Produktbeschreibung

UNIQUE. This is the only known construct to demonstrate the true gift of languages (together with interpretation as a composite gift), showing its source, purpose and operation.This unique construct demonstrates all the biblical criteria, in particular: -the source in God (Trinitarian) as for ALL gifts, -the ministry to the church (as for ALL the gifts), -its relevance today in spite of arguments to the contrary, -the fact that it has never been abrogated at any time, -its method of operation that can be independently validated and thereby protect its operation from abuse, -its purpose as an unambiguous sign of God's judgement and displeasure with unpersuaded believers in the church-hence a gift for the church.

Autorenporträt

Rev Dr David A Swincer is an ordained Baptist Minister, having served almost 40 years in pastoral ministry, including 13 years as a seminary professor. Raised on a sheep farm in South Australia, David developed a strong sense of the practicalities of life, and this experience has been invaluable in his pastoral and lecturing experience. He originally trained as a secondary school teacher, specializing in mathematics and science. He acquired a B.A. degree and Secondary Teaching Diploma. He taught for 4 years full-time. The unmistakable call to Pastoral Ministry led to training in the New South Wales Baptist Theological Seminary, where he did post-graduate study, gaining a B.D. and Dip. R.E. After 8 years of Pastoral Ministry, he moved to the Seminary Position, specializing in New Testament - especially Greek exegesis. Circumstances meant that he also lectured widely in other areas, undertaking some lecturing in OT exegesis, Modern Church History, overview of theology, and a special emphasis in pastoral subjects (including writing several papers on associated topics, notably a Pre-marriage Counseling Course; Marriage Enrichment; Conflict resolution). He pursued strong personal interest in the nature and practice of worship. A pastor at heart, Dr Swincer loved to see the practical side of careful exegesis and theological education. During this time he undertook M.A. and Doctoral studies. His whole ministry has been marked by a willingness to think laterally, and to challenge common presuppositions, in the search for the truth. His books strongly challenge traditional positions that seem to be held unthinkingly. That will be a challenge to the reader! Dr Swincer served in pastoral ministry for nine years before moving into seminary education for 13 years. During the latter part of that time he simultaneously pastored a church before returning to the full-time pastoral ministry - an extra 18 years. In addition, there have been several interim pastorates. Coupled with research and study, he had the opportunity to travel and to undertake several preaching/teaching/evangelistic tours. All these opportunities have provided a rich and diverse background of experience that equips him for the balance of theological and practical writing which has always been simmering in the background.
