Martin Guenther - Life And Work, James Albers

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

The immediate purpose of this study was to describe the life and work of Martin Guenther. The ultimate purpose, and that upon which the validity of the study rests, was to analyze the significance which Guenther's work had for the history of The Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod. This last objective received further stimulus by the question raised in the writer's mind about the previous recognition, or better, lack of recognition, of Guenther's work, especially by those who were his contemporaries, Was Guenther so unimportant for the Missouri Synod, that his work was largely unrecognized?

The Pastor As Administrator Of The Christian Fellowship, Harry G. Coiner

Concordia Theological Monthly

It may be helpful to say immediately that a church office, receptionist-secretary, an electric typewriter, a motorized mimeograph machine, and a mahogany desk are some of the trimmings and tools of parish administration but not the real substance of it. Parish administration is concerned with Christian discipleship. It is an activity rooted in what God is doing through the Word and the sacraments in the lives of men and women and children and in how they are being built up, trained, and committed to spiritual tasks.

The Body Of Christ, Richard R. Caemmerer

Concordia Theological Monthly

The Apology of the Augsburg Confession warns against two distortions in the meaning of the church. The one is that the church be viewed as an outward organization in which believers and hypocrites are mingled. In the days of the Reformation this distortion implied that the church was a political organization to which men adhered through the carrying out of rites and obligations. In our own time it may take the form of stress on extending and financing the church's business to the point of devaluating its other concerns. The other distortion is that the church is regarded as a …

The Theology Of The Book Of Proverbs, William Macdonald

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

Specifically, then, the purpose of this study is to discover and clarify the contribution of the שָׁלִיממְ to Old Testament theology. How does the theology herein reflected relate in general to the Law and Prophets? What are the distinctive emphases of the Book? What significance is to be derived from the palpable omissions? Does the theology inherent in the Book merely reflect that of the remainder of the Old Testament or does it contribute something new into the stream of truth?

The Concept Of Pleroma In Its Contribution To Pauline Christology, Harold Merklinger

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

The aim of this thesis is to investigate the meaning of the word πλήεωμα as it is used by St. Paul and from its theological content to ascertain Paul's contribution to Christology in his employment of the concept. Theologically Paul's concept of Pleroma is among his basic concepts. This is particularly true in his epistles to the Ephesians and to the Colossians. In the latter Paul uses Pleroma to give his readers a glimpse into the deep relationship which exists between the Father and the Son, while in the former epistle he moves Pleroma over into the realm of Ecclesiology …

The Celestial Element In The Sacrament Of The Altar In Contemporary Lutheran Theology (1945-1963), Donald Veitengruber

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

This paper does not propose to defend the use of the term "celestial element." The debate which has grown up around the Arnoldshain Theses shows us that we ought not stake the Lutheran or New Testament theology of the Sacrament of the Altar on the use of this term. And yet, it is a good term, for it takes us immediately to the heart of that which separates the Lutheran from the Reformed tradition. Do we only receive bread and wine in the Sacrament, or do we receive something more? This "something" is the "celestial element."

An Analysis Of Relationships Between Religious Broadcast Programming Objectives And Methods Of Presentation Used By Selected Major Religious Program Producers, As Compared With The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-Day Saints, Val E. Limburg

Theses and Dissertations

In a society greatly influenced by the electronic media, research indicates there is a need to effectively communicate religious programming to broadcast audiences. The establishment of guides lines between the programs' audiences, the producers' objectives, and the methods of presentation used to accomplish the objectives could better insure program effectiveness.

Matthew's Concept Of The Son Of God In The Context Of Jesus' Baptism And First Temptation, Paul Bretscher

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

Like Cullmann, Fuller sees a close conceptual relationship between the language of sonship and that of the Servant in Deutero- Isniah.

It is to this kind of inquiry that the present study hopes to make a contribution. We shall not attempt, as others have done, to construct a total Christology, or even to trace our single term through the whole of the New Testament. We shall concentrate on one Book, the Gospel of Matthew, and within that book on one moment, the baptism of Jesus and His first (wilderness) temptation. Resources which contribute to this limited area of study we …

A Study Of Motivation And Its Relationship To Churches, Fred H. Newkirk

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

As a pastor of a relatively small church, the writer has been intrigued with the question of why some churches grow, and in the same community, many churches struggle along at the same level of attendance for years. As one looks at the business community, one is confronted with the same similar question. Why do some businesses succeed, when many fail, and yet each handle essentially the same products. The question involves several different aspects of the study of motivation; group dynamics, leadership, the program, spiritual commitment, and individuals themselves. The main subject behind this investigation is the man on …

The Lutheran Council In The United States Of America, Martin H. Franzmann, Alfred O. Fuerbringer

The Significance Of The Principles Of Christian Education In The Ministry Of John Wesley, John William Cox

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

Evangelical churches are evidencing a new emphasis upon Christian education. There appear to be differences of opinion within the denomination of which the writer is a minister, as to the adoption and practice of Christian education. In fact, there seems to be a general lack of knowledge of what Christian education is, especially on the local church level.

Since this denomination holds firmly to the teaching of John Wesley regarding the doctrine of experience, the writer was prompted to investigate whether John Wesley used the principles of Christian education in his ministry.

Age-Group Doctrinal Training And The Assemblies Of God, Roy Lyn Schmidt

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

For years Protestantism has had many denominations, mainly because of variant doctrinal beliefs. Denominations who !eel their existence is justified and who feel the truths for which they stand are worth perpetuating, have the solemn responsibility of indoctrinating their followers in the basic doctrines of the Bible as well as the distinctives for which they stand. When properly done, doctrinal training should assure a denomination of its continued existence, and the perpetuation of the truths for which it stands. If not, the denomination will eventually amalgamate or disintegrate.

Accepted evangelical leaders indicated that doctrinal training was closely related to the …
