Ruth And Bouz Analysis

Decent Essays
BROTHERS AND SISTERS THIS STORY IS TELLING US THAT IT IS MORE IMPORTANT TO BE KIND THAN BEING RIGHT. We may be right to correct and reprimand them if need be, but you wrong because you were not kind. When we think of some Bible story we find Joseph he was right but he showed kindness to his brothers, Boaz was right but showed kindness to Ruth, David was right but showed kindness to Mephibosheth, and I think about our number one example and how throughout His life in this earth he showed kindness to everyone he encounter. “The woman that was caught in adultery, she was toss at Jesus feet and when he starts writing on the sand and her accusers left, “where are your accusers” Jesus ask, neither do I condemned you, go and sin no more.” Jesus was

    We are supposed to let our justice system or in the case of the Bible we are to let God deal with people who do evil against us. This passage is telling us that if someone doesn’t something to us that it’s only fair to do it back to them. If someone murders our loved one nothing would be solved by then going and murdering someone they love. It won’t bring our loved one back, it won’t make us feel better and we will end up facing not only human law, but we will have to answer to God for our sins. Proverbs 21:15 says, “When justice is done, it is a joy to the righteous but terror to evildoers”.…

    In the sermon, “Sinners in the hands of an angry God’’, the author and Puritan reverend, Jonathan Edwards, uses powerful similes and metaphors to create an overwhelming tone of fear to convert unconverted men. For example, the reason why Edwards uses the metaphor of the bow of God's wrath, is to create anxiety in the unconverted men who go to his sermons just out of obligation. He does this on purpose, to show these individuals that God makes no promises to unconverted men, but only to his children who believe in him with all their hearts and souls. And that there is no way out of God's wrath and punishment that will kill them.…

    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.

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.…

    Throughout the story, the narrator seeks out the knowledge of his who his brother is. This search for knowledge is similar to the story of Adam and Eve. The tale of the creation and the fall shows a moral principle that emerges from the biblical narrative of Adam and Eve on which both biblical fundamentalists and biblical critics can agree: merely seeking knowledge of good and evil is problematic. As stated in the King James version of the Bible 3:6 the tree was “desired to make one wise”. By fulfilling her desire to achieve the knowledge of good and evil, she consumed the fruit of the tree, disregarding an ethical directive to the contrary.…
