The Prophetic Concept Of [Tsedaqah], Loren E. Arnett

Graduate Thesis Collection

The concept of [hebrew characters] (tsedeqah) is a cardinal feature of the prophetic teaching. A study of the prophetic literature in the Old Testament reveals that the Hebrew word [hebrew characters- tsedeqah] and cognates appear about one hundred and sixty times. This frequent usage emphasizes the significant place the concept of [hebrew characters- tsedeqah] had in the thinking and preaching of the prophets. The impact of the prophets delcarations is greatly dimished for many readers, however, by the wide range of diversity in the Greek and English translations of [hebrew characters- tsedeqah] and its cognate words.

The Pastor After The Heart Of God, C. August Hardt

Concordia Theological Monthly

In the first of his Pastoral Letters (1 Tim. 3:1) Paul calls the office of a bishop (ἐπιοχοπή) a good work, χαλὸν ε̈ογον. That is a brief but beautiful and most significant characterization of the Christian ministry.

The New Testament Concept Of Fellowship, F. E. Mayer

Concordia Theological Monthly

This article will suggest three basic principles for a discussion of the term χοινωνία as employed in the New Testament. In view of the significance of this term in the present movement toward Lutheran Union and even World Ecumenicity, the Faculty of Concordia Seminary at St. Louis, Mo., devoted several hours to a discussion of the term on the basis of guidelines prepared by a committee. The material offered in this article is to a very large extent the author's attempt to recapture the salient points of the faculty's discussion. The article will discuss, first, the constancy of Biblical terminology …

Natural Law And The New Testament, Robert Hoeferkamp

Concordia Theological Monthly

This paper will attempt to investigate elements of Natural Law which are generally alleged to appear in the New Testament. Thus a historical discussion of Natural Law and the indication of the importance of the topic for current theological discussion are in order.

In What Way Does Christ Speak Through The Ministry?, Praelat Issler

Concordia Theological Monthly

Our question does not simply ask in what way Christ speaks through the minister's sermon, but in what way Christ speaks through the ministry: Hence our first thesis treats of this office (diakonia), the ministerium ecclesiasticum. It is neither possible nor necessary to adduce a locus classicus for the institution of this office: we have such only for the Apostolic office. But Gospels and Epistles alike reveal the same factual situation - the "office" is there! Word and Sacrament require it and, as it were, create it as their own instrument.

Race Relations -The Christian Directive, Richard R. Caemmerer

Concordia Theological Monthly

Does the Christian religion have something to say c:onceming race relations?

There are those who would limit the references of the Christian religion to race relations simply to those data of the Old and New Testaments of sacred Scripture which concern races. Thus they assemble material on the creation of man, the separation of races, the pattern of races in the pre-Christian era, the nature of races and the Biblical references to them in the Christian era, and the like.

A Physician Of Souls, Charles A. Behnke

Concordia Theological Monthly

Twenty-Five years ago Anton T. Boisen, who as a patient in a mental hospital had wandered in strange places of the spirit, began an experiment with four theological students in the State Hospital at Worcester which gave birth to the Council for the Clinical Training of Theological Students. Today thirty training centers in mental and general hospitals, prisons, corrective institutions and guidance clinics, assist twenty-five seminaries in preparing ministerial students for more adequate services as pastors of churches and chaplains in hospitals and reformatories. Concordia Seminary of St. Louis has initiated a course of its own which is deeply rooted …

A Study Of The National Curriculum Of The Presbyterian Church U.S.A. And Its Use In Four Types Of Churches In The Washington, D.C. Area, Mary Lou Stubbs

Student Scholarship

This report, examines the implementation of the "Christian Faith and Life" curriculum within the Presbyterian Church U.S.A.. The study was born from a post-war realization that the church faced a "cultural lag," failing to provide young people with a sound intellectual and religious background to withstand the skepticism encountered in higher education. In response, the Presbyterian Church invested over three million dollars to develop a modern, psychologically grounded curriculum designed to "teach or die". 

The curriculum is structured on a three-year cycle focusing on the life of Jesus, the Bible, and the Church. It emphasizes home cooperation through "home reading …

Form-Criticisim: A Critique And An Evaluation, Robert Jaeger

Bachelor of Divinity

The present thesis cannot do full justice to that comprehensive title for the simple reason that the field of form-criticism is far too broad and complex for the writer to treat it exhaustively in one paper. This thesis will attempt in part to delineate for the reader what form-criticism is and how it works.

The Validity Of The Sociology Of Lutheranism Of Ernst Troeltsch, Eugene Brueggemann

Bachelor of Divinity

It is not within the scope of this paper to treat the theology of Ernst Troeltsch in any kind of detail. Much less is it the intention of this study to pass judgment on his theology as a whole, except in the most general way, and on the basis of the judgment of others. But in order to make the review of his work The Social Teaching of the Christian Churches more understandable, and to provide a background for the critique of his sociology of Lutheranism, a few, paragraphs at the very beginning will be devoted to a rapid overview …

Church And Church History In The Confessions, Jaroslav Pelikan

Concordia Theological Monthly

The current revival of interest in the doctrine of the Church has far-reaching significance for many areas of theological study. Without an adequate appreciation of the nature of the Church much of Christian doctrine cannot attain full articulation. For example, there has always been a close connection between the doctrine of the Church and the doctrine of the means of grace, as Article V of the Augsburg Confession shows. The study of the Old Testament as the record of God's dealings with His people, of the New Testament as the account of God's establishment of His new people, of liturgy …
