In his first epistle, the long-suffering of the initial church followers was Peter’s impetus in creating an atmosphere during the great persecutions for understanding Christ-like characteristics that would ensure their resoluteness in Jesus Christ. Peter conveyed to the Christians that their turmoil was only for a fleeting moment, and that they ought to be unwavering in their faith regardless of what circumstances may arise. Consequently, 1 Peter could be paralleled to Job of the Old Testament.…

assumed that Hebrews was written to primarily Jewish Christians who had been scattered across the known world and likewise with the book of James, but 1 Peter appears to be written to both Jewish Christians and Gentile Christians scattered in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia. Despite having different authors and different readers, all three letters have a similar purpose and theme: they were writing to encourage Christians who were…

Kayley Isaacson I am Paul, an apostle who earned this duty due to my experience with Jesus Christ (1:1). I was sent by the blessed and wonderful Jesus Christ and God the Father who have saved both you and me.

A particular city, Corinth, is located against a gulf, which means it participates in land and sea trade. Corinth was also rebuilt as a Roman colony…

individuals who already believed in Christ so throughout Paul calls for the fruit of repentance and faith.

Paul probably sent the letter from his home church in Antioch, sometime before the Jerusalem council. Many…

To Paul, being perfected in collective identity was a poor substitute to being made free in Christ. In the following passage, Paul makes an allegorical interpretation of the story of Hagar and Sarah. One of the sons are described as the son according to the σάρξ, and the other as the son of promise (4.21-30). The peculiar perspective in Paul’s account of the story is that the only persecution that occurs in the text is the persecution against Hagar and her son, not as commonly assumed against…

critical moment in the early Christian movement’s struggle to define its mission and identity. The problem Paul responds to in this letter is based off of the Galatians new Jewish, religious beliefs. Paul had founded the all of the churches of Galatia, but he now finds that his work has been jeopardized by anonymous Jewish-Christian teachers.

In Romans 1-8 specifically he teaches the worldview on the natural world, human identity, human relationships, and most importantly culture. This essay will dive into my worldview and what I interpret the biblical worldview to be. Natural World The natural world is much the same as is has always been “The earth…
