1:069

Baier: Theology is a supernatural aptitude

1:043, 076

Pfeiffer: no doctrine outside of those based on Scripture

1:005

true nature of theology, is based on Scripture

1:091n319

81

3:245 f.

Dogmaticians call doctrine of justification the fundamental article.

1:095n346

85

1:061 note e

"fundamental doctrines" did not originate with the Church

1:099n361

88n122

1:062

not every false doctrine which by its nature is destructive of the foundation of faith … "felicitous inconsistency" (“glückliche Inkonsequenz”)

1:103n376

92

1:065

Baier: errors on non-fundamental articles  – be “on our guard lest by embracing and teaching error we rashly sin”

1:106n387

94n135

1:067 nota c

Open question: Is the soul of each individual created by God immediately (creationism) or mediately through the parents (traducianism)?

1:107n390

95n137

1:067 

1767 ed.: p 52

Open questions: “... the many questions which Scripture leaves unanswered”

1:117n422

104

1:040

The subject of the operation of theology is homo peccator (the sinner) in so far as he is to be led to eternal salvation

1:158n545

138n190

1:076

Does theology constitute a system?

1:173n570

150n200

1:076

Baier prefers “analytic method” over synthetic” method of theology

1:173n572

150n201

1:029

Analytical method, however, proceeds from effect to cause or seeks to derive the whole from a particular part

1:175n583

151n204

—  

Baier is infected with the synergistic bias of his father-in-law Musaeus.  The edition of Walther, St. Louis, 1879, is not a mere reprint of Baier's compend, but by the addition of quotations has been expanded to three volumes

- - - - - - -

In the cited quotations, not only Luther and the old theologians, but also the modern theologians of the 19th century, are abundantly cited, so that students are offered a source material which enables them to judge both the old and modern theology.  Prof. Th. Bünger has supplied a index of subject and names on this edition of Walther’s, which has been worked with great diligence and great expertise.

1:176

152

 —

Baier discusses the last things: death, resurrection, the Judgment, and the destruction of the world immediately in connection with salvation

1:176n585

152n205

1:077

The all-important point is that the theologian observe the principle of divine revelation, not the “faith” of the theologian (Objective!)

1:177

153

1:079

Old dogmaticians using analytical method still maintain the Scripture solecisms and barbarisms of the Apostolic Scriptures, all faulty constructions of Paul, to the Holy Ghost derogatory of the Holy Ghostprinciple.

1:194

166n227

—

General intro to Baier-Walther, defense against misunderstandings - “The dogmatic works of the 17th century, …  rather do we observe in them already a pollution of the stream that gushed forth in crystal purity in the sixteenth century”

1:211

174

1:069

Luther: “A doctor of the Holy Scriptures no one can make for you but alone the Holy Ghost from heaven”

1:234n673

193n2, 194n2

1:106, 105

Arguments against the inspiration of Holy Scripture: (1) different style in the various books in the Scripture

1:285n810

236n45

1:102

(2) The appeal of the holy writers to their historical research

1:297n834

247n53

1:102 f.

(4) alleged contradictions in Scripture and erroneous statements  – Kahnis: “all the inaccurate quotations” from the Old Testament found in the New.

1:308n850

255n58

1:342n953

283n94

1:102

1:367n1018

304n102

1:103

Kahnis: “This principle [of Scripture’s sole authority] is independent of the dogmaticians' doctrine of inspiration”

1:372n1036

307n119

1:119

This divine authority of Scripture (Christian certainty, or fides divina) is absolute  – “worthy of credence on its own account”

 Melanchthon: “I forced Eck to admit we are right in ascribing righteousness to faith.”

2:648n1519

537n68

3:283 ff.

Justification not two acts, forgiveness and imputation, but one act.

2:653n1530

541n74

3:260 ff., 271 ff.

“Universal justification is the object of justifying faith.”

Walther’s personal copy [of Baier] contains these notes: "The causa media on the part of God — the means of grace —the promise — is missing in the whole presentation.” “There can be a justification by faith only because of the universal justification already accomplished. This statement, too, is missing in Baier’s exposition.”

Luther’s writing here;

Carpzov defends the object of justifying faith as universal objective justification.

2:653n1531

3:285

Object of justifying faith is …  the objective forgiveness which has been purchased by Christ and is offered in the means of grace
