While the Apostle John states the purpose of the Gospel bearing his name in John 20:30–31, disagreement exists regarding the under- standing of these verses. In the paper, “The Purpose of the Gospel of John According to John 20:30–31,” Dr. Michael K. Smith reviews how these verses have been interpreted, evaluates these interpretations, and analyzes the verses themselves. Dr. Smith teaches New Testament studies at Bethany Lutheran Theological Seminary, Mankato, Minnesota. As pastors, we face a variety of situations, issues, and problems in our parishes. Taking the life-giving Word and applying it to these many situations, issues, and problems is a challenging task for the pastor as Seelsorger. With this in mind, and also considering the upcoming five-hundredth anniversary of the Reformation, it is worthwhile to consider the pastoral practices that were established and practiced in the Reformation—pastoral practices that remain established and are to be practiced among us still today. This is the point of the essay “Pastoral Care Today Drawn from Luther the Seelsorger” by the Rev. Luke Ulrich, pastor of Mount Olive Lutheran Church in Mankato, Minnesota. 290 Lutheran Synod Quarterly Vol. 56 The next essay provides an interesting and thorough presentation of the doctrine of adiaphora, which refers to things that are neither commanded nor prohibited in Holy Scripture. In this discussion, care must be taken so that the church is not led into legalism or indifference. In addition, this confessional truth must be maintained: Nothing is an adiaphoron when confession and offense are involved. The Rev. Christian Eisenbeis explores these important issues in his essay “We Are Free to Serve.” Pastor Eisenbeis serves First Trinity Lutheran Church in Marinette, Wisconsin. God hid Himself in the suffering and death of the cross so that we might know His love. In the Heidelberg Disputation Luther insists, “He who does not know Christ does not know God hidden in suffering…. God can be found only in suffering and the cross” (LW 31:53). This is the theology of the cross which is the heart and core of the Scripture, as St. Paul writes, “For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified” (1 Corinthians 2:2). Luther explicates the biblical doctrine of the theology of the cross in the Heidelberg Disputation. The Rev. Robert Harting summarizes this important doctrine in his essay “Pastors of the Cross: A Review of the Heidelberg Disputation of 1518 with Applications for the Pastor.” The Rev. Robert Harting is pastor of Richland Lutheran Church in Thornton and Prince of Peace Lutheran Church in Mason City, Iowa. Most confessional Lutherans today are better acquainted with the history of the “Old Lutheran” immigrations and the history of midwestern Lutheranism than the history of Lutheranism in the eastern part of our country. The essay, “The American Recension of the Augsburg Confession and its Lessons for Our Pastors Today,” gives the history of the struggle for confessional Lutheranism among eastern Lutherans. Individuals such as the Henkels and Charles Porterfield Krauth made a valiant stand for the confessional writings of the Evangelical Lutheran Church. The writer of this essay is the Rev. David Jay Webber, who is pastor of Redeemer Lutheran Church in Scottsdale, Arizona. Also included in this Quarterly a review of the book All Glory to God. – GRS Presidential Quotes From the Past LSQ Vol. 56, No. 4 (December 2016) RUTH CANNOT BE COMPROMISED. AND WHY not? Because it is in its very nature unalterable. You may seek to get away from it by subterfuge, but you will only be led into Tblind alleys, whence there is no escape. Try to write the biography of that child begotten in 1917, and which fittingly bears the name “The Norwegian Lutheran Merger,” and you will not have to go very far in the records before you discover its illegitimacy. To call H.A. Preus, J.A. Ottesen, and U.V. Koren your spiritual forebears, while you also want an Elling Eielsen, a C.L. Clausen, an F.A. Schmidt and a B.J. Muus to be listed in that category, will simply not do. You may erect massive monuments in honor of our sainted fathers and write glowing tributes in praise of their noble work, but it will be but a mockery to their very memory if their principles be trampled into the dust. Excerpt from Norman A. Madson, “President’s Message,” Synod Report 1943:10. 292 Lutheran Synod Quarterly Vol. 56 The Purpose of the Gospel of John According to John 20:30–31 Michael K. Smith Professor, Bethany Lutheran Theological Seminary Mankato, Minnesota LSQ Vol. 56, No. 4 (December 2016) F THE FOUR CANONICAL GOSPELS OF THE NEW Testament, the Gospel “According to John” (ΚΑΤΑ ΙΩΑΝΝΗΝ) includes the clearest statement of its purpose: “Therefore many Oother signs Jesus did in the presence of [his] disciples, which are not written in this book; but these have been written in order that you may believe that the Christ, the Son of God, is Jesus, and that by believing you may have life in his name” (John 20:30–31).1 Considering such an ostensibly clear statement, consensus on the precise purpose of John’s Gospel does not seem to exist. This paper will seek to illuminate the topic of the purpose of John’s Gospel according to John 20:30–31 by describing briefly some of the more important interpretations of this passage, analyzing the passage itself and a few other pertinent ques- tions, and critically evaluating the interpretations given at the beginning of the paper. Interpretations of John 20:30–31 As stated above, John 20:30–31 is interpreted in various ways.2 D.A. Carson’s initial interpretation of these verses focuses on two key elements: the tense of πιστεύ[σ]ητε (aorist or present [subjunctive]), and the subject of the final clause ( Jesus or Christ). He states that those who 1 Author’s translation. 2 For a cogent summary of the history of the interpretation of the purpose of John’s Gospel in the twentieth century, see D.A. Carson and Douglas J. Moo, An Introduction to the New Testament, 2nd edition (Grand Rapids: Zondervan, 2005), 268–273.

IS HOPEFULLY DEDICATED. PREFACE TO SECOND EDITION. A SECOND edition of this work has been called for more speedily than we expected. For this we are grateful. It shows that there was a need for such a work, and that this need has been met. The book has been received with far greater favor, in all parts of our Church, than we had dared to hope. While there have been differences of opinion on certain points—which was to be expected— there have been no serious criticisms. This new edition is not a revision, but a reprint. In only two places has the text been corrected. On page 7 of the Introduction we have added a foot­ note, because the blunt statement of the text was liable to be misunderstood.

George Fry It has always struck me as strangely appropriate that the Protestant Reformation and the discovery of America occurred simultaneously. When Martin Luther was nine, Christopher Columbus landed in the Bahamas; in 15 19, while he debated Dr. John Eck at Leipzig, a fellow-subject of Emperor Charles V, Hernando Cortez, began the conquest of Mexico. Philip Melanc ht hon, the "Great Confessor," was com.posing the Augustana at about the time Francisco Pizarro was occupying the Inca Empire in Peru. By the time of Melancht hon's death in 1560, the Americas had been opened up to European settlement. A related theme of equal interest is that of the American dis- covery of the Reformation. Or, more properly, the recovery by Lutherans in the United States of the history and theology of the Reformers.

    The Doctrine of the Church and Its Ministry According to the Evangelical Lutheran Synod of the Usa

    THE DOCTRINE OF THE CHURCH AND ITS MINISTRY ACCORDING TO THE EVANGELICAL LUTHERAN SYNOD OF THE USA by KARL EDWIN KUENZEL Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF THEOLOGY In the subject SYSTEMATIC THEOLOGY at the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA PROMOTER: PROFESSOR ERASMUS VAN NIEKERK November 2006 ii Summary Nothing has influenced and affected the Lutheran Church in the U.S.A. in the past century more than the doctrine of the Church and its Ministry. When the first Norwegian immigrants entered the U.S. in the middle of the 19th century, there were not enough Lutheran pastors to minister to the spiritual needs of the people. Some of these immigrants resorted to a practice that had been used in Norway, that of using lay-preachers. This created problems because of a lack of proper theological training. The result was the teaching of false doctrine. Some thought more highly of the lay-preachers than they did of the ordained clergy. Consequently clergy were often viewed with a discerning eye and even despised. This was one of the earliest struggles within the Norwegian Synod. Further controversies involved whether the local congregation is the only form in which the church exists. Another facet of the controversy involves whether or not the ministry includes only the pastoral office; whether or not only ordained clergy do the ministry; whether teachers in the Lutheran schools are involved in the ministry; and whether or not any Christian can participate in the public ministry. Is a missionary, who serves on behalf of the entire church body, a pastor? If only the local congregation can call a pastor, then a missionary cannot be a pastor because he serves the entire church body in establishing new congregations.

    Hans Nielsen Hauge: a Catalyst of Literacy in Norway

    NB! This is the final manuscript. In the published version there are changes in litterature and notes. HANS NIELSEN HAUGE: A CATALYST OF LITERACY IN NORWAY Linda Haukland, University of Nordland In this article, I examine the role Hans Nielsen Hauge (1771–1824) played in encouraging literacy in the Norwegian peasant society in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, an aspect of his ministry never before discussed. This poorly educated son of a peasant broke the unwritten rule of never publishing texts for a large readership without the necessary educational skills. Thus he opened up a new literate space where the common person could express him- or herself on paper. Hauge printed around 40 different texts, 14 of them books, in a language the peasants could understand. This inspired his followers not only to read, but also to write, mainly letters to Hauge and to Haugeans in other parts of Norway. Some even became authors. Women played a central role in this wave of literacy spreading throughout the country. Based on Hauge’s original texts, I present some crucial aspects of his mentality and show how his ministry served as a catalyst to the growth of literacy among peasants during the period. NB! This is the final manuscript. In the published version there are changes in litterature and notes.

    Charles Porterfield Krauth: the American Chemnitz

    The 37th Annual Reformation Lectures Reformation Legacy on American Soil Bethany Lutheran College S. C. Ylvisaker Fine Arts Center Mankato, Minnesota October 28-29, 2004 Lecture Number Three: Charles Porterfield Krauth: The American Chemnitz The Rev. Prof. David Jay Webber Ternopil’, Ukraine Introduction C. F. W. Walther, the great nineteenth-century German-American churchman, has some- times been dubbed by his admirers “the American Luther.”1 While all comparisons of this nature have their limitations, there is a lot of truth in this appellation. Walther’s temperament, his lead- ership qualities, and especially his theological convictions would lend legitimacy to such a de- scription. Similarly, we would like to suggest that Charles Porterfield Krauth, in light of the unique gifts and abilities with which he was endowed, and in light of the thoroughness and balance of his mature theological work, can fittingly be styled “the American Chemnitz.” Krauth was in fact an avid student of the writings of the Second Martin, and he absorbed much from him in both form and substance. It is also quite apparent that the mature Krauth always attempted to follow a noticeably Chemnitzian, “Concordistic” approach in the fulfillment of his calling as a teacher of the church in nineteenth-century America. We will return to these thoughts in a little while. Be- fore that, though, we should spend some time in examining Krauth’s familial and ecclesiastical origins, and the historical context of his development as a confessor of God’s timeless truth. Krauth’s Origins In the words of Walther, Krauth was, without a doubt, the most eminent man in the English Lutheran Church of this country, a man of rare learning, at home no less in the old than in modern theology, and, what is of greatest import, whole-heartedly devoted to the pure doctrine of our Church, as he had learned to understand it, a noble man and without guile.2 But Krauth’s pathway to this kind of informed Confessionalism was not an easy one.

Lutheran Church. St. Louis: Concordia Publishing House, 1921), pp. 565-773 Preface A Christian, Profitable, and Necessary Preface and Faithful, Earnest Exhortation of Dr. Martin Luther to All Christians, but Especially to All Pastors and Preachers, that They Should Daily Exercise Themselves in the Catechism, which is a Short Summary and Epitome of the Entire Holy Scriptures, and that they May Always Teach the Same. We have no slight reasons for treating the Catechism so constantly [in Sermons] and for both desiring and beseeching others to teach it, since we see to our sorrow that many pastors and preachers are very negligent in this, and slight both their office and this teaching; some from great and high art [giving their mind, as they imagine, to much higher matters], but others from sheer laziness and care for their paunches, assuming no other relation to this business than if they were pastors and preachers for their bellies’ sake, and had nothing to do but to [spend and] consume their emoluments as long as they live, as they have been accustomed to do under the Papacy. And although they have now everything that they are to preach and teach placed before them so abundantly, clearly, and easily, in so many [excellent and] helpful books, and the true Sermones per se loquentes, Dormi secure, Paratos et Thesauros, as they were called in former times; yet they are not so godly and honest as to buy these books, or even when they have them, to look at them or read them.

Wer weiß z.B. , daß der Jensendamm an einen frühere Stadtbaurat erinnert oder daß der Blocksberg nach einem dort ehemals ansässigen Gärtner Block benannt ist? In diesen Fällen erschließt sich der Hinter- grund erst durch Nachforschung. Vielfach spiegeln die Namen auch die jeweilige politische und gesellschaftli- che Situation ihrer Entstehung wider, so nutzten z.B. die Nationalsozialisten diese Form der Ehrung ihrer Vor- bilder. Nach 1945 wurden diese Namen dann wieder ersetzt. Straßenbenennungen der jüngsten Zeit weisen auf ein gewachsenes Bewußtsein für die Bedeutung der Frauen in der Geschichte hin. Bis jetzt sind viele Auflagen der Broschüre Kieler "Straßennamen - Herkunft und Bedeutung" erschienen, die der bereits in den Ruhestand getretene Mitarbeiter der Statistikstelle Kiel Hans-Christian Voß entwickelt und betreut hat. Diese Publikation erfreute sich stets lebhafter Nachfrage und wurde sogar gelegentlich in den Schulunterricht einbezogen.
