The Concept Of Love In The Johannine Writings, Omar Stuenkel

Bachelor of Divinity

In the present study I have given emphasis to the Johannine writings because John provides all points necessary for consideration. It is my hope that I can in the future expand and extend the consideration of the love-concept in the New Testament to include especially the magnificent Pauline passages and the Synoptic implications. I reserve the liberty however, in this paper, to adduce passages from any part of the New Testament where these will add a unique thought to the understanding of the Johannine concept of love.

Pauline Teaching Of The Future, Bernard Wittrock

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

This treatise on Paul's view of the future life is an exegetical study. The importance of such an exegetical study cannot be minimized; in a way it must take precedence over against the dogmatical approach. It has been aptly stated, "For all true dogmatics rests wholly on true exegesis; it is wholly dependent, never independent.”

An Investigation Of The Syntax Of Words Denoting Time In The New Testament, Ronald David Drayson

Master's Theses

Statement of the problem

In the English language, a word denoting time calls for the assistance of other words in order to describe the particular aspect of the time to which reference is made. For instance, the word "night" by itself describes little, but "by night" or "night-time" suggests the specific kind of time in contrast to "day time". "In the night" refers to a point of time at which something happened that did not involve the whole night, whereas "during the night" or "throughout the night" would suggest an extension of a condition or experience during the whole of …

Bachelor of Divinity

Before beginning the thesis paper, in which only exegetical and doctrinal matters will be set forth and authenticated on the basis of the text of the three inspired epistles and such other texts as necessarily are drawn into the picture, it is entirely fitting, yes necessary, that certain historical matters be investigated and the isagagical material on the three epistles of John be studied and briefly set forth.

Concept Of Sin New Testament, August Waechter

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

The proper concept of sin is basic in true religion; for only where there is an adequate concept of sin can there be a correct evaluation of the necessity of the deliverance from sin and the boon of salvation from sin and its consequences. This is very evident from the fact that even where there is a knowledge of the facts of Redemption from sin, the Gospel of Salvation is often emasculated, and the savior from sin is represented only as a Teacher of morals, an Example, a Martyr to His principles.

Luke 17:21, Paul M. Bretscher

Concordia Theological Monthly

Kittel refers to the saying of Jesus in this passage as "dieses vielbehandelte und vielgequaelte Jesuswort" He is right. Just a little research reveals that many have written on this passage and that their interpretations do not agree. Nevertheless, though It may never be possible in this life to determine with absolute finality what the true meaning of this passage is, and though some readers of this article may not subscribe to this writer's findings, the undersigned ventures to submit his own investigation.

New Testament Exegesis, Elmer Griesse

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

The purpose of this treatise is, first of all, on the basis of Scripture, carefully to define the various gifts as they are listed in Romans 18, I Corinthians 12-14, and Ephesians 4; at the same time to note concrete examples of these gifts throughout the New Testament writings; secondly, to call attention to a few significant trends in history pertaining directly or indirectly to one or more of the spiritually gifts, and, finally, to state the basic principles which should guide us in our · present day evaluation of spiritual gifts.

Biblical Concept Of Διαθηϗη, Elmer Griesse

Bachelor of Divinity

ΔιαθηϏη is a key-word in Scripture, used to describe the relationship of God to man and man to God. There can be nothing more valuable for man than a right relationship to God. With God, man is supremely happy, without God man is totally unhappy, and is doomed to eternal unhappiness and misery.

Jewish Customs Reflected In The Parables Of Jesus As Given In St Matthew's Gospel, Martin Lopahs

Bachelor of Divinity

It is the writer's object to delve a bit deeper into the history behind .Christ's parables in the Matthew account. He has found in his narrowed and short experience, that there is a very close relationship between the earthly and the heavenly elements of this particular type of instruction. And in order to make these important truths, taught in the parables. more vivid, more realistic to his own understanding, he approached this subject - that he might thereby establish at least a short and concise background· of the parables, to learn and appreciate the common scenes and customs of Christ’s …

Critical Studies In The Text Of Romans Based On P46, Elmer Moeller

Bachelor of Divinity

The purpose of this thesis has a background. Two years ago Doctor Arndt interested several of his students, among them the writer, in the problem of isolating in the Pauline epistles a Caesarean text such as that which the critics Lake, Streeter, and others find chiefly in Codex Theta for the Gospels. The resulting studies in the critica1 editions of Tischendorf and von Soden and in the text of Papyrus 46 (P46) served as a fine introduction to further work. Because of the interest which these studies aroused, as master’s thesis in the graduate school of Washington University. Saint Louis, …
