Walther's Letter From Zurich: A Defense Of Missouri's Unity And Confessionalism, Carl S. Meyer Oct 1961

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 …

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.

The Distinction Between Law And Gospel, Robert C. Schultz Oct 1961

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's Editorial In The First Issue Of Der Lutheraner, Alex W. Guebert Oct 1961

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.

Luther As Exegete, Douglas Carter Sep 1961

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 Sep 1961

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.

The Historical Background Of "A Brief Statement." (Continued), Carl S. Meyer

Concordia Theological Monthly

Important as are the major theological movements in America and Germany between 1887 and 1932 for an understanding of the Middle Period of the history of the Missouri Synod, even more important are the movements within Lutheranism in America during this time. These movements, to state the self-evident, have their roots in previous periods. Without an understanding of these movements, however, the doctrinal formulations of the Missouri Synod, especially of A Brief Statement cannot be understood adequately.

The Paperback In The Pew, Donald L. Duffner Aug 1961

The Paperback In The Pew, Donald L. Duffner

Concordia Theological Monthly

To understand contemporary man that we might better reach him with the kerygma, we do well to listen to his spokesmen. A. L. Kershaw points out the need to listen to the "sensitive spirits" among the contemporary poets, novelists, playwrights, artists, and composers of the day, who, he avers, "have been far more sensitive to the judgment of God on the hollowness of our life and society than have the majority of religious leaders."

The Historical Background Of "A Brief Statement.", Carl S. Meyer Jul 1961

The Historical Background Of "A Brief Statement.", Carl S. Meyer

Concordia Theological Monthly

A Brief Statement of the Doctrinal Position of the Evangelical Lutheran Synod of Missouri, Ohio, and Other States, adopted in 1932, is a product of the Middle Period in the history of that church. It reflects the theological concerns of that church body at that time and is conditioned by the relationships between the Missouri Synod and other Lutheran bodies during that period. Only to a lesser degree does it deal with general contemporary theological issues.

Three Words In Our Worship: Devotional Reflections, Arthur Carl Piepkorn Jul 1961

Three Words In Our Worship: Devotional Reflections, Arthur Carl Piepkorn

Concordia Theological Monthly

Hosanna is one of three words - the other two are Alleluia and Amen - that the church has taken over from the Hebrew into her worship in mere transliteration and without translation, as a frank and unabashed witness to her roots in the Israel of which she herself has become the successor under the New Covenant.

Luther Research In America 1900-1960, Walter Tillmanns Jun 1961

Luther Research In America 1900-1960, Walter Tillmanns

Doctor of Theology Dissertation

The objectives of this study are to present a detailed overview of the three types of Luther research in America, the Protestant, the Roman Catholic, and the Lutheran, and then to evaluate this research. A Lutheran evaluation of this research must of necessity be Lutheran, but an attempt will be made to be fair in this evaluation to all. In other words, the assumption is that there has been progress in Luther research in America and that in spite of the ups and downs, conditioned by two World Wars and religious and philosophical prejudices, there is a deeper understanding of …

Communism, The Deadly Enemy Of The Christian Church Today A Fulfillment Of Revelation, Robert Otto Maschke Jun 1961

Communism, The Deadly Enemy Of The Christian Church Today A Fulfillment Of Revelation, Robert Otto Maschke

Bachelor of Divinity

The thesis will show that Communism is the most vicious and destructive power against the Church today. This paper will not, however, enter into a detailed discussion of the economic proposals and principles of Marx, Engels, or Lenin, but shall restrict itself to the spiritual field, as St. Paul said, "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. " (Eph. 6:12) This paper does not attempt to be a commentary on the whole of Revelation. It will concern itself with …

The History And Function Of Trailer Missions In The Lutheran Church--Missouri Synod, Roy A. Maack Jun 1961

The History And Function Of Trailer Missions In The Lutheran Church--Missouri Synod, Roy A. Maack

Bachelor of Divinity

A hundred years ago our pioneer missionaries in Michigan used the speediest means at their disposal to spread the Gospel--the pony and the buckboard. Later our missionaries were among the first passengers pulled by the “iron horse” as it gradually blazed a trail westward over the Rockies and to the West Coast. During and for a few years after World War II, our Church preached that same Gospel in the same way, using the modem means of a trailer. The special purpose of open air evangelism by means of trailer missions was to bring the story of the love of …

Bachelor of Divinity

Although there are many errors in the teachings of the Little Flock, the baptism performed by the group should be accepted as valid and re-baptism should not be required before admittance for membership in the Lutheran Church.

The Protestant Church And Segregration, Karl Thiele

Bachelor of Divinity

It is the purpose of this study to investigate the factors in our society, secular and religious that have contributed to and maintained the paradox and thus make it possible for us to better be able to eliminate this absurdity. Needless to say, it is impossible to discuss all the factors relating to this paradox, but those factors affecting and primarily related to the church are treated.
