Paul's Missionary Methods, Arthur Gerhardt

Bachelor of Divinity

No attempt has been made to fathom the depths of the manifold problems concerning the facts of Paul’s biography. Questions of chronology and literary criticism ate avoided to give place to the purpose of our thesis. That Paul was called directly by God, that he was an inspired apostle, must not be overlooked. In this study, however, the historical facts pertaining to his mission endeavors will chiefly be stressed. The treatment is not intended to be more than suggestive.

The Doctrine Of Regeneration As Seen Especially In Romans 6:1-14, Eugene Klug

Bachelor of Divinity

Regeneration in the Epistle to the Romans: that is the problem before us for our consideration. Does Paul speak of regeneration at all in this epistle? There are those who hold that he does not, while others maintain that he does. Still others, unable to decide one way or the other, attempt to adopt a middle course, thereby becoming hopelessly enmeshed in doctrinal and exegetical confusion. The problem resolves itself still further into a dispute over one passage, ch. 6, 1-14, which is only section of Paul’s well planned letter which could – and which does, if I may anticipate …

The Training And Education Of Saul Of Tarsus, Arlo Krueger

Bachelor of Divinity

In undertaking a study of this nature there are two possible avenues of approach. The one is the rationalistic approach, and the other we might call, for want of a better name, the reverent approach. Both of these methods of approach have their advocates and adherents among students of St. Paul's life. And it is right at this point where the majority of divergences have their origin. The one approaches the subject from a rationalistic, the other from a reverent standpoint; and consequently both arrive at widely divergent conclusions. Therefore it is of primary significance that, before entering upon our …

Church Union, L W. Heidemann

Bachelor of Divinity

It is the purpose of our paper to show from History and from scripture that we have no reason to become disheartened in our position of strict confessionalism and determined separation from such unions which are based on compromise instead of complete doctrinal unity. History shows that this position serves the best interests of Christ and His Church. The Bible demands that this be our position.

Scientific Illustration, Alys Leontine D'Avesne

Master's Theses

It may be somewhat difficult at first glance to understand the essential character of the relationship of art to science, and especially to the natural sciences. Without illustration it would be impossible either to learn or to teach these sciences . Drawings are needed in the classroom and in the laboratory to aid the teacher, and they are perhaps even more important in individual research where there is no teacher present to guide and to instruct the student .

Scientific illustration is not only an aid to teaching, it teaches by itself when properly executed. In cases where verbal description …

The Doctrine Of The Church And Ministry According To Dr. Walther, In Relation To The Romanizing Tendencies Within The Lutheran Church, Waldemar Streufert

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

When one studies the writings of Dr. Walther in the field of the doctrine of the Church and the Ministry, one cannot fail to notice his peculiar approach to this locus of theology. In employing the word 'peculiar; we do so advisedly. In a certain sense, he expresses the same doctrine proclaimed by the martyrs of apostolic days. In this respect, Walther is ecumenical, not peculiarly original. On the other hand, placing his theories beside the theories of his contemporaries, we must admit that Walther is an exception to the rule.

A Study Of Zuni Myths As Literature, Elizabeth Jean Lange

Anthropology ETDs

The realm of mythology seems at present to be one of the neglected fields of anthropology. There is an abundance of recorded myths available, which if intensively studied, would indoubtedly reveal much of great interest and real value to the anthropologist. The nature of the work done heretofore has been for the most part comparative, with only a few individuals attempting the detailed study of the folk-lore of a specific people. From time to time it has been pointed out that in mythology there is much of interest tor the student of culture in that through a study of myths, …

The Relationship Of The Universal Grace Of The Election Of Grace, Paul Juergensen

Bachelor of Divinity

A study of this subject will have its direct value for ourselves. After this study, we ought to have a clearer view of the matter than ever before, and if nothing else, we will have a better appreciation for the GRACE of God, one great distinguishing mark of the Christian religion.

The period is a distinct episode in the struggle of New Mexico for admission in the union.

It is the purpose of this paper to trace the story of jointure, to discuss the origin of the policy, and to analyze the arguments of the opposing factions. Frequent reference …

Subsurface Pressure Regulation Of High Pressure Condensate Wells, John Oscar Farmer

Professional Degree Theses

"The discovery of deeper production and higher pressures has resulted in the need for control equipment for preserving and protecting these great reservoirs of energy; and, in the case of high pressure condensate wells, has resulted in the need for means for preventing freezing or hydrate solidification caused by throttling the production. Development of a successful removable subsurface regulator has enabled operators to reduce dangerously high surface flowing pressures to safe workable limits; and, by moving the point of principal pressure reduction from the surface to warmer subsurface levels, has resulted in complete elimination of freezing conditions in flow lines. …

Applicability Of Hydraulic Drives To Oil-Well Pumping, James Francis Mcdonald

Professional Degree Theses

"To date, to the author's knowledge, there has been no successful application of the hydraulic drive to oil-well pumping. It is understood, however, that there is, at the present time, an installation in the Oklahoma City oil field, near Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, wherein a manufacturer of hydraulic couplings and an oil-producing company have cooperated in experimental work with the fluid drive applied to a pumping well. No technical data or information regarding the success of the application have, as yet, been released and, consequently, this work is presented primarily for the purpose of creating interest in the application of "Fluid …

Salt Industry Of The Kanawha Valley, Lorena Andrews Anderson

The manufacture of salt became at an early date one of the most important industries in the State of West Virginia.

The remaining salt wells were at Bulltown in Braxton County, on New River in Mercer County, on the Monongahela River in Harrison County, and at the mouth of …

Research Investigation Of Organized Drainage Districts In Mississippi, Lee Dorsett Dumm

Professional Degree Theses

"In the early days farmers attempted to drain their land individually, but they soon found that water did not recognize property lines. One farmer would ditch his land only to find that the water from his neighbor's farm would wash over has land and fill up his ditches. Another would attempt to ditch his land, but would find that no outlet was available for his ditch unless he constructed it across the land of his neighbor. Because of such situations, groups of farmers cooperated in constructing drainage improvements. However, difficulty was encountered in reaching an agreement as to the division …
