Romans 8

In the baptismal ritual of the Danish Church, the Lord’s Prayer has since 1912 been placed after baptism while it formerly was placed before, as in Luther’s Taufbüchlein. Two consecutive articles argue that the replacement in 1912 was influenced by Nikolai Frederik Severin Grundtvig’s theology. The present second article deals with the different translations of Biblical passages central to the baptizee as a child of God, and attempts to demonstrate that Grundtvig identified the Lord’s Prayer with the Abba-cry mentioned in Romans 8:15 and Galatians 4:6. Thus, the Lord’s Prayer had its role to play after baptism and furthermore functioned for the believer as a daily confirmation and an inner assurance of salvation.

The annonymous work called The Rule of the Master, in the so-called Thema, contains a commentary to the Lord’s Prayer. The Master, in his interpretion of invocation, touches the Christian doctrine. He analyse adopted sonship, which men is receiving by the Grace of God. This grace is a fruit of salvation given by Christ passover. Every Christian receives this grace in sacrament of baptism. First three request in Lord’s Prayer, although directed to God strictly, also refer to bound between man and Father. These prayers contains double dimension: theocentric and antropocentric. First, these three request are leading to the God, and from Him, return to man to realize to him the obligations which are connected with the status: the child of God. Four next requests concer the specific needs of man, such as daily food, forgiveness, defense against the devil and temptations. We can not admit, that these four are focusing only on man. We can find in it also a deep theocentric feature. By directing these request to God, says The Master, man expect suport and help.

Romans 8

This essay comments on the nature of the language of the law and legal interpretation by exam- ining their effects on their recipients. Two forms of philosophy of law are examined, legal positiv- ism and teleological interpretive theory, which are then applied to their specific manifestations in literature and case law, both relating to antebellum slave law. In these cases, the slave sustains civil death under the law, permissible by means of these legal interpretive strategies.
