Ministry And Future: Contradictions And Hope, Martin E. Marty
Ministry And Future: Contradictions And Hope, Martin E. Marty
Concordia Theological Monthly
Now men celebrate an event in time: traversing the years from Log Cabins to Luther Tower. Apparent contradictions abound: the cabin, a modest and diffident Statement of an exile group. The tower, an ambitious and almost proud statement of a people with a sense of arrival. Men remember both and looking at them together see what they might otherwise have overlooked: the investment of hope in a ministry.

Theological Discussion And The Responsibility Of The Church, Richard L. Jeske
Theological Discussion And The Responsibility Of The Church, Richard L. Jeske
Concordia Theological Monthly
One is easily reminded of the often heard lament during seminary days, ''Why should I have to study about 'Q'? All I want to be is a simple parish pastor!" Sometimes this "simple parish pastor'" who has avoided hard theological work at the seminary emerges as the most vigorous critic of contemporary theology shortly after his graduation.

Homiletics and Exegetical Notes on Matthew 12:1-8
Editorial, Gilbert A. Thiele
Editorial, Gilbert A. Thiele
Concordia Theological Monthly
To some it may seem a bit late in the day to urge that the family and family life are important in the training of Christian children. Others may feel that Oscar E. Feucht's article on the place of the family in the educational work of the church is unnecessary, as though Lutheran families have known this all along and have acted accordingly. There may be still a third group which will see in the publication of this material another part of a conspiracy to downgrade parochial school education, especially as its objectives have to do with the imparting of …
Christianity And Nichiren In Japan, Donald Neiswender
Christianity And Nichiren In Japan, Donald Neiswender
Concordia Theological Monthly
There is a force building up in Japan which has a most threatening aspect, no matter whether one views it from East or West, from the base of the church or the base of communism. The throbbing nationalism of this force is antithetical both to the unity needed among free nations and to the enforced internationalism of communism. And since this force is preeminently a religious force, it must appear terribly anachronistic to a believing and practicing communist who believes that man is outgrowing his need of religion. It is also a heart-breaking phenomenon to behold from the viewpoint of …
Logical Terminology In The Epistles To The Hebrews, Wilhelm C. Linss
Logical Terminology In The Epistles To The Hebrews, Wilhelm C. Linss
Concordia Theological Monthly
It is usually recognized that the author of the Epistle to the Hebrews is presenting an argument for the superiority of Christianity to the religion of the Old Covenant and that he bases this argument on the comparison of the Son of God with the angels and with Moses, on the comparison of the new high priest with the priests of old, and on the comparison of the sanctuary and the sacrifice of the New Covenant with those of the Old. It is furthermore agreed that he uses means of rhetoric to get his point across. Thus Michel says: "In …
The Place Of The Family In The Church's Educational Ministry, Oscar E. Feucht
The Place Of The Family In The Church's Educational Ministry, Oscar E. Feucht
Concordia Theological Monthly
Parents are the child's most potent teachers. They provide the all-important environment. Good manners, good English, love of good books and music, life's ideals, in fact, the whole outlook on the world are developed largely in the home. And so are dislikes and prejudices, religious views as well as political views, habits of going to church, of receiving Holy Communion, of prayer and reading the Bible. The paths which adult feet travel find their origin in childhood, and one way is as likely to be traveled as another, if started upon in the preschool days.

Salvation By Grace: The Heart Of Job's Theology, Alfred Von Rohr Sauer
Salvation By Grace: The Heart Of Job's Theology, Alfred Von Rohr Sauer
Concordia Theological Monthly
God desires that anyone who fears Him and serves Him should do that gratis, for nothing. Serving God for nothing, fearing God for nothing-that is the theme that runs through the Book of Job. In the prologue (Chs. 1-2) the author states that Job was a man who feared God and eschewed evil. The lord also told Satan in the prologue that His servant Job was a man who feared God and shunned wickedness. So Job was considered a pious, God-fearing man; there was no question about that, even Satan conceded that point. The question, however, was this: What was …

The Church In Community Organization, Martin H. Scharlemann

A modern city, H. G. Wells once remarked, looks like '"something that burst an intolerable envelope and splashed." The unsightliness of our urban jungles has grown even worse since, and the process of disintegration runs on apace. The Bureau of the Census estimates that some 135 million Americans now live in metropolitan areas. By the year 2000, it predicts, 80 percent of our 330,000,000 citizens will be a put of our urbanized communities, which are expanding at the rate of 3,000 aces per day. All this goes on without benefit of comprehensive planing in terms of moral and spiritual values.

The Unity Of The Church And Her Worship, Walter E. Buszin
The Unity Of The Church And Her Worship, Walter E. Buszin
Concordia Theological Monthly
To possess a good understanding of the worship of the church one must possess as well an understanding of the doctrine of the church. Both, the church and her worship, are unique; each shares significant characteristics of the other. Both are creations of the Holy Spirit; both are spiritual in their very essence. The church can neither thrive nor exist without worship. Christian worship, on the other hand, is inconceivable without the church. The church is not only the locus operandi of all true Christian worship; it is also the agency of the Holy Spirit and as such prompts the …
Luther Against Erasmus, James I. Packer
Luther Against Erasmus, James I. Packer
Concordia Theological Monthly
On Sept. 6, 1524, Desiderius Erasmus, the foremost literary man of his day, sat in his study writing a letter to a distinguished friend and patron, Henry VIII, King of England. In the course of his letter came the words: ''The die is cast. The little book on free-will has seen the light of day." He was referring to his Diatribe seu collatio de libero arbitrio ("Discussion or Conference Concerning Free Will"), which had been published at Basel five days earlier. He wrote more truly than he knew. The die was now cast indeed. A Rubicon had been crossed, and …
To Know And To Do: A Review Article On Training Children In The Work Of Worship, George W. Hoyer
To Know And To Do: A Review Article On Training Children In The Work Of Worship, George W. Hoyer
Concordia Theological Monthly
Learning How Children Worship is the title of a recent book by Grace W. McGavran. So many things are left unsaid in this book about the God who is to be worshiped and about the tremendous things which that God has done and does to make worship by the children of men possible that the critical theological reader might miss the significance of the major thing which is being said. Miss McGavran poses the question: "Are the children aware of the times of worship and what it should be for them - a conscious effort to enter into the presence …

Preaching And The Recovery Of The Church, Richard R. Caemmerer
Preaching And The Recovery Of The Church, Richard R. Caemmerer
Concordia Theological Monthly
In the first section, we dealt with the language of preaching. Can it be understood? Does God speak and act in it? In the second we dealt with the method of finding and conveying Biblical truth in preaching. Have current Biblical studies a contribution to make to the pastor as he sets about on his task of preparing and delivering sermons? The third article does not turn away from these questions and processes, but it locates them in their setting: the Christian church. Ours is a time of rediscovery of the meaning of the church.

The Use Of The Exodus In Interpreting History, Elaine Marie Prevallet
The Use Of The Exodus In Interpreting History, Elaine Marie Prevallet
Concordia Theological Monthly
Our study takes the complex of traditions grouped around the exodus as its point of departure. We shall consider the use made of this event at four stages in Israel's history and attempt to determine two factors: (1) whether the prophetic interpretation of the exodus event at a given period in Israel's history has been shaped by the historical situation and (2) whether the exodus event is used to interpret the historical situation. Finally, we may be able to draw some conclusions relative both to the Israelite view and use of history.

The New Hermeneutic And Preaching, Richard R. Caemmerer
The New Hermeneutic And Preaching, Richard R. Caemmerer
Concordia Theological Monthly
The first unit in this series discussed the implications for Christian preaching of current studies in the philosophy and theology of language, studies which are usually identified by some such term as linguistic analysis and connected with names like Ian Ramsey and Frederick Ferré As we now turn to the contemporary study of the Sacred Scriptures, we do not make a clean break with the preceding discussion. The Biblical studies reveal the dominant question: What is the language of faith? The purpose of this review, however, is not to analyze the field of Biblical studies in general but to assess …
