Evangelical Christianity And The Philosophy Of Interreligious Dialogue, Michael S. Jones
Evangelical Christianity And The Philosophy Of Interreligious Dialogue, Michael S. Jones
SOR Faculty Publications and Presentations
In this essay, the author, an evangelical Christian, seeks to analyze the arguments for and against evangelical participation in interreligious dialogue. He finds that, while the arguments against evangelical participation in dialogue suggest some important boundaries for dialogue, they do not completely militate against it. Conversely, the arguments for dialogue form a persuasive case for evangelical participation

Book Review: Natural Church Development By Christian Schwarz, John Ellas, Flavil Yeakley Harding University
Book Review: Natural Church Development By Christian Schwarz, John Ellas, Flavil Yeakley Harding University
Journal of the American Society for Church Growth
From a popular standpoint, Christian Schwarz's book on natural church development is being accepted overwhelming, and also uncritically, by many pastors and church leaders. However, several scholars are raising major concerns about the research methodology employed by Schwarz. Drs John Ellas and Flavil Yeakley carefully point out what they describe as the “pseudo-science” used for the underlying research base described in Schwarz’s book.

Córdoban Discourses: A Drama Of Interreligious Dialogue, James Shields
Faculty Journal Articles
SETTING: Cordoba, Spain, 1135 CE, 29th year of the reign of ‘Ali “amir al-muslimin,” second king of the Berber Almoravid dynasty, rulers of Moorish Spain from 1071 to 1147. Cordoba, the capital of Andalus and the center of the Almoravid holdings in Spain, is a bustling cosmopolitan center, a crossroads for Europe and the Middle East, and the meeting-point of three religious traditions. Most significantly, Cordoba at this time is the hub of European intellectual activity. From the square—itself impressively large and surrounded by a massive collonade, the regularity and ordered beauty of which typifies the Moorish taste for symmetry …

O Come Our Wisdom From On High- An Introduction Into Wisdom Christology, Ralph Shorey
O Come Our Wisdom From On High- An Introduction Into Wisdom Christology, Ralph Shorey
Master of Sacred Theology Seminar Papers
The purpose of this paper is not to tackle directly all the varying presuppositions held by Feminists in connection with Sophia Christology. Paul Wenz, in the Thanksgiving, 1994 issue of Concordia Student Journal has written an excellent article concerning this point.' Instead, this paper will deal with the following: (1) The general meaning of "wisdom" as it is commonly understood in Scripture, (2) an analytical study of Proverbs 8:22-35 in order to see how Scripture has appropriated the name of Wisdom to Christ, and (3) a brief survey of Early Church History up to the Nicene Creed of 325 A.D. …
Original Sin In The Smalcald Articles With An Excursus On The Coat Of Skins As An Image Of Original, Albert Collver Iii
Original Sin In The Smalcald Articles With An Excursus On The Coat Of Skins As An Image Of Original, Albert Collver Iii
Master of Sacred Theology Seminar Papers
In order to understand better how Luther understood original sin in the Smalcald Articles," this paper will compare SA with two other Luther writings, one contemporary with its composition and one from his earlier writings. Since Luther adopted the term "original sin," it will be useful to briefly examine the events that led to the coinage of the term by Augustine in addition to examining a few patristic sources in order to see how the idea of "original sin" was expressed formerly. Finally, Luther's confession of original sin in SA will be addressed to current issues such as the decay …
Christology In Africa: Work In Progress, Carl Rockrohr
Christology In Africa: Work In Progress, Carl Rockrohr
Master of Sacred Theology Seminar Papers
Can Jesus Christ be preached, teached and confessed only through the worldviews, philosophies and languages of the writers of the Nicene and Chalcedonian creeds? Can Christology be faithfully understood only from traditional Western perspectives? Now in the life of the Christian church in Africa at the end of 20th century, this is a question being addressed by a variety of African Christian theologians. This paper will: 1) briefly outline some difficulties currently being identified by African theologians and missionaries with Christology presented from Western world views in Africa; 2) overview some Christologies developed with an African perspective; and 3) review …
De Poenitentia Et Evangelio Coming Together And Coming Clear In Luther's Theology, Korey Maas
De Poenitentia Et Evangelio Coming Together And Coming Clear In Luther's Theology, Korey Maas
Master of Sacred Theology Seminar Papers
These three breakthroughs - the understanding of God's righteousness, law and gospel, and repentance - are not noted here arbitrarily. While the present examination is concerned primarily with tracing Luther's changing theology of repentance, we can not do so as if this doctrine existed in isolation, standing and falling on its own. Any understanding of repentance, Luther's not excepted, is intimately entwined with one's understanding of God's righteousness and the gospel- and most importantly, how these meet in one's conception of the person and work of Christ.
John 6 And The Lord's Supper, Jon Bischof
John 6 And The Lord's Supper, Jon Bischof
Master of Sacred Theology Thesis
This thesis ventures to reopen an old argument on ground which has been a "no man's land" for Lutherans for nearly 500 years. There is a tradition within Lutheranism of interpreting John 6:51-59 as having no reference whatsoever to the Eucharist. This tradition within Lutheranism can rightly claim the support of Luther who said, "it [the sixth chapter of John] does not refer to the sacrament in a single syllable". Naturally, no confessional Lutheran wants to find himself in disagreement with Luther. We would always rather defend his views when they are maligned. But Luther corrected his own views many …

Doctor of Philosophy Dissertation
This dissertation is about the concept of People of God in the Old Testament in late Academic Theology and in Liberation Theology as evaluated by Lutheran Hermeneutics.
A Study In The Theology Of Carl Fr Wisloff With Particular Focus On Faith And The Means Of Grace In The Bestowal Of Salvation, Eugene Boe
Doctor of Philosophy Dissertation
The general topic for this work is the relation of faith and the means of grace in the bestowal of salvation. The Lutheran Church from her beginning has believed, confessed and taught that we are saved by grace through faith alone. This is stated briefly in the Augsburg Confession, Article IV.
Our churches also teach that men cannot be justified before God by their own strength, merits, or works but are freely justified for Christ's sake through faith 2 when they believe that they are received into favor and that their sins are forgiven on account of Christ, who by …
Liturgical Theology: Substance And Source, James Honig
Liturgical Theology: Substance And Source, James Honig
Master of Sacred Theology Thesis
This study will demonstrate that three representative scholars of liturgical theology from three different traditions of the church place both the substance (material principle) and the source (formal principle) of Christian theology in the Christian worship experience.1 These views will be contrasted with the Lutheran Confessions which posit that all of theology centers around justification by grace through faith and is derived from Scripture alone.
