The Sola Scriptura With Special Reference To The Denial By The Methodist, Quakers, And Swedenborgians, Harold Merklinger
The Sola Scriptura With Special Reference To The Denial By The Methodist, Quakers, And Swedenborgians, Harold Merklinger
Bachelor of Divinity
The purpose of this paper is once more to establish the doctrine of the Sola Scriptura, to prove that Holy Scripture alone and nothing else can be made the basis of Christian doctrine and practice. Then it will be shown how three of the eighteenth century enthusiastic bodies-the Methodists, Quakers, and Swedenborgians--deviate from this doctrine.
Romanism, Calvinism, And Lutheranism On The Authority Of Scripture, F. E. Mayer
Romanism, Calvinism, And Lutheranism On The Authority Of Scripture, F. E. Mayer
Concordia Theological Monthly
The desire for a large Pan-Protestant union has endeavored to minimize the theological differences between Lutheranism and Calvinism. True, Luther and Calvin had many things in common, e.g., the rejection of Pelagianism and the Roman hierarchical system. But only too often the divergent conceptions of sin and grace, of faith and works, of atonement and justification, of repentance and sanctification, are viewed only as minor differences.
The Norm And Rule Of Doctrine In The Chrisitan Church Before The Reformation, Theo. Dierks
The Norm And Rule Of Doctrine In The Chrisitan Church Before The Reformation, Theo. Dierks
Concordia Theological Monthly
That the Gospel of Christ Crucified is contrary to all worldly wisdom is clearly affirmed by St. Paul in his First Letter to the Corinthians, 1, 18 ff. He therefore warned the Colossians: ''Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ," 2, 8, and speaks of himself as "casting down imaginations and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ," I Cor.10, 8.

Walther, As Christian Theologian, Th. Engelder
Concordia Theological Monthly
Dr. Walther gave undying allegiance to the sola Scriptura. The doctrine of the authority and inspiration of Scripture lay close to his heart. But there was another matter which lay-yes, we may put it thus - still closer. The one thing which he stressed above all things, which he had in view in all his theological work, and in the interest of which he fought so staunchly and persistently for the sola Scriptura, was the Gospel of the grace of God in Christ.

Dr. C. F. W. Walther meant much to his generation. Shortly after his death Dr. F. W. Stellhom wrote: "The Lutheran Church of our country, yea, I may say, of this whole century, owes more to Dr. Walther than to any other single person.'' (Lutherische Kirchenzeitung, June 1, 1887.) The fifty years that have elapsed since his last illness ended his work at the Seminary, on November 3, 1886, have not diminished his influence among us. We have been living on his theology. And the present generation cannot afford to dispense with it. There is a great blessing in store …
Walther The Preacher, J. H. Fritz
Walther The Preacher, J. H. Fritz
Concordia Theological Monthly
One hundred twenty-five years ago, October 15, 1811, Carl Ferdinand Wilhelm Walther was born at Langenchursdorf, Saxony. His father was a minister. His grandfather and great-grandfather also had been ministers in the Lutheran Church. According to his own confession, Walther, living in a rationalistic age, did not learn to know his Savior until he was eighteen years of age. He studied theology at the University of Leipzig, was graduated there in 1833 and, after having been a private tutor, was ordained in 1837 at Braeunsdorf. Joining the Saxon emigrants under Stephan, Walther arrived in St. Louis in 1830. Shortly afterwards …

The Blast That Wrecked The Pope's Power, Theo. Hoyer
Concordia Theological Monthly
Some years ago a writer in the Concordia Theological Monthly (I, 571-581) pointed out that the dynamic of Luther’s Reformation was his clear and powerful preaching of justification by faith alone. By his own experience Luther, by the grace of God, had recognized that the solo fide alone can give positive assurance to the sinner of God's pardon and his own eternal salvation; what he had found he taught and preached to others who were seeking certainty for the eternity beyond the grave and failed to find it in the work-righteousness of the papal teaching; and so Luther became the …

Frederick August Craemer, W. G. Polack
Concordia Theological Monthly
Some time ago, in conversation with one of our retired ministers who had received his theological training under Craemer at Springfield, Craemer was referred to as the "forgotten man of the Missouri Synod." Of course, this is not true of those who know the man who served as the head of our Practical Seminary for over forty years. They have not forgotten him, especially not those who were trained for the ministry by "Onkel” Craemer. Their eyes light up when they think of him, and what they say of him is spoken in a tone of profound love and admiration. …

Recent Archeologlcal Light On Nahum, W. A. Maier
Recent Archeologlcal Light On Nahum, W. A. Maier
Concordia Theological Monthly
Those who investigate the harmony that exists between Nahum’s prophecy and Nineveh's exit from history will be deeply impressed with the truth that the Old Testament prophets were guided, not by Ahnungsvermoegen, that ability to anticipate which keen-minded students of human affairs sometimes show, but by a divinely inspired prophetic genius. The composite picture which secular history draws of the last days of Nineveh shows in many particulars an amazing agreement with Nahum's prophetic delineation.
The Greatness Of Luther's Commentary On Galatians, R. T. Du Brau
The Greatness Of Luther's Commentary On Galatians, R. T. Du Brau
Concordia Theological Monthly
If some theologians and historians declare to have been disappointed with Luther's Galatians, it is because they looked for a commentary more learned and critical than popular. It was not intended to be a critical study in the present philological sense of the term. Nor does the work hold out the slightest shred of comfort to the Modernist. During the stormy years that gave birth to this commentary Luther had too much practical work of prior importance on his hands to find leisure for comparative and critical exegesis.

King Henry Viii Courts Luther, W. Dallmann
King Henry Viii Courts Luther, W. Dallmann
Concordia Theological Monthly
On March 11, 1535, Dr. Barnes, "the king's chaplain and professor of theology," was again in Wittenberg, "treating only- of the second marriage of the king," and trying very hard to get Melanchthon to go to England. Of course, he did not win the Lutherans to approve of the divorce.
Political Contacts Or The Hebrews With Assyria And Babylonia, Alex Heidel
Political Contacts Or The Hebrews With Assyria And Babylonia, Alex Heidel
Concordia Theological Monthly
Olmstead believes Hezekiah realized that Egypt was indeed a broken reed and decided to make his peace with the Assyrian king and therefore sent the above-mentioned tribute to Sennacherib after his return to Nineveh. But is it probable that Hezekiah would pay such a heavy tribute after the Assyrian monarch had been so completely crushed, had evacuated Palestine, and wae now in far-away Nineveh?
Political Contacts Or The Hebrews With Assyria And Babylonia, Alex Heidel
Political Contacts Or The Hebrews With Assyria And Babylonia, Alex Heidel
Concordia Theological Monthly
Ancient Palestine served as a bridge over which passed traders and armies from Egypt on the one hand and from Babylonia and Assyria on the other; and thus the Hebrews repeatedly came in contact with the peoples of the Nile and of the Tigris-Euphrates. These contacts were chiefly of a political, commercial, social, and religious nature. In the present paper it is not our aim to offer a comprehensive treatment of all of them; we shall rather turn aside from all the other phases and focus our attention on the political relations of God's chosen race with the people of …
The Resumption Of Protestantism Under Queen Elizabeth, A O. Gebauer
The Resumption Of Protestantism Under Queen Elizabeth, A O. Gebauer
Bachelor of Divinity
The subject which we are about to discuss is of vital interest to the student of English Church History. If it is important for him to know the early phases and developments of that history reaching down into the Roman period of English History; if it is necessary for him to observe the tendencies, persuasions, and movements during the subsequent centuries; then it is truly essential for him to be acquainted with the lace-work of causes, events, and personalities out of which grew the pattern known to us as the Anglican Church.
Luther, Bucer, And The Wittenberg Concordia, P. E. Kretzmann
Luther, Bucer, And The Wittenberg Concordia, P. E. Kretzmann
Concordia Theological Monthly
May 20 of this year will mark the four-hundredth anniversary of the Wittenberg Concordia, an event which is usually not given the prominence which its significance during a critical period of the Reformation really merits. The occasion deserves attention not only on account of the important positions occupied by the chief participants, Luther, Bugenhagen, Melanchthon, Bucer, Capito, and others, but also on account of the significance of the doctrines concerned in the controversy and the far-reaching influence of the modus operandi employed by the prominent men engaged in the attempt to keep the unity of the spirit in the bond …

Some Contacts Of The Book Of Acts With The Every-Day Life Of Its Age, H. A. Keinath
Concordia Theological Monthly
New Testament Christianity, first garbed in the swaddling-clothes of Semitism, soon exchanged its outward dress for the more practical robes of Hellenism. Jesus of Nazareth was active in a little speck of ground on the edge of the mighty Roman Empire; His language was Aramaic, His disciples were Jews, His contacts and the intellectual atmosphere of the men among whom He moved were chiefly Jewish. Yet within a few years after His resurrection Christianity had gone beyond the sphere of distinctly Jewish surroundings and had begun its mission of world conquest. This explosion immediately required an accommodation in the field …

The First Three Bibles That Entered The Early Life Of Martin Luther, E. A. Brueggemann
Concordia Theological Monthly
He was surprised that the Bible contained more than the Gospel- and the Epistle-lessons of the church-year. He was pleased with the story of Hanna and Samuel. But he had not had before, nor did he have now or for the next two years, any predilection for the Bible. We know of no instance nor occasion during the years of his adolescence when he ever expressed a desire or eagerness to study the Scriptures.

Luther On The Study And Use Of The Ancient Languages, F. V. Painter
Concordia Theological Monthly
Indeed, if the languages were of no practical benefit, we ought still to feel an interest in them as a wonderful gift of God, with which He has now blessed Germany almost beyond all other lands. We do not find many instances in which Satan has fostered them through the universities and cloisters; on the contrary, these institutions have fiercely inveighed, and continue to inveigh, against them.

Luther's Monumental Work: Galatians, R. T. Du Brau
Concordia Theological Monthly
In the year of our Lord 1535, four hundred years ago, Luther published his larger and final Commentary on St. Paul's Epistle to the Galatians after fifteen years of expounding Scripture in general and after an additional fifteen years of expounding Epistola. ad Galatas in particular.

The First Complete Printed English Bible, J. T. Mueller
Concordia Theological Monthly
The publication of the first complete English Bible is certainly an event which we, together with all English-speaking Christians in the world, ought to commemorate with heartfelt rejoicing, renewed dedication to the study of the Bible, and greater consecration to the spread of the Bible in all lands. On the occasion of the quadricentennial of the publication of the first complete German Bible in 1934, Lutherans, commemorating Luther's complete German Bible of 1534, raised a veritable tempest of jubilant excitement throughout the world; and therefore the first appearance of the complete English Bible in the book-markets of the world should …
Babylon, Alex Heidel
Babylon, Alex Heidel
Concordia Theological Monthly
Babylon is one of the oldest and most interesting cities of which we have any knowledge. Not only do secular writers of antiquity speak of it in terms of highest admiration and count it among the wonders of the world, but the sacred records themselves have immortalized the name of this great metropolis, which for centuries radiated culture and civilization to the whole then known world and by whose waters ancient Judah's children hung their harps on the willows and wept because their beloved Jerusalem was no more.

Anglo-Lutheran Relations During The First Two Years Of The Reign Of Edward Vi, Arthur Carl Piepkorn

The Regency Council to whom the affairs of government in England were committed during the minority of Henry’s youthful heir and succcssor, Edward VI, was dominantly pro-Reformation, and Mr. A. F. Pollard is of the opinion "that Henry deliberately sought to smooth the way for the Reformation by handing over the government to a Council committed to its principles."
