believe in the tribune God -- God the creator, Jesus the redeemer, and the Holy Spirit who helps us to “fix our eyes on Jesus” (Heb. 12:2). I am committed to Christocentric theology because I am convinced that it is “the Christ event” -- the act of incarnation, his life and teachings and his death and resurrection (not the idiosyncratic cultural, social or political values) -- which serves as the light that illumines our path to faithful discipleship and ultimately salvation. I believe…

of the experience of God . The body is used as the subject matter of God’s revelation, justifying this through the central Christian conception of the incarnation which is stated in the gospel of John 1:14, that God has become human in Jesus. Indeed, we can see that all the central essentials of Christianity have the body in mind such as incarnation, virgin birth, crucifixion, resurrection, Trinity, the sacraments. The body is not merely the symbol of theological truth alone, but is the place…

previously threatened condemnation of death” (On the Incarnation, 53). Here, Athanasius is defining sin as turning away from God’s favor and Grace. This is significant in that it stresses the importance of free choice within humans. They either have the choice to guard God’s Grace and reap the benefits of “abiding in blessedness” in paradise with God, or they can choose to “transgress and turn away, enduring the corruption of death” (On the Incarnation, 52). The result of the latter option is a…

Confucianism, Buddhism, & Hinduism Confucianism, Buddhism, and Hinduism are all religions based on ethics: the universal human assumption that peace and happiness can be gained when all people are wise and do well. Hinduism comprises so many different beliefs and rituals that some sociologists have suggested thinking of it as a grouping of interrelated religions. Two other religions of the Far East include Confucianism and Buddhism. These ethical religions have no gods, but advocate ethical and…

by a quotation from the film. This response seeks to explore the themes of deception, truth, innocence, and nationalism that appear throughout the course of the film. Lady Justice is an historic character based on the Roman goddess Justitia, the incarnation of justice in Roman society (Köhler, W 1961). The scales represent the fairness of any given trial, showing that evidence is weighed evenly before judgement is passed; hence in most depictions the scales are held aloft above the sword. In the…

Catholics believe that Jesus the son of god who was sent to earth to save mankind from their sins is both fully human and both fully divine.

Jesus took on a human form when he was incarnated. Jesus showed his ability to…

as examples of Christ, so that others might see the good work the church’s efforts to respond. Overall, I enjoyed the visit and hope to be able to visit again as a reminder of the work that needs to be done within the community to end mass incarnation. So many of our young people are victims that fall prey to negative influences. It is my prayer that God will allow the church and in particular the black church to see both the need for accountability, forgiveness, and compassion on behalf of…
