Some Scriptural Aspects Of Processes In Nature, August C. Rehwaldt Jun 1954

Some Scriptural Aspects Of Processes In Nature, August C. Rehwaldt

Concordia Theological Monthly

Nature is like a veil. It both reveals and conceals the truth. What William Taylor says of the parable may also be applied to nature: " ... a cloud luminous to some, yet dark to others; the enveilment, but also the unveiling, of the truth to men." If nature appeals only to our intellect, we shall see only that which lies on the surface.

A Study Of Hindu Eschatology, Kenneth W. Behnken Jun 1954

A Study Of Hindu Eschatology, Kenneth W. Behnken

Bachelor of Divinity

The eschatological emphasis as it is found in Christianity and its implications for the believer help to make Christianity the unique religion that it is. As God's revelation of Himself. to mankind, Christianity preaches an eternity with God, an eternity of certainty and hope. In contrast with some of the religions developed by man's philosophical invention, it speaks with certainty of the fact, of eternal life with God; in contrast with others it offers a living hope of an existence the marks of which are individuality, purpose, and bliss. It is in the latter category that the Hindu religion stands …


Luther And Evangelical Radicalism, Walter L. Bouman Jun 1954

Luther And Evangelical Radicalism, Walter L. Bouman

Bachelor of Divinity

The purpose of this thesis is to explore the relationship between Luther and this disparate radical element of the reformation. For this purpose we must distinguish between two aspects of the Radical Movement. Luther was forced to relate himself to Evangelical Radicalism as a historical phenomenon. This aspect of the relationship will be discussed in Chapter II of the thesis. Of greater importance is the theological relationship between Luther and Radicalism. Here we are concerned with a tendency rather than with a Historical group. While this tendency found expression in a historical group, it was also present in some of …


The Universal Declaration Of Human Rights In The Light Of Lutheran Theology, Theodore Ernst Jun 1954

The Universal Declaration Of Human Rights In The Light Of Lutheran Theology, Theodore Ernst

Bachelor of Divinity

Emphasis upon human rights in the Charter of the United Nations is not a vague, gossamer thread ephemerally appearing, disappearing, and reappearing. It rather constitutes one of the chief cornerstones upon which the Charter stands.


The Three Categories Of Existence According To Søren Kierkegaard, F Dean Lueking Jun 1954

The Three Categories Of Existence According To Søren Kierkegaard, F Dean Lueking

Bachelor of Divinity

The goal of this thesis is to examine the main materials in which SØren Kierkegaard presents the three stages of existence. The emphasis will be on the chief content of each category of existence, namely the aesthetic, the ethical and the religious. We will treat the third category, the religious, according to Kierkegaard's own two-told division of the religious stage--Religion A and Religion B. It will be apparent in the pages which follow that the scope of this effort is narrowed to only the principal concepts of each category of existence. Material of this thesis does not cover the entire …


The Concept Of Predestination According To Martin Luther And John Calvin, Won Yong Ji Jun 1954

The Concept Of Predestination According To Martin Luther And John Calvin, Won Yong Ji

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

Only Saint Augustine and Martin Bucer are mentioned, in the paper, in conjunction with Luther and Calvin. · Luther and Calvin are the two men who are to have the spotlight focused upon them. The question is what is their doctrine of predestination? What do they teach and write and think and believe about predestination? Hence the primary purpose of this thesis is to analyze and synthesize Luther's and Calvin's views on predestination, and to compare them with each other. To be correct, we shall have to make a distinction between “Luther's views” and ''Lutheran views," ~ and between “Calvin's …


The Doctrine Of The Call Into The Holy Ministry, William F. Arndt May 1954

The Doctrine Of The Call Into The Holy Ministry, William F. Arndt

Concordia Theological Monthly

In discussing the doctrine of the call, as we all know, we are not traveling on an uncharted sea, but the subject has been discussed in innumerable books, brochures, essays, lectures, and articles. A person would think that since so many navigators have been at work, surely the proper ocean lanes leading to the desired ports have been discovered. Sad to say, there is no unanimity here. Affirmations are hotly pursued by denials.

Jesus The Judge Of The World, Heinrich Willkomm Apr 1954

Jesus The Judge Of The World, Heinrich Willkomm

Concordia Theological Monthly

I dem Chistus palam rediturus est, ut iudicet vivos et mortuos. Thus our fathers confess in the third article of the Augsburg Confession. They repeat therewith the words of the Apostles' Creed. Except for corresponding sentences in the Nicene and Athanasian Creeds and brief, withal plain and forceful statements in the discussions of the Large Catechism on the Second and the Third Article of the Creed and the explanation of the Seventh Petition, there is in the whole Book of Concord only one single article which expressly deals with eschatology. This is Article XVII of the Augsburg Confession and its …

The Proper Distinction Between Law And Gospel And The Terminology Visible And Invisible Church, F. E. Mayer Mar 1954

The Proper Distinction Between Law And Gospel And The Terminology Visible And Invisible Church, F. E. Mayer

Concordia Theological Monthly

Ecclesiastical, or dogmatical, terminology has proved to be a convenient tool to convey Scriptural truths succinctly and precisely and to reject erroneous views. However, ecclesiastical terminology may also become a barrier to a common understanding and may actually be the cause that two partners in a conversation talk past each other. The usus loquendi also in ecclesiastical terminology is never constant. The terminology adopted in the Chalcedonian Creed is a case in point. The English theologian unfamiliar with Greek thought patterns may encounter some difficulty in understanding the terms after they have been transferred from Greek to Latin, thence to …


The Covenant Of Blood, Paul M. Bretscher Mar 1954

The Covenant Of Blood, Paul M. Bretscher

Concordia Theological Monthly

The ceremonial and spiritual climax of the Old Testament religion was the Feast of the Passover; in the New Testament it is the Lord's Supper. In these two feasts, especially as the one merges into the other, the covenant of blood is revealed in its fullest clarity and beauty. The words that Jesus spoke that Passover night in the Upper Room, ''This is My blood of the new Testament," are the simple key which confirms and summarizes the unity of the testaments in the covenant of blood. If this cup is the blood of Jesus Christ in the new testament, …

The Covenant Of Blood, Paul M. Bretscher Feb 1954

The Covenant Of Blood, Paul M. Bretscher

Concordia Theological Monthly

In both the Old Testament and the New the idea of redemption is closely related to that of atonement. Redemption is simply another picture of salvation, another facet in the diamond of God's gracious covenant with fallen man.
