  5. Protestant culture in the United States was different than European: • All voluntary - no state support • no denomination favored by the state • lay leadership was vital • 1800s = 7% claimed membership • 1910 = 44% claimed membership!

  6. Lay People • **Giving laypeople a chance and support (training, practice, positive feedback) to be leaders strengthened the church and made it grow! http://www.google.com/imgres?client=firefox-a&hs=F18&sa=X&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&channel=fflb&sout=0&tbm=isch&tbnid=hh_0CwtKCa9x8M:&imgrefurl=http://www.ssa.gov/history/acoffee.html&docid=t5Yc1EFFKBzDGM&imgurl=http://www.ssa.gov/history/pics/acoffee.jpg&w=591&h=479&ei=eNFIUu-IJMSuyQGAq4GgBw&zoom=1&ved=1t:3588,r:0,s:0,i:90&iact=rc&page=1&tbnh=176&tbnw=213&start=0&ndsp=12&tx=116&ty=88&biw=1040&bih=901 http://www.google.com/imgres?client=firefox-a&hs=F18&sa=X&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&channel=fflb&sout=0&tbm=isch&tbnid=V3w0HuomJuKupM:&imgrefurl=http://brightnepenthe.blogspot.com/2011/09/thinking-about-poverty-part-2.html&docid=094mWOrRLXIzJM&imgurl=http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-saQM-EHdX00/TnoBpjh-k2I/AAAAAAAAAWg/kdJodpe7TC8/s640/Soup_Kitchens_2.jpg&w=880&h=591&ei=eNFIUu-IJMSuyQGAq4GgBw&zoom=1&ved=1t:3588,r:15,s:0,i:135&iact=rc&page=2&tbnh=175&tbnw=253&start=12&ndsp=20&tx=114&ty=100&biw=1040&bih=901 http://www.google.com/imgres?client=firefox-a&hs=F18&sa=X&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&channel=fflb&sout=0&tbm=isch&tbnid=DcGQuWp9ke9n6M:&imgrefurl=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soup_kitchen&docid=Q5DG6pSIzaHdUM&imgurl=http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/3f/MontrealSoupKitchen1931.jpg&w=612&h=480&ei=eNFIUu-IJMSuyQGAq4GgBw&zoom=1&ved=1t:3588,r:14,s:0,i:132&iact=rc&page=2&tbnh=175&tbnw=216&start=12&ndsp=20&tx=92&ty=86&biw=1040&bih=901

  7. Methodist and Baptist revivals were primarily responsible for this change • Methodist theology was prepared for evangelism on a large scale, and missions work • Baptists required a modified Calvinism in order to justify large sacrifices needed for missions work • "New Divinity" said that humans had the ability to respond to God's grace. Total depravity did not exclude ability to respond to grace. • Predestination was questioned early on • Baptists believed: • Final perseverance of the saints • rejected infant baptism • not strict on "limited atonement" and offered an invitation to all to become believers

  8. Revivals • 200 years - 1700's through late 1800's • New England had the most revivals • 1797-1801 was the strongest revivals in New England with long-lasting effects • Evangelists became champions for social causes too • temperance (no alcohol) • abolitionism (no slavery) • jail systems (punish vs. rehabilitate)

  9. American groups were formed for cooperation in evangelizing • Missions Societies • "Plan of Union" between Presbyterians and Congregationalists • emphasized education and right doctrine • Worked until the pro-slavery anti-revival group gained control and broke up for 100 years • American Bible Society from several different Bible Societies • American Tract Society • Sunday School Union • American Education Society (schools) • Temperance Society • Antislavery Society • Methodists were told to get rid of all slaves within one year of becoming Methodists in America. This was weakened, but still remained a suggestion. "Christmas Conference"

  10. Methodists grew in the new United States • Individual responsibility • Equality before God • Salvation for all • This appealed to frontier people • Methodists used Camp Meetings very effectively • Many testified to entire sanctification • Many wanted their home churches to be as exciting as camp meetings • Women's rights • 1853 Antoinette Brown Blackwell became the first woman ordained in modern history. Wesleyan Methodist minister. • Galatians 3:28 - how do you read that? • Adam Clarke wrote about this in his commentary which many people read. http://www.google.com/imgres?client=firefox-a&hs=9wn&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&channel=fflb&sout=0&tbs=isz:m&tbm=isch&tbnid=76KDHnpngIqXUM:&imgrefurl=http://anotherking.wordpress.com/2011/08/02/to-seek-revival/&docid=ULDjRdowVV49mM&imgurl=http://anotherking.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/revival-crowd1.jpg&w=633&h=395&ei=d8tIUtSwHuGCyAHJpIHYBQ&zoom=1&ved=1t:3588,r:25,s:0,i:166&iact=rc&page=2&tbnh=172&tbnw=267&start=14&ndsp=21&tx=118&ty=95&biw=1040&bih=901

  11. Schism • First major schism was when some Methodists refused to have black Methodists in their annual conferences • Three splits happened because of this! • Bigotry does not pay! Christ came for everyone, and our theology judges us when we go against it! • 100 years later the "Wesleyan Methodists" left the conference because of slavery. They said "abolish slavery at once."

  12. Cities • City Methodists declined in their strong insistence on entire sanctification. When revivalism came, many responded. • City ministry was at noon • Many lay people were involved in leadership • Inter-denominationalism was encouraged

  13. Revivals led to concerns about social injustices • social morality • observing the Sabbath • temperance • women's rights • Preaching was practical, not formal • They spoke to real issues in people's lives combined with how Christ would look at that. • Ministry and education to the poor • Urban (city) ministries • Food kitchens • free schooling • rescue homes (unmarried mothers) • Prison ministries • Holiness people believed that society could be reformed - and they did it!

  14. Free Methodists (1860) break away • plain dress • equality of clergy and laity • no musical instruments

  15. American Holiness Movement • Emphasized entire sanctification NOW • less process, more crisis • Danger: "Once sanctified always sanctified" leads to a denial of sin in those who have experienced sanctification • De-emphasized tradition of the church • Used words like "Pentecost" and "Baptism with the Holy Spirit" • Emphasized getting back to the early church where entire sanctification was obviously preached and felt • More people boldly proclaimed entire sanctification. Wesley did not. Phoebe Palmer believed this testimony strengthened God's grace in your life. • More emotional in worship style • A shift towards "tabula rossa" belief - led to decreased emphasis on the sinfulness of people - and their need of God

  17. Holiness decline in the Methodist church • Leaders in the US became concerned that Holiness preaching caused breaks among the congregation. Those who were "on fire" wanted those who were not to get the fire. • Holiness leaders did not know whether to stay in their denominations or start new ones. They met and agreed to try to stay inside their denominations. • Frustration continued to build as the concern for "order" in the Methodist church led to more Holiness preachers being dismissed. http://www.google.com/imgres?client=firefox-a&hs=9wn&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&channel=fflb&sout=0&tbs=isz:m&tbm=isch&tbnid=HDlnXC7hQVoV3M:&imgrefurl=http://www.nathanfinn.com/2012/07/18/five-ways-to-define-revival/&docid=lESaOz9fb4NfoM&imgurl=http://www.bbc.co.uk/humber/content/images/2006/05/25/wesley_preach_470x352.jpg&w=470&h=352&ei=d8tIUtSwHuGCyAHJpIHYBQ&zoom=1&ved=1t:3588,r:17,s:0,i:133&iact=rc&page=2&tbnh=188&tbnw=236&start=14&ndsp=21&tx=80&ty=87&biw=1040&bih=901

  18. Methodist leadership made decisions to: • Accept bishops that were not entirely sanctified • Abandon class and band meetings • Doubt the second experience of grace (sanctification) • Decrease the focused preaching on holiness - the main distinction of Methodism • Groups like the Church of the Nazarene formed combining different Holiness denominations into a traditional Methodist structure. • 1890's • Phineas F Bresee

  19. Revivalism • revivalism: Emphasis on holiness, emotionalism, socially appropriate preaching http://www.google.com/imgres?start=725&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&channel=fflb&sout=0&tbs=isz:m&tbm=isch&tbnid=wyfTBsgIC4PSqM:&imgrefurl=http://www.enotes.com/evangelicals-reference/evangelicals&docid=KPadKN-xR1IsPM&imgurl=http://static.enotes.com/images/american-history/ahlt_0001_0001_0_img0082.jpg&w=477&h=324&ei=0s9IUsLDEMeEyAGX7oD4Aw&zoom=1&ved=1t:3588,r:35,s:700,i:109&iact=rc&page=35&tbnh=185&tbnw=257&ndsp=23&tx=103&ty=73&biw=1040&bih=901 http://www.google.com/imgres?start=117&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&channel=fflb&sout=0&tbs=isz:m&tbm=isch&tbnid=JJ_ShrVHkmTQOM:&imgrefurl=http://missionpeakbaptist.blogspot.com/2012/09/from-revival-to-revivalism.html&docid=m0ipn7Y4e9n-NM&imgurl=http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Sm1dL3ljCjs/UGQAGw6zBNI/AAAAAAAAAYA/FfOqSatki98/s400/Slide1.JPG&w=400&h=300&ei=J85IUtDyM-LXyAGRuoGgAg&zoom=1&ved=1t:3588,r:32,s:100,i:100&iact=rc&page=7&tbnh=194&tbnw=257&ndsp=23&tx=115&ty=95&biw=1040&bih=901

  20. Evangelicalism • evangelicalism: Belief that we must go and preach the Good News to all people - despite opposition. Also associated with a belief that the early church was the right way to do church. http://www.google.com/imgres?start=638&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&channel=fflb&sout=0&tbs=isz:m&tbm=isch&tbnid=xVGXVn3V2X33rM:&imgrefurl=http://www.shmoop.com/abolition/timeline.html&docid=Pyx4VP0puSsCeM&imgurl=http://www.assumption.edu/users/McClymer/his260/Eastham_campmeeting.jpg&w=599&h=420&ei=rs9IUoKBHvDYyQH8tYGABQ&zoom=1&ved=1t:3588,r:43,s:600,i:133&iact=rc&page=31&tbnh=173&tbnw=237&ndsp=20&tx=79&ty=76&biw=1040&bih=901 http://www.google.com/imgres?start=336&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&channel=fflb&sout=0&tbs=isz:m&tbm=isch&tbnid=eyOzefi4d8FGIM:&imgrefurl=http://www.gospeltent.us/&docid=YMo5oT-MysytKM&imgurl=http://www.gospeltent.us/9tent1.jpg&w=750&h=420&ei=zM5IUtmKN5DlygHMoICAAQ&zoom=1&ved=1t:3588,r:55,s:300,i:169&iact=rc&page=17&tbnh=168&tbnw=300&ndsp=21&tx=160&ty=96&biw=1040&bih=901

  21. Denominationalism • denominationalism: belief that if you have a strong disagreement, you can just start your own denomination that more closely reflects the early church. Denominationalism was DEemphasized during revival movements (more unity)

  22. Social Reform • social reform: Belief that society can change through the work of God through us. Never give up! http://www.google.com/imgres?start=552&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&channel=fflb&sout=0&tbs=isz:m&tbm=isch&tbnid=koq2Kn1sZKI8bM:&imgrefurl=http://www.jonwatts.com/2012/are-you-ready-for-the-quaker-revival/&docid=jyFgQINDy96m_M&imgurl=http://alifetimeofwisdom.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/I-always-wondered-why-somebody-didnt-do-something-about-that-then-I-realized-I-am-somebody.jpg&w=600&h=546&ei=es9IUpqUNojCyAGhqoHgAg&zoom=1&ved=1t:3588,r:62,s:500,i:190&iact=rc&page=27&tbnh=205&tbnw=205&ndsp=22&tx=118&ty=114&biw=1040&bih=901

  23. Discuss some revival techniques and why they were effective in this setting • City revivals used convenient times (noon / lunch time) to be effective • Camp Meetings when people could come for two weeks to hear powerful speakers • Emotionalism where speakers did not mind using emotional appeals to people to get the to convert • Emphasis upon crisis vs. process - the change needs to happen right now! • Emphasis on free will - you can choose where you go after this earthly life! • Inter-denominationalism - unity at the expense of doctrinal teaching. • Basic Bible preaching with Sovereignty of God emphasized. • Preaching that focused on problems of the day and practical responses to it. • Pushing people towards social action as an external reflection of the inward change led to movements to fight injustice.

  24. Relate revivalism to contemporary trends in the church • What do you think? • What will you do to make sure your work does not disappear? (Assuming you are doing God's work)

  25. Term Paper (3 Pages A4, 32 lines) Thesis: I will do these four things as my method of helping the work of God I am doing to continue even after I leave or pass away. • Introduction (Story of your current situation / ministry) • Paragraph 1-4 • What will you do? • Why are you doing that? • Is there a historical precedent for that? (Proof that this works in the past?) • Conclusion - story in the future of how your ministry affected your local area and the Solomon Islands in 50 years.
