Ministry: New Life Church of Austin, TX
Full Podcast: The Pentecostal Movement
Date: 4/28/10
Speaker: Rodney Shaw
Topics: William Durham began preaching what he called the “finished work of Calvary”; Said that sanctification (holiness) is actually part of the “new birth” experience–there is no second experience of sanctification; Challenged the entire Holiness movement establishment and theology by saying there is no “saved and sanctified”; Believed that you get saved, and the power of God’s grace in that saving act is power to sanctify you; Durham said that what Jesus purchased for us in salvation is enough, there’s nothing else we can get except the salvation that Jesus brings; Durham collapses sanctification back into the “new birth”, but he still keeps Spirit baptism as a second experience; Went from three works of grace down to two; Still affirmed Acts 2:38 as the fullest sense of salvation–said that a person who was really living for God wouldn’t just be saved, but would go on to receive the baptism of the Holy Ghost; Theological division in the Pentecostal movement–denominations that went with Durham’s theology think of the Holy Ghost as an “added blessing” (not essential for salvation); Practical outcomes of theology about the baptism of the Spirit; The average United Pentecostal Church has around 90% of teens and adults filled with the baptism of the Holy Ghost
