Synopsis
In this Apologetics volume, The Two Realms and the Separation of Church and State, Joel Biermann explores the Christian teaching of the two realms—church and state—and the way the relationship between them is shifting in American society. The “doctrine” of the separation of church and state is a product of the Enlightenment, post-dating Luther’s distinction of two kingdoms by many generations. The separation of church and state suggests that church and government (state) occupy two independent spheres, between which there should be no interaction, hypothetically preserving both from corruption. Luther’s doctrine of two kingdoms instead suggests just one King—God—who rules in two different ways: by the Gospel (church) and by the “sword” (state). In the present era of uncertainty and confusion regarding the proper relationship of the church and the Christian to the government, the confusion of these two approaches leads to errors and uncertainties about the status and proper voice of the Christian as a citizen. Rev. Dr. Biermann not only distinguishes these two teachings but also articulates faithful Christian citizenship as informed by Lutheran theology.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. How does the heart of Lutheran theology ignite the mission of the church? Explore the formative power of justification that unites, motivates, and shapes the global witness of faith--where missiology meets the promise of salvation. Author Georg Vicedom (1903-74) weaves together deep scriptural foundations and lived church history in this incisive reflection on the enduring relationship between justification and Christian mission. This polemics book sets aside conventional mission motives and puts front and center the radical claim that the church's mission flows directly from the Gospel's transformative force. With clear-eyed analysis and ecumenical awareness, Vicedom addresses modern crises: the church's inner doubts, external challenges, and shifting cultural landscapes. Drawing richly on Reformation convictions and biblical proclamation, he uncovers why justification is not simply a doctrine to confess, but the ongoing wellspring of hope, unity, and urgency that powers every aspect of gospel proclamation. Topics you will explore include: Missionary VocationThe Church's Identity as Both Recipient and Instrument of Divine MercyShaping Authentic Community through Word and Sacrament Your eyes will be opened to practical implications for today's world--questions of church growth, faithful witness, and unity across cultures and nations surface with clarity. Pastors, students, and anyone drawn to Lutheran theology or the history of Christian mission will find this a focused, thoughtful resource that connects deep soteriology to the living mission of God. "This English translation of Georg Vicedom's work establishes the theology of mission on the basis of the Lutheran doctrine of justification by faith. Vicedom shows how mission is woven into Lutheran theology and how the missionary pursuit of the salvation of all people presents itself as the final goal for the Christian community here on earth"-- Provided by publisher.
