The beast is described as a snake, which can represent the serpent tempting Eve from the Bible. It is certain that Simon is the Christ-figure because of his actions and name. Disciple Peter’s name in the Bible was Simon. He helped the littluns go to the forest when they were hungry. Simon can prophesize his death just…

According to Darrell Johnson’s Experiencing the Trinity, “we are created and redeemed to enter into the love each person of the Trinity has for the other” (64).

This scroll contains seven. As the seals are broken, God’s judgments are unleashed on the earth. Isaiah describes the earth as reeling back and forth like a drunkard (Isaiah 24:20). This is a great time of transition when Satan’s kingdoms will come to an end. Ezekiel 21:24-28 typifies the Antichrist…

This paper will start by establishing a solid image of Hell from primal and ancient times; the first, or early, view of Hell. Then this paper will convey a solid image of Hell as it is now. Afterwards this paper will be exploring the time in between this point A and point B to find the key changes in theme and appearance. With appropriate research, this paper will cite evidence relating to these shifts. Hell, as humans know it, is a place where human souls that did not lead a good life on earth…

Indeed, Holland was keen to stress as early as 1590 that contemporary witchcraft was referenced by scripture “in generall”. It is in this way, Sharpe argues, that the notion of the covenant fitted into a wider Protestant ideology which conceptualised the world as consisting of binary opposites. Whilst Ethan Shagan has asserted that the divines of early modern England commonly sought a ‘via media’ in their beliefs, Patrick Collinson has convincingly argued instead for the central role of…

Everyone has heard multiple rumors in their lives. Some are constructed in a way that makes them seem believable while others are so outlandish it seems impossible to fathom how anyone could believe such a thing. A rumor could also cause both reactions from different people. One rumor is that Procter & Gamble’s, the parent company of Folders, Pampers, and Duncan Hines, logo actually represented The Devil. The logo in question depicted the moon and stars, with the moon also depicting a man whose…
