Pentecostal tradition. Yet in recent years, a growing number of Pentecostals have been turning afresh to the ancient, creedal Christian faith.Bishop Emilio Alvarez has himself been at the forefront of this movement. In Pentecostal Orthodoxy he introduces the phenomenon, and extends the project of paleo-orthodox ressourcement (associated with scholars such as Thomas Oden and Robert Webber) to include orthodox expressions within Pentecostalism, particularly his own Afro-Latino Pentecostal movement. This book is a manifesto of sorts, promising not only to open up the possibility of a genuinely orthodox Pentecostalism, but to reframe modern ecumenical dialogue as well.
