The Need for Pentecostal Soteriology

Being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.  –Romans 5:1 (KJV)

Being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.  –Romans 5:9 (KJV)

That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.   –Romans 8:4 (KJV)

The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God.  –Romans 8:16 (KJV)

Wayne Grudem, Systematic Theology, chs. 27-43. Grudem is a charismatic Calvinist. He holds to the Wesleyan teaching on the witness of the Spirit which is great (Rom. 8:16). But I differ with him about his eternal security view (Heb. 6:4-6; 10:26-31; 1 Tim. 1:19-20).
