Atheistic Propaganda In Our Country, John Theodore Mueller

Concordia Theological Monthly

Dreary though it may be, the subject of atheistic propaganda in our country nevertheless demands conscientious study, especially by our pastors and all who are directly interested in the young people of our Church in order that ways and means may be found to safeguard their spiritual welfare, in particular while they are attending colleges and universities.

Only a short time ago we were horrified by the blasphemies of agnostic Modernists. To-day, however, we are facing a foe that is even more treacherous and pernicious. Modernism, with all its vagaries, at least endeavored to preserve some kind of religion and …

Religious Education In Mission-Shools In China, Fr E. Brandt

Concordia Theological Monthly

The question of religious education in mission-schools in China has again become very acute. In fact, it has reached a crisis. The present regulations touching religious instruction in elementary and middle schools are as follows: "A private school founded by a religious body is not permitted to give religion as a required subject, nor is religious propaganda permitted in the class instruction. If there are any religious exercises, students shall not be compelled or enticed to participate. No religious exercises shall be allowed in primary schools.'' (Chap.1, Art. 5.)

Pastoral Visits, F C. Streufert

Concordia Theological Monthly

One of the saddest duties of o pastor is to minister to the spiritual needs of such of his members as are confined in penal institutions. We all agree that these unfortunates are in particular need of our spiritual ministrations. Such visits afford us on opportunity to speak not only of sin and its fearful consequences, but also of God's unending love and of Christ, our Savior and Redeemer. The prisoner behind the bars has had many hours, in many instances oven days and years, for reflection. Quite frequently his former friends and even the relatives have severed all connections …

Clerical Vestments In The Lutheran Church, P E. Kretzmann

Concordia Theological Monthly

The Lutheran Church has a wonderful liturgical heritage. Because it is the true Church of the Reformation, it did not resort to unmotivated iconoclasm, preferring, instead, to reform conditions, customs, and usages, cleansing them from additional and incidental impure features and thus preserving the historical and liturgical continuity which is bound to have at least a confessional value.

The Lutheran churches of this country have during the last decades remembered this liturgical heritage. There has been a decided effort, on the part of many congregations and even of entire Lutheran bodies, to return to the liturgical usages of the period …

The Active Obedience Of Christ, Th Engelder

Concordia Theological Monthly

The vicarious satisfaction rendered by Christ includes, besides His suffering and death, His fulfilment of the divine Law given to man in place of man (loco hominum). In other words, in order to satisfy the divine justice, Christ not only bore the penalty of man's disobedience of the Law, but also rendered in His holy life that obedience to the Law which man is obligated to render, but does not render (active obedience of Christ, obedientia. Christi activa). As our guilt and punishment was imputed to Christ, so also our obligation to keep God's Law , Gal. 8, 13; 4, …

Pastoral Visits, F C. Streufert

Concordia Theological Monthly

We all agree that our visits of patients in hospitals are frequently not so productive as we desire, either because other patients make such, visits difficult or, at times, because of expected ridicule on the part of other patients or visitors, we are too timid in the confession or profession of our faith. But we must not be ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and therefore should most cheerfully and boldly perform our pastoral duty. Such bold presentation of sacred truths of sin and grace, of admonition and of comfort, will strengthen the patient we ore visiting and will …

The Pastor At The Bedside Of The Backslider, F C. Streufert

Concordia Theological Monthly

How difficult it is to perform our duty at the bedsides of such as have turned away from their Savior! It is often difficult to approach them, even if no personal matter between patient and pastor has caused the former to forsake God and His Word. Permit me to present three cases from my own pastoral experience together with my treatment of them.

Does The Bible Teach That Only Christians Of The Apostolic Age Would Possess Miraculous Powers?, W Arndt

Concordia Theological Monthly

The question is frequently asked, Are there Scripture-passages by means of which we can prove that the extraordinary gifts possessed by Christians in apostolic times, like those of healing, prophesying, etc., were intended for, and given to, the Church of early New Testament times only? The reply has to be, There are no such Scripture-passages. Our Lord at various times conferred upon His disciples the power to do miraculous works. The beat-known occasion is one of the meetings which He held with His disciples prior to His ascension. According to Mark He said at that time: "And these signs shall …

Thee Pastor At The Bedside Of The Unbeliever, F C. Streufert

Concordia Theological Monthly

If we are called to the bedside of a patient who has no knowledge of the Word of God, to the bedside of the unbeliever, this is done in most instances not at the request of the patient, but upon the suggestion of one of the family or a friend. It cannot be otherwise. How can any one have a desire to hear concerning Christ of whom he knows nothing and in whom he does not believe. It is a sad fact that many, though they are at death's door, in spite of all are filled with hatred against the …
