Miracles And Natural Law, Charles C. Nieman

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

The purpose of this investigation, aside from academical requirements, which it is an attempt to fill, is to show that the position of the orthodox interpreters of Scriptures, especially in connection with the questions of the miraculous, is not unwarranted or ungrounded.

Fundamental Inconsistencies In The Theories Postulating A Cuneiform Origin Of The Biblical Creation Record, Henry J. Kleindienst

Bachelor of Divinity

The purpose of this paper then shall be to consider the claims raised by those who believe that the Cuneiform tablets form the basis of these stories, to show the weaknesses of these theories, and to advance the positive reasons why the Genesis account is not dependent on any cuneiform original. We shall first treat of the Sumerian tablets for they are older in point of time, and then devote the major portion of the paper to the Babylonian tablets and restrict it to the so-called Enuma Elish.

Life After Death, With Especial Stress On The Teachings Of Spiritism, Russellism, And Christian Science, Theo W. Brust

Bachelor of Divinity

There is no subject that has more persistently occupied the mind of man than that of his state in the future world. A true understanding of this question involves man's happiness not only hereafter, but also here. It implies, of course, an "after death", or that death does not end all.

The Divine Call Of The Christian Minister, W F. Bruening

Bachelor of Divinity

Why could Paul tell Timothy, "If a man desire the office of a bishop he desireth a good work"? There must be a very good reason why he mentions this office as especially desirable in preference to other honorable vocations. Indeed, he did have a good reason, for Paul is not here voicing his own personal opinion, but he is writing what the Holy Spirit prompted him to say. It is God himself who is here speaking. It is He who shows us in in His Word why this office is of such great value and consequently to be desired.

The Idea Of God In 20th Century Philosophy, Frederick C. Stein

Bachelor of Divinity

What a hodge-podge! What god-makers our 20th century philosophers are! When revealed religion is condemned to the rubbish heap and modem philosophes relie solely upon their intellect, senses, experiences, nature, etc., what unimaginable and ofttimes unintelligible ideas of God do they not create for themselves. We are inclined to exclaim with Pyrrho, who lived 365 before the time of Christ or twenty years after the birth of Aristotle, “There are no two schools of philosophy that agree upon the essential problems. Speculation brings us only trouble and uncertainty and involves us in endless contradiction. Abandon barren speculation and - instead …

The Sunday And The Sabbath In The Light Of The Bible, Oscar H. Marten

Bachelor of Divinity

In this thesis it is our aim to find out what the Bible teaches us, concerning the Sabbath and the Sunday. In the first part we shall consider the Sabbath as to its origin and history; its significance; its abrogation.

Agnosticism, Ruth Agnes Grant

Bachelors’ Theses

Even in poetry is the existence of God proclaimed. Even in song are his praises sung. Millions of dollars are spent yearly erecting temples in his honor. Thousands of young men and women dedicate their lives to his service. Untold sacrifices are made in his name! In whose name? For whose service? Why, it is in the name, and for the service of that great infinite God who is the uncaused, first cause of all reality that began to be. Shall I tell these people that they are unreasonable, that there are acting in an illogical, irrational manner by serving …

The Teleological Argument For The Existence Of God, Louis A. Wilson

Bachelors’ Theses

After all, the mystic's position is not wholly unintelligible. For while his imagination serves him as an immediate perceptive faculty with which he sees God in his every glance at the universe, his view is not without a philosophical basis. It is from the data furnished us by the universe of our experience that Natural Theology is able to arrive at the knowledge of the existence of God. In doing so it may employ either of three ·types of arguments. If it begins with a consideration of the primary attributes proper to all finite beings as such, it is metaphysical; …

Character Building Through Literature, Mary Ignatia Wiesner

Bachelors’ Theses

To make straight the paths for the poets, and the critics, the terms literature and character shall be defined, the extent, as well as the limitation, of the influence of literature on character outlined, and a method of approach to the study of literature discussed. First, then, there will be a discussion of terms, then the opinions of writers on the moral values of literature, and finally, in the light of this discussion, this paper will attempt to show whether these writers claim more for literature than it actually can and does accomplish, and just how literature can be made …

The Synonymns Of Conversion, W H. Mclaughlin

Bachelor of Divinity

The over-systematization tendency in theology has had many sad consequences. Among these are not only the perverted harmonization efforts, which in the doctrine of election have led to the Calvinistic and the synergistic solutions of the “Cur alii prae aliis?" dilemma, and in the doctrine of justification have resulted in a lamentable confounding of Law and Gospel in quest of a "higher harmony”, but also certain subtly scholastic unscriptural distinctions which discriminate between the effect of the preached and of the written Word, endeavor to establish a different working for each of the sacraments, and have also borne fruit in …

The Christ Of St. John's Gospel, Leonard W. Koehler

Bachelor of Divinity

The purpose in writing this treatise on the Christ in St. John's Gospel is most ably expressed by the Beloved Disciple himself when he says in his gospel 20,31, "But these things are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God.” Jesus did so many things outside of those recorded in the gospels that John says, "I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written", 21,25. Therefore, with the help of God, the present writer, too, shall try to briefly show from this one gospel that Jesus, …

The Kingly Office Of Christ In The Old Testament, Clarence Peters

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

In the words of Luther's Small Catechism “the kingly office of Christ consists in this, that he mightily rules over all creatures, and especially governs and protects His Church, and finally leads it to glory.

The Natural Law And The Natural Knowledge Of God And Their Relation To Conscience, Richard R. Caemmerer

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

A study of the phenomenon of conscience reveals the existence of a rational and emotional reaction as the normal component of man, forcing him to evaluation of every act performed or conceived of as performed., according to the dictates of acknowledged ethical. standards.

The Doctrine Of Christ In The Apocalypse, Walter Ellwanger

Bachelor of Divinity

More have been led astray by vagaries and false notions received from the Apocalypse of Saint John than from any other book of the Bible. Luther wrote four centuries ago: "Es haben wohl viel sich daran versucht, aber bis auf den heutigen Tag nichts Gewisees aufbracht, etliche viel ungeschicktes Dinges aus ihren Kopf hineingebraeuet." (Vol. XIV, 130.) This warning applies today, and most certainly all who attempt to write anything on such a marvellous book as this have in common the feeling of trepidation and incapacity for such a task. It is evident that mysteries, problems, and difficulties will always …

The Conception Of God In Modern Philosophy: A Presentation Of The Views Of Josiah Royce, Henri Bergson, William James And H.G. Wells, H A. Basilius

Bachelor of Divinity

In defining the scope of our paper, we have tried to hold before us several very general objectives. In accordance with our thesis we shall, of course, treat the religious speculations of the above named philosophers. We shall nevertheless also show the roots of the respective systems from which these speculations take their source. We shall also attempt to show the endeavors of harmonizing-if the expression may be pardoned-religio-philosophic thought with the substrata of revealed religion together with the fact of and cause for the inevitable failure of such attempts. And finally, we hope to point out on the basis …
