The Choir Organ at St. Thomas, Strasbourg, designed in 1905 on principles defined by Albert Schweitzer.

Schweitzer found many New Testament references to apparently show that 1st-century Christians believed literally in the imminent fulfillment of the promise of the World's ending, within the lifetime of Jesus's original followers, He noted that in the gospel of Mark, Jesus speaks of a " tribulation ", with his coming in the clouds with great power and glory " ( St Mark ), and states when it will happen: " This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled " ( St Matthew, 24: 34 ) ( or, " have taken place " ( Luke 21: 32 )): " All these things shall come upon this generation " ( Matthew 23: 36 ).

In his book Civilization And Ethics Albert Schweitzer faces the moral problems which arise when moral law is recognized in business life, for example.

Schweitzer seems, in fact, to acquire for himself a burden of sin, not bequeathed by Adam, but accumulated in the inevitable judgments which life requires of him as between greater and lesser responsibilities.

In seeking for such meaning and purpose, Albert Schweitzer seized upon the concept of the `` sacredness of life ''.

There is indeed a moral responsibility on man himself, for his own soul's sake, to respect lower life and to avoid the infliction of suffering, but this viewpoint Schweitzer rejects.

Glenn Kittler has been twice to Africa, once spending a week with Dr. Albert Schweitzer.

Albert Schweitzer, OM ( 14 January 1875 – 4 September 1965 ) was a German and then French theologian, organist, philosopher, physician, and medical missionary.

Schweitzer, a Lutheran, challenged both the secular view of Jesus as depicted by historical-critical methodology current at his time in certain academic circles, as well as the traditional Christian view.

Born in Kaysersberg, Schweitzer spent his childhood in the village of Gunsbach, Alsace (), where his father, the local Lutheran-Evangelical pastor, taught him how to play music.

Schweitzer, the pastor's son, grew up in this exceptional environment of religious tolerance, and developed the belief that true Christianity should always work towards a unity of faith and purpose.

He studied organ there from 1885 – 1893 with Eugène Munch, organist of the Protestant Temple, who inspired Schweitzer with his profound enthusiasm for the music of German composer Richard Wagner.

Widor, deeply impressed, agreed to teach Schweitzer without fee, and a great and influential friendship was begun.

Schweitzer absolved the one year compulsory military service in 1894.

Schweitzer saw many operas of Richard Wagner at Straßburg ( under Otto Lohse ), and in 1896 he pulled together the funds to visit Bayreuth to see Wagner's Der Ring des Nibelungen and Parsifal, and was deeply affected.

Schweitzer rapidly gained prominence as a musical scholar and organist, dedicated also to the rescue, restoration and study of historic pipe organs.

His pamphlet " The Art of Organ Building and Organ Playing in Germany and France " ( 1906, republished with an appendix on the state of the organ-building industry in 1927 ) effectively launched the 20th century Orgelbewegung, which turned away from romantic extremes and rediscovered baroque principles — although this sweeping reform movement in organ building eventually went further than Schweitzer himself had intended.

Schweitzer also studied piano under Isidor Philipp, head of the piano department at the Paris Conservatory.

In 1905 Widor and Schweitzer were among the six musicians who founded the Paris Bach Society, a choir dedicated to performing J. S.

Bach's music, for whose concerts Schweitzer took the organ part regularly until 1913.

Schweitzer, who insisted that the score should show Bach's notation with no additional markings, wrote the commentaries for the Preludes and Fugues, and Widor those for the Sonatas and Concertos: six volumes were published in 1912 – 14.

Schweitzer established his reputation further as a New Testament scholar with other theological studies including The Psychiatric Study of Jesus ( 1911 ); and his two studies of the apostle Paul, Paul and his Interpreters, and the more complete The Mysticism of Paul the Apostle ( 1930 ).

Günther Bornkamm was a proponent of the Second Quest for the Historical Jesus ( Albert Schweitzer ) and suggested a tighter relationship between Jesus and the theology of the early church ( in contrast to the ' First ' and ' No Quest ' periods ending in 1953 ).

Since the mid-1890s Schweitzer had formed the inner resolve that it was needful for him as a Christian to repay to the world something for the happiness which it had given to him, and he determined that he would pursue his younger interests until the age of thirty and then give himself to serving humanity, with Jesus serving as his example.

In The Quest, Schweitzer reviewed all former work on the " historical Jesus " back to the late 18th century.

Schweitzer, however, writes: " The Jesus of Nazareth who came forward publicly as the Messiah, who preached the ethic of the kingdom of God, who founded the kingdom of heaven upon earth and died to give his work its final consecration never existed.

Schweitzer writes that modern Christians of many kinds deliberately ignore the urgent message ( so powerfully proclaimed by Jesus during the 1st century ) of an imminent end of the world.

Schweitzer concludes that the 1st century theology, originating in the lifetimes of those who first followed Jesus, is both incompatible with, and far removed from, those beliefs later made official by the Roman Emperor Constantine in 325 CE.

In 1906, Albert Schweitzer portrayed Jesus as a failed apocalyptic prophet, and this analysis virtually put an end to historical inquiry into Jesus.

While some of these pillars are noncontroversial, some scholars of the historical Jesus follow Albert Schweitzer in regarding him as apocalyptic.

While calling the views expressed in the Fragments mistaken in some respects and one-sided, Schweitzer describes the essay on “ The Aims of Jesus and His Disciples ” as not only “ one of the greatest events in the history of criticism ” but also “ a masterpiece of general literature ”.

Richard N. Soulen points out that Reimarus “ is treated as the initiator of ‘ Lives of Jesus Research ’ by Schweitzer and accorded special honor by him for recognizing that Jesus ' thought-world was essentially eschatological, a fact overlooked until the end of the 19th century .”

Renan's Life of Jesus was lavished with ironic praise and criticism by Albert Schweitzer in his book Quest of the Historical Jesus.

Albert Schweitzer, whose book coined the term Quest for the historical Jesus

Albert Schweitzer, Rudolf Bultmann, Norman Perrin and Johannes Weiss argued that Jesus ’ " kingdom " was intended to be a wholly futuristic kingdom.

As Albert Schweitzer showed in his Quest of the Historical Jesus, in the early 19th century, debate about the " Historical Jesus " centered on the credibility of the miracle reports.

In the 19th century important scholarship was done by David Strauss, Ernest Renan, Johannes Weiss, Albert Schweitzer and others, all of whom investigated the " historical Jesus " within the Gospel narratives.

* Albert Schweitzer ( 1875-1965 ): German theologian who was a pioneer in the quest for the historical Jesus.

Albert Schweitzer emphasized that Jesus was an apocalyptic prophet, preparing his fellow Jews for the imminent end of the world.

In fact, Schweitzer saw Jesus as a failed, would-be Messiah whose ethic was suitable only for the short interim before the apocalypse.
