They are all related, however, to the founding and early history of the Ev. Luth. Scandinavian (later Swedish) Augustana Synod (later Church). Thus they also relate clearly to early Swedish immigration to the Midwest. -
Og Kirkesynet Hos Eivind Berggrav Og Sigmund Feyling Under Krigsårene 1940-1945
En sammenligning av stats- og kirkesynet hos Eivind Berggrav og Sigmund Feyling under krigsårene 1940-1945. Av Frida Sofie Øyen. Veileder Professor Øyvind Norderval Fordypningsoppgave i Teologi ved Det teologiske fakultet UNIVERSITETET I OSLO VÅREN 2019 II En sammenligning av stats- og kirkesynet hos Eivind Berggrav og Sigmund Feyling under krigsårene 1940-1945. III © Forfatter Våren 2019. Tittel: En sammenligning av stats og kirkesynet hos Eivind Berggrav og Sigmund Feyling under krigsårene 1940-1945. Forfatter Frida Sofie Øyen. http://www.duo.uio.no/ Trykk: Allkopi IV Sammendrag Denne oppgavens hensikt er å se på Eivind Berggrav og Sigmund Feylings ulike fremstillinger av stat og kirke som kommer frem i deres skrifter og hendelser under krigsårene 1940-1945. Dette gjøres blant annet ved hjelp av diskursanalyse. Noe av målet for denne oppgaven er å se på hvordan staten og kirken fremstilles ut fra Berggrav og Feylings ulike tilnærminger og ståsteder. I krigsårene står Eivind Berggrav på den norske motstandsiden og var biskop i Oslo da krigen kom til Norge. Sigmund Feyling var prest og medlem av Nasjonal Samling (N.S). Han ble ekspedisjonssjef i kirkedepartementet da N.S kommer til makten i Norge. Denne oppgaven vil altså ta for seg to forskjellige prester/teologer som stod på hver sin side av krigen. Noen av argumentene som denne oppgaven ser nærmere på, er for eksempel når Berggrav og Feyling argumenterer om kirken alltid skal være lydig mot staten eller ikke. Rom.:13 viser seg blant annet å være et viktig bibelsted for både Berggrav og Feyling, når det kommer til det de skriver om kirken og folket alltid skal være lydige mot staten eller ikke. -
Paul Rowntree Clifford, "Christian Brethren and Nuclear War
Christian Realism and Nuclear War PAUL ROWNTREE CLIFFORD HE DILEMMA facing Christians in relation to warfare is now more acute T than it has ever been. Up to the beginning of the nuclear age the Church had to reckon with the tension between those who saw in the New Testament a clear injunction to uncompromising pacifism, either on the grounds that killing or using force or both were wrong, and those who believed, with St. Augustine, 1 that in a fallen world conflict is inevitable and that it is the duty of the Christian to resist violence and aggression, even to the extent of being willing to take other lives should the need arise. To many, pacifism appeared to be an individualistic avoidance of political responsibility, only defensible as a quasi-monastic withdrawal from the world: a vocation perhaps for a few, but not a viable political policy which Christians could urge upon the state. Whatever the horrors of war, it was possible to argue on moral grounds that in certain circumstances it was right to take up arms, the foundation for this position being the doctrine of "the just war," for centuries an integral part of Catholic moral teaching. I. THE CONCEPT OF THE JusT WAR The invention of modern methods of mass destruction has created an entirely new situation which faces Christians with the challenge to rethink their position on a realistic basis. While individualistic pacifism is still likely to appeal only to a few, the majority of Christians look for a viable political policy which they can both defend and advocate; and this seems to be com pletely lacking. -
The Church Struggle in Germany: “The Hope That We Have”
The Church Struggle in Germany: “The Hope That We Have” “Faith and Fatherland: Parish Politics in Hitler’s Germany” by Kyle Jantzen (Fortress, 2008) “Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy A Righteous Gentile vs. The Third Reich” by Eric Metaxas (Thomas Nelson, 2010) “The Holy Reich: Nazi Conceptions of Christianity, 1919‐1945” by Richard Steigmann‐ Gall (Cambridge, 2003) Those who personally remember the Second World War are nearly gone. At this writing, at the beginning of 2011, no one with any memories of that period of world history is under the age of seventy-five. War veterans that survive today are more than eighty years old. Memories fade. People carry their own stories into the grave. It is now up to the historians and philosophers to help us explore and struggle with that terrible time in human history. As Lutherans, we need to continue to probe our own theology and culture in light of the German Nazi experience. How do we make sense of a time where in the most Lutheran country in the world, a philosophy arose that was responsible for the global disaster of World War II? We ask ourselves the tough questions. How could all of this have happened? Did Lutheranism shape the Nazi movement? Was the Lutheran community a willing accomplice to the Nazis in Germany, or were Lutherans (as was Dietrich Bonhoeffer) valiant resisters? Is Bonhoeffer popular in the post- war German church because he was typical of Lutheran anti-Nazi heroism, or did he prove the rule, by his life exception, that the Lutheran church in Germany was totally corrupt and compromised? Indeed, is Bonhoffer’s memory being abused by those who would look to the church as somehow an island of resistance in the sea of Gospel betrayal? Was the Lutheran Church in Germany as fascist as the Nazi regime? These questions, and many more, have been the subject of an entire field of historical studies for the past sixty years. -
Kall, Skaperordning Og Makt En Analyse Av Kjønn I Lyngenlæstadianismen
Kall, skaperordning og makt En analyse av kjønn i lyngenlæstadianismen Torjer A. Olsen Avhandling levert for graden Philosophiae Doctor UNIVERSITETET I TROMSØ Det samfunnsvitenskapelige fakultet Institutt for religionsvitenskap November 2008 ISBN: 978-82-91636-91-7 SV fakultetet 2008 Forord Universitetet i Tromsø har finansiert dette forskningsprosjektet gjennom et doktorgradsstipend. Jeg takker for dette, samt for utenlandsstipendet som gjorde det mulig å reise med hele familien og være utenlands to semester. I intervjuer, samtaler og gjennom deltakelse på stevner og forsamlinger har jeg møtt mange folk i de lyngenlæstadianske menighetene. Jeg takker særlig informantene mine, som her opptrer anonymt, for å ha gitt meg av tida si og for fortellinger og svar. Takk også til de mange som har slått av en prat, hilst på, vært nysgjerrige og kommet med kritikk. Det er å håpe at denne avhandlingen også kan gi noe til dem, og ikke bare kan virke i reint akademiske sammenhenger. Videre vil jeg gi en ekstra takk til Ragnar Samuelsen og Sigrun Martinsen, som har stått på for å finne svar på mine henvendelser om forsamlingshus, årstall og forskjellige personer fra historien. Hovedveileder, førsteamanuensis Siv-Ellen Kraft ved Institutt for religionsvitenskap ved Universitetet i Tromsø, har lest store og små tekster av særdeles varierende kvalitet, og har imponert med en fantastisk effektivitet. Innimellom har småbarnspraten danka ut avhandlingspraten. Jeg er uansett svært takknemlig for et inkluderende og svært lærerikt samarbeid, Siv-Ellen! Biveileder har vært professor Lisbeth Mikaelsson ved Seksjon for religionsvitenskap ved Universitetet i Bergen. Med en teft for fokus, presisjon og analytiske krav, samt en viss mengde brutalitet, har hun fått avhandlingen ut fra blindveier og inn på mer fruktbare stier. -
