Jehovah Shalom Religion

Jehovah Shalom is the God of peace who gives us; His children the perfect harmony and satisfaction in whatever we do if we ask Him. Since Jesus is a part of the Triune God-head, He is our Jehovah Shalom the Prince of Peace, and during His life on earth he has been through storms and has also had the power to conquer them in peace because of who He is and through His Father. Not only that, but He also desires to give us His peace that passeth all understanding.
Jesus Christ is the only biblical character in whom one can find perfect peace because He is the Son of The One and Only True Living God, and He came down to this earth in obedience to His Father to die on the cross to pay the penalty for our (humans) sins (John 3:16). In response to

    In Jacob Needleman’s, “The American Soul: Redicovering the Wisdom of the Founders.” He examines the difference between historical Indian morals, traditions, beliefs and common misconceptions relating to them. Needleman, an advocate for the learning and discussion of an important part of American culture, wants to recall Indian lifestyles and share them in the 21st century. Many Americans consider Indian culture to be stuck in the past, but many aspects of Iroquois legends are linked to events and issues prevalent in our modern world. Needleman discusses a ‘creation’ story, important figures, and a specific legend that all connect to modern day Christian ideals and beliefs.…

    N.T. Wright, in his book Simply Jesus, tells his view on who Jesus was, what he was trying to accomplish in his public career, and why it all matters. He describes that Jesus is much more complex than most people think. Many Christians believe that they know Jesus. Wright argues that Jesus can’t be understood easily. He uses the analogy of the perfect storm to show the complexity of Jesus which consisted of the Roman oppresive force, Jewish expectations, and the wind of God.…

    For all intents and purposes this congregational study completely unfamiliar from the tradition which I currently worship. I decided it would be interesting, and challenging as well as unfamiliar to my own tradition a Jewish Synagogue. My choice was Rodef Shalom Synagogue in the Oakland area of Pittsburgh, not far from my home. My intention was to attended a Saturday morning worship service, however, due to my unfamiliarity of Jewish services I consequently found myself attending a Bar Mitzvah. With enormous anticipation, and excitement the service surprisingly was very much in concept as a traditional Christian baptism of young children who have openly confessed their love of Christ, yet in comparison like nothing I had ever experienced.…

    Making a change in the world for the health care provided to Jehovah’s Witnesses didn’t become so personal until recently. My cousin who is a Jehovah’s Witness as well passed away last month after being put on the waiting list for liver transplant. She got sick two weeks before, but really didn’t think anything of it until she started having sharp stomach pain and was having trouble walking. She and her husband went to the hospital that night, there they tried to give her a blood transfusion, but since we do not accept blood as Jehovah’s Witnesses she refused to take it. The hospital they were at in Austin couldn’t assist her any further so they transferred her to the hospital down here in Katy where things started to take a turn for the worse.…

    “And being made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation to all who obey him, being designated by God a high priest after the order of Melchizedek, (talking of Jesus, in chapter 5, verses 9-10),” “We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, a hope that enters into the inner place behind the curtain, where Jesus has gone as a forerunner on our behalf, having become a high priest forever after the order of Melchizedek. (chapter 6 verses 19-20)” and “For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of the Most High God, met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him, and to him Abraham apportioned a tenth part of everything.

He is without father or mother or genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but resembling the Son of God he continues a priest forever.” (Hebrews 7:1-3).…

    “Christology for the New Millennium” First, “Christology is the theological study devoted to answering two main questions: Who is Jesus? (the question of his identify) also What is the nature and significance of what Jesus accomplished in the incarnation? (the question of his work). Now, the meaning of Millennium refers to the thousand-year reign, to anticipate that the new millennium will occur at some future time (Grenz 25, 79). With the meaning of both words in mind, Christology for the New Millennium seems to practice Christ in everyday life which be covered later in this paper.…

    The freedom of belief and religion for Jehovah’s Witnesses is not being enforced in certain countries. Many Witnesses are thrown in jail, killed, and persecuted for their religious beliefs in different countries. The right to freedom of belief and religion applies to everyone from every religion so it is not fair to deprive Witnesses from that right. There is still a chance to save many innocent Witnesses lives and stop them from being killed. It is a violation of the human rights to put someone to death without a fair trial by jury.…

    One of my favorite words is “shalom.” Shalom is a Hebrew word that has multiple meanings. It is commonly used as a greeting in Jewish culture, utilized similarly to the English “hello.” It literally translates as “well-being be upon you” or “may you be well.” Jesus even appropriated a similar phrase in John 20:2, “shalom Aleichem,” which in English is literally translated as “Peace be unto you.”…

    Jesus’ identity and purpose has been a great source of discussion and investigation through the years. Although many people do not seem to believe in the importance and legacy of His life, there are many profs and facts that show the meaning of His days physically living in our world. Jesus came to show us the correct way to live and direct our actions towards others. For example, in Matthew 5:43-48, Jesus speaks about loving one’s enemies. He mentions how important it is to love, bless and pray for those who curse, hate, use and persecute us (Matthew 5:44).…
