    Imagine if there were a website like Ashley Madison back in the days of the Puritans. In The Crucible, John Proctor, a respected, godly man, became inappropriately involved with a younger woman, Abigail Williams, while he was still married to his wife Goody Proctor. He admitted to the crime and shortly after, the entire town was gossiping about it. Proctor agreed to confess his sin of adultery, but when he is told that it must be a public confession, he backs out to save his and his wife's name. John Proctor was living a lie where he was not always honest with himself; he has to come to terms with his internal struggle with his infidelities, before his wife and God could forgive him.…

    Psalm 23 Flock

    Samir, I believe you are on the right path with the understanding that material wealth and prestige are not eternal. Furthermore, as a manager, the work which is produced by those around us is often as a result of cultivating the flock. For instance, in the case of the Psalm 23 flock, the shepherd leads the flock to green pastures and still water; a place where the flock is safe and can flourish. Therefore, the flock may abundantly produce, and therefore provide to the shepherd with their milk and wool. In the work place, a manager must be mindful to the condition of their flock, because at the end of the day, the flock’s product and attitude often reflects that of their leader.…

    In addition, the Alexandrian School focuses on John the Baptist, his teachings and his proclamations. Early Christians who were part of the Alexandrian School believe the baptism of Jesus contributes to his divinity. For example, when John was baptizing Jesus he references both himself as well as the Holy Spirit. As stated in The Proclamation of John the Baptist line 8, “I have baptized you with water; but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.” Another example that shows the divinity of Jesus is the events that take place during his baptism.…

    The Passover supper Personal thoughts: On Thursday morning, the first day of the Feast, Jesus sent Peter and John to prepare a place where he could hold the Passover supper with his disciples in the evening. He knew it was the last time that he would break the bread of the Passover with them before he suffered, and it was also the first Holy Supper of the Christian Church. During the supper, he taught them a lesson of humility and talked with them tenderly and served them. At the end of the dinner, they sung a psalm together and he asked them to always believe him and no matter what happened never change their faith in God. He told them to live from him, like a branch lives from the vine, for he was the true spiritual vine, and without him they could do nothing.…

It is believed that John was referring to the Passover Lamb because its blood spared the Israelites from the death of their firstborn. The Passover feast is the main Jewish holiday that celebrates God releasing the Israelites from bondage. Sacrificing lambs in the temple was a part of the Jewish religion.…

    A significant aspect of Jesus’ portraits has to do with the titles used to describe him and point to his humanness or divinity. The diction used in Mark is less suggestive of Jesus’ divine nature than in John. The most common title for Jesus in Mark’s gospel is “Teacher” or “Master,” plain human terms that emphasize the idea of serving others. Jesus is portrayed as the servant of God, but he is nonetheless the leader of the people on earth by virtue of his status as a prophet. Jesus being identified as “Teacher” is also important because Mark’s audience, the Gentiles, was relatively new to the faith, and Mark wanted to stress that Jesus was a model for them to serve God before serving themselves during the persecutions.…
