The Pastor And Synod, J. W. Behnken Oct 1937

The Pastor And Synod, J. W. Behnken

Concordia Theological Monthly

A synod is not a divine institution, but a voluntary organization. Nowhere is there a Scriptural command that congregations must unite. Of course, we have the Scriptural example, Acts 15, of the first convention of delegates from congregations which assembled at Jerusalem.

The Church And Social Problems, P. E. Kretzmann Sep 1937

The Church And Social Problems, P. E. Kretzmann

Concordia Theological Monthly

There can be no doubt that the chief aim of the Christian Church, in fact the one aim which the Church as such is to pursue, is that assigned to her in the Great Commission, namely, to preach the Gospel of the salvation of men through the mercy of God in Christ to all nations. It was in this sense that John the Baptist performed his ministry, in preaching repentance and remission of sins, in accordance with the prophecy of his aged father: 'Thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare His ways, to give knowledge of …

Approaches To Bible-Study In A Metropolitan Center, A. R. Kretzmann Sep 1937

Approaches To Bible-Study In A Metropolitan Center, A. R. Kretzmann

Concordia Theological Monthly

To many of our people the Bible is a closed book, not because of the difficulty of understanding it, but because the approaches to it, outside of the sermon, have always been rather ponderous and seemingly uninteresting. A fortunate impatience and natural rebellion against such an attitude has caused us to seek new approaches to Bible-study which would be thoroughly dignified and truly enriching. The people who have found the way back to the Scriptures through these approaches have contributed to one of the most heartening experiences of a metropolitan ministry. We are not here in order to defend any …


Outline For Sermon On Chrisitan Education, Paul Koenig Sep 1937

Outline For Sermon On Chrisitan Education, Paul Koenig

Concordia Theological Monthly

"Is the young man safe?" That was the anxious Iinquiry of a worried father. Is the young man or woman safe? Are the children safe? This should be the anxious question of the Church. "Whether or not they are safe, what will become of them later in life, depends to a very great extent on what we do for them during their childhood days, upon the training we give them.” Much emphasis is laid in our country on education. One out of every four persons is said to be enrolled in quest of some form of education.

Modern Psychiatry And The Bible, H. D. Mensing Aug 1937

Modern Psychiatry And The Bible, H. D. Mensing

Concordia Theological Monthly

A discussion of modem psychiatry and the Bible in the compass of our allotted space cannot pretend to be exhaustive, but must of necessity be a mere sketch, touching here and there the points that seem of special interest for our purpose. We shall, in fact, limit ourselves to the discussion of current technical terms and then, as we proceed, stop to examine some of the problems as they come within the sphere of our observation. The very nature of our subject-matter must preclude any dogmatic statements, except where a statement of Holy Scripture is not concerned; for psychology with …

The Pastor And Youth;, O. P. Kretzmann Aug 1937

The Pastor And Youth;, O. P. Kretzmann

Concordia Theological Monthly

At any given moment in his ministry the pastor in active congregational service is face to face with three age groups. A local church is a cross-section of the family of God. There are the old, for whom the ministrations of the servant of the Word are largely a preparation for a near eternity. There are the middle-aged who must be carried through sorrow and defeat even though their religious habits and attitudes have been fixed by the years. And there are the young, at one and the same time a very precious and a very unstable part of the …

The Pastor And Intracongreptional Organizations, W. E. Hohenstein Jul 1937

The Pastor And Intracongreptional Organizations, W. E. Hohenstein

Concordia Theological Monthly

Little has been written on the history of intracongregational societies, except with reference to young people's societies. The ladies' aid is the oldest society within the congregations of our synodical organization. Then follows the young people's society (or societies) and, more recently, the men's club. Some congregations with parish-schools have a parent-teachers' organization and in connection with it a preschool mothers' circle.

The Pastor And Mission Opportunities, Arthur Brunn Jun 1937

The Pastor And Mission Opportunities, Arthur Brunn

Concordia Theological Monthly

Have we become guilty of introducing faulty terminology by speaking of a certain group of pastors as "missionary pastors"? The impression seems to be abroad among us that missionary pastors are the men who are working in parishes under the supervision and control of some mission board. We speak of so many mission-stations. A given synodical District lists so many missionaries at work in the Home Mission field. Synod has so many missionary in the Foreign Mission field. These are the "missionary pastors." However, the pastor of old St. John's on Foch Boulevard is not a missionary pastor. His church …

The Pastor And Religious Education, Paul Koenig May 1937

The Pastor And Religious Education, Paul Koenig

Concordia Theological Monthly

God’s Word is by no means silent on the subject of religious or Christian education. The pages of that Holy Book abound in references to one of the greatest tasks of the Church of Jesus Christ and her members. Not only did the Lord of the Church in His Great Commission make it incumbent on His disciples to "teach them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you"; not only has He given the means for the teaching, viz., His holy Word; not only has He set forth aims of such teaching efforts in unmistakable terms; but He has …
