The Herods In The Opinion Of Comtemparay Writers, Clarence Bopp

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

Because the Herods were in power in Palestine at the time of Christ and His apostles, there are many references to them in the New Testament historical books. Most of these references record events which emphasize the character of a particular Herod. For this reason a study of the character of the various Herods is of as much importance to an understanding of the New Testament as is the study of events during their reigns. In this paper we have accordingly attempted not only to study the chief events which occurred under each Herod, but also to analyze the character …

A Criticism Of The Madras Conference From The Standpoint Of A Christian Believer, Wilbert Griesse

Bachelor of Divinity

What a wonderful thing it would be if all the denominations could get together on a common ground and work together against ·the forces of sin and hell: What an impression that would make upon the world! Such a condition would greatly further the cause of missions. It was especially the younger churches that were crying for unity. The younger churches cannot understand the divisions and the multiplied organizations of the mother churches. If they are all Christian, why are they not united?

Tradition And Reason In The Roman Sacraments, Wilfred Janke

Bachelor of Divinity

The supernatural truth was revealed to man through the Word of God. To this the Roman Catholic Church adds the unwritten tradition committed to the Church. Both Protestants and Catholics agree that it is not enough that God should give His revelation to man, but that gift must be kept pure and unalloyed and entire, otherwise it would be valueless. God, therefore, must both provide the sacred source of truth and keep it clean and uncontaminated. So far the two bodies are agreed.

The Doctrine Of Justification By Faith The Leimotif Of The Apology Of The Augsburg Confession, Lorman Petersen

Bachelor of Divinity

The purpose of this thesis is not to present Catholic doctrine and refute it, but, self-evidently, to show that the Doctrine of Justification by Faith is the Leitmotif of the Apology. We make no claim that we have accomplished our purpose, or that we have done justice to this great Christ centered Confession of the Evangelical Lutheran Church. We have only scratched the surface of this document so rich in Christian doctrine. Melanchthon was a master-mind, and it takes a master-mind to follow him.

The Catechumenate Of The Church, G F. Busch

Bachelor of Divinity

In a Christian home the mother usually is the first teacher. And after Baptism the child is a child of God, and must then be brought up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord, and this by means of living and instruction. It. is true, the child does not understand much at first, sometimes not even his own prayers, but it will soon learn to understand, and sometimes if mother forgets about the evening prayer, the child will remind her of it. And if we search the Scriptures, as Jesus commands us to do according to John 5,3, we …

Liberialism In Contrast To The Biblical Faith, William Grunow

Bachelor of Divinity

This paper is a study of the doctrines of Liberalism. By being thoroughly familiar with these doctrines, the student will not be misled by the sheep’s clothing of orthodox phraseology which Liberalists often employ.

The Internal Relationship, Linguistic And Theological, Between The Gospel Of John And The Epistles Of John, Marvin Kammrath

Bachelor of Divinity

The intrinsic value of a paper such as the one here presented, lies not so much in the impression made by the finished product as in the profitable textual study which it entails. The task of digging deep into the language and theology of four books of the New Testament has been a pleasant one. In addition to the joy of working with the original Greek of the sacred New Testament, of making careful literal translations and thorough exegetical studies, there has been the added satisfaction of unfolding cumulative doctrinal evidence overwhelming in its depth and extent.

The Fulfillment Of Old Testament Prophecy In The Gospel Of St Matthew Exegetically And Doctrinally Treated, Herbert Goerss

Bachelor of Divinity

Matthew has some 27 prophecy quotations in his Gospel. We list them here as they occur from time to time in the Gospel, giving the location of the fulfillment, the subject prophesied, and the location of the prophecy. Of course, in some cases, various prophecies have the same fulfillment.

The Knowledge And Use Of The Bible In The Medieval Age, Martin Bertermann

Bachelor of Divinity

In attempting to show precisely to what extent the new learning pervaded the countries of Europe during the Middle Ages, and, specifically, just in how far the Bible was known among the clergy and laity, one must be careful to strive for the golden mean in interpreting a flood of literature which usually goes to one of two extremes. The first of these divergent opinions is the one mentioned above, that the Bible, as almost wholly unknown by the clergy and laity of the Middle Ages. And this would seem to be substantiated by no less an authority than Luther …

The Use Of Hades In The New Testament, Louis Meyer

Bachelor of Divinity

The word hades (sheol) presents a problem--a matter on which the theologians or our own Synod are not agreed. Many of them believe that the word has various meanings--that in certain passages it means hell, while in other passages it has a general meaning, namely, "the state of death”. There are also those who are of the conviction that the term is never used to designate hell, the place of eternal punishment, but only means "the state or condition of death".

It is the latter view which, after careful study of the problem, I consider to be the more correct …

Demoniac Possession, Harold Maleske

Bachelor of Divinity

Among the many miracles which the synoptic Gospels record, special prominence is given to the casting out of demons or devils who possessed those unfortunate people commonly known as demoniacs. In order to clarify the Biblical concept of demoniac possession, the following facts concerning the Scriptural doctrine of the devil and his hosts must be considered.

The Prophecies Of Balam, Theodore Martin

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

Balaam is known largely because of his connection with the story of the ass that spoke, and, while critics point the skeptical finger and rant against the incredible nature of the narrative, they make the usual mistake of drawing attention away from the important part, the prophecies, and centering it on one incident, which is perhaps more striking, although merely incidental.

The Prophets And Political And Social Problems, Theodore Laetsch

Concordia Theological Monthly

Any one that even casually reads the prophetic books of the Old Testament will see at once that the prophets took a very active interest in the social problems of their day and pointed out a way to their solution. The question is whether what they say on these problems still applies to conditions in the twentieth century, 2,500 and more years later than these prophets lived. A categorical denial of the applicability of Old Testament prophecy to our present-day conditions would come into conflict with such clear Scripture-passages as Rom.15: 4 and 2 Tim. 3: 16. On the other …

Writing And Memorizing The Sermon, J. H. Fritz

Concordia Theological Monthly

Wrong methods make sermon work wearisome toil; right methods make it a pleasant task. Good instruction, based upon the experience of all great preachers and speakers, should not be undervalued. Old and tried methods should not be discarded merely because they are old. The young, inexperienced preacher may prefer to do things in his own way, believing this to be the eaiser way and yet just as effective. The fact is that it is neither. The man, far instance, who reads his sermon in the pulpit will never be a forceful preacher. Reading lacks the directness which makes speaking effective. …

Erasmus's Pictures Of Church Conditions, Wm. Dallmann

Concordia Theological Monthly

The Religious Pilgrimage describes the visit of Erasmus and Dean Colet to the shrine of St. Thomas a Becket, "one of the most religious pilgrimages in the world." In the south porch of the church stand three stone statues of men In armor, who with wicked hands murdered the holy man, with the names of their countries -Tusci, Fusci, and Betri. They have the same honor done them that is done to Judas, Pilate, Caiaphas, and the band of wicked soldiers whose images you may see carved upon stately altars; and their names are added that no one after them …
