Faith as the Basis of Strength: The Christian Faith Conquers All The French epic poem, The Song of Roland, tells a highly dramatized account of the Battle of Roncevaux in 778 during the reign of King Charlemagne of the Franks. Although Roland is mentioned once in a historical account of Charlemagne’s life by Einhard, the author elevates Roland to the status of Charlemagne’s nephew and leader of the Frankish army in a bloody battle against the Spanish Muslims. This poem, however, does not stress…

and what gives the white man, the right to treat them as they were not equals. He quarrels that “if black or red skins or any other skin color is disgraceful to God” (p. 501) then God has put down himself because according to the bible; mankind was made in the images of God. Throughout the essay, he questions the white man doctrine of Christianity base life. He uses Christianity as his tool to dispel racism. He says that people cannot call themselves Christians and persecute others, based on…

We are not Apostles and did not witness Jesus’ ascension into heaven. We also do not have a creed that gives widows certain rights over others, we too have 2000 years of separation between us. We also do not speak Hewbrew or Aramaic and are not living in a covenant community. However spiritually we can see that Jesus is showing his hand in living out a Christian life. Even though in Acts this was the infancy we can see how the church developed. We can assume that Luke eants us to live out…

It has royal elements that depict God as the great King who has given men dominion to rule over the rest of creation (Christian discernment n.d:7). Its theme is central to Israel’s tradition and it is assumed that it was used to serve Israel’s temple worship and was associated with Ascension day in the early Christian church (Christian discernment…

Richard B. Hays, 1 Corinthians. Interpretation Commentary. (Louisville: John Knox, 1997) Hays help clarify that in theses verses, “Paul is not actually referring to the liturgical ritual celebration which we observe today in a church building” (p.193). In discerning the Lord’s body, which Paul places concern, misinterpretations of “perceiving the real presence of Christ in the bread cannot be true, but for Paul, according to Hays, this simple means “recognizing the community of believers as the…

He broke the bread and blessed the cup of wine and, giving thanks, he gave them to drink. (Mark 14:22-25). This is also what he commanded his disciples to do in memory of him (Luke 22:19). Paul who gives the earliest recorded references to early Christian Eucharist, recalls the same traditional story of the last supper. Both Paul’s teaching…

believe in God and that he is the creator of all things. Therefore, since he is the most powerful thing imaginable, he has the right to make actions right or wrong by command. Divine command theory is the idea that certain actions are morally good or morally bad because they are what God wills for us. God’s demands determine what is right or wrong. What he tells us to do is right, and what he tells us not to do is wrong. This theory states that the only thing that makes an act morally wrong is…

in place of traditional adventures. The Hero is now fighting on behalf of the sinners, rather than for a princess. While the concept of heroism is still existing, it has simply been transmuted into a form that is more acceptable who adhere to the Christian religion, where the heroism that occurs is in agreement to biblical doctrine, and a reward system has been set into place that guarantees glory and joy in Heaven, rather than treasure or spoils of war on…

object for which we must pray for them is that "God" would pardon them and provides them better minds. It also allows us to see the dynamism and excellence of the Christian religion. No different faith "teaches" men and women to wish for the forgiveness of enemies; no other "disposes" them to do it. People seek for "revenge;" the Christian bears reproaches and persecutions with endurance, and prays that God would pardon folks who have hurt them, and shop them from their…
