The Faculty At Bethel On The "Demythologizing" Championed By Professor Dr. Bultmann, A. Adam
The Faculty At Bethel On The "Demythologizing" Championed By Professor Dr. Bultmann, A. Adam
Concordia Theological Monthly
The intention is not to pass judgment on the theology of R. Bultmann in general. To do that, a far more detailed discussion would be required, for which we do not have the space here. In concerning ourselves specifically with demythologizing as understood by Bultmann, we had to curtail to some extent the study of the problem and thus simplify some of the implications.
In Memoriam Joh. Albrecht Bengel, Jaroslav Pelikan
In Memoriam Joh. Albrecht Bengel, Jaroslav Pelikan
Concordia Theological Monthly
November 2, 1952, is the two-hundredth anniversary of the death of Johann Albrecht Bengel, a leading figure in the history of Lutheran theology. He has exerted an influence over subsequent Biblical scholarship comparable to that of Luther and Flacius in the sixteenth century, the Buxtorfs in the seventeenth, von Hofmann in the nineteenth, and Schlatter in the twentieth. Until a generation or two ago his Gnomon Novi Testamenti was a commonplace in the libraries of the evangelical clergy; and some of the works which have come to replace it, like Dean Alford's commentary and the Expositors Greek Testament, are expansions …

The Historical Method In Biblical Interpretation, Raymond P. Surburg
The Historical Method In Biblical Interpretation, Raymond P. Surburg
Concordia Theological Monthly
The failure of exegetes to agree on hermeneutical principles is said to be one of the major causes for the divisions in Christendom, and, as Avey pointed out more than 25 years ago, American denominationalism will not disappear unless all bodies agree on basic principles of Biblical interpretation. Biblical scholars of the liberal tradition claim that the greatest obstacle to any agreement among exegetes lies in the continued use of the so-called dogmatic method inherited from the Reformers. Its advocates are charged that on the assumption that the Bible is divinely inspired and inerrant they employ the prooftext method in …
The Principium Cognoscendi Of Roman Catholic Theology, F. E. Mayer
The Principium Cognoscendi Of Roman Catholic Theology, F. E. Mayer
Concordia Theological Monthly
For a time it seemed that Rome made honest attempts to bring about a rapprochement to Protestantism and to remove as far as possible all obstacles in the way of a reunion of all Christian denominations. In the encyclical Provida Matris of May, 1895, the Pope suggested prayers for the reconciliation with the separated brethren (italics our own). In the encyclical Mystici Corporis Christi of 1943 and again in the Christmas message of 1949 the Roman pontiff seemingly welcomed discussions between Catholic and Protestant theologians. In the Christmas message the Pope did not seem to be averse in principle to …

Luther's Endorsement Of The "Confessio Bohemica.", Jaroslav Pelikan Jr.
Concordia Theological Monthly
As a result of the research that has been carried on in the past half century on the theology of the Reformation. we are now in an advantageous position for a historical and theological evaluation of the faith of the Reformers. What began as purely historical investigation has become instead a recovery of Reformation insights that had been lost in the intervening centuries. For this reason contemporary theological scholarship has been compelled to buttress its systematic presentations with historical material and to make its historical study relevant by drawing theological conclusions from it.
Johann Lorenz Mosheim's Philosophy Of History, Lewis Spitz Jr.
Johann Lorenz Mosheim's Philosophy Of History, Lewis Spitz Jr.
Concordia Theological Monthly
History as record and interpretation, just as history as past actuality, has been in constant change. Tempora mutantur, et nos mutamur in. illis is the inexorable law of life and of living academic disciplines as well. The history of historiography powerfully demonstrates the truism that each generation writes its own history. As the world view of humanity changes, the new criteria of evaluating the human story necessitates a reworking of the history of the past.

History As A Weapon In Controversy, W. Spitz
History As A Weapon In Controversy, W. Spitz
Concordia Theological Monthly
Eduard Fueter, ascribing the development of modern historiography to the Lutheran Reformation and more particularly to the purposes of polemics, declares that Protestant church history was created solely for the needs of confessional polemics. Ancient church history was to furnish the proof that Protestantism, in contrast to Catholicism, had preserved the original purity of Christianity. Medieval church history was to expose the terrible darkness to which the rule of the Antichrist had led.

The Interpretation Of Difficult Bible Passages, W. Arndt
The Interpretation Of Difficult Bible Passages, W. Arndt
Concordia Theological Monthly
What a grand book we have in the Bible! While we are said to live in a new age since scientists 'have learned how to split the atom and there is preached to us the philosophy of collective action in national and international affairs in the · labor world and politics - a philosophy which is definitely in the saddle and riding fast and furiously-we Lutherans cling to the old Book. We say it comes from God and it leads to God.
Why Should A Pastor Continue To Study Church History?, W. G. Polack
Why Should A Pastor Continue To Study Church History?, W. G. Polack
Concordia Theological Monthly
The history of the Church, the account of the progress of the Gospel of Jesus Christ in the world, with all the many ramifications it presents, the great characters it introduces, and the stirring and dramatic events it portrays, strangely enough does not interest every pastor, as it does not interest every theological student at our Seminary. Some pastors sagely declare that they do not care about the study of church history, what they are interested in is making church history. The latter may be a most laudable ambition, but one wonders whether real, worth-while history can be made by …
The No And The Yes Of Scripture On Atheism, W. H. Dau
The No And The Yes Of Scripture On Atheism, W. H. Dau
Concordia Theological Monthly
The question to be investigated now is whether Scripture regards atheism as possible; whether atheism is viewed by the Biblical writers as a reality or merely a state of mind and a matter of imagination.
