New Revisons Of Comparative Religion, Th. Graebner Sep 1936

New Revisons Of Comparative Religion, Th. Graebner

Concordia Theological Monthly

The three stages of down-town metropolitan real estate: the brick store, the steel and concrete sky-scraper, the parking lot, fitly describe the history of the comparative study of religion. The foundation was laid in philology when Max Mueller together with many a less brilliant, but more profound student of language developed the imposing structure of the science of religion on the basis of etymological study. The structure was laid low less than fifty years later, and on its place was erected the colossal pile of the anthropological study of religion, based on the evolutionary theory. The reconstruction of Old Testament …

The Principles And Teachings Of The Dialectical Theology, Th. Engelder Jun 1936

The Principles And Teachings Of The Dialectical Theology, Th. Engelder

Concordia Theological Monthly

Dialecticism, a branch of Calvinism, vitiates the chief article of the Christian religion, the doctrine of justification by faith. It does injure to the cor ecclsriae. The article of the grace of God in Christ, of justification by faith, gives the Church its life; in terms of dogmatics, it forms the material principle of Christion theology. Calvinism, however, makes "the dogma of God's eternal election the cor ecclsriae, the heart of the Church." Furthermore, by taking the heart out of the means of grace in denying that they confer the forgiveness of sins, it renders justification by faith chimerical. And, …

The Principles And Teachings Of The Dialectical Theology, Th. Engelder

The formal principle of the dialectical theology is not that of the Reformation. What about its material principle? The material principle of Lutheran theology is the doctrine of justification through faith, salvation by grace.

The Principles And Teachings Of The Dialectical Theology, Th. Engelder Apr 1936

The Principles And Teachings Of The Dialectical Theology, Th. Engelder

Concordia Theological Monthly

Enthusiasm in its gross form and Enthusiasm in its dialectical form is on evil thing. It is destructive of all assurance, of the certainty of salvation, and of the certitude of the doctrine. There can be assurance only where the objective character of redemption, the objective character of the means of grace, and the objective validity of the teaching is recognized.


The Principles And Teachings Of The Dialectical Theology, Th. Engelder Mar 1936

The Principles And Teachings Of The Dialectical Theology, Th. Engelder

Concordia Theological Monthly

The principles ruling the dialectical theology are not those of the Reformation. Brunner repudiates the formal principle of Protestantism, the sola Scriptura. He refuses to accept Scripture as the sole authority, the only source and basis of doctrine. The bare words of Scripture cannot establish a doctrine. “In earlier days this discussion [concerning the Virgin Birth] used to be cut short by saying briefly, ‘It is written'; that is, with the aid of the doctrine of verbal inspiration. To-day we can no longer do this, even if we would." (P. 823.) Brunner is consistent. Since he rejects the real inspiration …

Those who need to inform themselves on the teachings of the dialectical theology and on the claim that the application of its principles will effect the needed reformation of Christian theology and the Christian Church, will find in E. Brunncr's The Mediator the fullest: presentation of these teachings and principles that: has so for appeared. While Karl Barth and E. Brunner, the two outstanding leaders of this school of theology, frequently clash, they are agreed on certain fundamentals.

Present-Day Problems Of Lutheranism, F. Kreiss Jan 1936

Present-Day Problems Of Lutheranism, F. Kreiss

Concordia Theological Monthly

The Lutheran World Convention devoted the greater part of its sessions to the reading and discussion of reports on important problems confronting the Lutheran Church to-day. Unfortunately, for lack of time, the open discussion was frequently reduced to a minimum, so that it was difficult to ascertain what the majority of the delegates thought about the subjects in question.
