Notes On John 16:5-16, J. T. Mueller

Concordia Theological Monthly

There is no doubt that the Gospels arranged by the ancient Church for the Sundays between Easter and Pentecost belong to the most comforting of the entire church year. This is true especially of those that are taken from Christ's farewell address to His disciples delivered shortly before His suffering and death. But the very fact that they are taken from an allocution of our lord on a special occasion and for a very special purpose renders them also (at least in part) difficult of interpretation and application. His last words were not only to comfort His sorrowing Apostles during …

Luke 17: 20-21 In Recent Investigations, Paul M. Bretscher

Concordia Theological Monthly

This is the significant passage recorded only by Luke and rendered in the KJ version: "When He was demanded of the Pharisees when the Kingdom of God should come, He answered them and said: The Kingdom of God cometh not with observation; neither shall they say, Lo, here! or, Lo, there! for, behold, the Kingdom of God is within you." The passage poses a number of linguistic and exegetical difficulties.

The Moral And Spiritual Qualifications Of The Biblical Interpreter, Raymond F. Surburg

Concordia Theological Monthly

The existence of many different Christian sects and denominations, although all purport to base their theological tenets on the Bible, has been a source of great perplexity to Christian and non-Christian students of the religious life of the past and present. While a number of reasons have been advanced for this situation, one of the underlying causes has been correctly stated by Burrows when he wrote: "Wrong methods of interpretation and use have prevented Christians hitherto from arriving at any unity in their understanding of the Scriptures."

An Evaluation Of Adult Confirmation Materials, Frederick Koehler

Bachelor of Divinity

Working with adults has proved to me an enjoyable and rewarding experience. This thesis is written with a desire to help give adults that which has proved to be a blessing to me and to fulfill in their lives this same joy which they may have never known.

The author does not pretend to be an authority on this subject matter, but is writing on adult confirmation materials merely because of his love in this field. Neither does he intend to exhaust all the material related to this paper, but merely to present an overview in order to evaluate some …

The Place Of Prayer In The Sanctification Of Christian Life, James G. Manz

Concordia Theological Monthly

Prayer, in and by itself, makes no one holy. It is only the person who is already holy in Christ who truly prays. One's whole conception of Christianity can be perverted if one begins to speak about prayer without first relating it to the Word of the Gospel. A word of warning from Luther is in place as we begin to consider the subject of this paper: But I would counsel you, if you wish to pray, fast, or establish some foundation in the Church, take heed not to do it in order to obtain some benefit, whether temporal or …

Form-Criticisim: A Critique And An Evaluation, Robert Jaeger

Bachelor of Divinity

The present thesis cannot do full justice to that comprehensive title for the simple reason that the field of form-criticism is far too broad and complex for the writer to treat it exhaustively in one paper. This thesis will attempt in part to delineate for the reader what form-criticism is and how it works.

Paul's Concept Of Christ As The Wisdom Of God, Bernhard Kurzweg

Bachelor of Divinity

Our purpose, then, will be an objective comparison of the functions of Paul's Sophia with the personal Chokmah. The logos of John will frequently enter in by way of comparison. The close relationship between the three will be evident throughout.

Peirasmos In The New Testament - Its Exegetical And Theological Implications, Delwin B. Schneider

Bachelor of Divinity

It is the aim of this study to present the Christian doctrine of temptation as it is found in the words Πeιpόςw and Πeιpθθwός in the New Testament. The terms appear frequently upon its pages. It is my purpose to study these appearances as they are found in the original text and upon such a study formulate the basic New Testament conception of temptation.

The Problen Of The Apparent Conflict Between Paul And James, Paul Ph Spitz

Bachelor of Divinity

The problem of the exposition of justification is not, however, the only point on which the Epistle of James and the works of Paul are said to vary. Other difficulties that have been cited include the apostles' supposedly varying concepts of sin, their description of God, and the lack of emphasis regarding Christ in the epistle James wrote as compared to the Christ-centered exposition of doctrine penned by Paul.

On these points, as we shall find in this thesis, the difference lies not so much in the words that are expressed by the apostles, but rather in the scope of …

The Words Of Institution- An Exegetical Study, Reuben A. Kruggel

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

The words of institution for the Lord's Supper can be taken absolutely literally. The only words which require any interpretation are “body” and “blood." These can be interpreted only in the light of the concept of "communion.” On the basis of the text and in harmony with the Lutheran confessions this leads to three points, often called the Shibboleths of the doctrine.
