The Biblical Repository And Quarterly Observer — Bela Bates Edwards. This 1836 Part 1 edition, translated and annotated by M. Steuart from J. A. H. Tittmann’s Latin, offers a scholarly, polemical treatment of Paul's obedience of Christ and its interpretation within Lutheran and Reformation-era debates. The work surveys Lutheran confessions such as the Augsburg Confession, Apologia, Smalcald Articles, Small and Large Catechisms, and Formula Concordiae, tracing the development of doctrines on Christ's obedience, justification, and the imputation of righteousness. Central argument: scripture alone as rule of faith, skepticism toward confessional formulas tied to creeds, and a critique of the active-imputed obedience scheme as developed in Formula Concordiae. The author and editor discuss Luther, Melanchthon, Zwingli, Calvin, and later Lutheran figures, and examine the complex issue of whether Christ's active obedience is imputable to believers. Using Romans 5, Galatians 3–4, Philippians 2, Hebrews 5, and related texts, the study argues that Paul’s writings support a holistic view of obedience and grace, not a rigid imputation framework, while defending private interpretation and scriptural primacy. It concludes with caution about confessional unity and a call to return to biblical gospel and individual accountability.
