The Scriptural Doctrine Of The Atonement With Special Reference To The False Theories Of Atonement, Arnold V. Kuster Jun 1935

The Scriptural Doctrine Of The Atonement With Special Reference To The False Theories Of Atonement, Arnold V. Kuster

Bachelor of Divinity

It is a well known fact that the Lutheran, that is, the scriptural, doctrine of the atonement is being denied and even ridiculed throughout the theological world. Substitute theories have been set up, about whose banners theologians have rallied and continue to rally. Such is the situation which calls forth this study of the scriptural doctrine of the atonement, with special reference to the false theories of atonement.


Notes On Chiliasm, Th. Engelder May 1935

Notes On Chiliasm, Th. Engelder

Concordia Theological Monthly

The doctrine that the saints will be raised from the grave at the beginning of the millennium and the wicked at the end of that period is not found in 1 Thess. 4, 16 and 1 Cor. 15, 23 f., but only in the chiliatic glossaries of these texts. Nor can it be found in Rev. 20,1-8. The chiliasts indeed insist thot this text distinctly teaches it.


Justification In The Old Testament, Fred R. Lammert Apr 1935

Justification In The Old Testament, Fred R. Lammert

Bachelor of Divinity

This topic needs discussion not only because of the value of such study, but also because of the large amount of opposition to the Old Testament at the present time and the immense forces that are directing their efforts to overthrow the Old Testament. On the one hand we have those opponents who because of anti-Semitic fanaticism want to reject the Old Testament from the outset, while on the other hand we meet those who wish to oppose the Old Testament by their own conjectures and thus overthrow it. The latter, negative Bible critics, try to find in the books …


The Doctrine Of Baptism In The Epistles Of St. Paul, Clarence W. Stradtmann Apr 1935

The Doctrine Of Baptism In The Epistles Of St. Paul, Clarence W. Stradtmann

Bachelor of Divinity

When discussing the doctrine of baptism in any New Testament writing we must first come to an agreement on the one point on which an important part of the argument hinges, namely, the exact meaning of the word.


The Deity Of Christ According To The Epistle To The Hebrews, Thomas Coates Apr 1935

The Deity Of Christ According To The Epistle To The Hebrews, Thomas Coates

Bachelor of Divinity

The title and the contents of the Epistle prove that the addressees were Jewish Christians, and the emphasis placed on the temple worship points to the fact that they residents of Palestine, especially of Jerusalem. The letter constitutes a warning to the Jewish Christians to remain steadfast in their adherence to Christ, amid all the vicissitudes of life. They should not relapse into their former mode of worship, naturally meaningful and dear to them as it was, for Christ is the fulfilment of the Old Testament symbolism, and the new covenant is superior to the old. The Epistle was probably …

Notes On Chiliasm, Th. Engelder Apr 1935

Notes On Chiliasm, Th. Engelder

Concordia Theological Monthly

Chiliasm, a mass of confusion, is furthermore a dangerous delusion, which because of its vicious tenets and pernicious influence must be banned from Christian theology. We shall present this matter under three heads.


Notes On Chiliasm, Th. Engelder Mar 1935

Notes On Chiliasm, Th. Engelder

Concordia Theological Monthly

Our pastors, who need to study chiliasm because of the wide and baleful influence this popular delusion is exerting within the Church, will find the larger volume to be a fair sample of the theology of millennialism.

Externalism And Sacramentalism, P. E. Kretzmann Oct 1934

Externalism And Sacramentalism, P. E. Kretzmann

Concordia Theological Monthly

When the worship of God in the Old Testament in the form of so-called public services was first instituted, it had a very simple form. We are told that in the time of Enos men began to call upon the name of the Lord, that is, to proclaim the name of the Lord Jehovah, Gen. 4, 26. This preaching or teaching was clearly a sacramental act, just as the bringing of sacrifices, as in the case of Abel, was a sacrificial act, very likely attended by prayer.


What Is Conscience?, A. W. Meyer Sep 1934

What Is Conscience?, A. W. Meyer

Concordia Theological Monthly

Luther does not offer a clear-cut theoretical definition of conscience, but he speaks very perspicuously on the functions of conscience, and we shall take occasion to quote him repeatedly. Hauff, in his Real- konkordanz, calls conscience "das deutliche Bewusstsein von der sittlichen Guete unserer Gcsinnungen und Handlungcn, den inneren Richter, den jeder im Busen traegt" Standard Dictionary: "Conscience is the activity or faculty by which distinctions are made between the right and wrong in conduct and character." The Schaff- Herzog Encyclopedia defines conscience as "the moral sense of the individual applied to his own conduct."


The Chief Principles Of New Testament Textual Criticism, W. Arndt Aug 1934

The Chief Principles Of New Testament Textual Criticism, W. Arndt

Concordia Theological Monthly

In making the somewhat ambitious attempt of presenting in a brief article an account of the fundamental principles of textual criticism with respect to the New Testament, I am aware that many a reader will find some things not touched on which he would like to see treated; but considerations of space simply make it unavoidable that some material be omitted.


The Diety Of Christ In The Epistle To The Hebrews, Martin Scharlemann Apr 1934

The Diety Of Christ In The Epistle To The Hebrews, Martin Scharlemann

Bachelor of Divinity

The purpose of this thesis shall, therefore, be a twofold one: first, to demonstrate that the Epistle to the Hebrews does teach the Deity of Christ (matter); and, secondly, to show how this truth is taught (manner). That purpose will be executed in a combination of dogmatical and exegetical methods. Exegesis, must furnish the content; Dogmatics the outline. No improvement can be made upon the conventional dogmatical contention that the Deity of Christ is demonstrable from the fact that (1) divine names are applied to Him, that (2) divine attributes are ascribed to Him, that (3) divine works are attributed …


The Concept Of Hope In The New Testament, Oswald W. Mieger Apr 1934

The Concept Of Hope In The New Testament, Oswald W. Mieger

Bachelor of Divinity

We have prefixed this beautiful expression of the Christian’s Hope in full because it delineates the one point which we wish to emphasize in this thesis, namely, that the hope which is truly Christian rests solely upon Christ, and in particular upon the merits of His glorious resurrection from the dead, by virtue of which our hope is of inestimable value and worth. It is a fitting forethought for our consideration of the CONCEPT OF HOPE IN THE NEW TESTAMENT.


A Defense Of Luther Against Edgar A. Mowrer, Theo. Buenger Apr 1934

A Defense Of Luther Against Edgar A. Mowrer, Theo. Buenger

Concordia Theological Monthly

Mowrer does not write very much about the relation of Hitlerism to Church and religion; still he does permit himself a digression on Luther. which is one of the most unfounded and bitter attacks on the Reformer that has come to my attention. It is such a gross misrepresentation of historical truth that it brought doubts into my mind as to the reliability of Mowrer in other matters.


Predestination And Human Responsibility, Theo Graebner Mar 1934

Predestination And Human Responsibility, Theo Graebner

Concordia Theological Monthly

The assertion of an irrational factor in the doctrine of predestination has been the reply of our Church both to the Calvinistic and the synergistic antitheses. Reason is incapable of bridging the gulf between special election and universal grace.

Tertulliani "Apologeticum", M. S. Sommer Nov 1933

Tertulliani "Apologeticum", M. S. Sommer

Concordia Theological Monthly

Tertullian's Apologeticum is justly renowned. It is renowned because of its author, Tertullian, who because of the diction, style, extent, and time of his writings is recognized generally as the father of Church Latin. There is no doubt that later writers, among them men of such importance as St. Augustine, Ambrose, and Cyprian, were influenced by him. Of Cyprian it is said that be called Tertullian simply the teacher. And yet, important as all the writings of Tertullian are, many of them have now lost their claim to the attention of all except the specialist and the historian. But not …

The Validity Of The Sacraments In Reformed Church-Bodies, P. E. Kretzmann Oct 1933

The Validity Of The Sacraments In Reformed Church-Bodies, P. E. Kretzmann

Concordia Theological Monthly

The immediate occasion for the writing of this article is found in an address on "Some Thoughts on the Value of Baptism and the Supper," printed in the Review and Expositor for April, 1933, although a request had also been received for the distinction observed by Lutherans with regard to the Sacraments as observed by the Reformed churches. The address was delivered by J. H. Rushbrooke at the General Assembly of the Australia Baptist Union, and it has a very pronounced polemical point directed against the Lutheran doctrine of the Sacraments.
