Abstract

The present writer has long been interested in the study of Pauline instruction concerning motivation for sanctification. In 1967 he presented to the faculty of Concordia Seminary, St. Louis, a Master of Sacred Theology thesis on the subject of the fourth of the abovementioned motivations for ethical living, namely, faith in the fact of the Christian's union with Christ and personal participation with Him in his death and resurrection. The opportunity to enter upon a concentrated study of what Paul has to say, in particular, about the sanctifying fear of God presented itself in the same year, when the writer obtained approval from the graduate faculty at the seminary to begin work on a doctoral dissertation dealing with this subject. The results of his investigation are embodied in the present treatise, entitled, "The Fear of God As Ethical Motivation in Pauline Theology."
