Habakkuk

Ammon, Ishmaelites, Amalek, Edom, the Philistines and the Assyria were all mixed multitude, intermingled and intermarried together with the Ethiopians throughout ancient world, and were also allies (Psalm 83:5-9; Jeremiah 25:20-25; Genesis 36:35; Habakkuk 3:7; 2 chronicles 21:16). The Moabites as I mentioned earlier were the descendants of Lot the nephew of…

entitled Zuccone. It was originally commissioned for the Bell Tower of the Florence Cathedral of Florence, Italy. It was completed between 1423 and 1425.

It is known for its realism and naturalism which differed very from most statutory commissioned at the…

Book Analysis Three: The Holiness of God Young Hoon (John) Kim The first chapter of the book emphasizes God as the Creator. “How we understand the person and character of God the Father affects every aspect of our lives” (13). In other words, if people do not accept God as the Creator, it will affect whole Christianity and people’s belief. Along with the acceptance of God as a Creator, the author, also, emphasizes the understanding of the holiness of In the second chapter of the book, the…

1. What is a worldview and how does it influence your approach to life? A worldview is an array of beliefs that change how we both percieve the world and how we react to it. Many people don't think they have a worldview, however, everyone has one. For instance, religion is a worldview, because believing in something makes it a world view. Religions that believe in a supreme diety, such as christianity and buddism, these believe in a god. However, an atheist doesn't believe in a god, yet, the…

Donald Trump’s behavior is extreme, to the point that he has essentially become a caricature of himself. Case in point is his relentless boasting. Recall what I stated earlier about self-focus and simplicity. Self-focused people are frankly...boring. Watching an unscripted speech by Trump is, for me, the equivalent of drinking raw eggs -- nauseating. Listen to him when he begins speaking. If he doesn’t immediately plunge right into boasting, give him a minute or two – it will come. It would be…

In his letter to the Romans, Paul’s use of Old Testament events and illustrations proclaimed the glory of Jesus Christ by encouraging and teaching believers how to obtain righteousness through faith. Jesus’ death on the cross fulfilled the prophecy of the Law so that all who believed would receive justification through faith. This research paper focuses on how Paul presented God’s covenant through Abraham’s submissive trust and enduring obedience, to help both the Jew and the Gentiles interpret…

People think that their children naturally accumulate knowledge when they have access to high quality education. Actually, the higher education gives a possibility for them to grow and to develop themselves, when they know what needs to be improved. However, the education does not guarantee their growth and development when they do not acknowledge their weaknesses. Knowing one’s weakness is indispensable for developing or overcoming it. In the novel of Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray,…

according to what they have done. To those who by persistence in doing good seek glory, honor and immortality, he will give eternal life. But for those who are self-seeking and who reject the truth and follow evil, there will be wrath and anger". Habakkuk 2:3 says that Heaven is not false and that it will not delay. Revelation 20:3 declares "He threw him into the Abyss, and locked and sealed it over him, to keep him from deceiving the nations anymore until the thousand years were ended. After…

1-2: This verse begins with one of the voices of thunder calling out in a loud voice, showing that the command “comes from God’s throne.” John states he saw, signaling the opening of the seven seals of God, the seals that will judge the nations for their wrongdoing. The white horse with a bow and a crown is seen by some “to represent Christ, mainly because he is associated with white, a color used in Revelation fourteen times to represent purity.” There is not a woe connected with this…

and know he is always looking out for us and has our best interest in mind. God never tempts us to do wrong because he can not do so. Temptation comes from the devil not God. (Hebrews 6:18) (Titus 1:2) (James 1:13) Did God create sin? It says in Habakkuk that he can not stand the sight of evil. Sin is everything opposite of God. I believe he did not create sin but that doesn’t mean he didn’t know it would happen. Because of our free will we brought sin into the world and God knew it would…
