    The crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus within the four gospels Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John have both similarities and differences when discussing the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus. I will be focusing on these commonalities and contrasts to explain how the execution and resurrection is interconnected with Christianity today. The first gospel Mark describes Jesus clothed in a purple cloak with a twisting thorn crown upon his head. The soldiers began saluting Jesus saying “Hail, King…

    Shakespeare shows how Romeo is an impetuous character through the many hasty decisions he makes. For example; when he is pouting over not being able to have a certain girl, his love is “soon forsaken” when he quickly finds another one (II.iii.67). This impatient behavior is seen frequently throughout the play. Upon seeing Juliet at the dance he is entranced by her “beauty too rich for use” so he pursues her right away. He even goes as far to say “I ne’er saw true beauty till this night”…

    I have selected the book: The Giver, by Lois Lowry. The book is about a boy named Jonas who is just like everybody else. Or so he thinks. Jonas unlike everyone else, has lighter eyes, and is more intelligent and athletic. In this paper I will discuss the properties of this book. The book is about a perfect society which is completely controlled by four to five people, if you count the receiver of memory. Jonas was chosen to the receiver of memory, not assigned to his job like the rest of his…

    2: Jesus cried out "My God! My God! Why Have You Forsaken Me!?" While Hanging On The Cross. Matthew 27 records this. Highly improbable Matthew would make up this saying and put it into Jesus' mouth since it makes it look like Jesus doesn't trust the Father, and it makes it look like Jesus forgot His mission. Why did Jesus say this? He quoted the first verse of Psalm 22 verbatim. This is a messianic Psalm according to most biblical scholars. When you cross-examine (pun intended) Psalm 22 with…

He knew what was going to happen and when it would happen…

I hated the cello when I began learning how to produce sound from its components for the reason that it was not a violin. I complained multiple about how I hated “that god-forsaken- instrument”; I convinced myself that playing it was the least productive part of my day. Yet, for some odd reason, I never had the courage to give up. Form the time I began learning how to form music from the sounds I produced, my cello…
