Jesus Loves Me

slight differences in the stories. Some of the differences, though, are such as Muslims view Muhammad to be the last prophet of God while the Christians believe Jesus was God made into human form. Muslims believe that Jesus was a prophet, quite like Muhammad, Adam, Moses, etc. For Christians, to go to heaven, one must believe that Jesus is their Savior. Muslims who convert to Islam recite that Shahada – accepting that there is no other god, except Allah and Prophet Muhammad is his messenger and…

pleading with him to stand up, see Jesus, and be saved. So he stands - even when he can’t see Jesus. Hughes uses simple syntax for the audience to read the story from a child’s perspective and thoughts. Through grammatically incorrect sentences, these thoughts sound as if a 13-year-old Hughes with clenched hands and fidgeting knees ad libs his excitement. After all, his aunt already parades him with the joys of being saved. He writes on that conversation, “My aunt told me that when you were…

The King Jesus Gospel Book Reflection Joshua Helms GLST 220-001 9/22/15 The Gospel is an interesting topic that seems to be an endless discussion for pastors, professors, and theologians. It is essentially a spiritual glue that holds us as Christians together in order to seek after God. My personal understanding of the Gospel was bland before taking GLST 220 and I am grateful to have a better understanding of it now. As Christians, we should always be seeking how to fully understand the…

The images of God, Jesus, and Mary have become a foundation in Christianity, and are virtually unavoidable; hence why the Christian depiction of Jesus Christ has become one of the most recognizable images in the world. Here, the question arises as to why do Christians have such vivid and polarizing depictions of divinity, when the other…

In Matthew 5-7 Sermon on the Mount Jesus explains, how to live a life that is dedicated to and pleasing to God, free from hypocrisy, full of love and grace, full of wisdom and discernment. His main argument is that we should turn the other cheek to those that have done wrong and evil thins to us. The reason being is that if we respond with negativity we can only cause more negativity, which causes you not only to have an impure soul but can have an effect on those around you. I agree with this…

It tells you the proper way to live your life according to Christianity. One of the main & most coveted of the rules are the 10 commandments. Thou shall have no other gods before Me, thou shall not make idols, thou shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain, Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy, Honor your father and your mother, thou shall not murder, thou shall not commit adultery, thou shall not steal, thou shall…

one cannot experience good if they do not know evil. The idea that suffering leads to salvation is developed in the Brothers Karamazov because of Ivan’s conversation with the devil, Jesus Christ’s role in Christianity, and the suffering of the innocent. The concept that suffering leads to salvation is seen in Jesus Christ’s role in Christianity because through the shedding…

I greet you in the most precious name our saviour Jesus Christ! In our Christian walk, obedience is very important. God wants every one of us to be obedient. He demands not simple obedience but absolute Obedience. What is absolute obedience? Absolute obedience is to be ready to carry out every instruction given by God. God requires prompt, complete obedience; nothing less is acceptable.Obedience to God’s commands is the true sign of our love for God. It is reading, hearing, preaching and doing…

The Road Travelled: A Spiritual Life Story I accepted Jesus as my Savior on January 19th on a Sunday morning 12 years ago with my Mom after I had a fight with Riley. I prayed aloud confessing that I was a sinner who wanted to love Jesus and follow Him the rest of my life. The benefit of being a middle son has helped me spiritually- I have had an older brother who leads by example and a younger one who I mentor. And my Dad continues to teach us the importance of public and private prayer and…

human history. For this child, this beautiful child, is this man on the Cross. Jesus, Son of Mary, the only Begotten Son of God who bore our sins to set us free from the bondage of sin and death. For without His death, we would not be in this Church this day celebrating His birth. The joy of Christmas is not for a day or a season. It is an eternal joy, a joy that no one can take from us because it is the joy of Jesus Christ himself made present in our hearts through the Holy Spirit who dwells…
