Redeeming the Church: Essays for the Church in an Age of Confession
by James D. Heiser
“Redeeming the Time by James Heiser is a collection of orthodox, confessional
Lutheran essays that should be in the library of every serious Lutheran,
whether clergyman or layman--and they would do non-Lutherans a world of good.
The scholarship is impeccable; the style is attractive; and the topics are
directly relevant to the church of the 21st century in a secular age.”

Rights, Strasbourg, France
Redeeming the Time—Essays for the Church in an Age of Confession is a
collection of ten essays written by the bishop of the Evangelical Lutheran
Diocese of North America (ELDoNA). In these essays, Bishop Heiser addresses
some of the most contentious issues confronting the Church in the modern age,
including the ecumenical movement, contemporary worship, and contentions over
the office of the holy ministry. The essays included in this volume are as
follows:
“An Overview of the Distinction of Grades of Sin in the Book of Concord
and the Early Lutheran Fathers”
“The Use of Irenaeus’ Adversus Haereses in Martin Chemnitz’ Loci
Theologici”
“Confessionalism and Pluralism in our Post-Modern World”
“The Balance of Word and Sacrament in the Divine Service.”
“The Limits of Liturgical Innovation in light of Martin Luther’s
Exhortation to the Christians in Livonia Concerning Public Worship and Unity
(1525).”
“The Art of Rhetoric and the Art of Hymnody”
“The Role of Philosophy in the Theology of Philipp Melanchthon: Is
There a Need for Reappraisal?”
“The Decree of Uppsala (1593) and the Confessional Lutheran Church in
Sweden”
“Capital Punishment: A Scriptural Perspective”
“The Church-State Relationship and Augustana XVI in the Writings of C.
F. W. Walther and S. S. Schmucker”
