1 Corinthians 13

Philippians 1:23 has the positive idea of lust merely meaning “desire.” In Romans 1:24 the negative idea of lust is seen as giving oneself into the “lusts of their hearts to impurity.” When it comes to passion, Romans 1:26 offer a negative insight to passion as degrading and Colossians 3:5 is equating passions along with impurity and evil desires in the sense that these things are immoral. The words, “passionate lust”, in verse 5 of 1 Thessalonians 4 are both the negative…

H. Lecture 8 – 2 Corinthians Word Count: 525 1. Itemize four main principles of giving that Paul enunciates in 2 Cor. 8:1-15? The principles that Paul enunciates are for giving are: (1) it should be sacrificial.

Those with excess…

The flowers in the opening song of the show start off with bright green and pink colors, which quickly turn to dark brown dull colors as the flowers…

The show opens with a fast forward to the final episode of the season, similar to season one of How to Get Away with Murder (Robinson, 2015). A station wagon is seen flying down a dirt road and we see the three main characters (who are inside the car) looking behind them in a panic. Without any further context it will cut to the opening credit sequence which are panoramic shots of New Mexico, inspired by the opening scene of chapter 39 of House of Cards (Buchman, 2015). In the pilot episode, the…

Paul wrote what is now the book of First Corinthians as a letter to the church of Corinth. After hearing of disputes and worries from members of the church, Paul wrote the congregation letters (including first and second Corinthians) as counsel to guide the church back to the right path (Elwell & Yarbrough, 273). One of the problems listed is the concern of marriage. Paul responds to questions such as: should Christians get married? And what basis is there for divorce? In relation to today’s…

A sin described in the Old Testament as so heinous, ugly, and despicable that the Lord requires the offending individuals to be cut off from their people.

Furthermore, this sinful behavior was…

For my book review I read the book Shakespeare And The Problem Of Meaning written by Norman Rabkin. This book was published in 1981 by the University of Chicago Press.

Rabkin uses these to support his argument that the plays do mean something more than can be conveyed by description alone. He shows that there are many complex paradoxical elements present in…
