Evangelists

Evangelists were not the only ones to play dirty, however, many Unitarians heavily encouraged school teachers that already held their faith to share their enthusiasm with his or her students, and in some cases even blackmailed them to do so. Unitarians also recognized the power government had on influencing public opinion, but did not agree with any one policy. However, unlike Evangelism, Unitarians were more concerned about child poverty and delinquency rather than training individuals to teach…

and at the conclusion of the service, the Evangelist said, “My spirit tells me there is another pastor in the congregation.” I looked around, and no one else moved. After waiting for a moment to test the call, I came forward, and the Evangelist said, “Come alongside me, and you will see God work in a way that will change your ministry.” We had travelled to this meeting with another couple and a nurse and were strangers to everybody present. The Evangelist called out my friend’s name and said,…

‘supposed’ to be an act of persuasion using reason, evidence, scripture and the Holy Spirit to show non believers the Gospel. This is confusing to me, because it would seem today that every Church of every denomination, based on this definition alone, is Evangelist. Every church you go to has their priest, pastor, preacher, what have you. Every sermon in those churches is delivered by public preaching. I’ve been lead to believe that Evangelism is based on a ‘born again’ experience that is…

John the Apostle, also called Saint John the Evangelist, was born in the year 6 AD in the city of Bethsaida. Bethsaida is located near the Sea of Galilee. John was the son of Zebedee, a Galilean fisherman, and Salome. John became one of the Twelve Apostles of Jesus. His brother James was also one of the first disciples of Jesus. Their mother Salome and Mary were sisters, this made the boys cousins to Jesus. Jesus referred to the brothers as "Boanerges," meaning "sons of thunder." This was…

The St Matthew Passion is a sacred song that was written by Johann Sebastian Bach in 1727. It has interspersed chorales and arias as it sets to music chapters 26 and 27 of the Gospel of Matthew (Leahy, 2011). It is a great masterpiece of classic gospel music of all time. Three different excerpts of the music are analyzed in this paper with a special focus on the form, texture, harmony, relationship between text and music, and the dramatic significance. The main purpose for writing the song was…

In the Introduction to the course textbook, the author suggests that “Erikson’s life-cycle model seemed like a contemporary version of Bunyan’s The Pilgrim’s Progress.” The allegory The Pilgrim’s Progress is essentially a story about a spiritual journey through life, ending with eternity spent in the Celestial City, a.k.a. “Heaven.” Erik H. Erikson’s life-cycle model of eight developmental stages is an overview for understanding the human lifespan. At first glance, one might not see much…

When Graham went to the spiritual revival led by Mordecai Ham, he had no idea the experience would change his life and eventually lead him to become the most famous evangelist in the world. If Graham had decided not to go to this event, perhaps he would have never become a Christian. By choosing to go to this event, Graham was moved and decided to dedicate his life to Christ. Without this change, the desire for sharing…

Televangelism is an example of the manipulation of religion for selfish reasons such as fame, money, and power. It is also the fault of gullible followers that these dogmatic speakers are so “successful”. People today have made little progress and throughout history repeatedly use God as a resource, just like the Anglo-Saxons used God as a resource. Televangelists use their influence to collect fame and renown as well as unintended infamy in some cases. One of the most notorious televangelists,…
