The Social Gospel, P. E. Kretzmann

Concordia Theological Monthly

''Why bother about the social gospel?" a man recently told the present writer. ''The social gospel is dead and buried. No one concerns himself about it any more. It has been superseded by the theology of Karl Barth in its various forms, by the religious philosophy of Kierkegaard, by the neo-orthodoxy of Niebuhr and others, and by a number of other movements and developments."

A Manual For Summer Bible School--An Experiment In Christian Education, Allan Hart Jahsmann

Bachelor of Divinity

The need and the demand for new materials, new approaches, and new techniques in Christian education has been growing with the increasingly renewed recognition of the importance of the individual and the psychological approach to him. The parochial school teachers have been leading the chorus of voices for more directed mediums of religious instruction, and rightly so.

The Political And Economic Conditions Of The Jews In Palestine At The Time Of Christ And The Apostles, Julius G. Jacobsen

Bachelor of Divinity

To fully understand this era in history with which the New Testament deals, and to appreciate the environment of Jesus and His Apostles, it is of the greatest importance to have a clear and graphic understanding of the political situation of their day and time. Jesus and His disciples lived and labored in Palestine during the period of Roman domination, and this foreign influence figured largely in their lives, particularly in the lives of Christ and the Apostle Paul.

How did this Roman domination come about? How did it influence Jewish political life? What role did the Herods play in …

Paul's Activity After His First Roman Imprisonment, Elmer Kroening

Bachelor of Divinity

The object of this brief paper is to take again these known facts from Scripture and form what we think is the most reasonable picture of the final days of the great apostle. The greater part of our material is found in the Pastoral Epistles. For this reason we will begin this paper with an examination of the Pauline authorship and genuineness of these Epistles; for if this genuineness shou1d not be accepted, the latter days of Paul would always remain a total mystery.

The Essential Elements Of A Christian Congregation, William Schuster

Bachelor of Divinity

Our purpose in this paper shall be to determine according to scripture the essential elements of the particular church. We shall attempt to answer the question, What is the local Christian congregation.

Catholic Action, Paul A. Zimmerman

Bachelor of Divinity

According to well established policy the Catholic Church considers it its right and responsibility to rule in temporal affairs as well as in spiritual. Therefore, the Papacy today is striving through Catholic Action to condition the social and moral thinking of society so that the leadership of the Catholic Church may eventually be accepted in every field of human activity. The tremendous implications of this program demand thorough study. In our discussion of Catholic Action we shall first trace the development of Catholic Action from its beginning to the present day. We shall then consider its theological bases. Finally, we …

The Peassants' Revolts From 1358 As A Background For The Peasants' Revolt Of 1624, W Theophil Janzow

Bachelor of Divinity

It is not the purpose of this monograph to refute directly the contentions of historians. Nor will an attempt be made to prove that Luther's part in the Peasants' war of 1524 was nil, that there was absolutely no connection between the religious reformer and the social revolution. The object of the following chapters is, rather, to place before the reader the development and the causes of peasant reaction to feudal serfdom and oppression as this reaction takes place successively in the major countries of Medieval Europe. Beginning with the revolt of the French Jacquerie in 1358 and ending with …

The Right And Wrong Of Private Judgment, Th. Engelder

Concordia Theological Monthly

"Ueber die Lehre zu erkennen and zu richten, kommt allen und jeden Christen zu, und zwar so, dass der verflucht ist, der solches Recht um ein Haerlein kraenkt" (Luther XIX:341). The matter of exercising private judgment is of supreme importance. (1) They commit a monstrous crime who keep God's people from dealing directly with God's Word and judging all doctrine on the basis of it. (2) Blessed is the community where the right of private judgment is recognized and practiced.

Intercessory Prayer Its Nature And Efficacy, Robert Hoyer

Bachelor of Divinity

Prayer is one of the less controversial subjects, as far as logical sequence of its presentation is concerned. It has been divided on many fundamenta dividomi, private and public, personal and impersonal, for temporal and spiritual blessings, subjective and objective. For the purposes of this thesis, two of these fundamenta have been adopted; we are to treat of objective personal prayer. This has been given the convenient name: intercessory prayer, from the Latin inter: between, and cedere: to pass. To intercede is defined by Webster: To act between parties with a view to reconcile differences, to make intercession; to beg …

Jewish Fidelity To The Law In The New Testament, Bernard Wittrock

Bachelor of Divinity

This paper aims to demonstrate Jewish fidelity to the Law in the New Testament. The evidence presented in this paper makes it evident that the Jews clung to their laws, ceremonies, and traditions with great tenacity.

Justification In Article Iii Of The Formula Of Concord, John Meyer

Bachelor of Divinity

The doctrine of justification is the article by which the Church stands or falls. It is, therefore, almost impossible to overstress its importance or to understress the danger of error in this most fundamental of all teachings. And so studying an error in the doctrine of justification is profitable for understanding and appreciating the true doctrine of Scripture in other points as well.

Christ, The Prophesied Suffering Servant Of Isaiah 53, Rudolph Rehmer

Bachelor of Divinity

In the following thesis it will be the writer's purpose to focus the light entirely upon Christ as the subject of Isaiah 53. In so doing, he has undertaken to trace the life and work of Christ as drawn in the Gospels and the epistles to show how He is the exact reproduction of the Suffering Servant.

A History Of The Cithara Sanctorum (Tranoscius), Jaroslav Vajda

Bachelor of Divinity

It is evident from the bibliography of this thesis that there are no English references available on the subject of the Cithara Sanctorum. This is in itself an indication of the ignorance on the part of the English-speaking world concerning this phase of Christian hymnody. Even Julian's exhaustive Dictionary fails to mention the Cithara! It was necessary, therefore, to work entirely with Slovak and Bohemian sources generally. These are naturally secondary sources, with the exception of the two editions of the Cithara which contain most of the original edition's hymns in more or less altered form. A first-hand study will …

Christian Architecture And Art In The Service Of The Word, August Waechter

Bachelor of Divinity

We have stated our proposition, “Christian Architecture and Art in the service of the Word”, with a purpose .The arts can, and should , serve the Word. But the Word does not need them t o be powerful and effective. Although the Word is not irresistible, it is ·powerful and effective in itself , per se. Paul calls the Gospel "the power of God unto salvation., • Rom I, i6 and the writer of the Epistle to the Hebrews states emphatically: “The Word of God is quick and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing …

Bachelor of Divinity

So that the reader may more easily and more fully understand various details described in the following pages it seems· advisable to offer a few words in explanation, showing the development of this thesis. It will be noted that the first two chapters deal with ·the background •from which our youth societies began to emerge. We have endeavored to picture this background from the various writings and expressions gleaned from different early periodicals and books. Thus the LUTHERANER, DISTRICT SYNODICAL REPORTS, LEHRE UND WEHRE, and other writings up to the turn of the century were thoroughly scanned for any notices …
