Abstract

This chapter examines the complex relationships between fundamentalism and charismatic renewal. In some ways, charismatic renewal was a pushing back against intellectual and social aspects of mid-century fundamentalism and Pentecostalism. However, there were also continuities between these movements and the ecumenical dynamic of charismatic renewal—as ‘Pentecostalism outside of Pentecost’—allowed the shifting of some fundamentalistic traits beyond evangelicalism, for example into Roman Catholicism. By the end of the twentieth century, furthermore, some sections of evangelicalism traditionally associated with the legacy of B. B. Warfield and cessationism had been profoundly impacted by charismatic renewal, and made arguments from Scripture for the continuation of the supernatural gifts in the Church.
