| Summary: | This article explores the pertinence of fallibilism for Pentecostal theological epistemology. It begins by examining epistemological fallibilism as developed within the philosophy of science, particularly through the work by Charles S. Peirce. On this background, the discussion turns to three key themes: the nature of faith, Pentecostal experiences, and the potential ontological implications of fallibilism. Through an exploratory engagement with Pentecostal scholars, the article demonstrates how fallibilism can serve as a valuable resource for Pentecostal theological epistemology. Moreover, it argues that fallibilism extends beyond a purely epistemological concern, encompassing virtues that are vital for the broader Pentecostal philosophical and theological endeavour, including its scholarly community. |
