Background Throughout Bible history, God raises up Peter, a leader who brought His people together and gave them hope and direction to overcome forces of evil that were trying to discourage and divide the believers. A brief discussion about the author, Peter and the audience he addressed provides a background for an inner textual analysis of 1 Peter 5. This analysis is the framework used to enhance the contemporary leadership theory, Servant Leadership. Author Peter was an Apostle sent to…

religion and architectural evolution. Christianity plays a massive role in medieval cathedrals. Building the cathedrals requires hard work and motivation. The builders believed that cutting timber and hauling stone was an expression of Christian faith sprang from the very mind of God, who guided the hands of the builders.

Romans teach that the righteousness is built on faith that if one has faith they have the righteousness for the Lord.” For in the gospel a righteousness from God is revealed, a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith. “(Romans 1:17). In the Bible Paul was not ashamed of the Gospel of the Lord, however he was righteous to the word of the Lord. The Bible verse wants us to understand that by having the faith in the Lord will help…

As we have been discussing in class over the last few weeks, the Gospels, while all telling the same story, tell it in different ways. Some contain more details, some less, and sometimes they even contrast each other. The accounts of the trial of Jesus are no different— while they do have a number of similarities, they all differ slightly from each other.

We live in a culture where everyone is committed to making their own souls content. We are not called to a life filled with our own selfish desires. As Dr. Allen McWhite says, “we are called to be Godly people in a God-less world”. Acts 20:24 says, “I consider my life worth nothing to me; my only aim is…

As a Christian, I do not have a problem with Christmas. However, I do not see it as a means of celebrating the birth of Jesus. To me, it is another secular holiday. In my opinion, there is a reason that the Bible does not give any specific dates for events such as the birth of Jesus. A Christian does not need to take a special day to remember the birth of Jesus. His birth should be celebrated by remaining committed to Him and by doing the right thing towards others, every day. Robert Thompson…

While analyzing the Gospel According to Mark and the Bhagavad Gita, the reader can find two similarities in the texts and essentially two major similarities between the two religions. As previously stated, Christianity and Hinduism vary on the description of an afterlife, however they both agree that the path to achieving this ultimate reality is difficult. On page 11 of the Gospel According to Mark, Jesus describes someone maiming themselves in order to fight the temptations of sin. In the text…
