Anointing of Jesus

I have a good understanding about Christian preaching, I recognize now how some preachers leave out Jesus Christ in…

compelling arguments he makes many illogical fallacies within his speech. Russell begins his lecture on first his idea of what a Christian actually is. Russell believes that in order to be a Christian, one must believe in God, immortality, and in Jesus Christ. However, he does not think that a Christian has to believe in Hell. He also tells us that he himself has no belief in any of the things that he believes makes one a Christian. After clarifying his stance on Christianity, Russell moves…

created by Him in His image. Are humans more important than animals? As humans, we are superior to animals, in fact, “claiming that animals are the same as people only ends up devaluing human life” (Gaylord). A few examples of this is the fact that Jesus died for people and for their sins, not for animals. In Genesis 1 God gave domain to man over all the animals and he was to give them a name. Finally, Matthew 10:31 says that we, “are more valuable than many…

Describe: Stained glass windows are colored glass crafted and arranged to form patterns or pictures and often have painted details and a yellow stain. Stained glass windows are a traditional form of painting that began over 1000 years ago and are essentially made the same way today. The earliest form of stained glass windows originate in Europe, 6th century, and have adorned churches for hundreds of years being used to aid in devotion and to instruct (O 'Doherty, 2010). They are especially…

faith in nothing. It was then I began to drown and couldn’t breathe. The battle to save my life began in those same icy and wavy waters crying out for help; crying out for a savior. When I was at my weakest moment crippled by the pains of my life, Jesus was standing on the waters holding his hand. “Matthew, take my hand. Do not be afraid.” I reached out, and I took his hand never letting go. Embraced in his arms, I let my emotions run free. Hope was there for me that day. Christ made my faith…

The first person that I chose to present my story to was my mother, Jan. I chose her because of the insight that she gives on the Bible and on life, and because of her continual faith in God through everything that she has been through, whether it’s hard or easy. I really look up to her in the way that she deals with hard times. She always chooses to believe that everything will be okay in the end, and that God has a plan for it all. I thought it would be perfect to tell her about this and ask…

Worship is defined as “The feeling or expression of reverence and adoration for a deity.” Before this course I always thought it was just the slow songs at church that always came before the sermon, I now understand It to be a way of life. King David was an incredible symbol of worship both in his time and ours, and is particularly significant in how we should view worship. The way that we worship, as Pentecostal Christians as apposed to Anglican Christians is very different as they are very…

they would believe what Jesus said when He stated, I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins. Believing that Jesus is the Son of the living God and the Messiah (Matthew 16:18) means believing, trusting and doing His every Word. Jesus is not the Messiah without being the Son of God and Jesus…

love God with all our mind this does not fit with someone who has an irrational belief they hold as a sold truth. The third enemy of apologetics he lists is ignorance. Some Christians do not care that they have no knowledge of God 's existence, Jesus resurrection, the justice of hell, Christ 's supremacy, or the logical problems with nonchristian world views. Cowardice is the fourth point he covered. Be tolerant is the message we here from the world today. They want us to live and let live…

Before we can begin a discussion about our need to turn our nation back to God, we must address the relationship between God and the person of Jesus Christ. The Bible is clear that Jesus is God’s only begotten Son. I believe this to be fact. Jesus, however, is also God. I know this is a tough concept to grasp. How can Jesus be God if He is also the Son of God? First and foremost, we cannot attempt to constrain God to the laws of physics that we are subject to. He created these laws and by…
