Eros And Agape In The Thought Of Giovanni Pico Della Mirandola, John Warwick Montgomery
Eros And Agape In The Thought Of Giovanni Pico Della Mirandola, John Warwick Montgomery
Concordia Theological Monthly
Anders Nygren's remarkable work, Agape and Eros, whose German edition appeared in Carl Stange's monographic series, "Studies of the Apologetics Seminar," and which opposes the interpretations both of Harnack and of Scholz, received from the outset high commendation as a classic theological production. In his review of the English translation of Part Two of Agape and Eros Sydney Cave wrote: 'Dr. Nygren's fresh and suggestive study puts many an old problem in a new light and in particular shows how false were some of Harnack's brilliant generalizations on the history of early Christian thought and piety…. It is some years …
Epictetus, Arthur W. Klinck
Epictetus, Arthur W. Klinck
Concordia Theological Monthly
Some time around the year A. D. 70, about the time of the destruction of Jerusalem, a lame and sickly little slave boy was added to the great household of Epaphroditus, freedman and favorite of Nero. Certainly there was nothing to recommend him physically. Yet it may be that that patience and perseverance of spirit so evident throughout his discourses had already begun to show itself in a certain nobility of demeanor which slave work could not erase and slave clothes could not conceal.

Luther's Alleged Anti-Semitism, Carl S. Meyer
Luther's Alleged Anti-Semitism, Carl S. Meyer
Concordia Theological Monthly
A recent best-seller dredges up the old charges that Luther was violently opposed to the Jews, that he was a "savage anti-Semite," and with that, a "ferocious believer in absolute obedience to political authority.'' According to this writer, William Shirer, Luther's words and sentiments gave the rulers of Nazi Germany, Hitler, Goering, Himmler, words and a pattern of conduct to follow in their program against the Jews.

The Hymn Of The Week Plan, Ralph D. Gehrke
The Hymn Of The Week Plan, Ralph D. Gehrke
Concordia Theological Monthly
A recent development in the field of church music has been the appearance, or better, the reappearance, of the hymn-of-the-week plan, that is, the plan whereby each Sunday or festival has its own particular hymn. Such a hymn is sometimes called the de tempore hymn, that is, a hymn that fits the time, the general season and the specific day of the church year. Such a hymn is also sometimes called the Gradual hymn because the historic place for the chief hymn in the service is between Epistle and Gospel where the Gradual is sung. And such a hymn may …

Walther And The Scriptures, Robert D. Preus
Walther And The Scriptures, Robert D. Preus
Concordia Theological Monthly
This stanza, written by the great Danish hymnist Grundtvig, can be traced back to Luther himself. It voices our attitude toward God's Word and offers clear direction and impulse for all our church work. Therefore it is fitting that we let this hymn introduce our topic and set the tone for our entire discussion.

Foreword, J. W. Behnken
Concordia Theological Monthly
When at Langenchursdorf, Saxony, Germany, on Oct. 25, 1811, another boy, the fourth son and the eighth child in a large family of 12 children, was born to Pastor Gottlob Heinrich Walther and his wife Johanna Wilhelmina, nee Zschenderlein, these God-fearing parents could not have imagined that someday this child would be a prominent pastor, a profound theologian, an outstanding church leader in America.
Walther's Contribution To Lutheranism, Lewis W. Spitz
Walther's Contribution To Lutheranism, Lewis W. Spitz
Concordia Theological Monthly
Walther neither inaugurated another Reformation, nor did he supplement that of Luther. Some people in the 16th century insisted that Luther did not go far enough in reforming the church, because he refused to disturb the church by introducing changes which were not demanded by the Word of God. Luther was not an iconoclast. Neither was Walther, who had no intention of going beyond Luther, but was satisfied with being a humble disciple of the great Reformer. As such he was loyal to Luther's theology, which he gathered from Luther's writings and the Lutheran Confessions. He would also have others …
Walther's Pastoral Theology, Frederick Niedner
Walther's Pastoral Theology, Frederick Niedner
Concordia Theological Monthly
It is unfortunate that the pen that is writing this article should be in my hand. It would be vastly more appropriate and of greatly increased value if this could have been written by one of the men who were in the classroom of Concordia Seminary when Walther taught Pastoraltheogie. I wish it could have been done by the man who held the position of pastor in Immanuel Lutheran Church in St. Charles, Mo., during the 22 years before I held the same position for 32 years, my very worthy predecessor, Dr. Julius A. Friedrich.
The Distinction Between Law And Gospel, Robert C. Schultz
The Distinction Between Law And Gospel, Robert C. Schultz
Concordia Theological Monthly
The distinction between law and Gospel is one of the clearest systematic expressions of the doctrine of justification through faith without works formulated by the Lutheran Reformation. The reformers' understanding of the bondage of the will, of conversion and repentance, and of the Christian as being at one and the same time a righteous man and a sinner is directly related to this distinction. It is also one of their basic hermeneutical principles.
Walther And The Lutheran Symbols, Arthur Carl Piepkorn
Walther And The Lutheran Symbols, Arthur Carl Piepkorn
Concordia Theological Monthly
Not the least precious part of the heritage that Carl Ferdinand William Walther bequeathed to The Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod is the latter's unqualified formal commitment to the Lutheran Symbols.
Walther's Editorial In The First Issue Of Der Lutheraner, Alex W. Guebert
Walther's Editorial In The First Issue Of Der Lutheraner, Alex W. Guebert
Concordia Theological Monthly
The German population of the western part of America is evidently growing day by day. Consequently there is also an increasing number of those who profess the same faith that Luther once proclaimed. Yet the members of no other church body are so forlorn as those of the Evangelical Lutheran Church. Even those who still call themselves Lutheran live so far apart and are in such poor circumstances that in many places they are in no position to organize a congregation and call a Lutheran pastor who can minister to their spiritual needs.
Walther In The Pulpit, F. R. Webber
Walther In The Pulpit, F. R. Webber
Concordia Theological Monthly
A clergyman's working library is a good measure of the man. In the first four volumes of Lehre und Wehre may be found a series of 22 articles, some of them lengthy, in which Walther discuss the books that he considers essential. He does not say so directly, yet it is implied that these are the books that Walther found most useful in his own sermon preparation. It is a significant fact that his long list of books (most of them in the Latin language), does not contain a single book of sermons other than Luther's Kirchen- und Haus-Postille.
Walther And Church Polity, August R. Suelflow
Walther And Church Polity, August R. Suelflow

When the Saxon immigrants of 1839 elected their spiritual leader, Martin Stephan, their bishop, they adopted the episcopal form of polity. They pledged full obedience to him.
Walther's Letter From Zurich: A Defense Of Missouri's Unity And Confessionalism, Carl S. Meyer
Walther's Letter From Zurich: A Defense Of Missouri's Unity And Confessionalism, Carl S. Meyer
Concordia Theological Monthly
In a formal letter, written from Zurich, Switzerland, on 16 June 1860, Prof. C. F. W. Walther praised the unity existing in the Missouri Synod and defended her confessional theology, which undergirded this unity. The letter was addressed to Prof. Rudolph Lange, Walther's substitute as editor, and was printed in Lehre und Wehre, before Walther's return from Europe. It was a churchman's word of greeting to a host of friends. It is a warm letter. In some respects it is an ordinary letter with references to Walther's personal experiences and emotions. It is also an important theological document, setting forth …

Justification In The Theology Of Walther, Erwin L. Lueker
Justification In The Theology Of Walther, Erwin L. Lueker
Concordia Theological Monthly
"A person who wishes to describe Walther as a theologian must above all explain his position on the doctrine of justification." This view of Pieper is in harmony with Walther's own evaluation of theology.

Luther As Exegete, Douglas Carter
Luther As Exegete, Douglas Carter
Concordia Theological Monthly
In the era of the 16th-century Reformation it was given to Martin Luther to fill a role unique in its range. He was a controversialist who joined issue with the regnant theology of his day; a reformer who brought about such a renewal of the church as many of his contemporaries and predecessors had dreamed of; the reorganizer who changed the ecclesiastical map of Europe; a pastoral administrator; a spiritual director; and a writer of great versatility whose published works run to more than 50,000 pages in the Erlangen edition.

The Historical Background Of "A Brief Statement." (Concluded), Carl S. Meyer
The Historical Background Of "A Brief Statement." (Concluded), Carl S. Meyer
Concordia Theological Monthly
The union negotiations among the Norwegians served to take most of the Norwegian Synod's members out of direct fellowship with the Missourians. The consummation of the Norwegian union seemed, on the other hand, to direct the Ohio and Iowa synods toward each other and possibly toward the Missouri Synod. There were other factors, of course, which tended to bring about a partial temporary amelioration of the animosity between the synods. One of these factors was a series of free conferences held in the early years of the twentieth century.
