Book Description
Excerpt from The Lutheran Quarterly, 1899, Vol. 29 Fore there has been any application or use of these means: It is contrary to the teaching of Lutheran theology as to bap tismal grace itself - placing before baptism the great grace of faith which that theology declares to be sought tfirougk bap tismal grace. And the assumption of personal faith in an um conscious babe is explicitly excluded by the steady confessional of faith, as, necessarily involving a knowledge of the gospel truths and promises and a trusting intelligent acceptance of them. Our examination has further shown that there never was any real necessity for the introduction of the idea of child faith, as Lutheran theology has had from the beginning and apart from this idea a full evangelical basis for infant baptism in the office, given by the everlasting to the parental faith in the divinely established solidarity of the family organ ism. God has provided the faith that is to cover and act for the unconscious life and its interests among his people, in a clear covenan't order that, without fiction, seals, through baptism, as in place of circumcision, the righteousness of faith to the ih fantile life in the believing family and Church.

Excerpt from The Lutheran Quarterly, 1889, Vol. 19 What this is we Shall have occasion to illustrate as our discus Sion proceeds on its way. For the present, here and now, we are duly signalled of alarm ln the very. Dangerous position, that matters so vital Should be made to rest ultimately on a subject ive test. The central facts of the religion of Jesus, the incarna tion, miracle, sacrificial suffering, the resurrection from the dead -these are matters of alleged historical happening, and must be authenticated by literary monuments of unquestioned verac ity and date. But now if we weary of this, and think by some introspective Short-cut to settle the truth of the whole thing, resting it on some doubtful movement of the emotional nature of man, which is wont, .indeed, to render just such verdicts as the peculiar biases and prejudices of the moment may require, then must all stable mooring for rational religious conviction be despaired of, and fanaticism spread rampant over the whole field. If the great supernatural facts of the Christian revelation are to be authenticated finally by some assuring oracle answering back from the religious consciousness of the race, and not by a first and last appeal to accredited witnesses of the events-then the door is opened wide for imposture, and the presumption is that Christianity is but legend clinging with undue tenacity to its old familiar haunts.

Excerpt from The Lutheran Quarterly, 1896, Vol. 26 The pulpit is preeminently a Christian institution. Before its appearance in the' Christian Church its place and power were unknown. Neither philosopher nor philanthropist, neither pro phet nor reformer knew its legitimate use. Public addresses and impassioned appeals were indeed not uncommon, but we no where find the appointment of an order of men, and the desig nation of a specific time for the elucidation and enforcement of a system of doctrine and worship. The results of an eighteen century experiment are now before the world and challenge ex amination. Of the Wisdom of this appointment and the perma nency of its influence there can be no question. In place as well as in purpose the founder of our faith is infallible. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Lutheran Quarterly, 1891, Vol. 21 A similar result needs to be achieved by the Church, today, in regard to the latent yet mighty moral forces which lie hidden within herself. Just as in the natural world there lay, for cen turies, unutilized, the material forces which are chief factors in all our grand modern physical science and civilization, so in the Church there exist moral and spiritual forces, talents, energies, capacities, in great variety and abundance, which, if only wisely and earnestly utilized, would multiply, beyond our highest im agining, her moral power and influence in the world, and would secure for her a rapid and amazing development both innum bers and in piety.

Excerpt from The Lutheran Quarterly, 1888, Vol. 18 This remarkable book is the outgrowth of a feeling widely prevalent in qur day, that the whole subject of God's revelation of himself to men, and specifically the revelation alleged to have been incarnate in Christ, should undergo revision, and be-lifted to such altitude of advantage as the wondrously increased knowl edge of our time will admit. Old methods, and the earlier apol ogetic conceptions, are felt to be somewhat outgrown, especially when confronted with a species of skepticism which boasts itself of new and decisive tests, and sets itself uf) as the very mouth piece of the latest deliverances of science shutting the knowl edge of God forever from men.

Excerpt from The Lutheran Quarterly, 1887, Vol. 17 It was platq, who first enunciated the doctrine of absolute beauty, of beauty, that is, in its far-off aboriginal source. That poet-philosopher meditated every deepest subject of human re search in a halo of beauty; and it may be said of him that de spite his crotchet against the fine arts, the aesthetic glory of the Greek mind rose to its zenith in him. He saw, as we all now steadily see, notwithstanding persistent attempts in certain quarters to disturb this conviction, that the universe is every where wrapped round with a photosphere of beauty; that all being is pervaded by it; and that it has its primitive sources in the very essenee-of things.
