Arrow of God

when everyone believed the Gods were in charge of everything that happened, such as; if there was a storm, it was their fault, or if there was thunder and lightning, it was their fault? Back in the era of mythology, these were a couple of their beliefs. One God that was really important was Zeus, the God of the sky. Whenever there was a thunderstorm, they thought he must be upset. The Greeks would offer up sacrifices to appease the sky god, and gain his favor. Zeus is the God of the sky and…

of evil and his question; “if He is both willing and able (to take away all evils), which alone is suitable to God, from what source then are evils? Or why does He not remove them?” , summarises concisely the issue which has been at the forefront of philosophical argument for thousands of years. To explore this question I will first consider what God is. In this essay I will refer to God in the orthodox monotheistic sense of the word as an omnipotent, omniscient and omnibenevolent being.…

The Jewish and early Christin art brought about many changes then the past, when it comes to how we view art overall. This particular change has to do with the religious feature and focusing and telling the many stories about that certain person and there many journeys. The narrative urge to tell a good story and whose moral or theological implications often have instructional value. The desire to create iconic images which we will go into a couple and talk about their significance to the early…

controlling power. A God. It states that our fate and fortune is attributed to a higher power, and that we have very little or no control over our own life. This is one of the main principles that brought the settlers in from Brittan known as the Puritans and Pilgrims. They believed that God brought them here and that Typology should be use to interpret his message. It didn’t take long for a new way of thinking to emerge. Deism doctrine states that there is a God. However, God has no control…

Christian biblical worldview, which is what does all of this mean? So God is the creator of all things, He created us in His image and we were to have dominion over all of creation. We were created to be in fellowship with Him and lead a righteous life. According to Christians we were never supposed to be separated from God, so by doing all of these things, we are able to be rewarded by being given the gift of eternal life with our God (Romans 2:6-7). However, there is a downside. If we are…

In the beginning gods roamed the earth changing all the flaws they found within the lonesome planet. All the gods would look down upon their throne and see all the flaws that the earth held within. Not one major god took it upon themselves to change what needed to be changed. So the small gods went out and did their dirty work. They changed the tides of the ocean, the time of the sunset, and showed the humans a new way of living life. When all was said and done the humans were still lonely. The…

There are a lot of the bible quotes I learned about obedient, but the one that interest me is the quote from Exodus chapter twenty verses twelve which said, “Honor your father and your mother that your days may be long in the land that the LORD your God is giving you.” This quotes taught me that if I want to live long I have to obey my elders’ commands. I found this quote amazing when I came across it in the bible because I did not know that obeying has a reward of living long. For me to live…

But on the other hand, if we take to be uncreated then its eternal with God and it compromises the oneness of the God. So either way it turns us to be problematic and its theological significant is to come up with the theory that does not compromise either the eternality of the Qur’an meta historicity of the Qur’an does not compromise the oneness of God. 2. The dilemma raise in the fact that if we take the human free, then God is not sovereign, because humans are…

were sick. When we got down there, I sat down in the cafeteria I wrote down what god had wanted me to say to these people. When it was my turn to go in those different rooms, I would speak to that person what God has revealed to me. I enjoyed visiting those people, because God had wanted me to speak to them. I felt his presence there. By going to Bible study, I have learned more about the Bible. I have been blessed by God word. One day in the summer we had a cookout with music and prayer, We…

I felt joy and meaning when I saw what it meant to be a religious. My journey towards the Jesuits began when I had confession at a Jesuit parish in Cincinnati. As I finished confession, I felt so close, joyful, and clear to God. I had a desire to learn more about the Jesuits, and as I continued to pray and discern, I began to listen to the Holy Spirit guide me towards religious life as a Jesuit. I must, say the other orders interested me, but nothing felt right, compared to…
