Two factors have contributed to the important position Ft.

Genesis, Development And Progress Of The United Church Of Canada, Dougald K. Mccoll

Graduate Thesis Collection

There is an almost universal demand in Christendom for a union of churches, which will, in some way, give stability and visibility to the unity of all Christians. Throughout the world there are new movements toward unity. In England, Scotland, United States and Canada, in fact the majority of countries where the reform faith is in the strongest, there is a tendency to accentuate the things that unite.

The Bearing Of Nationalism Upon The Indian Church, Helen M. Nicholson Jun 1927

The Bearing Of Nationalism Upon The Indian Church, Helen M. Nicholson

Graduate Thesis Collection

There are various conceptions of nationalism, but the one which is incorporated here is that which has to do with a national consciousness, a feeling of unity among those inhabiting the same country. For the most part it is political unity which is meant, though this has been attended by an increasing emphasis upon unity of Indian language, customs, and manners. It must be acknowledged that there is a bond of unity in the historic traditions of the centuries of culture and in the religious myths which are immortalized in the Mahabharata and the Ramayana, but this is hardly sufficient.


The Rise And Development Of The Papacy, Kenneth E. Thorne May 1927

The Rise And Development Of The Papacy, Kenneth E. Thorne

Graduate Thesis Collection

"And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee but my Father which is in heaven. And I say unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven: and whatsoever …


A Study In The Literature Of The Disciples Of Christ, Alfred T. Degroot May 1927

A Study In The Literature Of The Disciples Of Christ, Alfred T. Degroot

Graduate Thesis Collection

The investigations which follow were undertaken out of a desire to make a definite and practical contribution to the study of the literature of the Disciples of Christ. Especially have we wanted to devise some means of putting the informaiton concerning this distinctive literature into such a form as to make it useable and helpful to the ministers and laymen in the movement in question. This we believe has been accomplished in Part II of the present volume.

A Sociological Study Of The Indian Caste System, George H. Singh Jan 1927

A Sociological Study Of The Indian Caste System, George H. Singh

Graduate Thesis Collection

Whenever people in America and elsewhere outside of India hear anything about the Indian caste system, they show a great contempt, even to disgust, in their attitude towards this ancient institution which has been instrumental, to a very large degree in moulding the destinies of India up to this day. To a casual observer this institution is but "a monster custom" (Low, S., Vision of India, p. 260) which saps the character of people leaving them degenerate in their own group and degraded in the modern world. He condemns it from every angle, scorns and abhors those who follow it, …


Adolescence In Recent Fiction, Sarah T. Sisson Jan 1927

Adolescence In Recent Fiction, Sarah T. Sisson

Graduate Thesis Collection

No teacher or parent, who comes in contact with the period of life extending from the advent of puberty to the attainment of maturity and known technically as Adolescence, can fail to appreciate, aside from any biological or psychological training which he may have had, that these years are full of storm and uncertainty in an attempt to gain control through harmonious functioning of body, mind, and soul.


The Emergence Of A Congo Church, H. C. Hobgood Jun 1926

The Emergence Of A Congo Church, H. C. Hobgood

Graduate Thesis Collection

In 1898 the Disciples of Christ took over the Equator station of the American Baptist Foreign Mission Union at Bolenge. From that time this mission has enjoyed a steady growth, both in missionary personnel and its influence on native life in the Equator District of the Colony of Congo Belge. Its influence has also reached parts of three of the districts bordering on Equator District. It is with the church that this mission has won from the surrounding heathenism and with the church that it is hoped may be built up in this section from this beginning that this thesis …

The First Nomination Of Benjamin Harrison For The Presidency, Paul M. Ross Jan 1926

The First Nomination Of Benjamin Harrison For The Presidency, Paul M. Ross

Graduate Thesis Collection

In his annual message to Congress in December 1887, President Grover Cleveland disregarded an heretofore set custom and established a precedent by devoting his whole attention to one question alone - that of the tariff. Pointing out the dangers of retaining a surplus in the Treasury, he stated that he favored a decrease in import duties as a means of reducing the accumulated surplus. The support accorded President Cleveland by the Democratic House, in framing the Mills Bill, and by the Democratic National Convention indicated the willingness of the Democrats to make the tariff the major issue of the ensuing …

The Slidell Mission To Mexico, John H. Walker Jun 1924

The Slidell Mission To Mexico, John H. Walker

Graduate Thesis Collection

Historical events are very likely to make impressions upon contemporary writers of their history quite different from those upon the historians of later times. The intervening years are essential for the proper perspective, the appreciation of their significance, and the separation of associated events. A more accurate view of any historical event should come to those whom time has carried beyond it. In case the event be the result of governmental policies, political bias will then be less influential. The original researches and secondary complications of later writers of American history have resulted in a much better understanding of the …

Protestantism In China, Yaotong C. Lee

Graduate Thesis Collection

The religions of China and the works of Protestantism have been written by many scholars both American and European but most of them were incomplete in mind or written with a special interest of a certain denomination. The aim of this thesis is to present (1) the religious conditions of China before the entrance of Protestantism (2) the historical facts of Protestantism and (3) the present condition of the Chinese Christianity. Special attention will be given to the beginning, the growth, the persecution and some characteristic facts of Protestantism. The materials are almost all mined out of the Chinese records …
