AFTERWORD: ON THE FUTURE OF PENTECOSTAL HERMENEUTICS 325

- According to Kevin L. Spawn and Archie T. Wright, eds., Spirit and
Scripture: Examining a Pneumatic Hermeneutic (New York, NY: T&T
Clark International, 2012), the early Pentecostal narrative that I wanted to
revision, which includes restoration, is arrogantly “triumphalistic” and
“needs to be revised to preserve collegiality in both scholarly and ecumeni-
cal dialogue.” Furthermore, they felt that I diminished “the historical, cul-
tural and literary dimensions of the Scripture”(15). I fi nd that such a
mis -reading of my overall monograph, A Pentecostal Hermeneutic for the
Twenty First Century: Spirit, Scripture and Community (London: T&T
Clark International, 2004), was helpful in the promotion of their “believ-
ers criticism” and privileging modern historical critical methodologies for
the interpretation of Scripture.
- This is what I set out to do in the sixth chapter of my book, check this
cite A Pentecostal Hermeneutic for the Twenty-First Century: Spirit, Scripture
and Community, Journal of Pentecostal Theology Supplement 28, London
and New York: T&T Clark International, 2004), which takes into consid-
eration the contrition’s of Spirit, Scripture (and particular methodologies
for interpreting it), and community in the negotiation for meaning.
- For example see Amos Yong’s chapter in this volume. Yong has consis-
tently argued for the importance of Lukan hermeneutic for his theological
work.
- For one example see Stanley M. Burgess, ed., Christian Peoples of the Spirit:
A Documented History of Pentecostal Spirituality from the Early Church to
the Present (New York and London: New York University Press, 2011).
- See his Ancient-Future Faith: Rethinking Evangelicalism for a Postmodern
World (Grand Rapids, Michigan: Baker Books, 1999).

Germen in Ireland 6 (2011) and the blog site “Notes on Metamodernism”

Akker, http://www.metamodernism.com/about-2/. In an interview
titled “Notes on Metamodernism,” Tank Magazine (February 23, 2012)
asked Timotheus Vermeulen to explains metamodern. Vermeulen stated
that “meta signifi es an oscillation, a swinging or swaying with and between
