[Mythoi (Romanized Form)] And [Genealogiai (Romanized Form)] In The Pastoral Epistles : A Reappraisal, Dale Banke
[Mythoi (Romanized Form)] And [Genealogiai (Romanized Form)] In The Pastoral Epistles : A Reappraisal, Dale Banke
Bachelor of Divinity
This paper is a tentative reappraisal of the nature of the μυ̑θοι and δενεαλοδίαι as these reflect a portion of the heresy combatted in the Pastorals. It is not intended to be an investigation of the entire heresy, much less the complete gamut of exhortation which the Epistles contain. This might appear to pose a false separation, since the wider contexts of the passages that include mention of the μυ̑θοι and δενεαλοδίαι seem to draw in much of the polemic and even some of the advice concerning early church order contained in these letters. Nonetheless, only those aspects of the …

For that reason .the paper will not cover the entire fie1d of Cluniac history and influence. To give a complete study of the topic would involve a study of fields beyond the scope and purpose of the present work. The author would propose other phases that would prove quite fruitful for further work.

The social gospel for which the Century-spoke led it to just such active involvement. It brought its Christian commitment to bear on every important facet of American life. These facets fall into three broad classifications. They are social issues, economic issues and political issues. Attention will be focused on these to determine just how the Christian Century put its creed into practice.

Factors Of Influence In The Development Of Mukyokai, Rodger Grulke
Factors Of Influence In The Development Of Mukyokai, Rodger Grulke
Bachelor of Divinity
It is the intention of this paper to point out those factors of influence in the cultural and historical climate which helped to forge and shape Mukyokai, but also to reveal the importance of a great man who is responsible for its development and continuation. This does not intend to eradicate the importance of individuals and the church in the life of Uchimura Kanzo. However, a movement which maintains fifty thousand members including many prominent individuals in government, education, and theology is the living testimony of a man who deserves recognition as a great theologian and Scholar.

Bachelor of Divinity
It is not the purpose of this study to review and evaluate either the past or the present systematic discussions of this passage, but to offer a critical exegesis of the text. Such an exegesis, of course, will have a direct bearing upon the past and present dogmatic debates. These implications will be pointed out where appropriate.
An Examination Of The Lochhaas Theses As Steps Towards Discovering How One Deals With The Lodge Problem Evangelically, David Fielding
An Examination Of The Lochhaas Theses As Steps Towards Discovering How One Deals With The Lodge Problem Evangelically, David Fielding
Bachelor of Divinity
The Missouri Synod of the Lutheran Church in America (LCMS) has had a long history of opposition against the lodge. This opposition still exists today in the constitution of the synod and by select individuals within the synod who urge those in authority) to "hold the line". The history of opposition to the lodge has been called the "lodge problem" or the "lodge question". Though the question should still be raised, it is also true that some of the lodges have changed their rituals and teachings so that it is no longer accurate to speak in a general way about …
A Presentation Of Research On Decaloque Material By The Form-Critical School Since The Time Of Albrecht Alt Until The Present, Wendell Henkenmeier
A Presentation Of Research On Decaloque Material By The Form-Critical School Since The Time Of Albrecht Alt Until The Present, Wendell Henkenmeier
Bachelor of Divinity
For most people, "Decalogue" means the Ten Commandments and no more thought is given to it. However, this is not such a precise term as might be expected and it needs to be clarified. As will be shown in Chapter V, it is not an easy task to enumerate "ten" units in the so-called Ten Commandments; nor is it impossible to isolate other "decalogues" in other sources than the ones in which the common Ten Commandments are found. Nevertheless, this paper will pivot around the so-called "classic” Decalogue material of Exodus 20 and Deuteronomy 5. And furthermore, the term "Decalogue" …
The Contemporary Charismatic Movement And The Reaction Of The Lutheran Church, David Hauschild
The Contemporary Charismatic Movement And The Reaction Of The Lutheran Church, David Hauschild
Bachelor of Divinity
Often, where there has been this experience among some of the members of a church and not among the others, there develops a misunderstanding and a divisiveness. Such is the subject of this paper. Why is there this divisiveness? Is it really true that Spirit-baptism is a separate experience, apart from baptism with water? Does God intend for people today to have this gift of Spirit-baptism? How does the church react when there is this divisiveness? How does the local congregation react? Are there any differences among the various Lutheran groups in the United States in the manner in which …
