One of the core Pentecostal teachings is the prophethood of all believers. Most people understand that we are all priests, based in the reformation teaching of Martin Luther, but Classical Pentecostalism teaches that we are all prophets as well, empowered by the Spirit of God to speak His word. What difference does this make in Pentecostalism? What should are worship gatherings look like if we truly believe all can be used by the Spirit of God to speak for God? Join Dr. True today as he unpacks this important topic.

What does it mean to be a Classical Pentecostal? Are there elements of Classical Pentecostalism that are unique and different from other segments of the Evangelical church? Over the next few episodes, Dr. True is going to unpack some of his research on a Pentecostal worldview and the unique perspectives that lie underneath the Classical Pentecostal faith. 

In this episode, Dr. True is going to look at the Pentecostal problem. By looking at our Pentecostal educational institutions, one can see where we adopted the philosophy and methods of the fundamentalists and evangelicals that have put us where we are today in the Pentecostal movement, almost indistinguishable apart from our theology. Have a listen today.

In this episode, Dr. True looks at the liturgical tradition, and specifically their sacrament of confirmation. What many may not know is the way this ceremony represents a Pentecostal experience. Dr. True will share footage from Dr. Chris E. W. Green, a Pentecostal theologian and bishop of the Diocese of Saint Anthony. He will also read an article by Catholic theologian Marek Kluz on confirmation in the thought of Pope Benedict. In all of this, we will see the strong connections between confirmation and an empowering, sanctifying experience of the Holy Spirit.

Pentecostal Fire in Other Traditions. In this series, we've been looking at how the fires of Pentecost burn in other Christian traditions. This week, we look at the Wesleyan Tradition. John Wesley, founder of Methodism and the modern holiness movement, taught that there was an experience of sanctification beyond the initial moment of justification. The holiness movement tied this experience of Entire Sanctification with the Baptism in the Holy Spirit. In this episode, Dr. True looks at a Wesleyan perspective on Entire Sanctification and the Baptism in the Holy Spirit.
