The creation came from Him, and by Him all things exist. Jesus is the Author, the Maker, the Master and the Lord of all things. The Greek term logos in philosophical terminology also denoted the principle of the universe, even the creative energy that generated the universe. Thus, Christ as the Logos is the agent and the personal expression of the Creator God. Jesus is the way by which the invisible Father expresses Himself from the beginning. Jesus is the Alpha of the creation of God; it means that He is the instigator or prime mover of creation. The creative power was in Jesus, and all creative work started because of Jesus.

Jesus will judge the world and he will put an end to this evil age. Jesus has the last word; he will interrupt all earthly activities and bring all souls to judgment. The final power is in Jesus; the power of life and death is in Jesus. Jesus holds the key of time, meaning He has power over time. The end of this age is monitored and set by Jesus; no one can stop the clock; no one has power over the timing of events. We all undergo the change of time. Our body changes with time. However, Jesus stays the same forever; He does not change. He is immutable and eternal; He does not age because he is not subject to the limitations of time. Time is in the hand of God and He is the one who will put an end to the passage of time. Jesus has done all things. He said at the cross: all things are done – ‘it is finished’. Jesus will put an end to this evil age, so that we can enter into eternity. Jesus is the Supreme Judge, He will judge all things (John 5:22). In the Day of the Lord, Jesus will destroy all earthly systems; His power will overcome Satan and the Anti-

    All to often people dismiss the notion of Christianity because of preconceived views of God and the Trinity, often after attempting to apply worldly limitations and constraints to the identity of God, which is revealed through creation. The idea of the Trinity and the incarnation are often misconstrued and misunderstood because of their complexity, but this is not problem that must persist when accompanied by a clear explanation of these complex issues. The birth, life, death, and resurrection of Jesus altered and transformed the world by revealing the nature of God to humanity, providing a pattern for a Christian life, and by atoning for the sins of the world. Jesus and the Trinity According to…

    Week One Devotional Psa 111:2 (KJV), "The works of the LORD, are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein." Our devotional begins with whom all things begin and that is God. Not only is God creator of all things, visible and invisible, but He is the one who holds everything together. He holds all things together as He has placed them, and they function as He has purposed them to do so. The moon, the sun, the stars, the universe, the entire solar system including the earth are all held together and consist by Him and for Him (Col 1:17 KJV).…

    How does Genesis 1-11 inform our Christian worldview? The first eleven chapters of Genesis begin with the Creation account, from then we go to the Garden of Eden and the first sin, which leads to the fall of man. From there we go from Adam to Noah, the wrath of God over the wickedness of man, the flood, which leads to the covenant of the rainbow, the Tower of Babel and the genealogy of Abram’s family. These first chapters are the basis of the rest of the Christian worldview, in other words, our conception of the world, and understanding of how things were intended to be before sin and provide the context and setting for God's redemption plan.…

    In today’s world, religion is often a subject where one is encouraged to tread lightly, where constructive criticism has seemingly lost its place to passionate claims of heresy. Thus, it is only fitting that a book co-written by a self-proclaimed modernist, in Marcus Borg, and an undeniable traditionalist, in N.T. Wright, takes the form that we see in The Meaning of Jesus Christ: Two Visions. Each section of the book is broken down into two separate chapters; one written through the viewpoint of Marcus Borg and one as seen by N.T. Wright. What results is a seemingly flawless representation of what the discussions about Christianity should look like when taken from the various independent sects of the larger religion. This book showed its readers…

    1. “The Sacrifice of Purusha” – In this narrative the Gods used Purusha to create the worlds. From Purusha came the verses and chants, the meters from that, the formula from that, and from that came horses, animals with double rows of teeth, cows, goats, and sheep. Purusha’s mind became the moon, his eye became the sun, his mouth turned into Indra and Agni, from his breath the wind was created, from his navel the atmosphere, from his head the heavens, from his feet the earth, and from his ear the cardinal directions.…

    Central to a person’s beliefs and actions lies their worldview. That is, what a person views as real, true, and of value will dictate how a person acts, responds, and views others. More than this, a person’s views in these areas will determine what that person gives his or her attention to and what that person avoids. Whether or not we take the time to analyze each of our beliefs and to determine whether they complement our other beliefs, we have a worldview and act based upon our worldview. Thus, it is important for Christian educators (or really all Christians) to examine their own worldview and ensure that their worldview is based on truth and not on relativity.…

    Jesus is defined as full man and full God, meaning that He is God himself transformed into a human being. The book of John is a good source to understand the incarnation of God in Jesus Christ, and His role in the trinity. For example, Jesus states “If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him” (John 14:7). In this verse, Jesus evidences the trinity by defining himself as a reflection of God’s entity. Also, further on the same chapter, Philip asks Jesus to show them the Father, for what Jesus replies by asking if he didn’t know Him already, and finally saying “Who has seen Me has seen the Father” (John 14:9).…
