  • SEBTS Chapel - Olin Trivette Binkley April 12, 1962

    Description:
    The service begins with the reading of Psalm 122:1 and Psalm 43:3a (00:00-00:33) and prayer (00:34-02:03). There was no introduction for Olin Trivette Binkley, but he was Academic Dean and Professor of Christian Sociology and Ethics at SEBTS. He begins by focusing on the integrity of servants of God in a theological school amidst the pressures and problems in a very complex and dynamic society (02:04-03:55). He draws attention to three basic convictions: first, the Living God knows us as we are and loves us (03:56-04:20); second, God, who offers salvation, demands something of us that is consonant with His nature (04:21-04:37); third, God has revealed Himself to us as the God of mercy and truth (04:38-05:16). He then speaks about the two factors of interpersonal relationships in seminary: first, honesty in straightforward speech (05:17-07:22); second, the integrity of mind and conscience involves affectionate loyalty to whole persons and to the whole fellowship of the school, having compassion, humility, and courage (07:23-17:04). He ends with prayer (17:05-17:37).

  • SEBTS Chapel - Robert Cook Briggs April 11, 1962

    Description:
    The service begins with an opening word and prayer (00:00-04:11). There is no introduction for the speaker, Robert Cook Briggs, but he was Professor of New Testament Interpretation at SEBTS. He begins by reading Romans 12:1-2 (04:12-05:36). He bypasses “what one ought to do” and focuses on “how one is to interpret the meaning of student days” (05:37-07:00). He summarizes the sermon in three points: first, years spent in seminary are best seen as years of opportunity (07:01-14:44); second, this opportunity is related to both what one has been before seminary and also what one will be after seminary (14:45-18:06); and third, essentially, this opportunity must ultimately be seen as a gift from God (18:07-19:58). He ends in prayer (19:59-20:50).

  • SEBTS Missionary Day Address - Henry E. Turlington March 22, 1962

    Description:
    The service begins with a brief word (00:00-00:56) and prayer (00:57-02:12). A brief highlight is placed on missions as the core focus of the seminary (02:13-03:42). An introduction is given for the speaker, Dr. Henry E. Turlington, pastor of University Baptist Church in Chapel Hill, NC, and former missionary in China (03:43-06:43). He begins with cordial greetings and the importance of the Scriptures in Baptist life (06:44-10:00). The Bible is relevant from Paul’s time until now, even as it still is changing; Turlington illustrates this from 1 Corinthians 9:19-22 (10:01-12:30). After giving a brief history about the British East India Company, he speaks of how much circumstances for missions in China and the world have changed (12:31-25:45). The question arises: “Is there need for any particular religion?” (25:46-27:44). He then draws out three of Paul’s teachings about himself from 1 Corinthians 9:19-22. First, he adapted himself to the environment in which he lived without denying the nature of the Christian life (27:45-31:01). Second, Paul taught the gospel absolutely cannot be determined by the environment; it already is (31:02-35:38). He then speaks briefly of this concerning Hinduism (35:39-36:53). Third, Paul was not afraid to trust God with young Christian churches (36:54-41:21). He ends his time in prayer (41:22-42:34).

  • SEBTS Chapel - William Claudius Strickland January 5, 1962

    Description:
    The service begins with prayer (00:00-03:34). There is no introduction for the speaker, Dr. William Claudius Strickland, but he was Professor of New Testament Interpretation at SEBTS. He spends his time in chapel going over six items about the nature of the Christian life (03:35-04:46). First, we live only by the grace of God (04:47-07:50). Second, there is little difference between the general existence of the Christian and non-Christian (07:51-09:56), saying thirdly that we have nothing to lose because we are not our own (09:57-10:20). Next, transitioning from general to specific, he mentions that we live in faith (10:21-13:54). He then says we live in a radical love not produced by the world but by God (13:55-14:52), and we live in hope in God (14:53-16:41). The service ends with singing (16:42-19:44).
