The Significance Of Luther's Term Pure Passive As Quoted In Article Ii Of The Formula Of Concord, Robert D. Preus

Concordia Theological Monthly

The Lutheran doctrine of conversion, standing as it does between Calvinism and synergism, is always a difficult position to maintain and defend; for it is built on a paradox, a paradox of exclusive divine action and complete human participation. Faith is at the same time passive and active: passive in that man, blind and dead spiritually, in coming to faith only suffers God to work this change in his heart, active in that man himself believes and is in no way coerced in this nor divested of any of his faculties.

Johann Sebastian Bach As Interpreter Of Scripture In The Passion Of Our Lord According To St. Matthew, William George Naumann

Bachelor of Divinity

With regard to the study or the St. Matthew Passion, or of any of Bach's works, the basic assumption must be Bach's familiarity with and loyalty to the teachings of the Lutheran Church .

Such a study has limitations. Any study of musical interpretation falls into the dangers of subjectivism. This is easily seen by the wide variance of opinion on perhaps the same musical form.

The Kingdom Of God In The Old Testament, Robert Edward Wolter

Bachelor of Divinity

The sole purpose of this thesis is to trace the origin of the Kingdom of God from the beginning of time, creation, to the time of Christ. The development of the Kingdom of God will be traced through four specific areas: the Patriarchal, the Mosaic, the Royal, and the Prophetic. Within each of these areas it should be kept in mind that God is using people to spread His Kingdom. The fourth chapter will give a brief summary of the Jewish concept concerning the Kingdom. As for reference to the Covenant Idea, the Son of Man in Daniel, the Suffering …

The Terminology In Philippians Directed To, And Influenced By, Local Conditions, W Gail Rabe

Bachelor of Divinity

The reader of the New Testament is ever aware that the Book he is reading has been written under the inspiration of God. He is not merely reading the results or man's wisdom, but he is opening his mind and heart to receive God's revelation of judgment and mercy presented in written words through the agents whom He Himself appointed. This often results in misunderstanding regarding the Biblical view of inspiration. Questions such as these often arise: “If this is God's Word, what part does the human author play?” "Is this inspiration a mechanical rendering whereby the author loses all …

Chrysostom's Theology Of The Priesthood, Albert Hahn Gaal

Bachelor of Divinity

Perhaps he can give only a beginning of an ideal for the construction of a theology of the ministry. The Church may find in Chrysostom a series of insights neglected over the years through carelessness. Then this is the problem which faces the Church--to study Chrysostom's homilies and basic writings, perhaps gathering from then new, important insights that can help to make the work of the ministry more effective in the confusing days which the Church faces in the Atomic Age.

A Review Of Von Weizsäcker's Am Anfang, August C. Rehwaldt

Concordia Theological Monthly

During the winter of 1919/20 Victor von Weizsȁcker delivered a series of lectures on natural philosophy at the University of Heidelberg. Because of conditions of war only a fragment of these lectures has been preserved. This was published under the title: Am Anfang schuf Gott Himmel und Erde. The opening sentences of the lecture proper are: "We begin by referring to a particular historical document, the oldest, perhaps, in existence, the creation account of the Bible. We shall see that it contains all the most important problems of natural philosophy." This paper is an attempt to share some of Weizsȁcker’s …

The Responsibility Of The Church To Offer Guidance To Parents With Regard To The Personality Development Of The Child, Edgar P. Senne

Master of Divinity Thesis

It is from such evidence and from such thinking that the desire to study the problem arises. Where do parents fail? What kind of help would assist them in doing a better job? Is the problem in any way a concern or a responsibility of the Church? If so, how can this responsibility be carried out? These are some of the questions which the study undertakes to answer.

Paul Tillich's Theory Of Symbol, Norbert Oscar Schedler

Bachelor of Divinity

We will begin this paper with an introduction into the Weltanschauung out of which the problem of symbolism arises. The importance of studying the trends in the field of symbolism is not to be underestimated. In the development of modern philosophical thought the problem of symbolism has played a decisive role.

Psychology In Relationship To Theology, Martin L. Maehr

Bachelor of Divinity

The purpose of this paper is not to answer specific questions but rather to probe widely and, to as great a degree as possible, effectively into the field in order to raise certain questions and determine the point of thrust of future research.

The Problem Of Polygamy In The Chrisitan Church Of West Africa, Paul Bartling

Bachelor of Divinity

The general scope of this study takes in the wider area of West Africa and is not confined to Nigeria or Calabar Province, where the Lutheran Church is concentrated. The scarcity of adequate and accurate documentary materials covering this particular area demands the broader and more general picture. The writer, wherever possible, has availed himself of the familiar materials pertaining to the situation of the Ibibios of South-Eastern Nigeria. While many references are specific to a certain given situation, it is held that they conform to the overall pattern found in West Africa.

Radhakrishnan: Prophet To India, Jack Wood Munro

Bachelor of Divinity

The purpose of this study is to determine what the basic concepts are which Radhakrishnan has reinterpreted for modern India. His foremost concern is to wake India from an apparent unconcern for social development.

The World Of Jesus In The Words Of Jesus, Robert L. Einspahr

Bachelor of Divinity

The scope of this thesis is limited to the words of Jesus as found in a Red-letter edition of the Authorized Version of the Bible. From these words of Jesus, terms and phrases were chosen that had, or appeared to have allusions to the world of the first century after Christ. These terms and phrases were then arranged into related categories as indicated by the chapter headings. Intensive reading was then done in the works and writings of missionaries and travelers in Palestine, of professional archaeologists and Orientalists. In this reading special attention was given to data which shed light …

The Christology Of The Seven Letters In Revelation Chapters Two And Three, With Special Reference To Possible Relationships Between The Author's Self-Designations And The Subject Matter Of The Letters, Ewald Otto

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

This study does not attempt to add to the material on the history of the congregations or to the analyses of their graces and defects, zeal and lukewarmness. Rather, a portion of what: has been written was restudied from the standpoint: of the relationship between the self-designation3 and the contents of the letters against the backdrop of the Christology of the Apocalypse.

The biologist and the physicist must begin with certain assumption~. To claim otherwise reveals ignorance and vanity. The theologian, too, must begin somewhere. This study assumes that the Bible is the Word of God, that an inspiration without …

Use Of Illustrative Materials In The Young People's Department Of The Church, Arthur W. Binford

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

Visual aids have played an important part in teaching methods of both the public schools and the church schools of today. Teachers would be under a great handicap if they could not use some kind of a visual aid to guide their teaching, especially in the beginners, primary, and junior departments of both the church and public schools. Visual aids are used in the public schools in the intermediate and high school age groups, but they have not been used in these departments in the church to a very large extent. The church has not provided adequate materials for this …
