  • Oh Come, Let Us Worship! Page 2
    O Come, Let Us Worship! Rev. Mark E. DeGarmeaux 1995 Synod Convention Essay A Study in Lutheran Liturgy and Hymnody I. The Church Service II. The Church Song Christian music on earth is nothing but a foretaste of or a Prelude to everlasting life, since here we only intone and sing the Antiphons until through temporal death we sing the Introit and the Sequence, and in everlasting life the true Completory and the Hymns in all eternity. Nikolaus Selnecker I. The Church Service O come, let us sing to the LORD Let us make a joyful noise to the Rock of our salvation. Let us come before His presence with thanksgiving Let us make a joyful noise to Him with psalms. For the LORD is the great God And the great King above all gods. In His hand are the deep places of the earth; The heights of the hills are His also. The sea is His, for He made it; And His hands formed the dry land. O come, let us worship and bow down Let us kneel before the LORD our Maker. For He is our God, And we are the people of His pasture, And the sheep of His hand. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost; as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, forevermore. Amen. (Psalm 95, the Venite from the Office of Matins) God created our world perfect and in harmony with Himself and His holiness. All the earth was to serve man and glorify God, so "let everything that has breath praise the LORD" (Psalm 150:6).

  • Danish Literature Mikkel Nordvig, University of Copenhagen
    Danish Literature Mikkel Nordvig, University of Copenhagen 1. General Bestsellers. Lars Handesten, Bestsellere — En litteratur- og kulturhistorie om de mest solgte bøger i Danmark, Hellerup, Spring, 574 pp., ignores the perceived dichotomy between quality and quantity in literature and demonstrates how the most popular pieces of literature reflect the development in interests and views in a cultural sphere. Divided into sections, the first about the concept of bestsellers, the book includes a number of categories — gender, genealogy, crime fiction, etc. Through short readings and presentations H. shows how these genres and themes provide the frames for both Danish and translated literature that has won public acclaim in Denmark since the beginning of the 1980s. Using the number of units sold, as opposed to nationality and artistic quality, as the criterion for literary history writing gives a rather different perspective. Current Trends. Ida Bencke, ‘Kroppen er noget andet — Posthumanisme og cyborghjerter hos Ursula Andkjær Olsen’, Kritik, 211:53–64, notes that a number of authors have made their debut over the recent years with works on matters of the body, and studies this through a reading of Ursula Andkjær Olsen’s (1970-) volume of poetry Det 3. årtusindes hjerte (The Heart of the 3rd Millennium), ambiguous, monstrous and pulsating with abrupt and wildly kaleidoscopic text that does not display the body and its functions as bearers of other meanings but as raw existence. Bencke muses over post-humanism, the blurring of the lines between nature and culture, and eco feminist Donna Haraway’s (1944-) concept of the cyborg, a hybrid between the organic and the artificial.

  • The Spread of Pietism to Scandinavian Lutherans
    WARM WINDS FROM THE SOUTH: THE SPREAD OF PIETISM TO SCANDINAVIAN LUTHERANS Wilhelm W. Petersen It is indeed a pleasure and a privilege to participate in the annual Pieper Lectures. I have always had the deepest admiration for Dr. Francis Pieper, having studied his Christian Dogmatics at Bethany Lutheran Theological Seminary while a student there and then teaching Christian Dogmatics for seventeen years while president of Bethany Seminary. Since the theme of the lectures this year is pietism it should be noted that Dr. Pieper has much to say about this subject in his three volumes of Christian Dogmatics. I checked the many references to pietism in the Index Volume IV and would like to submit one quote from Pieper where he summarizes the essence of pietism.
