Synopsis

This book portrays the historical development of the Pentecostal church since its beginnings amongst the Black Christians of America who spoke out against the inequalities and divisions of racist America. The author goes on to explain the root cause for the division between black and white churches in general and black and white Pentecostal churches in particular. Whilst he puts the Black Pentecostal Church in the UK in its historical perspective, he also reveals how the division that exists is similiar to the tension which is seen between black and white Christians in main line Christian churches. The author shows that there is an alternative to the way we deal with the race problem and that is seen in the early Pentecostal church
