 One could argue that many, if not all, of Corinth's problems stemmed from a fundamental misunderstanding of the nature of the resurrection. Discuss how the Corinthians misinterpreted Paul's teachings on the resurrection and how that misunderstanding led to the various problems in that community. One of the big issues was that the people of Corinth did not understand the resurrection. The people of Corinth believed that they were already living as the exalted and they were reaping…

It is sufficiently clear to see that the story follows the journey of these Magi to locate the person who was conceived ruler of the Jews. They touch base in the royal residence, they get headings, they are "drilled" by the lord, they visit Bethlehem, and they do reverence to the kid. What this all methods will rely on upon understanding who the Magi were, however an underlying conjecture would lead you to they are critical individuals from the east who are recognizing that Jesus is the…

This may cause a follow up question, “Why do Catholics believe in and do things that are not within the Bible?” Many Catholics have found God spiritually, in everyday life, while observing God’s creation, such as by…

The United Methodist Church may soon undergo what “ten years ago would be considered a schism” due to the recent election of their first openly gay bishop, Karen Oliveto, this past November (MacDonald). This phrase is referencing the Great Schism of the Roman Catholic Church. As homosexuality is a highly controversial topic within the church, the United Methodist Church is in a unique position in regards to what they will and will not allow. Clearly stated in the church’s Book of Discipline is…

As I look at the chart on page 175 in the book Jensen’s Survey of the New Testament, I see several things that stand out to me; the book of John is written several years after Christ died, Jerusalem has been destroyed, it is written after the other three synoptic gospels, yet stands out to be different, the facts are interpreted, and it is basically written to the world, even though it is addressed to Greeks, Jews, and Romans. Jesus’ beloved John, wrote the book of John in A.D. 85 around Ephesus…

Similar to majority of evangelical churches they believe and teach the necessity for conviction of sin, and in order to be forgiven you must repent, and there…

I do not believe God created something that was imperfect. God is, was, and will always be perfect. Man was created in the likeness of God. Genesis 1:26 (NLT) reads, “Then God said, ‘Let us make human beings in our image, to be like us.” Everything God created was perfect, including mankind. Sin caused the many imperfections, pain, and suffering people endure. He knew that sin would tempt His perfect creation; therefore, He paid for all of our sins. He endured the beating so that we would not…
