Understanding the Bible Through a Pentecostal Lens with Dr. Kenneth Archer


Listen Later

In this episode I got to speak with Dr. Kenneth Archer, a theology professor at Trinity Bible College, about Pentecostal hermeneutics. We discuss the unique ways Pentecostals interpret the Bible compared to traditional evangelicals, early Pentecostal reading methods, and how these interpretations affect views on topics like miracles, sacraments, and women in ministry. Dr. Archer emphasizes the formative role of the Holy Spirit and community in shaping Pentecostal understanding. We also touch on challenges in modern theological discussions, such as same-sex marriage and the influence of cultural contexts. The conversation includes practical insights into the evolving dynamics within Pentecostalism and its broader theological implications.
