|  |  |  | Holy Language: Encyclopedia II - Accommodation religion - In the Bible and in human languageThroughout the history of the Christian church, it has been generally held that the Bible - both the Old Testament and the New Testament - were divinely inspired. The principle of Accommodation allows for both the ability of the Bible to communicate objective spiritual truths about the nature of God, as well as the ability of the human authors to act as God's means by which this is to be communicated to mankind. While it is true that the authors themselves were limited and prone to mistakes, Accommodation allows for the perfect and truthful God to work in and through his human agents ...

| |  |  |  | Holy Language: Encyclopedia II - Holy Spirit - Holy Spirit or Holy GhostHoly Ghost was the common name for the Holy Spirit in English prior to the 20th century. It is the name used in the Book of Common Prayer and the King James Version of the Bible, and is still used by those who prefer more traditional language, or whose religious vocabulary is largely derived from the King James Version — including many Anglicans, conservative Pentecostal groups, the Church ...

|  |  |  | Holy Language: Encyclopedia II - Rastafari movement - LanguageRastas believe that their original African languages were stolen from them when they were taken into captivity as part of the slave trade, and that English is an imposed colonial language. Their remedy for this situation has been the creation of a modified vocabulary and dialect, reflecting their desire to take forward language and to confront the society they call Babylon.

|  |  |  | Holy Language: Encyclopedia II - Holy Spirit - The powers of the Holy SpiritSome Christians claim the ability to tap into powers from the Holy Spirit, while others claim to be expressly granted powers by the deity. Claims of divine inspiration stemming from the Holy Spirit have been occurring throughout the history of Christianity (see Montanism). Many have claimed that the Holy Spirit has given them the power to:
Cure diseases with prayer
Speak a foreign language that he or she had not learned before
Hear God speaking
Expel evil spirits that are possessing a person
Have a strong, personal connection to God
Speak in a heavenly langu ...

|  |  |  | Holy Language: Encyclopedia II - Accommodation religion - In the Person and work of the Holy SpiritThe work of the Holy Spirit is as a "counsellor" for the Christian person. Biblically, the Spirit lives and works inside each Christian, as well as works inside those who are in the process of coming to faith.
By dwelling and working within the life of the individual, the Trinitarian God is again accommodating himself so that mankind may experience and know him.
When an individual comes to understand the message of the Gospel and the knowledge of God, it comes only because God is choosing to make that knowledge known. But since ...

|  |  |  | Holy Language: Encyclopedia II - Accommodation religion - In the preaching of the GospelThrough the communication of God's Word (logos and rhema) comes the message of the Gospel (euangelion). As an individual listens to Word and Gospel, God as Holy Spirit (pneuma) moves and works in people's hearts and minds. It is through the regenerative work of the Spirit that the listener is able to then respond to this message in repentance and faith. Such a concept is sometimes called monergism.
Gospel preaching, therefore, is one of the most important facets of the principle of accommodation, for ...

|  |  |  | Holy Language: Encyclopedia II - Rastafari movement - Rastafari TodayBy the end of the 20th century, women had become more important in the functioning of the Rastafari movement. In the early years, menstruating women were often subordinated to their husbands and excluded from religious and social ceremonies. To a large degree, women feel more freedom to express themselves now, thus they enjoy much greater freedom of self-expression, and contribute greatly to the religion.
Rastafari is not a highly organized religion. In fact, some Rastas say that it is not a "religion" at all, but a "way of Life". Mos ...

|  |  |  | Holy Language: Encyclopedia II - Rastafari movement - PoliticsRastafari culture does not encourage mainstream political involvement. In fact, in the early stages of the movement most Rastas did not vote, out of principle. Ras Sam Brown formed the Suffering People's Party for the elections of 1961. Although he received fewer than 100 votes, simply standing for election was a powerful act.
In the election campaign of 1972, People's National Party leader, Michael Manley used a prop, a walking stick given to him by Haile Selassie, which was called the "Rod of Correct ...

|  |  |  | Holy Language: Encyclopedia II - Rastafari movement - CeremoniesThere are two types of Rasta religious ceremonies. A reasoning is a simple event where the Rastas gather; smoke "ganja" (marijuana); and discuss ethical, social and religious issues. The person honored by being allowed to light the herb says a short prayer before doing so, and it is always passed in a clockwise fashion. A binghi or grounation is a holiday; the word binghi is believed to refer originally to an ancient, and now extinct, order of militant blacks in eastern Africa that vowed to end oppression. Binghis are marked by much dancing, singing, feasting and the ...

|  |  |  | Holy Language: Encyclopedia II - Rastafari movement - DoctrinesRastafari developed amongst very poor people, who felt society had nothing to offer them except more suffering. Rastas see themselves as conforming to a vision of how Africans should live, reclaiming what they see as a culture stolen from them when they were brought on slave ships to Jamaica, birthplace of the movement.
The doctrines of Rastafari depart radically from the norms of the modern western mind, something encouraged deliberately by the Rastas themselves. Unlike many modern religious and Christian groups that tend to stress c ...

Rastafari movement - Dreadlocks.
The wearing of dreadlocks is very closely associated with the movement, though not universal among (or exclusive to) its adherents. Rastas believe dreadlocks to be supported by Leviticus 21:5 ("They shall not make baldness upon their head, neither shall they shave off the corner of their beard, nor make any cuttings in the flesh.") and the Nazarite vow in Numbers 6.5-6. Part of the reason the hairstyle was adopted was to contrast the kinky long hair of ...

|  |  |  | Holy Language: Encyclopedia II - Rastafari movement - MusicMusic has long played an integral role in Rastafari, and the connection between the movement and various kinds of music has become well known, due to the international fame of musicians like Bob Marley and Peter Tosh.
Nyabinghi music is the most integral form of Rastafarian music. It is played at worship ceremonies called grounations, that include drumming, chanting and dancing, along with prayer and smoking of ritual ganja. The name Nyabinghi comes from an East African movement from the 1850s to the 1950s that was led b ...

Rastafari movement - Marcus Garvey.
Rastas see Marcus Garvey as a prophet, even a second John the Baptist according to some. One of the most famous prophecies attributed to him involving the coronation of Haile Selassie I was the 1927 pronouncement "Look to Africa, for there a king shall be crowned," though an associate of Garvey's, James Morris Webb, had made very similar public statements as early as 1921.[1][2] Marcus Garvey promoted Pan-Africanism, the belief that all black people of the world should join in ...
