Description
Summary:This article is a constructive work in ecclesiology from a Pentecostal perspective. It is proposed that the unique nature of Pentecostal spirituality and theology combine to form several bases for the doctrine of the church. Written for a Pentecostal-Orthodox dialogue, it will be clear that there are several crossovers in this proposal for a pneumatic ecclesiology that resonates well with the Eastern Churches. Three areas receive attention in this proposal: first, an encounter with the Spirit as a basis for a Pentecostal ecclesiology; second, the ministry of the Spirit and gifts as a basis for the church’s mission; and third, leadership through the Spirit as a basis for discipleship.
