Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Augsburg Confession: A Brief Review of Its History and an Interpretation of Its Doctrinal Articles With Introductory Discussions on Confessional Questions A number of years ago, when the new introduction to J. T. Mueller´s "Symbolische Buecher," written by Professor Kolde, of Erlangen, appeared, giving us a bird´s-eye view of the present status of research regarding the Augsburg Confession, the writer went to work and secured all the necessary source material for writing more extensively a critical introduction to the Augsburg Confession. The story which Dr. Kolde had told on thirty pages the writer wanted to tell more in detail and yet in such a way that the student of the Augsburg Confession would find all the available information without being confused. This work was finished in German at the time when the "Confessional History of the Lutheran Church" by Dr. J. W. Richard was published. Soon, also, the "Confessional Principle and the Confessions of the Lutheran Church" by Drs. T. E. Schmauk and T. Benze appeared. These works, like the one which the writer had prepared, were written in the technical form of theological research. This kept him from publishing his work at that time. But, on the basis of this work, is now presented a book on the Augsburg Confession that has been prepared with regard for the taste of the common reader who does not care for the more detailed investigations in the technical language of the theologians. The main stress in this book is not upon the history of the Augsburg Confession, but upon the interpretation of its text, its articles. It is prefaced by a chapter with simple talks on confessional questions, which is especially dedicated to our laymen. It is an attempt to answer a number of questions which they especially have in mind, and endeavors to interest them in the study of the confessional principles contained in the Confessions.
