Thesis, Trinity International University, 2015. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=1587428.
Full textThis thesis uses the diaries of Catherine Robertson McCartney (1838-1922) to define the distinctive characteristics of the Reformed Presbyterian Church in Scotland and America between 1856 and 1881. It gives a window into the history of the denomination during the mid-nineteenth century, using cultural, ethnographic, institutional, and gender analyses. The thesis explores the logocentric heritage of the tradition and shows how the denomination as a whole, and Catherine particularly, continued to define their identity in the Victorian and Evangelical milieu of the period.
Reformed Presbyterian institutional identity had begun to shift away from political dissent due partly to a continued interaction with the broader Evangelical tradition of the time. As a result, the historic logocentric forms of worship, developed largely during the Scottish Reformation, became key to Reformed Presbyterian identity. This logocentricsm and shared commitment with other Evangelicals to revivals, Scripture, evangelism, atonement, and conversion provided Catherine access into the broader religious culture of her time. Yet, the separateness that the dissenters had historically practiced, displayed in the testimonies, meant Catherine and other Reformed Presbyterians were indeed within the category of Evangelicalism, but could never be wholly a part of, nor formally identify as Evangelicals.

"The new Westminster theology and South African evangelicalism : a critical evaluation of John Frame's methodology and epistemology with a view towards the development of a contextual evangelical theology." Master's thesis, University of Cape Town, 1992. http://hdl.handle.net/11427/14960.
Full textThis dissertation attempts to answer the question "Do the methodological and epistemological proposals of John M. Frame have anything to contribute to the construction of a contextual evangelical theology in South Africa - a theology which is both faithful to its evangelical roots and yet radically engaged with the contemporary context?" This question is dealt with in four stages. Firstly, Frame's theology is expounded against the background of its context in America. Secondly, four aspects of Frame's theology are critically evaluated. They are perspectivalism, theology as application, hermeneutics, and the relationship between theology and praxis. This evaluation has three dimensions. It investigates the relationship between Frame's theology and the historic Reformed tradition. It examines the use that is made of Frame's theology by other theologians related to the Westminster Seminaries, in particular, the work of Harvie M. Conn and Vern S. Poythress. Finally, the evaluation seeks to examine the usefulness of Frame's theology in the South African context. This analysis results in the identification of certain weaknesses in Frame's methodological proposals. The conclusion of this dissertation is that Frame's theology provides certain methodological tools which can be employed in the construction of a contextual South African theology which is both radically engaged with its context, and faithful to the core of the evangelical tradition. For this to be possible it is proposed that certain modifications need to be made to overcome the weaknesses of Frame's theology. These modifications are the following: the integration of a strongly christological approach to Frame's concept of lordship with particular reference to a theology of the cross; the affirmation that God is, in a particular way, the God of the poor and oppressed; an understanding of the accommodated and context-relatedness of biblical revelation, and the incorporation of perspectives from the sociology of knowledge.

Robert D. Linder
George Müller of Bristol (1805-1898) was widely celebrated in the nineteenth century as the founder of the Ashley Down Orphan Homes in Bristol, England. He was a German immigrant to Great Britain who was at the vanguard of evangelical philanthropic care of children. The object of his charitable work, orphans, influenced the establishment of Christian orphanages in Great Britain, North America, Asia, Africa, Latin America, and Europe. However, what brought Müller widespread public acclaim was his assertion that he supported his orphan homes solely by relying on faith and prayer. According to Müller, he prayed to God for the material needs of the orphans and he believed, in faith, that those needs were supplied by God, without resort to direct solicitation, through donations given to him. He employed his method as a means to strengthen the faith of his fellow Christians and published an ongoing chronicle of his answered prayers that served as evidence. Müller’s method of financial support brought him to the forefront of public debate in the nineteenth century about the efficacy of prayer and the supernatural claims of Christianity. His use of prayer to provide for the orphans made his name a “household word the world round.” This dissertation is a study of Müller’s influence on evangelicals that analyzes Müller’s enduring legacy as a hero of the faith among evangelicals around the world. For evangelicals Müller was an exemplary Christian—a Protestant saint—who embodied a simple but pure form of biblical piety. To explore his influence from the nineteenth century through the twentieth century, this study, as a social biography, investigates how evangelicals remember individuals and how that memory, in this case Müller, influenced the practice of prayer in evangelical piety. The dissertation affirms a link between evangelicals and eighteenth-century German Pietism, while also showing that evangelicals used publications to celebrate and to informally canonize individuals esteemed for their piety. The dissertation, ultimately, is concerned with how evangelicals identified heroes of the faith and why these heroes were and are widely used as models for edification and for emulation in everyday life.

The present research deals with the problematic of Latin American evangelical identity built from its historical issues in the second half of the 20th century. First, it shows the difficulties of the theme such as the semantic issue related to the term evangelical and the transdenominationality concerning the charismatic ways of living the Christian faith. It also briefly overviews the academic studies about protestantism and evangelicalism in which it fits. Then, it presents ways of dealing with the specific problematic of this research. In a second moment, this research faces the question regarding the political and religious field where Latin American evangelicalism develops its identity, presenting its major formative characters: Catholicism, ecumenism and fundamentalism. Last, it makes a discursive analysis of the final documents of the most important Latin American evangelical congresses, conferences, and the Lausanne Congress (1974). So Evangelicalism is seen like a historical product in close connection with the political, social and religious context of the studied decades. It is both fruit of fundamentalism, from which it develops its antiecumenism, as of the ecumenism, from which it inherits questions about the missiological praxis.
A presente pesquisa lida com a problem?tica da forma??o da identidade evangelical latino-americana a partir de seus contingentes hist?ricos na segunda metade do s?culo XX. Primeiro, exp?e as dificuldades relativas ao tema, tais como o problema sem?ntico ligado ? palavra evang?lico e a transdenominacionalidade ligada ?s formas carism?ticas de viv?ncia da f? crist?. Tamb?m faz um breve retrospecto do estudo acad?mico do protestantismo e do evangelicalismo no qual esta se insere. Ent?o apresenta caminhos para se tratar da problem?tica espec?fica desta pesquisa. Num segundo momento, trabalha com a quest?o do campo pol?tico-religioso no qual o evangelicalismo latino-americano desenvolve sua identidade, apresentando seus principais agentes informativos: o catolicismo, ecumenismo e fundamentalismo. Por fim, faz uma an?lise discursiva dos documentos finais dos principais congressos e confer?ncias evang?licas latino-americanas e do Congresso de Lausanne (1974). Assim, o Evangelicalismo ? visto como um produto hist?rico em ?ntima rela??o com o contexto pol?tico, social e religioso das d?cadas estudadas. ? fruto tanto fundamentalismo de onde desenvolve seu anti-ecumenismo, quando do ecumenismo do qual herda alguns questionamentos quanto ? pr?tica missiol?gica.
