The Federal Council Of The Churches Of Christ In America With Especial Reference To Social Gospel And Unionism, Herbert Hinz

Bachelor of Divinity

The Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America during the past thirty-odd years has gained an extraordinarily large influence in the affairs of the American Protestant church, and American life and government It has been thought well, because of the extensive power of the Federal Council, to investigate the Council, with reference to its background, religion and work, with special treatment of those factors which make control by the Federal Council in religious, civil and political life intolerable. It is to a study of' such features that this paper is dedicated.

The Theology Philo, Roland Frantz

Bachelor of Divinity

But because his doctrine of the Logos is the center of his system, a study of Philo commends itself to every advanced Bible student. For this reason also we have in the following pages payed particular attention to Philo's Logos concept. We have made no special attempt to evaluate Philo's theology. Nor is it within the scope of this thesis to draw parallels between Philo and the works of later Christian writers. That is a study in itself.

Luther: A Blessing To The English, W. Dallmann

Concordia Theological Monthly

The Reformed Abraham Scultetus says in his Annals: "Students from all nations came to Wittenberg to hear Luther and Melanchthon. As they came in sight of the town, they returned thanks to God with clasped hands, for from Wittenberg, as hitherto from Jerusalem, the light of evangelical truth had spread to the uttermost parts of the earth." And so the historian Green calls Wittenberg "the little town which had suddenly become the sacred city of the Reformation."

Huldreich Zwingli, The Father Of Reformed Theology, Theo. Dierks

Concordia Theological Monthly

Huldreich Zwingli (born January 1, 1484, died October 11, 1531) has often been called the forerunner of Calvin; but as Ritschl, Dogmengeschichte des Protestantismus, III:27, point. out, Zwingli is the "real author of the Reformed confession and, together with Bucer, the founder of Reformed theology." It was Bucer who formed the connecting link between Zwingli and Calvin.

The Influence Of St. Paul's Jewish Background On His Life And Letters, Henry Ressmeyer

Bachelor of Divinity

To attempt to understand St. Paul involves more than a study of his Epistles and the Book of Acts. His letters and the Acts of the Apostles reveal little of his “pre-Christian” biographical background. We must reconstruct his entire background from several cryptic passages, viz.,"Of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee.” Also: “Paul said, I am a man which am a Jew of Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, a citizen of no mean city.”

The History And Scriptural Basis Of The Doctrine Of Christ's Descent Into Hell (Descuses Ad Inferos), Conrad Coyner

Bachelor of Divinity

The purpose of this monograph is to present a study of the doctrine of Christ's descent into hell both historically and exegetically.

It may appear to the reader that this paper has been written from a prejudiced viewpoint. But the writer maintains that a stout and honest effort was made to study this subject with as open and unbiased a mind as possible. But the conscientious student can only be as unprejudiced as truth itself is prejudiced, and with Daniel Defoe we say "He that hath truth on his side is a fool as well as a coward if he …

The Salzburgers And Their Descendants, Norman Kretzmann

Bachelor of Divinity

To the ministry of the Lutheran Church in America, this thesis is respectfully inscribed; with the fervent prayer, that by carefully studying the history of the Salzburgers, and especially the unfeigned devotion and ardent seal of the first preachers of the Lutheran Church in America, they and their successors may be stimulated to aim at a more elevated standard of piety, and consecrate themselves anew to His service, who hath redeemed us with His blood, and honored us by appointing us His ambassadors, to reconcile the world unto Himself.

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, …

Ancestor Worship, E C. Zimmermann

Bachelor of Divinity

The Law of God, written in the hearts of men, was doubtless much more clear in the early days of the human race than now, and while there may be no particularly outstanding instances of filial piety recorded in the first chapters of the Scriptures depicting the history of the human race up to the days of Noah, we need not necessarily begin to assume the contrary. We do know that these early patriarchs begat sons and daughters. Their children were doubtless dear to them and they in turn were dear to their children. There is no doubt about there …

Luther: A Blessing To The English, W. Dallmann

Concordia Theological Monthly

From a small number at the time of William the Conqueror the monasteries had grown to about 1,200 at the Reformation, when they owned from one half to two thirds of the land.

As early as 1410 Parliament demanded their ending; Henry V suppressed over a hundred of them. Popes permitted bishops to suppress some and with the proceeds to build colleges. Henry VII used the monasteries of Mottisford and Luffield to build the chantry and hospital of Windsor.

The Meaning Of The Formula Of Baptism, E. W. Koehler

Concordia Theological Monthly

The formula of Baptism is definitely fixed. Christ, who instituted Baptism, tells us that we should baptize "εις τὸ ο͂νομα τοῡ πατὁζ χαι το̄υ νιο̄υ χαι το̄u άψιου πνεύmatoζ,” Matt. 28:19, thereby distinguishing His Baptism from all others that in His days were to be found among both Jews and Gentiles. We have neither reason nor authority to change the wording of this formula. For further Information on this point we refer to Walther, Pastorale, pp.110-118, and to Pieper, Christliche Dogmatik, Vol. III, pp. 302 to 308.

To What Extent May And Must Action Be Taken In The Case Of Mixed Marriages?, Ronald W. Goetsch

Concordia Theological Monthly

A mixed marriage is sometimes thought of as the marriage between a believer and an unbeliever. But that is not the only meaning attaching to the term. Quite often it designates the marriage of persons of different faiths or religions.

The Social Ethic Of Martin Luther, Carl Walter Berner

Concordia Theological Monthly

In the present effort to trace the fierce currents of Europe's political ground swells to their source, many writers wish to discover the first rising of the tide in the thought channels of Martin Luther's ideas on religion, politics, and social problems, away back in the sixteenth century. Able thinkers, like McGovern, who have sent their searching gaze into the dim years of history in the hope of discovering the precursors, either men or ideologies, of the present world-wide eruption, have held to a theory of history in which men like Luther are given a lion's share in the responsibility …
