How Jesus Defined Christianity
n How Jesus Defined Christianity: His 7 Original Mandates, Dr. Jon Ruthven unpacks God's purpose for humanity from Adam through Jesus (hint: it's more than just reading your Bible and going to church). This book offers a revolutionary and thoroughly biblical vision to commune with God and bring the kingdom of heaven to earth.Over the last fifty years, Dr. Ruthven has had a massive impact in bringing the power of the Holy Spirit to center stage among theologians, as well as in training some of the notable pioneers in charismatic Christianity, including Randy Clark and Rolland Baker. One of Dr. Ruthven's unique contributions in the debate between cessationists and continuationists was to bring attention back to the big picture emphases of Scripture. Now, the culmination of this theologian's life work is
The Whale in the Living Room
'Two hundred miles off the coast of New Orleans, in the clear blue open sea, I'm starting to know what being in deep water means. My dive computer is going nuts, beeping an alarm in rapid descent. 43, 44, 45 metres, soon I'll be deeper than a scuba diver on air can safely dive. I'm tumbling head over heels like an ostracod - one of the many strange creatures here that defy our imagination. It's hard to say what's up or down. I'm in freefall, an aquanaut lost in space.' The Whale in Your Room follows the thrilling adventures of BBC Blue Planet producer, John Ruthven, on a journey of discovery that helped the marine world flow into your living room via the TV. For many, the oceans are missing ...

Hearing God’s Voice: Towards a Theology of Contemporary Pentecostal Revelatory Experience
The revelatory experience or in common parlance, “hearing God’s voice,” is prized by Pentecostal-Charismatic Christians for its contribution to spirituality, yet remains one of the most problematic areas of church life. Theological tensions and pastoral fallout have plagued the experience since the time of the New Testament. Drawing on the tools of practical theology, this book presents the findings of a unique and ground-breaking study among Australian Pentecostals. With a theological framework modelled on New Testament practice and undergirded by the accountability of the local church, many of the problems associated with revelatory experience can be addressed and the experience fully harnessed for kingdom purpose.
Church, Identity, and Change
Since colonial days, religious work in American has happened through denominations. At least since the start of the twentieth century, these religious bodies consisted of a fairly tight, intra-denominationally connected system of congregations, regional judicatories, and national offices. This system was the product of more than two centuries of consolidation among Americanbs historic immigrant and indigenous churches. The vast majority of these structures are still in place, retain some semblance of internal coherence, have considerable social and religious significance, and will be with us for the foreseeable future. Nevertheless, the stresses upon them today clearly indicate that they are entering an unsettled period of transition. The purpose of this book is to examine the national structures of eight diverse Protestant denominations as a part of that shift. The frame of this study is the relationship between the theological and organizational nature of national denominational structures as they adapt to the changing situation of the twenty-first century.
Who Are You
Identity is an issue for both Christian and non-Christians alike, in that they look virtually the same. Our societies imply that if you have or possess a certain item, so you are able to do what you need to do, all so you can possibly be who you are. This is not the biblical example of Jesus and God's original intention. Part of the issue is that some churches, evangelists, and Bible teachers are singularly focused upon the broken image of Adam and Eve. They rush to the story of the fall of humanity to prove the point that we are fatally broken, flawed, and are in need of a savior. There we stay presented with a corrupted, broken, and distorted image of what humanity is. Without knowing who we were supposed to be, we will have no idea of what we are aiming for. How then can we carry out the commands of Jesus (Matthew 10:7""8; 28:19""20, Luke 16:15), or the proclamations of Luke 4:18""19 or Isaiah 61:1""2, without knowing who we are? The purpose of this book is to help you begin to see what it was and who it is that you are created to be.

Apostles Today
Are apostles amongst us today? According to a growing section of the church, the answer is yes. This book investigates and appraises that idea seeking answers to the following questions in the context of the church in the USA and particularly Britain: Is there a robust scriptural justification for the charismatic apostolate (CA) that most charismatic groups are proclaiming? How widespread is this belief and why has it become more commonplace? What kind of apostles are being advocated by influential popular teachers? What does church history and tradition have to offer to this idea? Is there a way to endorse and embrace ecumenically the CA? Does the CA have a future in the universal church? These are important questions to answer for the sake of the church's mission and health.
