Remembering Our Heritage: Studies In Friends Beliefs, Charles S. Ball

Historical Quaker Books

The material in this booklet was first written by Charles S.

In response to many requests that the articles be made available for a wider circulation, the Board of Christian Education of California Yearly Meeting has authorized this reprinting. It is our hope that this material may be of great value as resource material for membership …

Questions About Quakerism, Alexander Purdy

Historical Quaker Books

Quaker Lecture, Indiana Yearly Meeting of Friends, Richmond, Indiana. August 15, 1962.

Excerpt: "It is my purpose to raise and briefly answer some of the many questions asked about the Quakers both by outsiders and insiders, non-Friends and members of the Society. I am, of course, speaking only for myself and not in any official capacity. I shall, however, try to present a Quaker consensus rather than special points of view."

The Theology Of Self-Surrender In The Writings Of E. Stanley Jones, Varghese M. Kattapuram

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

This thesis seeks to grapple with one of the most crucial issues confronting Christian theology today, namely, what to make of the insights and discoveries of the newer disciplines of psychology, psychoanalysis, psychiatry, psychotherapy, etc. For a while psychology proceeded as though theology did not exist or as though it were a remnant of the superstitions of a previous age. However, in recent years psychological practitioners outside the church have shown somewhat greater interest in the religious life of their patients and in the role of religious life of their patients and in the role of religious life and practice …

A Comparative Study Of The Conservative Evangelical View And The Seventh-Day Adventist View Of The Doctrine Of An Intermediate State, Ben O. Taylor

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

The purpose of the study at hand has been twofold: 1) to examine the doctrine of the intermediate state as it is held by Conservative Evangelicals, and 2) by means of comparison and contrast, to exhibit the ways in which the Seventh-Day Adventist position agrees with or differs from the Conservative Evangelical position.

Church Architectural Planning For Evangelical Christian Education, Paul Bullman

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

The church and Christian education are very closely related. The New Testament teaches that the church is the body of Christ. This body is composed of human beings whose lips, hands, and feet are dedicated, by the leading of the Holy Spirit, to the revealing of Christ to the world.l It is the evangelical position that points up the fact that all men are depraved, or incapable of saving themselves. Salvation can only come from the divine miracle of regeneration.

For all "Who hold to this evangelical standard of salvation by regeneration, the true aim of Christian education is two …

A Study Of The New Testament Basis For Christian Unity, Orlin Jackson

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

In contemporary Christianity there is an active potent force. The manifestation of this force is evidenced by various organizations and is known as the ecumenical movement. It is the objective of this movement to seek Christian unity and to make it visible to the world.

In spite of the vast amount of discussion, both past and present, concerning the subject, there is little agreement as to the nature of Christian uni t y. This has been shown in Chapter III of this paper. Therefore, it is the purpose of this study to discover what constitutes the nature of Christian unity, …

An Approach To The Concept Of Biblical Communication As The Core Of Christian Education, Eugene Floyd Kester

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

In the process of genuinely attempting to live and share the Good News of Jesus Christ with an "exploding" contemporary world, some people have become increasingly desperate to know how.

This necessity, they have discovered, is disturbing multitudes of sincere Christians in every walk of life. Many have found themselves turning from one "successful" method to another; while others have "faithfully" held to some favorite or "honored" procedure .

"Heart" (Kardia) In The Doctrine Of Soteriology, Clyde James Zehr

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

The problem under consideration was an investigation of the doctrine of soteriology set forth by conservative evangelical theologians in the light of the New Testament usage of the term "heart" (kardia). The term "heart" (kardia) is a prominent word in the New Testament, especially in the areas referring specifically to sin and salvation from sin. Any doctrine of salvation from sin will, therefore, be greatly influenced and affected by the interpretation placed upon the New Testament writers' meaning of this word. Basically, the problem had three main areas of investigation: first, to determine the scriptural meaning of "heart" (kardia) in …

An Examination Of The Definition Terms Used In The Biblical Doctrine Of The Atonement, Gary L. Minshull

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

Evangelicals have always regarded the Bible as the ultimate source of doctrine as well as morale. This attitude applies, of course, to its teaching on the Atonement of Christ. This scriptural teaching on this subject is described by a number of definitive terms, the meaning of which is crucial to the formulation of a biblical doctrine of the Atonement. These terms, however, have never been studied in a comprehensive manner, and in no case has evidence been presented to show their meaning in relation to each other.

A Comparative Study Of The Conservative Evangelical View And The Seventh-Day Adventist View Of The Doctrine Of An Intermediate State, Ben O. Taylor

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

Belief in an intermediate state has never been wholly absent from religious thought. One purpose of this investigation has been to examine data concerning an intermediate state, and what its nature is. By the expression, intermediate state, is meant the realm or condition in which the souls of men exist from the time of physical death to the resurrection of their bodies.

The Relationship Of Certain Terms To The Doctrine Of Original Sin, Robert L. Smith

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

Mathematicians state that for one to comprehend the Einstein theory of relativity a good knowledge of mathematics and mathematical symbols is necessary. It is impossible to put into words many of the thought and concepts expressed, but Einstein communicated through the use of certain symbols and formulas. When a student in any field begins his study he is soon aware that the amount of mastery he will gain in the area will depend upon his grasp and comprehension of the terminology peculiar to that field of study. It must be discovered what certain terms and thought patterns mean to those …
