Pentecostal Hermeneutics
This course offers a comprehensive study of biblical interpretation (hermeneutics) from a Pentecostal-charismatic perspective, integrating sound exegetical methods with a dynamic understanding of the Holy Spirit's ongoing work in the life of the believer and the community of faith. Students will explore the history of biblical interpretation, master the tools of standard evangelical hermeneutics (historical-cultural context, literary genres, grammatical analysis), and investigate how Pentecostal distinctives—such as the role of experience, the emphasis on narrative literature (e.g., the book of Acts), and the expectation of supernatural engagement—shape the interpretive process. The ultimate goal is to equip students with the skills to interpret the Bible accurately and to apply its message effectively in various ministry settings, including preaching, teaching, counseling, and personal spiritual formation, resulting in a life transformed by God's wisdom and power.
