Description
Summary:This article will explore Carlton Pearson’s Metacostalism as an example of the continuing problem of Pentecostal heterodoxy within the Pentecostal-Charismatic Movement. These theological currents, which are often found at the margins, represent a unique growing subset of Pentecostal believers that do not fit regular Evangelical orthodoxy. In considering the future of Pentecostal theology, this article will suggest that Pentecostal heterodoxy will only grow as conventional Evangelical orthodoxy continues to face sharp criticism and deconstruction. It will suggest that Pearson’s Pentecostal heterodoxy is an example of the type of conversations that will inform the future of Pentecostal thought.
