Expounding of the Law

Right vs. Wrong: How Did a Christian in the Old Testament Know If They Have Sinned? Criminals, we know them and we have them. In order to be a criminal you must commit a crime. Question is how does one know when a crime is committed? Laws the answer to the question is laws. Laws are created to keep order. Imagine America without a president. It would be very chaotic and people would be out of control. In Judges 21:28, Israel was without a king. Everyone was right in their own sight. This is an example of how America would be without a president. To prevent situations like that we elect people to make and enforce laws. In America, we have laws like drivers’ manual, road signs, HIPPA rules, and etc. These laws are put into effect to have order…

Anne Hutchinson was raised on the ideas of the typical Puritan theology. This theology believed that God originally established a covenant with Adam specifying that firm obedience of God’s law would result in salvation. After the fall, humanity sank into sin until God formed a second covenant with Abraham. Because post-Lapserian man could not abide by a covenant of works, God established a covenant of grace whereby certain individuals were preordained as the spiritually elect, but were concealed…

is a sign of the promise that God made thousands of years ago, So everyone can just chill knowing theres no big flood going to happen. Again more things happen between now and my next point. The 10 Commandments Ok so, the 10 Commandments were given to Moses from God. Moses was a faith filled guy, He did a whole lot of stuff like he parted the Red Sea well God did as Moses held up his staff so that he and his people could get through to the other side. He also was given the 10 commandments…

as a sacrifice and used His own blood to symbolize the covenant’s completion. Hebrews 9:15 says, “For this reason Christ is the mediator of a new covenant, that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance—now that he has died as a ransom to set them free from the sins committed under the first covenant.” The passage goes on to remind the reader that even the first covenant was put into effect with blood when Moses sprinkled the Ten Commandments and the people with blood. As…

Did the biblical New Testament Church see Sunday as a replacement for the Jewish Sabbath? The Bible offers the Laws of Moses that command the keeping of the Sabbath, but there no scripture in the New Testament that condemn or punish Sabbath breakers. The New Testament offers the new found Christian Church statements against idolatry, stealing, liars, murderers, covetousness, sexually immorality, but no statements against Sunday worship. Should we worship on Saturday or Sunday, a question that…

in which God attempts to show His people (the Israelites) His law and how to live by them. Idolatry, one of the largest problems amongst the Israelites in the old testament and many of the letters of Paul to the churches in the new testament are proof that this is an ongoing issue Them Exodus is the second book of the Old Testament through which God’s fulfilment of promises to past generations are communicated. Moses, chosen by God to deliver the Israelites from Egypt begins the book. Once…

uplifting. The phrase holds true for many who are encountering stressful situations within the workplace especially when the saying holds true, of the only consistency to be had, is inconsistency. When the workday is long and workload seems to pile on high, asking for assistance shows that an individual is humble and acknowledging that one can not do it all alone. God promotes oneness, closeness, and brotherly love. Much like the Good Samaritan story told by Jesus. A man whom did not look at who…

lead him into connecting the need to recognize that we serve a God who does things unexpectedly. Then he went into the story of how Joshua had to step into some pretty huge shoes and to fill those he had to trust God. Joshua was Moses’s right hand man, and he knew everything that Moses did, yet even Moses was not a person who was at the top of the list socially. When he explained the problems Moses had, he tied that point to how God even uses unexpected people. In addition, he furthered the…

The apostle Paul wrote the entire book of Romans for the sole purpose of expounding on the doctrine of salvation. At the core of his argument, the apostle sets out to persuade his audience that in our human condition we are incapable of saving ourselves. Hence, he makes this clear from Romans 1:18-3:20, thus explaining “why extraordinary righteousness is needed: neither Jews nor Gentiles measure up to God’s demand of ordinary righteousness.” Then, Paul introduces the gospel of Jesus Christ and…

From the days of plain old balloon angioplasty by Andreas Gruntzig in 1977 the field of Interventional Cardiology has evolved to current era of transcatheter aortic valve implantation, revascularization of coronary chronic total occlusions and bioabsorbable vascular scaffolds. Despite the advances, one thing that hasn’t changed is number one cause of death, i.e. Cardiovascular disease. It still remains a challenge that has driven me to continue to learn pathophysiology and management of…
