    ―STRENGTHENING THE FAITH OF THE CHILDREN OF GOD‖: PIETISM, PRINT, AND PRAYER IN THE MAKING OF A WORLD EVANGELICAL HERO, GEORGE MÜLLER OF BRISTOL (1805-1898) by DARIN DUANE LENZ B.A., California State University, Bakersfield, 1997 M.A., Assemblies of God Theological Seminary, 2000 M.A., Villanova University, 2003 AN ABSTRACT OF A DISSERTATION submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2010 Abstract George Müller of Bristol (1805-1898) was widely celebrated in the nineteenth century as the founder of the Ashley Down Orphan Homes in Bristol, England. He was a German immigrant to Great Britain who was at the vanguard of evangelical philanthropic care of children. The object of his charitable work, orphans, influenced the establishment of Christian orphanages in Great Britain, North America, Asia, Africa, Latin America, and Europe. However, what brought Müller widespread public acclaim was his assertion that he supported his orphan homes solely by relying on faith and prayer. According to Müller, he prayed to God for the material needs of the orphans and he believed, in faith, that those needs were supplied by God, without resort to direct solicitation, through donations given to him. He employed his method as a means to strengthen the faith of his fellow Christians and published an ongoing chronicle of his answered prayers that served as evidence. Müller‘s method of financial support brought him to the forefront of public debate in the nineteenth century about the efficacy of prayer and the supernatural claims of Christianity.

Several years ago, she guided my independent study of “Lutheran Orthodoxy 1580-1675,” which was my first introduction to this material. The two trips to Wittenberg over the January terms (2014 and 2016) and course on “Luther as Pastor” were very good introductions to Luther on-site.

UMI 300 North Zeeb Road Ann Arbor, MI 48103 COPYRIGHT BY TERRY DALE THOMPSON 1996 ABSTRACT God's Special Way examines the relationship between Halle Pietism and the Hohenzollern monarchy in order to discern the nature and effect on Brandenburg-Prussia of that alliance. Halle Pietism was a reform movement within the Lutheran church in 17th and 18th century Germany that believed the establishment church had become too concerned with correct theology, thus they aimed at a revival of intense Biblicism, personal spirituality, and social reform. The Pietists, led by August Hermann Francke (1662-1727) , and King Friedrich Wilhelm I (rl7l3-l740) were partners in an attempt to create a Godly realm in economically strapped and politically divided Brandenburg-Prussia. In large measure the partnership produced Pietist control of Brandenburg- Prussia'a pulpits and schoolrooms, despite the opposition of another informal alliance, this between the landed nobility and the establishment Lutheran church, who hoped to maintain their own authority in the religious and political spheres.

  • Tracing, Cataloguing, Indexing: Reflections on the Joachim And
    A R C H I V A L Reflexicon 2020 The “Mission Archives” in the Archives of the Francke Foundations in Halle Brigitte Klosterberg, Franckesche Stiftungen zu Halle This is a translated version of the 2019 MIDA Archival Reflexicon entry “Das „Missionsarchiv“ im Archiv der Franckeschen Stiftungen zu Halle”. The text was translated by Rekha Rajan. Historical Background After a ship voyage lasting more than six months, the two theologians Bartholomäus Ziegenbalg (1682-1719) and Heinrich Plütschau (1677-1747) arrived in Tranquebar (today: Tharangambadi), the main bastion of the Danish colonies in Southeast India on 6 June, 1706. Their arrival marked the beginning of an intercultural dialogue that carried on into the nineteenth century between the European representatives of the first Protestant mission in Copenhagen, Halle and London and the people living in the South Indian kingdom of Tanjore. The mission undertaking was funded by the Danish Crown, but it received guidance and support from the educational and social institutions in Halle named after the pastor and professor of theology, August Hermann Francke (1663-1727), who had established them. The mission was later also supported by the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge (SPCK) in London. Thus, the mission in Tranquebar is called the Danish-Halle mission or the Danish-English-Halle mission. Ziegenbalg and Plütschau had studied in Halle where they encountered the ideas of Pietism, the first reform movement in the Protestant Church since the Reformation. August Hermann Francke envisioned the worldwide propagation of Halle Pietism. The orphanage and the schools in Glaucha at the gates of the city of Halle were to become the foundation and the point of departure for a universal, religion-based improvement of all estates both within and outside Germany.

  • The World of Wilhelmus À Brakel
    chapter 12 Warning against the Pietists: The World of Wilhelmus à Brakel Fred van Lieburg Abstract In 1700 the Reformed minister Wilhelmus à Brakel published a voluminous compen- dium of theology in the vernacular for a Dutch lay audience. The book immediately proved a best-seller. Still in print, it remains highly valued as a work of devotional lit- erature among Dutch neo-calvinists. In the third edition (1707) the author added a new chapter, delineating Reformed orthodoxy against various forms of ‘natural’ reli- gion. Brakel appears to have been very apprehensive of the developments in German Pietism. The genesis and content of the new chapter, warning his audience ‘against Pietists, Quietists, and … Spiritless Religion Under the Guise of Spirituality’ show how a prominent minister like Brakel found himself moving the frontiers between Reformed orthodoxy and rationalism, reacting against some of the pietisms of his day, and evolving towards a ‘new Protestantism.’ 1 Between Reason and Piety At the turn of the eighteenth century, Wilhelmus à Brakel (1635–1711), ‘Minister of the Divine Word’ in Rotterdam, published his Λογικη λατρεια, dat is Redelyke godts-dienst (Logikè Latreia, that is Reasonable Religion). The author could not have predicted that his voluminous work would become and remain a best- seller.1 Although the title might suggest a commitment to contemporary ratio- nalism, in reality it referred to the apostolic vocabulary of earliest Christianity (Paul’s letter to the Romans, 12,1). In ecclesiastical historiography Brakel is associated with post-Reformation confessionalism or even early Pietism. As a 1 Wilhelmus à Brakel, Logikè latreia, dat is Redelyke godts-dienst.

  • Chapter 2 Apocalypticism, Chiliasm, and Cultural Progress: Jerusalem in Early Modern Storyworlds
    Walter Sparn Chapter 2 Apocalypticism, Chiliasm, and Cultural Progress: Jerusalem in Early Modern Storyworlds This chapter deals with the early modern transformation of the Jerusalem code in the Christian storyworld of “salvation history,” and the consequences it had in con- figuring human behavior on the pilgrimage towards the heavenly Jerusalem. The transformation became visible primarily in the outlook on the future, i.e. on the time span between the (respective) Now and the Second Advent of Christ. It implied a change from traditional apocalypticism to chiliasm (Greek root) or millenarianism, respectively millennialism (Latin root). The inner logic of salvation history inferred that this change deeply influenced the understanding of the present situation and its fatalities or potentialities. Moreover, it modified the view of the past as a basis of what happens now and will happen in the future. The new chiliastic interpretation of biblical apocalypticism, developing in sixteenth- and, on a new level, in seventeenth-century early modern Europe, is a groundbreak- ing change in the Christian worldview and in the socio-political activities asked for or allowed in it. This change was a pivotal aspect of “modernization,” for two rea- sons. First, traditional apocalypticism assumed a spatially finite world, and a finite order of time, i.e. that is a “near” catastrophic end. Early modern chiliasm still referred to a Second Advent, but prolonged the time span from now to that end more and more. Modern chiliasm is reached, when the link between the view of thefutureandanendoftimeeitherbecomesvagueornon-existent.Thepresump- tion of an open future of the world was after all successful in the Enlightenment, also in its Christian strand.

PUB DATE 24 May 91 NOTE 136p.; Masters Thesis; United Theological Seminary. PUB TYPE Dissertations/Theses Masters Theses (042) Historical Materials (060) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC06 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Colonial History (United States); *Educational History; *European History; *Higher Education; Intellectual History; *Private Colleges; Religious Education; *Religious Factors IDENTIFIERS Harvard University MA; '2ietism; Yale University CT ABSTRACT This master's paper looks at the Pietist movement of German Lutheranism from 1650 to 1750 and its effect on German Universities, the Great Awakening in America, and the founding and early history of important American universities. Pietism was a religious movement that arose from the aftermath of the Thirty Years War in Europe and was particularly concerned with personal piety and general morality. This movement transformed religious life and thinking in Germany and the Low Countries, and the educational ideas of Pietist leaders such as Philip Jacob Spener and August Hermann Francke marked the beginnings of modern German education. The Pietist movement also influenced the American Colonial religious revival movement called the Great Awakening during the mid-170.0's. The leaders of this movement, influenced by Pietist theological, missionary, and educational ideas, founded several important early colleges in the Colonies including Harvard College, Yale College, and the College of New Jersey (Princeton). Thus Pietist ideas on tolerance, academic liberty, personal piety, and the education of the clergy were developed and incorporated into the American higher education system. Their arguments and ideas are important in understanding current issues in American colleges and universities.
