Introduction A voting right can be defined as a special right that is given to a common shareholder for purposes of voting in person or by proxy on the affairs of a nation. Voting rights differ from one country to the other and the people who are eligible to vote in different countries vary1.

As such, it is always good to have the idea on how the…

the council of his authority and confirmed Paul by identifying him as having received the same Holy Spirit. C. Message: Having squelched the debate of authority, Peter continues to remind the council that no one had been able to maintain the Law of Moses; and that salvation comes through grace alone by faith. There is no difference nor distinction made between Jew nor gentile regarding salvation and the Holy Spirit. The same God is God over all. D. Solution: Having heard Peter, the council…

Crossroads of the Arctic Council? When the Arctic Council was established in 1996 it was designed to bring together the states bordering the Arctic Ocean on issues related to environmental protection and sustainability. The organization does not address military issues in the region, which allows it to be one of the few international organizations in which both the U.S. and Russia will cooperate.

This was the key to make the first crusade into a reality. With the conclusion of the Council of Clermont came with a rehearse show of power of who will serve the leader of the Roman Church forces (John Ott, 10/13/2016). The crusade was to help the Latin Christendom bothers in the east, the king Alexios I Komnenos. The king of Continoplas…

there were only nine knights that swore to protect their fellow Christians. Many criticized the Knights’ ways. But that didn’t stop Hugh de Payns, a Knight Templar, went to Europe, campaigning for acceptance. He soon achieved it; in 1128, at the Council of Troyes, Bernard of Clairvaux vouched for them and expressed his support for the Order’s cause. There they were officially recognized by the papacy. This show of support was a huge step for the Templars. Many new troops flooded in from…

From 1095 to the end of the Middle Ages, the call to the Holy Land echoed across Europe as enthusiastic preachers lectured crowds upon wooden platforms, exercising all the tricks of the orator’s trade by coaxing, threatening, and promising in order to rouse up revenge upon there enemy. Preaching was the most effective way to reach the illiterate masses. Although the clergy and nobles of Europe were used to receiving letters begging aid for the Holy Land, for the most part the emotions and hopes…

The crusades were military campaigns first inaugurated and sanctioned by Pope Urban 2 at Clermont-Ferrand in November 1095 to wrestle the Holy Land from Muslim control.

The church was more centralized and stronger…
