Seminar paper from the year 2015 in the subject Theology - Systematic Theology, University of KwaZulu-Natal (Religion philosophy and classics), course: Masters, language: English, abstract: Scholarship on Pentecostalism and charismatic forms of worship has described Pentecostal and Charismatic churches in African as part of "a rapidly growing form of African Christianity;" that as a movement, "it is fast becoming one of the most significant expressions of Christianity on the continent..."( Anderson, 2001:167). This growth can be identified with many factors. Among these, is the issue of biblical interpretation, which compared to the mainline churches follows, distinct approaches. Despite this growth, the way in which most Pentecostal interpretations extract meanings from the text also points to certain hermeneutical challenges. Some of these challenges have been expressed in Herholdt (1998) model of Biblical hermeneutics. This work attempts to discuss two of Herholdt facets modelof hermeneutics. It points out how hermeneutics has come to be singled out as one of challenges faced by these churches. An attention has been put on how these models may have contributed to the rapid growth of Pentecostalism and how still they can pose a challenge to sustain the currently experienced growth.
