Описание: Despite secular trends in many western countries, religion continues to be a powerful force globally. The Pentecostal movement began early in the 20th century and there are now almost 450 million supporters around the world. Despite this, it is riddled with prejudice and misinformation. William K. Kay reveals the truth about Pentecostalism.
GK Chesterton said; anyone who takes down a piece of a fence should always first pause as to why it was put up in the first place." I give Chesterton credit for coming to the truth that we do, indeed, need a fence, but he missed the mark in not pausing long enough to question the fence itself. When Roman Catholicism dejudiazed the traditions written in The Bible, they ripped down a wall that can never be replaced, and in its place erected a fence that merely resembles the wall. Ever since that time Christians have been tearing down and rebuilding this fence, and implicit in this ridiculous action lies the fact that the entire fence is inadequate. A fence cannot contain what a wall was meant to contain, and no matter how hard man tries he cannot rebuild or improve upon what God has already built, he can only yield to it. Until men consider how best to re-erect the original wall, they will always find themselves in the ridiculous position of patching and re-patching an old tattered fence- like an old shepherd who is too proud, attached, and blind to admit that his little fence is obsolete and unable to protect his flock from the wolves. The Christmas tree is rather symbolic of modern day Christendom. The danger in adding new customs and laws into a society is not in the customs themselves; it is that they trivialize the true Laws and customs which had real moral meaning in them. Jesus, when holding the "traditions of the Pharisees" in contempt, for this very reason; ended the conversation with decisiveness, stating, "every tree that my Heavenly Father has not planted must be uprooted".
The Christmas tree is symbolic, in that it is a tree without roots; and we know what happened to the seed that sprang up quickly but had no root; it withered quickly. Christendom has been as a swinging pendulum; swinging from one extreme to the other; from piety one generation to profanity to the next-- because it has no root. Both the pastor and the politician have warned us of these things. The politician feared that the truth would be concealed from us. The pastor feared that the truth would be drowned in a sea of irrelevant nonsense. The politician feared the systematic dismantling of the bonds in our local communities. The pastor feared that no such bonds would exist. The politician believed we would become a captive culture. The pastor feared that we would become a trivial culture, preoccupied with vacation time, reality television, and drunken games. In short, the politician feared that inflicting pain would oppress us; the pastor feared that inflicting pleasure would oppress us. We are starting to now realize is that the fears of the politician, are quickly becoming a reality, because the pastor's fears have long been our reality. The obvious shortcomings of our modern system of law and government give reason to call them into consideration. This treatise not only calls into consideration the current systems of Law--both religious and civil, but also proposes a new Government that encompasses both. This is a political treatise on the genesis of a civil society. It takes man in his state in nature, and then illustrates how a civil society spontaneously arises from his action. Composed of many short essays compiled into three books, it outlines the genesis of society, the need for Absolutes in that society, and the third is on the unfolding of Scripture which brings together the first two together, in a coherent worldview.
