[QUOTE="dms1972, post: 68400556, member: 325736"] This question about the rise of Evangelical theology, is difficult to answer. 'Evangelical' is a word that has a long history. Its now used at times to mean something else, or less than it has meant historically. It signifies a current in a wider river thats has been within christianity from the beginning. Its not an ideological term. It doesn't mean fundamentalist - two common misunderstandings. To speak about it it is needful to disentangle the contemporary american popular understanding of the term from its historical[I] usage . [/I]I don't really know enough however to explain why for instance in a earlier century it was more common to refer to preaching as [I]evangelic[/I] - i would guess the evangel-[I]ical[/I] (the suffix 'ical' rather than 'ic') can be explained in some manner? It seems though that evangelic refered to preaching, and evangelical refers to in addition to preaching, also to groups and individuals. [/QUOTE]
