That’s what happened in the garden of Eden. But prior to this in-cident occurring Lucifer, was expelled or as we like to say kicked out of heaven because he wanted to be God. He was created by God and he wanted to be God to be worshipped as God was being worshipped by the angels he had created. But God is God and he will not share his glory with another. Earth became corrupt because of the pronouncement of God upon it. Man would now have to live by the sweat of his brow. No longer could he walk about in a perfect environment, reach up and pick any kind of fruit he wanted off a tree to eat, now he would have to realize to eat he would have to plant, water, and tend to his plantings.

Mankind ruined a perfect thing when he disobeyed God, and lis-tened to another voice. Today Christians need to be cognizant that there are more than one voice in the world. They are the voice

Archangels – Michael and Gabriel are the two archangels that are mentioned most in scripture. We first find the mention of Gabriel in the book of Daniel 8:16 when Gabriel was sent to explain the vision of the ram and he goat:

“And I heard a man’s voice between the banks of Ulai, which called, and said,
Gabriel, make this man understand the vision.” Here we have one of the visions Daniel is given concerning the great tribulation which is to take place prior to the return of the Son of God. And another time Gabriel came to Daniel was when he was praying and petitioning God, for his people. Daniel 9:21-22 states,

“Yea, whiles I was speaking in prayer, even the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly, touched me about the time of the evening oblation. And informed me, and talked with me, and said, O Daniel, I am now come forth to give thee skill and under-

    At face value, the story of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight tells of a knight who is challenged by a Green Knight to show the decline in the knighthood, but that is only the literal interpretation. Throughout the story, there are many parallels to the Christian faith seen. The Green Knight places the young knight in a trial just like God might do to Christians. The Green Knight mentions that if Gawain seeks him, then he will be found which is very similar to when Christ says that if we seek, we shall find. The motif of the number three as seen in the Bible for example Peter denying Christ three times and Christ rising after the third day is seen, as well.…

    Forrest McPhail teaches how to become affective missionary from the scratch: from the preparation to lead a church at the mission field. Furthermore, this book not only teaches how to make people to become true Christians, but also how to overcome their bad situation by the biblical perspectives. Moreover, adding the author’s personal experiences at the mission fields made me to see what are the things Cambodians are going through to be a true Christians, and how the author dealt with those people to make them believe God. As Forrest McPhail mentioned in his book, understanding the people and the culture are the most important aspect for missions.…

    An Infernal Predicament Many people are intimidated by hell, yet Dante uncovers the after life, as he perceives it to be. Dante’s Inferno is an interpretation in guiding one through the importance of fulfilling a morally virtuous, Christian-belief enduring lifespan. Circle I, Limbo, is a valley filled with souls who allegedly never did anything morally wrong, but were not baptized and therefore not allowed into heaven. Dante’s beliefs in Inferno upon salvation, the afterlife and sinful nature contradict the Biblical perspective, while agreeing with the Bible on contrapasso and just judgment.…

    Progress, of any kind, can be extremely destructive and disruptive if managed by corruptive people. This is evidenced by Hitler and Marx, or the NICE in That Hideous Strength by CS Lewis. Condorcet views progress as continually striving for perfection. While I do not take these views on progress, as I think that this is what leads to destruction, I do think that we are able to progress. I think, as Christians, we have the ability to progress.…

    The issue Richard Gaffin addresses simply starts from this sentence “All mankind, descending from him by ordinary generation, sinned in him, and fell with him, in his first transgression” the reason this sentence so important is without this truth, the redemptive –history in Bible is unacceptable. This means if there is No Adam there will be No Gospel according to Romans 5:12-19 and 1 Corinthians 15:42-49. The matter is so many people are denying this truth; it is no surprising this truth is denied by Non Christians as it always has been, but even Christians are now denying that descent of all human beings from Adam. The Christians those who denies it include scientists, biblical scholars and even Reformed Christians.…

However, the Bible can be confusing or unclear, allowing for multiple interpretations. Considering the end of time, we will look at four different views on what the millennium is and where it is placed on the timeline.…

    Having to read about how a young childish boy falls in love with his best friends older sister really makes you think about how you were once this boys age, and once had that young love. Reading about Gabriel and his non returning love from his wife makes you hope that you never have to go through something like that yourself. James Joyce does a phenomenal job at explaining how the realization of both the boy and the older man don’t get the love they feel they deserve/ want. The ages of both protagonists might be different, but the overall feeling of losing someone or something is the same.…

    Free will is an extremely important concept in John Milton’s Paradise Lost that greatly impacts the fateful decision made by Adam and Eve. Many questions are raised in the face of a notion such as free will, which prompt the reader and Milton to understand God’s logic and Adam and Eve’s reasoning for turning their backs on it. God makes his new creations “just and right / sufficient to have stood, though free to fall,” and, therefore, obtain the explicitly stated ability to turn against God. The first instance of free will the reader sees is Satan’s decision to rebel against God and attempt to defeat Him and all of the angels that joined him in his efforts. Although God experiences this defiance and is forced to punish Satan for his…
