A Study Of The Changes In The Contents Of The Book Of Moses From The Earliest Available Sources To The Current Edition, James Roy Harris

Theses and Dissertations

Students and scholars of the L. D. S. Scriptures have long been aware of differences existing in the various publications of the material in our Book of Moses. To our knowledge no one has ever carefully isolated or analyzed these changes nor has any explanation been given either to justify or condemn them.

Our first objective has been to make a linear comparison of all significant publications of the contents of the Book of Moses. By "significant" we refer to those publications in which there are additions or omissions of words. All changes are then considered in the light of …

The Social Responsibility Of The Local Congregation To Its Community, Alvin H. Franzmeier

Bachelor of Divinity

This study attempts to establish if a Christian congregation, the Church of Christ in this place, has any responsibility towards the community in which it finds itself as that community tries to solve its various social problems. In doing this the study aims primarily at definitions of the Church and the community and the tasks, goals and motivation of both. On the basis of these definitions it strives to set forth certain principles that a local Church and its leaders might use as they seriously consider the various social problems in their community.

Not Discerning The Body In 1 Corinthians 11:29 In The Light Of Pauline Eucharistic Theology Of 1 Corinthians, Ralph C. Kruger

Bachelor of Divinity

Theological trends determine the specific emphases of the confessional doctrines of the Church. As throughout the history of the Church when new trends and theological postulates appear, the student of theology is called upon to examine carefully their content on the basis of Scripture in order to reject or absorb these propositions into his own theology. Twentieth century theology, captivated by the ecumenical movement, is engaged in renewed study of the particu1ar doctrines of the Church and Sacraments. The purpose of this thesis is to present for the reader's evaluation a brief study of a phrase from 1 Cor. 11:29 …

The Significance Of The P46 In The Second Epistle Of St Paul To The Corinthians According To The Nestle Text, Edward Frederick Peters

Bachelor of Divinity

The purpose of this paper is to try to determine, to a certain extent, the significance of one of these Chester Beatty Papyri, namely P46, in St. Paul's Second Epistle to the Corinthians. It tries to answer some of the questions that are being asked and which must be answered before critics are able to give P46 a final slot in the complicated maze of the history of the New Testament text.

Methods Of Expressing Purpose In Romans, First Corinthians, Second Corinthians, Galatians, And Hebrews, Charles D. Froehlich

Bachelor of Divinity

The purpose of this paper is to investigate and compare the methods of expressing purpose in four letters written by the Apostle Paul and in the Epistle to the Hebrews. The four epistles of St. Paul which have been studied are the one to the Romans, both letters to the Corinthians, and the one to the Galatians. It is hoped that some light might be shed on the probability or improbability of the Pauline authorship of the Epistle to the Hebrews.

A Brief Survey Of Some Modern Views Of The Historical Development Of The Kingdom Of God Concept In The Old Testament, Karl Koslowsky

Bachelor of Divinity

The mission of the church today is to proclaim the Kingdom of God and the extension of God's rule to the entire world. In order to better understand the task of the Church the author attempted in this thesis to make a historical investigation, and sketch the growth of the concept of the Kingdom of God.in the Old Testament. How did the idea of a Kingdom of God originate in the Old Testament? What did the common people believe about the Kingdom of God? In what manner did the concept of the Kingdom change during the ages? What was the …

An Historical Survey Of Old Testament Theology Since 1922, Delbert R. Hillers

Bachelor of Divinity

Since shortly after the first World War there have been a great many publications and lively interest in the field of Old Testament studies known as Old Testament Theology or Biblical Theology of the Old Testament. This surge of interest came after a period of almost complete: neglect of this discipline. This paper will attempt to analyze the causes of the resurgence of Old Testament Theology, to understand the various methods or approaches of major scholars in the field, and to analyze the results of these methods.

An Exegetical Study Of First Corinthians 10_14-22, Herbert C. Spomer

Bachelor of Divinity

The purpose of the writer treating this pericope is to satisfy his desire to become more intimately acquainted with the meaning of Paul’s message in this passage. By sketching the background and context of the pericope and giving a careful exegeses of the text, its terms and grammar, the writer hopes to demonstrate the timeless importance of the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper to the Christian Church. From this exegetical treatment, then, we hope to infer the doctrina1 and practical implications of Paul's teachings..

The Christology Of St. Mark, Roy Blumhorst

Bachelor of Divinity

The purpose of this paper will be to attempt an analysis of the Christology presented in the Gospel according to St. Mark. This Gospel has been widely used for Christological studies for good reasons. The fact that this Gospel is generally considered to be the earliest of the four would make its testimony of prime importance in investigating the actual historical evidence about. Jesus of Nazareth. The very nature of the Gospel according to St. Mark is another factor in using it as a basic record. Luke may be considered to excel in the beauty of narrative, John in his …

The Meaning Of The Passion In The Light Of The Word Pictures Used By Jesus, Arthur F. Gronbach

Bachelor of Divinity

Since these word pictures were taken from the heritage of the people of His day and therefore had a certain meaning before Jesus used them, it appears a fair inference that Jesus Himself had a definite purpose in using precisely the terms that He did. Undoubtedly He intended to convey a special meaning to His disciples through those terms. The discovery of that meaning should help illuminate Jesus' passion for us. This thesis, then, will attempt to answer two questions. First, what was there in the meaning of those expressions that caused Jesus to use them in predicting and describing …

The Unadopted Witness Of P46 In The Nestle Text Of Galatians, Colossians, And I Thessalonians And Its Treatment In The Rsv, Walter A. Ritter

Bachelor of Divinity

Ever since textual critics could examine the latest discovery of New Testament manuscripts reported in 1930, the Chester-Beatty papyri intrigued them like a child with a new toy. The high quality of the text of the Pauline codex, called P46, was immediately apparent, and critics began to wonder how much of the “established” Greek text would need revision in the light of this wonderful discovery. This thesis is an evaluation of a limited number of the variant readings in that important manuscript.

The Significance Of The Progress Reports In The Book Of Acts, Robert Smith

Bachelor of Divinity

A Study Of The Marcan Miracles, Donald Kreuger

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

The indefinite title of this study indicates its breadth and general character. This is not an investigation into the specific problems of various miracles, nor is it an exegetical. presentation of all the miracle stories of St.· Mark's Gospel. The present writer has simply, let himself be confronted by the Marcan miracles. From such a confrontation two basic questions arose-: What does St. Mark tell us about the miracles? and, What do the miracles tell us about Jesus Christ? This study is an attempt to answer these two questions.

An Exegetical Study Of Second Corinthians 5_17-21 With Special Reference To Reconcilliation, George Evenson

The Teacher Of The Righteousness And His Relationship To Jesus Christ, Norman Habel

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

More specifically we wish to examine-and delineate a. certain name which figures prominently in the Qumran literature. That name is "Teacher of Righteousness.”• Accordingly, we wish to uncover what kind of person ( or persons) it is who bears this mask “”Teacher of Righteousness,” and discover how he ( or they ) and the rest of the movement think. What are the basic beliefs, and controlling concepts championed by these Qumran students? This is the leading question! This question, however, can never be divorced from the question to which it leads, viz., how does the thought world of Qumran and …
