The Doctrine Of The Humanity Of Christ According To The Epistle To The Hebrews, Carl Miller

Bachelor of Divinity

To illustrate: if there are five passages that all bring out point "A" of the pre-determined outline of the doctrine, it is not necessary to treat all five passages just to show that point "A" is covered in the epistle. If this procedure seems somewhat arbitrary, we state again that the purpose of this thesis is merely to show how completely the doctrine of Christ's humanity has been revealed in the epistle to the Hebrews.

The Evangelistic Methods Of Dwight L. Moody, Richard F. Wagner

Bachelor of Divinity

There is always a human side to every spiritual movement. It shall be the purpose of this thesis to discover the human side of Dwight L. Moody in relation to the methods which he used in his evangelistic activity. The word "evangelistic" in this thesis title means: that which pertains to winning others “to Christian discipleship”. The word “method” means: the devices, plans, procedures which are used in the dissemination of the Gospel; therefore, this thesis will concern itself with devices, plans, and procedures which were used by Dwight L. Moody to win others to Christian discipleship.

The Social Ethics Of St Paul With Implications For Marriage And The Family, Walter Fisher

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

In this paper it is our intention to confine ourselves to a treatment of St. Paul’s social ethics. He has a great deal to say on this subject. We shall first of all develop the principles of his social message in general, and then confine ourselves to the implications of these principles for the basic social institution as we see what he has to say about marriage and the family.

The Brethren Of The Lord And Their Relation To Jesus, Norman Wangerin

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

It is my purpose to examine these various hypotheses in the light of tradition and Scripture. Thus the theories themselves will first be discussed briefly. Next they will be examined on the basis of the references to this problem in the literature of the early Church. Finally, the Scripture passages which have a bearing on the subject will be taken up. The correct interpretation of these passages is after all the real key to the problem.

The Adaptaton Of Monasticism To Meet The Exigencies Of The Times, George Robbert

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

We have all heard of the various Orders in the Catholic Church such as the Benedictines, Franciscans, Dominicans, Society of Jesus, Knight Templars and Knights Hospitalers. How and why did they originate? What brought them into existence? These questions we will take up in this paper, showing the needs of the times which were met or were supposed to be met through the Monastic Orders we have just mentioned.

The Authorship Of The Fourth Gospel In Present-Day Thought, Walter Heyne

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

It ls the purpose of this paper to explore recent literature to ascertain the prevailing views on this subject. The available English and German literature which has appeared since approximately 1915 has been surveyed to determine mainly this one thing: What is the current thinking on the subject of the authorship of John’s Gospel? In this sense, this is largely a statistical study, and no particular effort has been made to distinguish between the authority and scholarship of those whose opinion are presented. The date 1915 was selected as the terminus a quo since the second decade of our century …

The Ending Of St Mark's Gospel A Study In Textual Criticism, Henry Hamann

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

The writer, rather immodestly it may be held, can -not accept the principles enunciated by WH .and accepted by many textual critics since, and accordingly a rather large section of the present study is given over to a critical-analysis of the principles of WH and the formulation of· other critical principles, which form the foundation upon which the real work is raised.

The Typological Method Of Biblical Interpretation: An Investigation, Willard Burce

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

It was the original object of this study to investigate these three questions. The subject is very large, however. It. seems more salutary to deal for the first with the history of typology and to see how exegetes of the Church down through the years have faced the problems of understanding and discussing types.

The Religious Beliefs And Practices Of The Ancient Slavs, George Dolak

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

The religion of the pagan Slavs seems to have been a purely domestic religion with the idea of a state religion not entering into the S1avic concept of one’s relation to the supreme being. The religion of the early Slavs has also been characterized as of the non-fanatical type. It is a question as to whether such a statement permits of a broad application. As a matter of fact Orloff limits it to the religion or the Southern Slavs maintaining that it was of a purer kind than the Scandinavian or that of the northwestern Slavs.

An Interpretation Of The Epistle Of St. Jude, William Hassold

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

Luther's attitude towards the letter of Jude, as he himself says, was influenced by three factors: 1) its close resemblance to part of 2 Peter; 2) its use of material found nowhere else in Scripture; 3) its rejection by many of the Church fathers. We shall have to consider each of these matters in formulating our opinion of the letter of Jude.

In Christ Jesus An Approach To The Ε̂ŴΜα Τoȗ Χειδτοȗ Concept Through The Pauline Use Of The E’V Xeidtω̑ Formula, Walter Bartling

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

All modern studies of' the ’ΕνΧειδτοȗ formula have as their starting point the fascinating dissertation of Adolf Deissmann, which appeared in 1892. It is hardly possible to overestimate the influence this book has had upon research in Pauline theology, not only upon study of the problem to which it is immediately directed, but especially also upon inquiries into the nature of Pauline "mysticism". Its influence on interpreters of the δ̂wμαΧειδτοȗ concept will become apparent as we proceed somewhat atlength to present Deissmann’s argument. All modern studies of' the ’Εν Χειδτοȗ formula have as their starting point the fascinating dissertation of …

An Analysis Of The Use Of Folk Materials In The Works Of Stephen Vincent Benét, Dodd Vernon

English Language and Literature ETDs

The problem undertaken by this study is an investigation of the use of folk materials by Benét, and the values to be observed in such a use. From the evidence to be assembled here, it is hoped to create firmer ground for a final estimate of that author's worth. It is a problem which does not call for an analysis of the writer's entire range of powers, or his lack of them. It does, however, seek to contribute something in one particular field which otherwise might, for a time, be overlooked.

A Chapter In The History Of Orange County, Virginia, William Livingston Kirby

Master's Theses

In 1753 Orange County could hardly have still been oalled a frontier region, but its society remained like that of the more exposed communities to the west for some time. It was neither overpopulated nor was the land intensively cultivated. The flora and fauna had hardly been affected, and wolves frequently howling at night reminded the inhabitants that the job of taming their environment was yet unfinished. These wolves were suffi­ ciently destruotive to demand bounties, and many farmers, planters and. gentlemen eked out their income by presenting the head of a wolf to the sheriff, who paid a hundred …

The Spanish Civil War, 1936-1939, As Interpreted By The New York Times Versus The London Times, Eugene W. Laurent

History ETDs

The Purpose of this study is to determine the attitudes expressed in The New York Times of January 1, 1936, to July 1, 1937, as compared with those of The London Times of the same dates, regarding three major aspects of the Spanish Civil War, 1936-1939. Following a brief account of the historical events of the preceding years, from the beginning of the dictatorship in September, 1923, to the outbreak of the civil war in July, 1936, are the major problems: the causes of the war, the internal affairs of Spain as factors in the conflict, and the international politics …

The Civil War Diary Of John A. Blair, John Alan Blair

History ETDs

Although the Civil War Diary of John A. Blair does not shed new light on the cataclysmic events of the war, it, however, contributes a picture emanating from scenes of troubled times in the life and times in the United States.

The diary reflects impressions felt by this Southern officer in his 30th year, of actions in an area and in a period upon which the eyes of the world were focused, and which historians have long attempted to understand. His viewpoints are those of a patriotic Southern soldier who saw righteousness in the cause of the Confederacy and shared …

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

During the last half of the nineteenth century, novels, short stories, articles and poems written by John William De Forest appeared in the pages of such popular magazines as Harper's, The Atlantic Monthly, and The Galaxy, along with literary contributions from Mark Twain, Whittier, Longfellow.
