“C. Peter Wagner, a professor of church growth at Fuller Theological Seminary, coined the expression ‘Third Wave,’ when he classified the rise of Pentecostalism as the first wave, the rise of the Charismatic Movement as the second wave, and the current Signs and Wonders Movement as the third wave.2 The Third Wave has so greatly influenced the practice of controversial gifts, especially prophecy, that a unique brand of ‘prophecy’ has become accepted practice among many former cessationists.” (Volume 14, Number 2, Page 236)
“Though no one would deny that gifts are supernatural in that they are received from God, to insist that because gifts are termed pneumatikos, they are inherently supernatural, meaning miraculous is reading too much into the word. The meaning of τῶν πνευματικῶν (ton pneumatikon) is simply ‘that which pertains to the Spirit,’ indicating the source or realm of these gifts.” (Volume 14, Number 2, Page 152)
“Noted Pentecostal scholar, Gordon Fee, rightly observed ‘that in general, Pentecostals’ experience has preceded their hermeneutics. In a sense, the Pentecostal tends to exegete his experience.’” (Volume 14, Number 2, Page 144)
“This does not imply that the gift must be supernatural, non-miraculous, or miraculous. It only denotes the source and the realm.” (Volume 14, Number 2, Page 152)
“Previously, Montanus had been a priest in an old Asiatic cult known as Cybele.” (Volume 14, Number 2, Page 243)
