Mysticism is Christian experience, catholic, orthodox but also pentecostal and evangelical too. The Reformation emphasized the role of the deep knowledge of God. It showed the initiative of God’s love to people and taking this gift through faith, which is necessary to the salvation and the experience of God. Martin Luther talked about the real presence of Christ, it is strongly expressed in the declaration of St. Paul: yet I am alive; yet it is no longer I, but Christ living in me. It calls for a personal experience (a coherence of a objective true and personal experience of a prayer and a mysticism). On the way to the evangelical experience you need to indicate the german pietism or the movement of the puritans who were in the Church of England (Anglican Church) and the service of protestant preachers and theologians, even as Jonathan Edwards, George Whitefi eld, Friedrich Daniel Schleiermacher. However, The direct source of evangelical mysticism you need to look for in the teaching of John Wesley who emphasized the need of personal experience of God and the assurance of salvation obtained by the grace of God. The special signifi cance had the doctrine about so-called second blessing. After the justifi cation, on the way of spiritual development, comes by giving the gift of the Holy Spirit as the experience of love of God, which is the basis of new life. For evangelical and pentecostal spirituality the starting point is the new birth (the deep inner experience of the spousal relationship with Jesus Christ, what often is associated with his feelings and the intimacy. It is often manifested in visions, dreams or prophetic words. In the pentecostal spirituality you can indicate specific manifestations of mysticism: ecstatic conditions; various emotional conditions; the consciousness of the approach to the Revelation; psychosomatic symptoms; the total transformation – the experience of God leads to a new way of life in all dimensions. The practice of spiritual gifts (glossolalia, the word of wisdom, the word of knowledge, prophesying, resting in the Spirit). It is also important that the evangelical mysticism has most of all the community character and it is expressed in the following practices: prayer of praise, a new christian music (Praise&Worship), an inspired singing, a prophetic worship (International House of Prayer in Kansas City).

Evangelical spirituality is a space of practical and spiritual ecumenical dialogue between protestant communities and Churches, and some of Catholic groups, especially those evangelisational and charismatic. Despite obvious doctrinal differences, some common traits can be listed: basing on the Bible, focusing on the Cross and the Christ, convertism (the need of personal conversion) and focus on evangelization. Those communities together, yet differently, testify about the necessity of making a conscious choice of faith as one’s lifestyle and about essentiality of evangelised and evangelising community of the baptised, of new dynamic worship and spontaneously animated prayer. It is also important to identify the dimensions of Churches’ and communities’ cooperation, and of the spiritual gifts exchange. Discovering of new forms of evangelisation and Kerygmatic preaching, experiencing community life by the faithful, exploring of the spirituality of the sacraments (institutions) and ability to accept the charismatic gifts are all worth to be noted among those factors. Spiritual renewal should be an undoubted priority.

Duchowość ewangelikalna stanowi przestrzeń praktycznego i duchowego dialogu ekumenicznego pomiędzy Kościołami i wspólnotami protestanckimi a niektórymi grupami katolickimi, zwłaszcza ewangelizacyjnymi i charyzmatycznymi. Choć pozostają różnice doktrynalne, to jednak można wskazać pewne wspólne wyznaczniki: oparcie o Biblię, krzyżocentryzm i chrystocentryzm, konwertyzm (potrzeba osobistego nawrócenia) oraz ukierunkowanie na ewangelizację. Wspólnoty te wspólnie, choć każda na swój sposób, dają świadectwo konieczności świadomego wyboru wiary jako stylu życia, konieczności zewangelizowanej i ewangelizującej społeczności ochrzczonych, nowego dynamicznego uwielbienia i spontanicznie animowanej modlitwy. Trzeba zauważyć również przestrzenie współdziałania Kościołów i zborów oraz wymiany duchowych darów. Wśród tych elementów warto wskazać poszukiwanie nowych form ewangelizacji i głoszenia kerygmatycznego, przeżywanie wspólnotowości przez wierzących oraz odkrycie duchowości sakramentów (ustanowień) oraz umiejętność przyjmowania darów charyzmatycznych. Niezaprzeczalnym priorytetem winna być odnowa duchowa.
