Jesus' Encounter With Culture As Evidenced By The Gospel According To Mark, K T. Joykutty

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

Excerpt: "The shackles of sin seem to be overpowering mankind at a much higher potential and speed than the challenge of the truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The dynamic truth of the Gospel which is Jesus Christ Himself, is alarmingly unwelcome in the midst of a highly technologically and materially advanced society. Man is becoming stubbornly impervious to the truth of the Gospel, and is subdued by the potent fetters of a social giant called "Culture." Christians and Christian organizations are no exceptions. The subtle secular culture has surreptitiously found its way into the Christian community. Christian organizations …

The Forerunners Of The Protestant Reformation, Suresh Heraman

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

Excerpt: "This research paper is a study based mainly on the forerunners of the Protestant Reformation in Western Europe from 910 to 1498 A.D. Some consideration is given to the earlier history of the Church, to show the cause for the reforms to follow.

Sources used for the research of this paper are listed in the bibliography. Since this research is historical it has relied on the works of others who have written on the history of the Christian Church. No effort is made to give a history of theology but to discover why the reforms were needed."

What Is The Difference Between The Carnal Nature And The Human Nature? (An Inductive Study Of The New Testament), John Wesley Larson

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

The problem of every Christian is separating in his daily life those things that are considered carnal and those considered human. Is there a way to distinguish between the two? This is the question to be investigated in this research paper. Is there a clear New Testament answer to, "What is the difference between the carnal nature and the human nature?"

This question lies deep in the history of theology. It touches on such subjects as Biblical Anthropology, Christology, Soteriology, and in some way, Eschatology. "

Karl Barth And Evangelism, Gregory G. Bolich

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

All beginnings are hard. Often a beginning is difficult because not enough people perceive its desirability or need. Starting is hard when all things appear new, for the way ahead is unseen. Usually, a vision is necessary. Generally, the foundation of the past is essential. But faith is the sine qua non for an evangelical beginning.

The Importance Of Doctrinal Teaching In Holiness Camp Meetings, David C. Johnson

The Prayer Ministry Of The Apostle Paul, John L. Tien

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

Prayer is an important subject among the biblical teachings. In almost all of the books of the Bible, truths about prayer are mentioned, and actual prayers recorded.

Prayer is also important in the ecclesiastical life. It exists in all of the worships and fellowships among Christians, either in the beginning or at the end of the liturgy, sometimes also in the middle right before the sermon presentation.

Prayer is very important in the life of a Christian. At the time one is saved, he (or she) "calls upon the name of the Lord" through prayer. After he has been saved, …

A Pastor's Guide To Understanding Abortion And Its Theological And Ethical Implications, John Richard Tusant

Babies are God's opinion that the world should go on. Babies are also the life-line for humanity. This continuing life-line proposes certain questions concerning the life and the death of babies as the pastor deals with humanity.

God has created man and woman to reproduce and replenish the earth, as seen in Genesis 9:7. However, the issue that faces society and particularly the pastor is, unwanted infants. The issue of unwanted infants has consequences that will govern the father and mother's thoughts and actions for life.

In the mid 1960 1 s, a new and unique phenomenon began to hit the religious establishment in America.

It is the purpose of this study to trace the development of the Jesus movement on the West Coast from 1965 to 1975.
