| dc.description.abstract | A series of three lectures delivered in March 1996, at the Haigazian University, on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the foundation of the Armenian Evangelical Church. The article discusses at length and analyzes minutely the process and the long journey the Evangelical Movement took since its conception in 1846. The article presents not only the various phases of the movement but also endeavours to portray both the positive and negative ways taken both by the Fathers of the Armenian Apostolic Church and the Founding Fathers of the Armenian Evangelical Church (the latter were known as the Barepashtakans) and concludes that if the early Church Fathers had shown some understanding, most probably renovation would be produced in the Armenian Church, an evangelical spirit would prevail, a new evangelism would be achieved in the Armenian people as a whole, no liberty would be left to the western missionaries to interfere in the Armenian church and religious affairs, and no separation would be produced in the bosom of the Armenian Mother Church. Yet inspite of all these, taking the present conditions into account, especially in the west, which endanger the Armenian national identity, the loss the Armenians are facing day in and day out, the religious and cultural pounding imperilling even the core of both the Armenian Apostolic Church and the different Armenian Evangelical churches, though the latter is somewhat loosely bound together through their respective Unions, the Armenian entity as such, Apostolic or Evangelical, is facing threats from all sides, and hence, it is time now to come together with love and ecumenical spirit and understanding, minimize the differences which have existed and lasted so long, reach a sincere concord based on renovation, reform and evangelization of the church and strike an irrefutable agreement to once more establish the idea of one people, one nation and one church. This reunion of the separated factions for so many decades is not an impossibility to overcome given that the two sides, the Armenian Apostolic and the Armenian Evangelical churches, are now mature enough and serious to reckon the facts and the reality, and are aware of the needs of the Armenian Church as a whole. The endeavour towards the reunification of the factions fallen apart of the Armenian national and religious entity is a must now and should imperatively continue to bring forth the desired end. | |
