Christ Frees And Unites: The Third Lutheran World Federation Assembly, Hanns Lilje
Christ Frees And Unites: The Third Lutheran World Federation Assembly, Hanns Lilje
Concordia Theological Monthly
The third assembly of the Lutheran World Federation, held in Minneapolis, August 15-25, 1957, sends Christian greetings to all Lutheran congregations in the world. Our hearts are filled with gratitude and joy. We are grateful to God for the rich blessings which He granted us throughout these days. It is with joy and affection that we think of the fellowship with so many brethren and sisters from all over the world.
The Case For Four Adverbs: Reflections On Chalcedon, Martin H. Scharlemann
The Case For Four Adverbs: Reflections On Chalcedon, Martin H. Scharlemann
Concordia Theological Monthly
For many years it has been fashionable to deprecate any and all attempts, whether past or present, at formulating Biblical truth. Theologians have belittled such efforts by pleading that propositional theology fails to capture and convey the recitatif of the kerygma; and philosophers of religion have contended that any undertaking which proposes to systematize revelation was and is foredoomed to failure because of the limitations and instability of human speech and language. As a consequence the prevailing mood in large areas of Christendom is one of pessimism toward all endeavors to work at the unity we seek by drawing up …
Religion As The Integrating Principle In Education, Eugene F. Klug
Religion As The Integrating Principle In Education, Eugene F. Klug
Concordia Theological Monthly
D’ye think," asked Mr. Hennessey, "the college has much to do with the progress of the world?" - "D'ye think," parried Mr. Dooley, "it's the mill that makes the water run?" The stream of life in this old world goes steadily on, whether we have colleges or not. But the fact is, in spite of Mr. Dooley's skeptical cynicism, that the world would hardly be the same without them. These centers of human learning have played a major role in harnessing and developing the raw material of this world man, his mind, and his physical environment. Today especially these academic …
Kings And Priests, Richard R. Caemmerer
Kings And Priests, Richard R. Caemmerer
Concordia Theological Monthly
This review will spend little time on the excitement that greeted the first two volumes of the new translation. The reader will be impressed with the clean job of editing by Jaroslav Pelikan and the remarkably high and uniform excellence of the translations by six contributors. The introduction adequately notes the settings of the seven psalm expositions and correlates the locations in the Weimar and St. Louis editions of Luther's works. Footnotes - occasional but not too many - explain renderings of German idioms, suggest sources of Luther's quotations or indicate parallels, many of them in the two preceding volumes …

The Nature Of The Unity We Seek A Missouri Synod Lutheran View, Martin H. Franzmann
The Nature Of The Unity We Seek A Missouri Synod Lutheran View, Martin H. Franzmann
Concordia Theological Monthly
"The nature of the unity we seek" has the obviousness of a platitude. Like most platitudes, it is more easily stated (by those who hold it) and more readily caricatured (by those who reject it) than it is appreciated, appropriated, and lived. It is worth while, therefore, to spell out this platitude, in order that both we and those with whom we seek unity may be made aware of its basic simplicity and of its practical complexity and difficulty.

Some Aspects Of The Asian Situation And Their Significance For Training For Service To The Church, R. Pearce Beaver
Some Aspects Of The Asian Situation And Their Significance For Training For Service To The Church, R. Pearce Beaver
Concordia Theological Monthly
The revival of the ancient religions of Asia is one of the most important factors in the international situation which has developed since World War II. It may be regarded as part of a current worldwide revival of religion, or, on the other hand, there may be some ground to think that the Asian development stimulated a world movement. Religion is now more important as a factor in national and international affairs than has been the case for many centuries. The Asian churchmen, in the book Christianity and the Asian Revolution, state: "Nationalism imparts a new interpretation to religion. Instead …
Imitating The Wisdom Of The Almighty: Ziegenbalg's Program Of Evangelism, Hans W. Gensichen
Imitating The Wisdom Of The Almighty: Ziegenbalg's Program Of Evangelism, Hans W. Gensichen
Concordia Theological Monthly
By a happy coincidence the quarter-millennium jubilee year of the Tranquebar Mission again brought to light a long forgotten but most valuable source on that great pioneer enterprise of Protestant world missions, permitting a unique inside look into the evangelistic principles and techniques employed by Barrholomaeus Ziegenbalg and his co-workers and thus revealing the very heart and soul of their work. It is a small volume of 352 pages, and its full title may be of interest: "Thirty-Four Conferences Between the Danish Missionaries and the Malabarian Bramans (or Heathen Priests) in the East Indies, Concerning the Truth of the Christian …

Truth In The Inward Parts: A Sermon For Three Speakers On Justification By Faith, Richard Luecke
Truth In The Inward Parts: A Sermon For Three Speakers On Justification By Faith, Richard Luecke
Concordia Theological Monthly
The sermon seeks to address the Gospel, understood as "justification by faith through grace," to a particular yet current and popular campus attitude or pose. It speaks to the concern for "truthfulness," or for personal integrity and freedom, where all traditional statements are in question, and shows the "point of contact" - and the "point of conflict"! - between Christ and that. It does not attempt to treat the other side of the coin, namely, the concern for the '"truth of statement" in the Scriptures and then in the Confession and in theology - also essential emphases of the Reformation.

Visitation Evangelism In American Churches (Concluded), A. Karl Boehmke
Visitation Evangelism In American Churches (Concluded), A. Karl Boehmke
Concordia Theological Monthly
In keeping with the proposition that it is impossible for any one evangelism method to apply perfectly to any and all circumstances, consideration is now given to points of strength and weakness in the basic visitation procedure. What was this evangelism technique capable of contributing to the work of the church and the ongoing program of the kingdom of Christ? What may have been expected of the plan but should not have been required?
A Critique Of Aulen's Christus Victor, George O. Evenson
A Critique Of Aulen's Christus Victor, George O. Evenson
Concordia Theological Monthly
One of the most significant theological books published in recent decades is Christus Victor by Gustaf Aulen. In it he suggests that there are three main ideas or theories of the atonement: the classic, the Latin, and the subjective-humanistic. That which makes the book both significant and controversial is the author's contention that the authentic Scriptural doctrine of the atonement is the classic idea, that Luther was an exponent of the classic idea and that therefore the orthodox Lutheran doctrine of the atonement differs markedly both from Scripture and from Luther. Aulen asserts that “the doctrine of Lutheranism became a …

A New Lexicon, Martin H. Franzmann
A New Lexicon, Martin H. Franzmann
Concordia Theological Monthly
This is not to be a review of the new lexicon -is there such a thing as a "new" lexicon? The survey of New Testament lexicography from 1522 to 1957 given by the editors of this lexicon in their Introduction (pp. v-viii) shows how relative the term "new" is in this connection; lexicographers stand strictly in a succession. Much less is this to be a critical review. We shall have to leave critical reviews to men who are less bound up with this work, emotionally and otherwise, than we of The Lutheran Church- Missouri Synod are. It is hardly to …

Robert Barnes And Wittenberg, N. S. Tjernagel
Concordia Theological Monthly
From the year 1521, when Henry VIII attacked the theology of Martin Luther in his celebrated Assertio septem sacramentorum, to 1540, when he reiterated his theological Romanism by ordering the execution of Thomas Cromwell and Dr. Robert Barnes, English policy respecting Lutheranism went full cycle. Between those dates on which the conservative position of Henry VIII was so emphatically stated, the king of England departed from orthodoxy and came very near to espousing the theology of the Lutheran reformers of Wittenberg, Germany. The royal dalliance with heresy during those years was not unconnected with the king's success in securing his …

The story of the development of Visitation Evangelism is here viewed in general chronological sequence, with principal emphasis on the individuals associated with the movement, their experiences and thoughts (as they may be apprehended), and their expressed attempts at contribution to the evangelism field.

Visitation Evangelism In American Churches, A. Karl Boehmke
Concordia Theological Monthly
Thirty-five years ago the term "visitation evangelism” had, in all probability, never been spoken. Today it is in common usage in nearly every major Protestant church body in America. The method of visitation evangelism is widely employed throughout the country. Some enthusiastic advocates anticipate its use in every city, village, and hamlet. With voice seldom raised and with methods far from spectacular, visitation evangelism has been instrumental in gathering large numbers of members into Protestant churches. It is estimated that in the past five years three million men and women have been trained in visitation evangelism. In large measure this …
