Book Description
About the Book
The Book emphasizes on the issue of liberation in the third world countries. To mitigate oppression and exploitation caused, various missions and third world theologies were implemented, out of which Pentecostal Movement had a significant edge. Its stress was on the work of the Holy Spirit in personal and social dimensions of life. The Pentecostal movement took its roots in the beginning of the 20th century. The Movement helped in lessening the feeling of differences between ethnic groups, men and women, rich and poor due to its Spirit-induced revolutionary attitude.

The Author also sets forth the other side of picture by showing a wrong tendency among the Pentecostal believers to segregate themselves from the pertinent issues of the society in the name of holiness thereby creating, though unintentionally, other-worldly image to the Pentecostals.

At the end, the Author believes that the Pentecostal understanding of holiness needs to accommodate the wider dimension of holiness of God loving relationship, righteousness and justice in the society. It is not separation from the world but separation to God.

This artfully told history offers something for everyone: Historians, Sociologists, Theologists, Eschatologists, Scholars, Christian Laity, Church Clergies, Public & Academic Libraries and Institutions, Students and Researchers, alike.

Preface
One of the most burning issues in the third world is the issue of liberation. Many missions and third world theologies are involved in alleviating the causes of oppression and exploitation. These all efforts are contributing to the liberative causes but these are only drops in the vast ocean. However, many observers point out that Pentecostal movement is making tremendous impact in third world and liberating many from the spiritual as well as social oppression through its emphasis on the work of the Holy Spirit in personal and social dimensions of life.
