Participation And Atonement, Roger Newell

Faculty Publications - George Fox School of Theology

How does the victory of Christ over sin and death impinge on my life nearly two thousand years later, so that, as Professor Torrance bas described it, his death becomes my death and his resurrection my resurrection? I will respond to this question by briefly discussing two 'subject-centred appropriation' models and concluding with an 'object-centred participation' model. The meaning of these phrases will be unpacked as the discussion progresses. However, at the outset it is important to note that the object-centred model is based on a more radical understanding of the incarnation which has been advocated by Professor Torrance and …

Receiving Holy Callings, And Being Wholly Responsive, Paul N. Anderson

Faculty Publications - George Fox School of Theology

"What does it mean to receive a holy calling?" That's a good question! Whereas "holy" is an adjective, describing the just and loving character of God, a "calling" is the activity by which we are encountered by God in a way which transforms ourselves and our reasons for being. The image associated with a calling is an invitation to come and join another person in a task and into a personal relationship. Notice how a calling is the opposite of a command or an order. An order sends some­one away with a task to be completed (Keleuo). A calling, however …

The Bultmannian Engima -- An Investigation Into The Concept Of Demythologization, Carlton Llewellyn Williams

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

Time and time again throughout the history of Christianity, scholars have challenged the traditional and orthodox Christian faith particularly on the point of hermeneutics. The Church has made vital reactions to such challenges and has incessantly utilized that which could be salvaged from the proposals and conclusions of these adversaries to clarify and formulate its beliefs. This should be the attitude of every Christian theologian as he seeks to exercise his role as a defender of the faith.

Interpreting the New Testament message in such a way that the modern man can readily understand it has been the object of …

Sanctification In Romans Chapter Six, R. Larry Shelton

Faculty Publications - Portland Seminary

One of the central themes of St. Paul is the concept of union with Christ. The apostle deals with this subject at length in Romans chapter six. Using the rite of baptism as a basis, Paul shows how the believer becomes united with Christ in an interpersonal sharing of spirits. He then points out the implications of this relationship for sanctification. Thus sanctification is vitally connected with the relationship of the believer to Christ.

The Theology Of Self-Surrender In The Writings Of E. Stanley Jones, Varghese M. Kattapuram

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

This thesis seeks to grapple with one of the most crucial issues confronting Christian theology today, namely, what to make of the insights and discoveries of the newer disciplines of psychology, psychoanalysis, psychiatry, psychotherapy, etc. For a while psychology proceeded as though theology did not exist or as though it were a remnant of the superstitions of a previous age. However, in recent years psychological practitioners outside the church have shown somewhat greater interest in the religious life of their patients and in the role of religious life of their patients and in the role of religious life and practice …

An Existential Interpretation Of The Doctrine Of Holiness, Mildred B. Wynkoop

Faculty Publications - Portland Seminary

The purpose of this book is three-fold. First, to analyze and evaluate the status of the "holiness" message today. In this analysis the problems raised by the preaching of holiness will be faced squarely. Then, a fresh examination of the Scriptures will be attempted upon which the holiness message is based. Finally, a constructive theological statement will be proposed in which, it is hoped, some of the most serious questions will find a satisfactory answer.

A Study Of The Biblical Basis For Tithing, John W. Anderson

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

Tithing is included as a portion of a Christian's obligation to the Church by most Christian groups of today. A considerable amount of material has been written on the subject. These materials vary in approach and interpretation. It was the author's purpose to find the Biblical basis and teaching for tithing, both in the Old and New Testaments.

The repeated references to tithing in the Scripture mark it as a subject worthy of special study. The adverse view of some Christians, such as Dr. Charles Fuller and Joseph H. Cohn of the American Board of Missions to the Jews, toward …

A Comparative Study Of The Problem Of Evil As Set Forth In The Views Of John W. Fletcher, Edgar Sheffield Brightman, And Edwin Lewis, Norman A. Riggins

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

The Problem of Evil stands as one of the major topics of Philosophy and Theology throughout the history of thought. The very nature of evil is elusive to the unaided human reason, and presents much room for speculation. This does not minimize the problem for, "In a day such as this, men and women are seriously troubled with the problem of evil." The fact of evil cannot be escaped, therefore it is of prime importance to all who attempt to think through on the major problems of life. Evil is around us on every hand. "We try to ignore it …
