by Sandy Simpson This DVD is a message based on this article. Should biblical Christian churches be Christ-centered (Christocentric)? Should the doctrines of the Father (Patriology) and the Holy Spirit (Pnematology) also be equally emphasized? Can a church be Patriocentric or Pnemacentric and be biblical? The answer to these questions are quite simple from a biblical perspective. There have been charges leveled at some movements such as the Pietist Movement in Germany and other movements that they place too much emphasis on Christ to the exclusion of the Father and the Holy Spirit. This may be true to a certain degree. The doctrines of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit must be taught with equal emphasis so that Christians will know what they believe. But
should a church be Patriocentric or Pnemacentric? No. For
instance, there are far too many churches today, having been influenced
by hyper-Pentecostalism and the Latter Rain, that are
Pnemacentric. They spend most of their time focusing on the Holy
Spirit to the exclusion of preaching the Gospel while, in fact, they
don't even have a biblical doctrine of the Holy Spirit. I believe
that because classic Evangelicals, to a certain degree, dropped the
ball in defining the Person and role of the Holy Spirit it gave an
opening to Third Wavers to step in with their erroneous ideas of
Pnematology.
