    • 287 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Pseudonymity is defined as “the practice of creating new works in the name of a famous deceased author”, and this practice was widespread among Jewish writers, with the practice being utilized to portray actual writings of Biblical figures such as Daniel, Enoch, Noah, David, Solomon, Isaiah, Ezra and Moses (Harris, 2014, p. 387).

    • 2 Pages

    and full of contradictions, to Christians the “contradictions” are different ways of describing the same object. The bible is a very reliable source and once the verses are broken down and looked further into the “contradictions” will not seem so contradictory anymore. The first contradiction comes from the verses of Mark 14:30 and Matthew 26:34. The problem is how many times did the rooster crow and what did Jesus really say? The answer to this is that, both books do not state how many times…

    on my life. Matt. 5: 40-45 Jesus talks about loving your enemy, those that hate you, use you, or persecute you. No matter what happens don’t hate those around you, they are children of God just like you are. I like the way he starts off these verses. Usually when someone is taking something from you, you don’t love them for it. Instead, he says if they, “Sue you and take your coat, then give them your cloak also”. (Matt. 5: 40) From this single point he has made, Christ teaches me so much, I…

Among these two passages from both of these gospels, it is clear that Matthew did not copy the writings of Mark’s gospel from word to word but rather…

    Roberts writes that the Present Kingdom is when the prophesied child is born. Graeme Goldsworthy says in According to Plan, “The Gospel is the word about Jesus Christ and what he did for us in order to restore us to a right relationship with God” (Goldsworthy 73). This is it, this is what God has been promising. These are the words come into being. John 1:1-5, 9, says, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

    Jesus was teaching the crowds, as it grew to thousands of thousands until they were stepping over each other. And out of the crowds someone called out ‘‘teacher, please tell my brother to divide our Father estate with me.’’ Jesus replied, ‘‘Friend, who made me a Judge over you.’’ Then Jesus told them a story: the ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully. And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits? And he said, This…
