The Yahwist Looks At Abraham, Ralph W. Klein
The Yahwist Looks At Abraham, Ralph W. Klein
Concordia Theological Monthly
While the Bible is recognized as God's Word for all rimes, each of its writings was originally addressed to specific people at specific times in history who faced immediate crises and/or opportunities. Obviously, the better we understand those original circumstances, the better we will understand precisely what was being said.

What In Scripture Speaks To The Ordination Of Women?, John Reumann
What In Scripture Speaks To The Ordination Of Women?, John Reumann
Concordia Theological Monthly
"Ordination," it is well to remember, does not appear, full-blown and in our sense of the term, in the Scriptures.

Justification And Anthropology, Wenzel Lohff
Justification And Anthropology, Wenzel Lohff
Concordia Theological Monthly
The author suggests that contemporary difficulties with respect to understanding the article of justification arise in large measure from the fact that justification has been separated from its anthropological rootage. At the same time, Dr. Lohff argues that the doctrine of justification offers great help to modern man, who often feels trapped in his very humanness. Furthermore, justification, when proclaimed properly, makes Christian unity possible. He describes justification briefly as the right and unequivocal determination of a human practice: to always live anew the life of faith in the Gospel.

Luther On Christ And The Old Testament, James S. Preus
Luther On Christ And The Old Testament, James S. Preus
Concordia Theological Monthly
Careful reading of this article will contribute to getting the hermeneutical debate in our Synod beyond the present impasse that has been created by a non-Lutheran posing of the alternatives by so many who are involved in the debate.

The Relationship Between Graduate Theological Education And The Worldwide Mission Of The Church, William J. Danker
The Relationship Between Graduate Theological Education And The Worldwide Mission Of The Church, William J. Danker
Concordia Theological Monthly
In spite of a desk piled high with other work, this writer could not find it in his heart to refuse an editor requesting an essay on a topic of such potential significance and excitement as "The Relationship Between Graduate Theological Education and the Worldwide Mission of the Church."
Is God Trying To Tell Us Something?, Wayne Saffen
Is God Trying To Tell Us Something?, Wayne Saffen
Concordia Theological Monthly
As the 1970s began, the western region of the National Campus Ministry Association held a convocation at the University of California's Santa Cruz campus to consider "Life Planning." The present article is a revision of this author's discussion paper for that conference. Its theme really deals with the crisis in ministry as such. As usual, campus ministry turns out to be one of the sensitive outposts catching some of the first signals of changes coming to affect church and ministry in the world. It is shared here with a wider readership in a firm commitment to and belief in confraternity …

Secularization Theology, Charismatic Renewal, And Luther's Theology Of The Cross, Theodore Jungkuntz
Secularization Theology, Charismatic Renewal, And Luther's Theology Of The Cross, Theodore Jungkuntz
Concordia Theological Monthly
The author constructs a theology of charismatic renewal with reference to the Lutheran confessional writings and to Luther's theology of the cross.
Erasmus-Luther: One Theology, One Method, Two Results, Gottfried G. Krodel
Erasmus-Luther: One Theology, One Method, Two Results, Gottfried G. Krodel
Concordia Theological Monthly
Luther and Erasmus were both biblical humanists, both affirmed the grace of God as central, but each constructed a different theological system. Erasmus always regarded theology as a descriptive task, best advanced by continuous disputations. Luther saw the Gospel as the crystal-clear center of Scripture, the saving knowledge revealed by God. Because of this conviction, Luther viewed theology as the task of making assertions, of boldly confessing one's faith.

Early Israel As The Kingdom Of Yahweh, Albert E. Glock
Early Israel As The Kingdom Of Yahweh, Albert E. Glock
Concordia Theological Monthly
Archaeological evidence indicates that early Israel as the kingdom of Yahweh functioned on the analogy of Ancient Near Eastern vassal states. In the religion of Early Israel both law and warfare were vehicles for the extension of Yahweh's covenant rule.

Methods In Studying The Biblical Text Today, John Reumann
Methods In Studying The Biblical Text Today, John Reumann
Concordia Theological Monthly
A rich variety of methods exists today for studying Scripture - text criticism, philology, literary criticism; source, form, and redaction criticism, Religionsgeschichte, and a host of other "Geschichten" - so that the Bible is probably the world's most closely and minutely studied book. But how can all these techniques be put together into a method, in the classical sense of meth' hodos, a "way" "after" something, a way for getting from one point to another, from the text to the practical goal that concerns us here, proclaiming or communicating the text today?

The Secret Of God's Plan: Studies In Ephesians, Martin H. Scharlemann
The Secret Of God's Plan: Studies In Ephesians, Martin H. Scharlemann
Concordia Theological Monthly
Verse 9 of chapter 1 of Ephesians provides a good general tide to highlight one basic theological emphasis of the letter. There the Greek, literally translated, makes reference to "the mystery of His will." The Revised Standard Version in this case retains just that wording from the Authorized Version.
Editorial: The Task Ahead, Herbert T. Mayer
Editorial: The Task Ahead, Herbert T. Mayer
Concordia Theological Monthly
September marks the beginning of a new academic year at Concordia Seminary and provides a natural stimulus to look at the task ahead of us. It promises to be an exciting year: a major task force is subjecting the total curriculum to analysis. We may not recognize the place after they are through. This would be good in the eyes of many pastors, students, and faculty. The students set another ball of curriculur revision in motion last year. Unfortunately, only one-third of that group will be on campus this year. In the judgment of some, the Denver convention of The …
The Gospel Promise To Abraham, Norman C. Nagel
The Gospel Promise To Abraham, Norman C. Nagel
Concordia Theological Monthly
"How were the people in the Old Testament saved?" That question is raised by students of the Scriptures in many contexts. The wary teacher usually responds by asking for a definition of the word "saved." A related question is posed this way: ''What is the nature of the gospel in the Old Testament?" Such queries open the door to a flood of concerns about the relationship between the Testaments. That flood will not abate in the wake of this brief article. The ravens and doves of biblical theology will hardly be satisfied with anything less than a preservation of past …
The Gospel And The Theological Task, John H. Tietjen
The Gospel And The Theological Task, John H. Tietjen
Concordia Theological Monthly
"I'm no theologian, but …. " You have heard the statement many times. After a learned presentation by a theological professor at a pastoral conference a parish pastor rises to add his wisdom to the discussion and begins with those words, most often to take exception to something the professor has said. A delegate to a church convention utters them to convince his fellow delegates of the practical, down-to-earth advice he is about to offer, usually stated in very specific theological terms in spite of his introduction.
A Survey Of Trends And Problems In Biblical Interpretation, Edgar Krentz
A Survey Of Trends And Problems In Biblical Interpretation, Edgar Krentz
Concordia Theological Monthly
Any man fool enough to accept the assignment described in the title above deserves his fate. He is like the mythological traveler approaching ancient Thebes. To go forward means to meet the Sphinx and her dread riddle; to miss the answer means to be thrown headlong down a precipitous cliff and face destruction. Yet the possibility that one may deprive Oedipus of his glory by answering the riddle leads one to trudge along the dusty path under the hot sun.

Biblical Humanism And Roman Catholic Reform: (1501-1542) Contarini, Pole, And Giberti, Marvin W. Anderson

Reginald Pole deserves careful attention by students of the Reformation period. Pole delivered one and shared in a second of three confessions which assumed Roman Catholic guilt for the splintering of Christendom. Adrian VI excoriated the Curia in his Instructio of Jan. 3, 1523, read to the Diet of Nuremberg by Francesco Chieregati.

Hermeneutic(S) ( Reading Programs In Theology), Martin H. Scharlemann
Concordia Theological Monthly
The ancient Greeks called him Hermes. In their view of things he had the job of communicating what the gods on Olympus might want men to know and what human beings, in turn, hoped to bring to the attention of their several divinities. His name therefore went into the making of the word "hermeneutics," which was first used to designate the art of getting one's message across to others and only later began to be applied to the formal study of the rules and principles governing the task of interpretation.

Sexuality, Marriage, And Divorce In 1 Corinthians 6:12-7:16, Walter J. Bartling
Sexuality, Marriage, And Divorce In 1 Corinthians 6:12-7:16, Walter J. Bartling
Concordia Theological Monthly
No other social institution can begin to compete with marriage as a subject of ethical concern and reflection on all levels and in all periods of Biblical thought (for example, the opening chapters of Genesis, specific regulatory injunctions in the Torah, the ethical message of the prophets, wisdom literature - both canonical and extracanonical, the Sermon on the Mount, the Tables of Duties in Paul and Peter). Equally important for a study of marriage are the varying patterns of marital and familial life reflected in passing references and allusions in historical accounts (for example, the patriarchal family history, the chronicles …
