A Comparative Study Of The Doctrine Of Scripture In Article 4 Of The Apology Of The Augsburg Confession With The Doctrine Of Scripture In The Works Of Kister Stendahl, Jerry Kosberg

Master of Divinity Thesis

This paper is to be a comparative study of the doctrine of Scripture found in Article Four of the Apology of the Augsburg Confession with the doctrine of Scripture found in various representative writings of Dr. Krister Stendahl.

The Edifying Word: The Word Of Hope, Paul G. Bretscher

Concordia Theological Monthly

Psalm 130 serves as the basis for this exhortation to the church to edify one another in the hope of the Gospel, whose word of promise alone establishes our election, our eschatology, and our ethos.
