Ascension of Jesus

anything on your mind. Being in middle or high school can make you feel alone even though you are never alone, there is always someone that is in a very similar position as you who can help you or guide you through. My circumstances of committing to Jesus started in 7th grade when I first when to Wyldlife. Before coming I had been going to church almost every Sunday but not caring and not believing what was said. After…

Jesus led a life of simplicity and encouraged us to look deep into our hearts and examine where our treasures lie. Again and again he exemplifies and confirms that idols are a sin against God as they do not bring all glory to Him . An example of how this…

gives us "all we need" according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19). I thank God for the opportunity to explain in adequate detail my disagreements with certain teachings, basing my theology on what the scriptures actually say and teach, and relying on the Holy Spirit alone to reveal the truth of God 's word. My prayer is that I will not cause dissension or dispute, but that to the glory of God and the praise of Jesus Christ I might win some to reason with the scriptures…

We are designed by God to need him and his perfect love. We are made to worship and love Him. God is one person, but He has three separate identities: not three separate beings. The Father, Son and the Holy Spirit are all one who is known as God. Jesus is also God, but we are not able to comprehend because our minds are limited. Unfortunately, mankind’s sin has turned man’s need for God’s love into a lust for the worldly things. God wants to have a personal relationship with humans, but…

a curios one who would want to grow on his knowledge about Christ. At the time that Antipas and Luke are writing each other is the time of the early church when Christian faced much persecution. As Antipas grew closer to Luke he learned more about Jesus Christ and the gospel. He also slowing became more e humble and filled himself with humility (157). In this story Antipas is the only dynamic character all the other characters are static. The change in Antipas’ character is him being stuck up…

an important aspect of the Christianity that incorporates the ritual, social and mythological dimensions in giving meaning to the suffering of Christ and the unity of those who believe in the crucifixion story. The death, burial and resurrection of Jesus are well known stories within the Christian tradition throughout much of western civilization; the stories are used to explain how humanity’s sin is forgiven through Christ’s suffering. The crucifixion story is an…

Water Symbolism in Literature Water is a powerful element that can affect anything. Babies begin in the womb surrounded by a watery substance called amniotic fluid. Water is required for life and is essential in order to function properly. Not to mention, about 70% of a human’s body weight is water. Asside from keeping things alive, it also has the power to cause a catastrophe. Some of these problems include flooding, droughts, tidal waves, or hurricanes. It may seem like water can be controlled…

should not treat the people we interact with in a way we would not want to be treated. If we truly have a biblical worldview, we should be trying to live as Christ did. We should be helping the poor and the sick, we should be giving to those in need. Jesus is love, and we should be sharing that love with those around…

Augustine of Hippo’s confession best describes religion in my point of view and my aspect of what is religion. Oddly enough his religion is not the same religion that I have an affiliation. I currently attend a Pentecostal Church, however, his words stood out as Christian in form and mindset. Man is indeed one of God’s creatures formed in his own image and many humans do have a natural urge to praise something or someone of a higher calling. People who have not yet found God have a surprisingly…

do as they were instructed by Jesus to love and serve others as He showed them by His example and His love, but always keeping their hearts and minds on God and things above. The bible is pretty clear about Christians seeking the kingdom of God first, and to walk by faith not by sight. There are many scriptures that discuss God 's grace which was shown by Jesus laying down His own life for His friends, so that the sins of this world would all be covered, and Jesus took our sins, bore our…
