A Plain Account Of Christian Purity: Berlin Walls, Dean G. Blevins, Marie Gregg

The Asbury Journal

While theological definitions of holiness incorporate purity terminology among several metaphors, the challenges resident in using this language may well impede opportunities of engaging difference and reconciliation. Wesleyans need a “Plain Account” of Christian purity to guide both ecclesial discussions that stress not only strengths, but also limits, in purity thinking. Using an example involving the Church of the Nazarene and Pentecostalism, the writing reveals how purity thinking risks creating “Berlin walls” when engaging differences. The analysis argues that a moral fear of degradation, rather than an acknowledgment of difference, often pushes purity thinkers to oppose certain issues.

“Chieftain, Farewell”: Bishop Matthew Simpson’S Funeral Address To Abraham Lincoln, Samuel J. Rogal

The Asbury Journal

This article reflects back on the historic oration by Methodist Bishop Matthew Simpson at the funeral of Abraham Lincoln in Springfield, Illinois in 1865. Matthew Simpson was one of the most prominent orators of his day and had built up political connections during the Lincoln Presidency. Bishop Simpson in many ways represents the rising respectability of Methodism in the United States as its influence grew and Methodism became more acceptable among society and in political circles. Simpson even represents a form of Christian nationalism which emerges from his funeral address and the way he portrays the “martyred” president.

“Exiles, Aliens, And Strangers”: Reading And Living In The Company Of The Global Church, Rachel L. Coleman

The Asbury Journal

The use of “exile, alien, and stranger” language by New Testament writers in their descriptions of the church provides important insights into the appropriate self-understanding (identity) and the ultimate allegiance of Jesus’ followers. The lived experience of North Atlantic believers can make it hard to hear and internalize this apostolic language for the church; reading in the company of Majority World Christians can open up the possibility of deeper understanding and embodiment of these realities.

“Exiliados, Extranjeros Y Extraños”: Leyendo Y Viviendo En Compañía De La Iglesia Global, Rachel L. Coleman

The Asbury Journal

El uso del lenguaje de “exiliados, extranjeros y extraños” por los escritores del Nuevo Testamento en sus descripciones de la iglesia provee percepciones importantes para el auto-entendimiento (identidad) adecuado y la última lealtad de los seguidores de Jesús. La vivencia de los creyentes en el Atlántico del Norte puede dificultar su recepción e internalización de este lenguaje apostólico para la iglesia; leer en compañía con los cristianos del Mundo Mayoritario puede abrir la posibilidad para un entendimiento y una encarnación más profundos de estas realidades.
