    Charismatic Christian Theology

    Gordon Fee is a master of hermeneutic exegesis and expository application...I wouldn't discount his take on matters quickly. Most Pentecostal associated colleges use his book on the dialectic and processes of text, as a primary liturgy for conclusion. Even after he questioned doctrine...

    Did Jesus go to hell?

    sorry, I didn't know that. I should have looked more into the rules...is there a forum where I'm allowed to ask questions and give my opinion? I did n't think my reply was teaching, but asserting and opinion. Maybe you should call your superintendent and see how he feels about my stance on this...

    concerns re: emerging/emergent church & its critics - any comments?

    I have done a bit of study into the emergent movement in the past few years.

    for people who never get to know jesus

    Hell as a default destination is a scary proposition, while true, God does not play "duck, duck, damn" with souls and offers Grace to whomever receives it. The sacrifice on the Cross was not limited but for "whomsoever" the simplest explanation of the method of operation is Ecclesiastes 3:10...

    Did Jesus go to hell?

    sorry, dear. I'm certainly not trying to cause trouble, I was just asking a question about doctrinal stance. It interests me to see the AOG's stance on this, it is not a systematical issue, in my opinion. I think everyone should have some opinion on it, I see it's not in your Cardinal Doctrines...

    Did Jesus go to hell?

    cliffs: Jesus on the Cross, says 'it is finished" gives up His Spirit, dies Nicene Creed says He goes to hell, I disagree. what is the AOG stance on this?
