should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (KJV) Nevertheless, we in no way deserve this gift that God has bestowed upon us. All men are born with a sin nature and there is no way to escape that.

The ways in which the Gospel has been shared with me all have one thing in common; that is that each and every one has been…

door for pedophiles to more easily target children. As such, because of ties against both the LGBT crowd, and sexual offenders, many Christians have said they would boycott Target. On the outside, that appears to make sense, however, it no longer does to me the more I think about it. This is probably the most radical statement that I’ve thought of, but, Christians DON’T need to boycott Target, at least not physically.

That is an…

the artist uses shape to convey Christianity of the art to viewers. For example, Beta Giyorgis has a roof and 3D structure of a carved Greek cross. This definitely emphasizes Christianity because the cross is the highlight shape of the art; a cross is always associated to Christianity because of Jesus’s crucifixion where he sacrificed himself on the cross for our sins and to give people resurrection into afterlife. Another example can be seen through the windows and the lines going around the…

Lutheranism is a denomination within the Christian religion. The person who led the Lutherans in their separation from the Catholic Church was Martin Luther. He began this separation from the Catholic Church in the 16th century. Luther was a German priest, theologian, and university professor in Wittenberg.

The letter to the Galatians was written by St. Paul to defend the Gospel that he delivered to them in a previous encounter(s), and refute the gospel that the Galatians had received from Jewish Christians. The main issue the Galatians takes on is the relationship between the Law and salvation.

He spends the first two chapters of the letter defending his apostleship and the…
