Transformation 1991 (Vol. 8, No. 1, page 0)

How can evangelism contribute to national integrity instead of being viewed as a threat to it? The context of religious pluralism challenges the evangelist to justify the legitimacy of a call to conversion. An integral part of its identity which India promotes and develops is religious plurality.


Faith, Freedom and Democracy
Editorial
Transformation 1990 (Vol. 7, No. 4, page 0)

This issue of Transformation poses a basic question: is there anything biblical at stake in the struggle for democracy? We must be careful. A quick look at church history reminds one of how quickly and easily Christians have often provided moral and theological sanction for current political practice. Nor dare we overlook the fact that theocracy was the norm in the Old Testament, and monarchy prevailed throughout most of Christian history. Only since the eighteenth century (and partly because of the secular Enlightenment) has democracy spread significantly. Donald Shell charts the sources of democracy.

'Social Concern at Lausanne II'
Editorial
Transformation 1990 (Vol. 7, No. 1, page 0)

Lausanne I had seen the issue of social responsibility put firmly on the agenda of evangelicals. The whole of Lausanne I had entered into a covenant which made a commitment to evangelical social responsibility. A number of Lausanne sponsored gatherings and events since then developed the theme, notably the Consultation on the Relation of Evangelism and Social Responsibility in 1982 which saw three relationships between the two: a bridge, a consequence and marriage. The concern for evangelism in large cities of our world which surfaced at the Pattaya Consultation in 1980 became a major expression of wholistic evangelical missiology. Other evangelical networks such as the World ,Evangelical Fellowship Unit on Ethics and Society pursued the theology of development at gatherings such as the Wheaton gathering in 1983 which identified the nature of such mission as transformation of all human relationships.
