As a phenomenon of the African American church, Afro-Pentecostalism is expressive of an African heritage, a Holiness-liberationist perspective, the pivotal leadership of W. J. Seymour, and the enduring legacy of the Azusa Street Revival. Fourteen scholars come together in an edited volume to explore various aspects of this overarching theme.

As well as the Holiness background we must also consider modernity’s influence on Pentecostalism. Timothy Weber claims that modernity pushed many evangelicals into various forms of theological liberalism.41 Biological and sociological evolution theory challenged the existence of God undermining the foundations of Christian belief while higher criticism seemed to undermine the inspiration and veracity of Scripture. The economic uplift of modernity and its emerging middle class resulted in many denominations mainstreaming to appeal to this steadily growing, and influential group. Pentecostalism protested what it considered spiritual sterility, and the accommodation of modernity’s worldview within the mainline denominations.42 Purdy, H. G. (2015).

A Oneness Pentecostal View of the Temporal Aspects of Salvation

The Universal Need for Salvation The Bible emphatically declares that all human beings are sinners (I Kings 8:46; Proverbs 20:9; Isaiah 64:6). All mankind is under sin and is guilty before God (Romans 3:9, 19). “There is none righteous, no, not one” (Romans 3:10). “For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23). Because of this, all mankind is under the sentence of death. “For the wages of sin is death” (Romans 6:23). “Sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death” (James 1:15). Everyone needs salvation from sin and its penalty, death. In general, salvation can refer to any kind of deliverance, preservation, or liberation. In the context of Scripture, salvation means deliverance from all the power and effects of sin, and it has past, present, and future aspects. Bernard, David K.. Essentials of the New Birth .

Chalcedon, Council of (451). Fourth ecumenical council, the chief task of which consisted of defining the doctrine of the two natures in the one person (or hypostasis) of Jesus Christ. The debate that characterized this council arose from the contrast between two christological tendencies.

The Council of Ephesus, also known as the Third Ecumenical Council, was a gathering of leaders of the Christian churches in the Roman Empire to deal with the Nestorian controversy. It was held over several sessions in 431 at the Church of Mary in Ephesus, Asia Minor (modern Turkey).

Doctrinally, it adopted what became known to the church as the Niceno-Constantinopolitan Creed (commonly referred to as the Nicene Creed), which effectively affirmed and developed the creed earlier promulgated at the Council of Nicaea in 325 (Creed of Nicaea).

The Spirit as identified with Jesus Christ. The most important development and element in earliest Christian understanding of the Spirit is that the Spirit is now the Spirit of Jesus Christ (Acts 16:7; Rom 8:9; Gal 4:6; Phil 1:19; 1 Pt 1:11; see also Jn 7:38; 15:26; 16:7; 19:30; Rv 3:1; 5:6). The Spirit is to be identified as the Spirit that bears witness to Jesus (Jn 15:26; 16:13–15; Acts 5:32; 1 Cor 12:3; 1 Jn 4:2; 5:7–8; Rv 19:10), but also, and more profoundly, as the Spirit that inspired and empowered Jesus himself. This Spirit became available to the believers after Christ’s resurrection. The apostles John and Paul were quite clear in their writings about Christ becoming spirit through resurrection. The keynote verses penned by John are: 1. John 6:63 2. John 7:37–39 3. John 14:16–18 4. John 20:22 5. 1 John 3:24 6. John 4:13. The critical passages written by Paul are: 1. Romans 8:9–10 2. 1 Corinthians 15:45 3. 2 Corinthians 3:17–18 4. 1 Corinthians 6:17 Revelation concerning the Spirit of Jesus is progressive in the Gospel of John. a. John does not tell us from the beginning that people could not actually receive eternal life until the hour of Christ’s glorification. b. Throughout the Gospel, Jesus declares to various people that he can give them eternal life if they would believe in him. c. He promises them the water of life, the bread of life, and the light of life. NOTE: But no one could really partake of these until after the Lord had risen. As a foretaste, as a sample, they could receive life via the Lord’s words because his words were themselves spirit and life (Jn 6:63). However, it was not until the Spirit would become available that believers could actually become the recipients of the divine, eternal life. After the Lord’s discourse in John 6, Jesus said: “It is the Spirit that gives life, the flesh profits nothing” (v 63). In the flesh Jesus could not give them the bread of life, but when the Spirit became available, they could have life. Again, Jesus offered the water of life—even life flowing like rivers of living water—to the Jews assembled at the Feast of Tabernacles. He told them to come and drink of him. But no one could, then and there, come and drink of him. So John added a note: “But this he spoke concerning the Spirit, for the Spirit was not yet because Jesus was not yet glorified” (7:39). Once Jesus would be glorified through resurrection, the Spirit of the glorified Jesus would be available for people to drink. John 6, Jesus offered himself as the bread of life to be eaten by people. John 7, he offered himself as the water of life to refresh men. But no one could eat him or drink him until he became spirit, as was intimated in John 6:63 and then stated plainly in John 7:39.

Dyothelites (δυοθελῆται), a name given to those orthodox Christians in the 7th century who held that there were two wills in Christ, a divine and a human, in opposition to the Monothelites (q. v.). The sixth œcumenical council (i. e. the third Œcumenical Council of Constantinople), called by the emperor Constantine Pogonatus in A.D. 680, asserted the doctrine of two wills in Christ in the following terms: “Two wills and two natural modes of operation united with each other, without opposition or change, so that no antagonism can be found to exist between them, but a constant subjection of the human will to the divine.” The champions of monothelism were anathematized, as well as the patriarchs of Constantinople and the pontiff Honorius. The monothelite doctrine was placed in the ascendency in 711, but two years later Anastasius II ascended the throne and established dyothelism, whereupon the monothelites fled the country.
