The How Of Ethical Decision Making, John W. Kleiner

Consensus

In the process of ethical decision making, moral judgment is as important as moral commitment; thus ethical decision making calls for thoughtful consideration. To assist in this process the article proposes a model with four components: 1) theological reflection; 2) social context; 3) moral agent in community; and 4) resolution, response, action, decision, strategy, and planning. The article stresses the central role of the moral agent as the one who is shaped by the social context and theological reflection and also as the one who in dialogue with other Christians and in a reciprocal relationship with social context and theological …

The Elements Of Wisdom Literature In The Messianic King Prophecy Of The First Isaiah Centered On Isa. 9:2-7; 11:1-9, Yen Pyo Hong

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

Excerpt: "The prophecies of Isaiah are among the most important theological expressions in the Bible, and the Messianic oracle is one of those which has the most important values in the Old Testament.

The study of the Messianic idea has been done by many scholars, and our knowledge about the character of Isaiah's Messiah regarded it as eschatological. 1 But, even though Isaiah's Messianic king of pre-exilic period could be connected to the eschatological Messiah of later Judaism, it is too early to call him the eschatological being.

This research will confine its concern to the character of the Messiah …

Significant Exegetical Aspects Of The Sadducees' Question To Jesus Regarding The Resurrection, Wilfred Karsten

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

The purpose of this investigation, therefore, is to take a closer look at the pericope as presented by the Synoptic writers, in order to ascertain if these disparaging comments (and others like them) are warranted. In essence, this thesis is a defense of the view which holds that Jesus' answer to the Sadducees' question was a direct and explicit proof of the resurrection of the dead.

The Priesthood Of All Believers And The Theology Of Pietism, Breno Faber

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

Pietism and pietistic emphases are becoming popular again because during the seventeenth and early eighteenth century the Pietists sought to revitalize Christianity in ways familiar to twentieth century Christians seeking to do the same. Pietism sought to foster a more vigorous personal and public piety among the people. They sought to improve the education of ministers in practical piety so that they might better guide and edify their people. They sought to encourage the reading of the Bible, Christian education of the youthful and the mature, demonstrated social concern and resposibility in their philanthropic enterprises, and embarked upon ambitious programs …

Melanchthon's Understanding Of The Will In The Loci Communes, Richard Osslund

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

It is a commonplace among many Lutheran theologians that Philip Melanchthon was a synergist. The purpose of this study is to evaluate this theological judgment on the basis of Melanchthon’s Loci of 1521, 1535, 1543, 1555, and 1559. The conclusion of this study is that Melanchthon's writings do not support the charge of synergism which has been directed against him. It is not the intention of the author to ascribe malevolence or lack of scholarly integrity to those who have described Melanchthon's position as synergistic. There are reasons for the historical judgment that Melanchthon was "the father of synergism in …

The Anchor began in 1887 and was first issued weekly in 1914. Covering national and campus news alike, Hope College’s student-run newspaper has grown over the years to encompass over two-dozen editors, reporters, and staff. For much of The Anchor's history, the latest issue was distributed across campus each Wednesday throughout the academic school year (with few exceptions). In recent years The Anchor moved to monthly print issues and a more frequently updated website. The Anchor is now published in print twice per academic semester. Occasionally, the volume and/or issue numbering is irregular.

The Development And Implementation Of A Training Program For Local Church Officers Designed To Clarify Leadership Roles And Teach The Concept Of A Servant Leader, Jim E. Mamanua

Doctor of Ministry Projects

Problem. Frequently local church officers are not effective in their leadership roles because they are not prepared to serve the church. In addition to increasing their skills and competencies, they need to understand clearly the function of their position. Local leaders also need to learn to participate in the decision-making and goal setting for the local church.

Project. In response to the problem stated above, this project studied the biblical and theological foundations for ministry. It vas ascertained that ministry is a shared service (diakonia) rendered by all members of the body, in cooperation one with another. Leadership in the …
