The Relation Of The Liturgy To The Word, H. Richard Klann

Concordia Theological Monthly

The essential aim of this investigation is not merely the historical delineation of liturgical practices, nor the consideration of liturgical minutiae in their historical setting and development, nor the establishment of a theological basis against liturgical innovations, but rather to state the Lutheran principles by which a pastor will be able to judge the relation of the liturgy to the proclamation of the Word in the worship of a congregation.

A Study Of The Mosaic Sacrifices To Discover Their Primary Meaning And Typical Significance, Donald Bletscher

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

Excerpt: "When the writer of this thesis was about ten years of age, he heard a statement which caused him a great deal of concern. The statement was made by a woman who was held as practically "the ideal" in Christian womanhood. She was a Sunday School teacher, which position alone gave her considerable esteem and authority in the boy's mind. The statement was only a passing remark in the course of a conversation with the writer's mother, but it struck a chord in the heart of that ten year old boy which made him doubt the truth of the …

A Critical Study Of Mormon Doctrine, Dwaine L. Bassett

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

The importance of any movement may be determined, in part, by its claims. If these claims are true, they will demand careful attention of all concerned. The Mormon Church claims to represent "the restoration or the Gospel of Jesus Christ." The foundation for this assertion is based on the Book of Mormon. This Book states; that the Bible in its original form contained a true revelation from God.2 This Church maintained that the Gospel was not retained in its pure and simple form, for following the apostle~ there arose an "abominable church" which deleted many plain and precious parts of …

A Comparative Study Of Views On Prayer As Held By E.M. Bounds, Andrew Murray And George Arthur Buttrick, Howard W. Perry

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

Prayer is an interesting subject to some; to others it is foolishness and nonsense., Because men are curious beings and desire to know, and because knowledge is hidden from the wise and revealed unto babes it was studied to see what good was derived from prayer.

The United Testimony On Faith And Life, F. E. Mayer

Concordia Theological Monthly

The Lutheran Church bodies making up the American Lutheran Conference have now walked and worked together for a period of more than twenty years. They have learned to know one another both as to doctrine and as to manner of life. They have been associated as brethren serving the Lord. Coming out of varying backgrounds as to national origin and as to distinctive trends in church life and practice, they have learned to cherish one another's contributions to the fulness of the Church's life in Christ. Through closer acquaintance and deepening fellowship they have found that the common roots of …

A Critical Study Of The Problem Of Religious Authority Within Western Christendom, Carl-Reid Duhrkoop

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

For centuries, the human mind has struggled with the problem of ultimate truth, but many times it has been turned back frustrated. Some have gone so far as to deny any possibility of having certain knowledge . Others would echo the question of Pontius Pilate: "What is truth?" To these uncertain ones, Pilate's question refers to whether or not there' are any val id norms, or if any objective standard actually exists. Their answer would be that they do not know "for sure" .

The Lutheran Doctrine Of The "Autopistia" Of Holy Scripture, Helmut Echternach

Concordia Theological Monthly

This doctrine of classical Lutheran theology is becoming very important today in connection with the discussion of the authority of Scripture and the Confessions. Stated briefly its immediate scope in its formal aspect is that Holy Scripture requires no other argument to prove itself the inerrant divine truth than the evidence which it bears within itself and with which it confronts the Church and the individual as the living Word of the living God, that is to say, as the Word which has life in itself and awakens life.

The Historical Method In Biblical Interpretation, Raymond P. Surburg

Concordia Theological Monthly

The failure of exegetes to agree on hermeneutical principles is said to be one of the major causes for the divisions in Christendom, and, as Avey pointed out more than 25 years ago, American denominationalism will not disappear unless all bodies agree on basic principles of Biblical interpretation. Biblical scholars of the liberal tradition claim that the greatest obstacle to any agreement among exegetes lies in the continued use of the so-called dogmatic method inherited from the Reformers. Its advocates are charged that on the assumption that the Bible is divinely inspired and inerrant they employ the prooftext method in …

World Government As Envisioned In The Latter-Day Saint "City Of Zion.", Hyrum Leslie Andrus

Theses and Dissertations

The Latter-day Saints look forward to an era of righteous peace under a world government having its central seats of authority in the City of Zion which is to be built upon the American continent and in Jerusalem upon the eastern hemisphere.

This movement, designated as the "cause of Zion" …

Problems And Progress In The Development Of Girls' Education In India, Rozaline Jean Cleaveland

Graduate Thesis Collection

In a country where only 2.53 per cent of the female population is literate, the importance of education for girls cannot be overestimated. India, being freed from British Rule in 1947, is now an independent self-governing nation. In its draft constitution it has accepted the democratic way of life. Democracy postulates an equality of opportunity for every individual to develop his abilities to the fullest extent and to be able to play his proper role in society. Therefore, in Indian today women have equal opportunity with men guaranteed by the constitution; and, in order to exercise this libety with an …

Evidences Of Culture Contacts Between Polynesia And The Americas In Precolumbian Times, John L. Sorenson Sr.

Theses and Dissertations

Of the great unsettled problems of archaeology and anthropology perhaps the most hotly debated has been the relative importance of migration, diffusion, and independent invention in the origin of culture elements. The question has obvious importance, both for a proper understanding of man and culture, that ambitiously comprehensive goal of modern anthropology, and for historical reconstruction, the latter a necessary preliminary of the former.

The concern of this thesis is with culture movement in the eastern Pacific Ocean area. The Pacific area as a whole has long been the geographical center of the diffusion problem (if we may so term …

A Study Of The Literary Qualities In The Diary Of Hosea Stout, Richard G. Ellsworth

Theses and Dissertations

The aim of this thesis is to present the diaries of Hosea Stout in the light of literary criticism and analysis. Two questions have been asked: do the diaries contain literary quality by revealing the characteristics, attitudes, abilities, and feelings of Hosea Stout; and, does Hosea Stout's style contain the literary elements necessary to distinquish it from ordinary communication. Passages from the diaries have been quoted and analyzed to answer these questions. Conclusions are made after each analysis, after each chapter, and at the end of the thesis.

This study revealed that, in spite of Hosea Stout's spelling difficulties and …
