In this authoritative and passionately argued book, Robert Beckford explores the future of Black British Pentecostalism in a society where the notion of White supremacy--even in faith--is all too evident. Drawing on Black, womanist, and post-colonial theologies of liberation, he urges the Black Church to regain its traditional prophetic role as part of its ministry. He suggests that the Caribbean's first liberation theology, Rastafari, has much to offer all Christians concerned with speaking prophetically into social and political life in Britain. Reflecting on aspects of Rastafari, Black Pentecostalism and the meaning of Jesus in the world today, he develops a new model for a Black political faith--a Dread Pentecostal theology.

This book argues that Christians have a stake in the sustainability and success of core cultural values of the West in general and America in particular. Steven M. Studebaker considers Western and American decline from a theological and, specifically, Pentecostal perspective. The volume proposes and develops a Pentecostal political theology that can be used to address and reframe Christian political identity in the United States. Studebaker asserts that American Christians are currently not properly engaged in preventing America’s decline or halting the shifts in its core values. The problem, he suggests, is that American Christianity not only gives little thought to the state of the nation beyond a handful of moral issues like abortion, but its popular political theologies lead Christians to think of themselves more as aliens than as citizens. This book posits that the proposed Pentecostal political theology would help American Christians view themselves as citizens and better recognize their stake in the renewal of their nation. The foundation of this proposed political theology is a pneumatological narrative of renewal—a biblical narrative of the Spirit that begins with creation, proceeds through Incarnation and Pentecost, and culminates in the new creation and everlasting kingdom of God. This narrative provides the foundation for a political theology that speaks to the issues of Christian political identity and encourages Christian political participation.

A healthy and fruitful political theology is essential for the future of Pentecostal and Charismatic movements worldwide. This book offers crucial reflections on how to develop this area of theology. First, Binyet presents a central debate in political theology: the rift between neo-traditional and liberal Augustinianism. This debate helps situating the emerging voices of Pentecostal and Charismatic scholarship within the field of political theology, revealing the diversity, creativity, and significant potential of Pentecostal and Charismatic approaches to politics. Second, this incisive work provides a constructive proposal for the development of Pentecostal and Charismatic political theology. This analysis is grounded in the underlying conviction that Pentecostal and Charismatic spirituality is inherently political, and that political theology should begin with the ecclesial practices of Pentecostalism. Binyet advocates for a critical yet radical embrace of Pentecostal and Charismatic spirituality, particularly its charismatic and apocalyptic dimensions, as a means to engage fruitfully with the political realm.

"Solomon Kgatle offers an engaging and expansive theologization of the politics in South Africa. He explores political theology through the innovative lens of prophecy, the connection between leading prophets and powerful politicians, and the nexus between the prophetic imagination and political practices. This book provides a rigorous theoretical framework for crafting political theology in the global Pentecostal movement. It is, indeed, a brilliant book on Pentecostal political theology of prophecy." -Nimi Wariboko, Walter G. Muelder,, Boston University, Boston, USA 'Prophecy and Politics in South African Pentecostalism' represents an important new development in Pentecostal studies. Dr Solomon's bold text outlines a postcolonial political theology that harnesses the emotive power of Pentecostalism in order to provide theological resources for a counter hegemonic, anti imperialist and more egalitarian South Africa. This is a must read. -Anthony G. Reddie, University of Oxford. Oxford, UK This book is an interdisciplinary study of the relationship between prophecy and politics in South African Pentecostalism. The role and the power of prophecy in enhancing the presence of politicians in the church square are unpacked through historical examples, as well as case studies of contemporary prophets. Solomon Kgatle argues that the influence of prophecy in politics has the potential to weaken the prophetic voice of the church in general and the Pentecostal movement in particular. He proposes a Pentecostal political theology of prophecy. This theology is developed by taking into cognizance the theoretical and theological frameworks of prophetic imagination and pneumatological imagination. In addition, this theology seeks a balance between prophecy and power and prophecy and sovereignty. Mookgo Solomon Kgatle is a Professor at the Department of Christian Spirituality, Church History and Missiology, University of South Africa, and a National Research Foundation (NRF) Y-Rated researcher (2019-2024) in African Pentecostalism. He has published more than 70 peer-reviewed articles and 6 books in the same field. He is the founding President of the Southern African Society for Pentecostal Studies.

Since the publication of Alistair Kee's Reader in Political Theology, exploration of the subject has continued and its implications have been worked out in different parts of the world. This second collection includes material which has not previously been published and the sections reflect the great variety of contexts in which political theology is now appearing: political theology, Pentecostal conscience, feminist perspectives on theology, the politics of mission, spirituality in politics, Asian theology, ecology and community. The selections are from the works of well-known writers, including J. B. Metz, Rosemary Ruether and J. M. Bonino and also writers less well-known at least in the West, Tissa Balasuriya, Josef Widyatmadja and Carlos Talavera. Alistair Kee has written helpful introductions to each section, and there are biographical notes on the authors and suggestions for further reading in particular areas.

This is the first academic work to focus explicitly on Pentecostal public theology in Europe. Following a growing interest in understanding Pentecostal beliefs and practices with respect to the public sphere, this book shifts the focus of Pentecostal engagement with politics, society, and culture from the Global South and North America to Europe. This work also discusses themes such as Pentecostal public values, identity, nationalism, poverty, democracy, education, race, and political engagement in the context of European Pentecostalism. The book provides an historical overview by bringing together various European voices to discuss the current challenges and possible trajectories for Pentecostal public theology in a constructive fashion. With contributions from leading and emerging European Pentecostal and Charismatic scholars, this book is a must for scholars interested in understanding Pentecostal beliefs and practices in the public sphere in a European context.

In Argentina, Pentecostalism had a breakthrough in the early 1980s, and today more than 10 per cent of the population are Pentecostals. The revival coincided with a socio-political transformation of Argentinean society. After half a century of dictatorships and Perónism, democracy was restored, and structural changes paved the way for an autonomisation of the political, economic, scientific and religious spheres. The “new” form of society that developed resembles what in this study is called a Western model, which to a large degree has been, and still is, spread on a global scale. In this book, Aasmundsen examines the religious sphere and how Pentecostals relate to society at large, and the political and judicial spheres in particular.

In the Days of Caesar is a constructive political theology formulated in sustained dialogue with the Pentecostal and charismatic renewal one of the most vibrant religious movements at the beginning of the twenty-first century. Amos Yong here argues that the many tongues, practices, and gifts of renewal Christianity offer up new resources for thinking about how Christian community can engage and transform the social, political, and economic structures of the world. Yong has three goals here. First he seeks to correct stereotypes of Pentecostalism, both political and theological. Secondly he aims to provoke Pentecostals to reflect theologically from out of the depths of their own Pentecostalism rather than merely to adopt some framework for theological or political self-understanding. Finally Yong shows that a distinctively Pentecostal form of theological reflection is not a parochial activity but has constructive potential to illuminate Christian belief and practice. This book s engagement with political theology from a Pentecostal perspective is the first of its kind.
