The Christian And Government, A. M. Rehwinkel

Concordia Theological Monthly

Good government is one of the most precious temporal gifts God gives to a people, while a vicious, corrupt. and incompetent government may become the greatest curse. Every citizen is therefore vitally interested in the establishment and maintenance of good government. The Christian, however, as a citizen in "two realms" has an even greater stake in good government than the non-Christian. According to 1 Tim. 2:1-4 good government is necessary not only for the individual's physical and temporal well-being, but also-and this primarily -for the carrying out of God's gracious purposes concerning the eternal welfare of all men.

Highlights In The History Of The Female Diaconate, L. B. Buchheimer

Concordia Theological Monthly

The early Apostolic Church set its seal of approval upon the ministering function of women, for in the records of the second century we find that women were solemnly ordained to a diaconate. While the appointment to the female diaconate excluded from the functions of public teaching and worship, it was considered co-equal with the male diaconate regarding the exercise of active charity.
