Robin Hood Quotes

Improved Essays
Robin Hood has been a wonderful novel to read. Reading about how Robin and his merry men

try to help the less fortunate and running away from the sheriff is very interesting to read about.

Robin Hood always meets his men in a unnatural way. Robin Hood meets one of his best merry

men by fighting him, which is Little John. Little John is a big man who always has Robin Hood’s

back. Many people look at Robin Hood and his merry men as bad guys and some look at Robin

as a great man helping people. Every time someone is in need and comes across Robin Hood , he

always tries to find away to supply them and sometimes even more than what they need. Even

though Robin Hood help all these people , I do not believe Robin Hood is a true follower of

Christ. Many people

However, Robin disguised himself in a reddish outfit, and change his hair to a reddish color.

I have learn a lot from Robin Hood, but the most important one was giving to people in need.

Deuteronomy 16:17 states “ Every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing of the

lord your God which he has given you.” Deuteronomy 16:17 is saying that you should give what

you are able to give which come from the lord blessings. Proverbs 28:27 says “ He who is

generous will be blessed, for he gives some of his food to the poor.” Proverbs 28:27 is saying a

person who gives their food to others in need will be blessed by the lord Jesus Christ. Robin

Hood might of not known what he was doing was a christian doing but he was giving to others.

Matthew 19:21 says “ If you would be perfect , go sell what you possess and give to the poor,

and will have treasure in Heaven; and come, follow me.” Matthew 19:21 is saying that if you

really wanna follow Christ you will drop everything to become closer with the lord. Robin Hood

also taught me how to look at people from inside and not from the outside. Robin Hood let

    THE VALUE OF GODLY PARENTS Of all the possessions you own, what is the most valuable thing you hope to pass down to your children? Family heirlooms are special, but how many individuals would be willing to trade all they ever inherited from their parents for the chance to speak to them just one more time? Patrick Henry is famous for his statement, “give me liberty me death,” in response to British tyranny that sparked the Revolutionary War. What many do not know is that near the end of his life, he made another statement of greater significance: “‘I have now disposed of all my property to my family. There is one thing more I wish I could give them, and that is the Christian religion.…

    The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls is the kind of universal story that every single person can relate to in certain ways. You can either relate to the struggles of having an alcoholic parents, or draw similarities to parents who are absent from day to day life for one reason or another. You may even be able to relate to the way that Jeanette was bullied just because she looked and lived different than others. In her story, Jeannette not only shows the hardships that she had growing up with an alcoholic father and an off-the-line mother, but she shows how her and her sibling all dealt with this upbringing, and how all of them ended up differently because of the way they were raised. We watch them all finally understand that the way they were…

    Ronald J. Sider writes a compelling and thought-provoking book about affluent and wealthy Christians in a world that is getting increasing needy. One of his chapters covers the topic of economic relationships among God’s chosen people. After reading the chapter, I was surprised to see several differences among the Jerusalem church and the twenty-first-century church. I discovered that the early church was much more generous with their money and resources and this challenged me to think critically about my own personal wealth and how the community of wealthy believers are using their money. Sharing of money and wealth can be seen as early in the law but it wasn’t until Jesus’s time that the sharing really began and was lived out.…

    On a blazing hot afternoon, I was with my Peer Ministry. It seemed like our whole group, interacting with the sizable population of homeless on the streets of Riverside, CA, was working like a fast food crew; we were distributing food from our cars at a superhuman pace. This activity seemed like any ordinary job our group did together — until I handed a brown paper bag to a homeless African American man. His expression registered shock. He put his hand on my shoulder and said, “Son, how did you know I needed help?”…

    I volunteered at the Forest Mall for the Tootsie Roll Drive. This organization provides service for those people with intellectual disabilities. What I physically did while volunteering at the Forest Mall was hand out Tootsie Rolls outside to the people that donated money. I also would kindly ask people to donate as they came in or out of the mall. I kept a kind and loving smile on my face to welcome anyone who was willing to donate.…

    Everyday millions of people around the world suffer in circumstances, in which they could die from lack of proper care and resources. In Famine, Affluence, and Morality, Peter Singer acknowledges this issue facing humanity and argues for the moral obligation to give large amounts of money to those in need. Singer believes that all who are able should be giving up many, if not all of their luxuries to help give the less fortunate their necessities. I will begin by summarizing the argument that Singer dictates in his article and then explain my reasoning for believing his notions to be sound and valid.…

    To begin with, Scrooge witnesses the effects of his actions from being a greedy miser and learns the importance of helping others by making charitable donations to help the poor. To illustrate, Scrooge refuses to donate any money to a charity whose goal was to help those in poverty. He believed that one should work for their money and that those who needed money just didn’t want to work for it. When asked if he would donate any money he replied with, “Are there no prisons? Are there no workhouses?”(Dickens, pg. 67).…

    Each essay presented in the chapter six conversation section expresses a perspective on what each individual's responsibility is to their community. Out of the seven beliefs presented, I find the idea that the rich should give their wealth to those in need the most compelling. In certain circumstances, those less fortunate need as much help as they can get. It’s a strange idea to think that there’s people who have billions of dollars in their bank account while there are still undeveloped countries where children are starving to death. They struggle to find clean water and food.…

    We began as I believe all days should begin; in the presence of the Lord. After a talk and prayer, we headed off; some of us on busses and some in cars. I had picked to go to the Food Pantry the Tuesday before, although I did not foresee any of the events that would happen there at that time. I had thought it’d be some gigantic warehouse with food stacked on shelves and we would have to move it out of there to an even more gigantic warehouse. This was not the case.…

    The Broader Context: The Gospel of Luke In order to best understand how to properly interpret Luke 16:1-13, it is best to first read the passage in light of its surrounding context—the entire book of Luke. In his introduction, Luke clearly states his purpose in writing this gospel: “so that you may know the exact truth about the things you have been taught,” (Luke 1:4). This is Luke 's purpose statement, but what is the truth the Luke is trying to demonstrate? The main theme Luke wants to convey, this “exact truth,” in his gospel is that Jesus of Nazareth is the Messianic Servant to all humankind.…

    Scholars have widely agreed that the Gospel of Luke has a special focus on the concern for the poor. This concern for the poor and marginalized first becomes obvious in the account of Jesus’ birth. In the Gospel of Matthew (2:1-12), it is the Magi, wealthy men from a distant country that come to worship Jesus, while Luke tells readers about shepherds- lowly men working in the fields coming to see the baby Jesus. Also, Luke has women, Elizabeth and Mary who as the focal point of the infancy narrative, while Matthew uses two men, Joseph and Herod the Great. The Gospel shows God being immensely concerned for those who were considered poor, and as a result was marginalized.…
