Doctrine talks about Anthropology. This word means the study of the human being. Humans are sons and daughters of God almighty. Humans are also created in the image of God.

In Practicing Christian Doctrine, humans are described as creatures, sinners and new creations. As creatures, humans are utterly dependent on God. This is true because humans are inadequate, bound, and dependent by…

His monologue is pierced by two contradictory feelings: delight and presentiment of catastrophe. Faustus’ monologue weaves together Helen’s beauty and ruination of Troy, immortality in beauty and death from her glowing face. Full of the internal movement and contrasts, the monologue possesses faultless ordonnance at the same time.…

The life of Jesus Christ is one that is both fascinating and a mystery. This one man’s life is very well documented, both in words and in art. There are many questions raised if this truly happened or was a myth created to give the public hope in times of need. I am not a religious person however, I do tend to gravitate towards religious art. Many of the religious paintings I have viewed have true emotion. Both paintings focus on iconic times within Jesus’ life, but Zampieri’s painting deals…

reference the Good Samaritan parable, a story told by Jesus with the moral of loving one’s neighbor as oneself. Hence, both emphasize the complete importance of following this principle. The speaker in My Dreams, My Works furthers this proposal; as one of Brooks’ soldier sonnets, she employs a nameless soldier as its speaker.

J. Gresham Machen explains the foundational differences between liberals and biblically faithful Christians. In the book, Machen explores these differences through the fundamental Christian tenets like Scriptures, sacred doctrines, salvation, and Jesus’ divinity. Machen claims that Liberalism and Christianity cannot co-exist as they are founded on completely different foundational concepts. The author attempts to prove his point through four major examples. First, Liberalism is based upon…

During class, we had the discussion over the resurrection of Jesus and the facts to go along with it. Believing in the resurrection is easy because there were up to 500 eyewitnesses, there was a powerful movement with Jesus, many martyrs, and opponents could not produce a body (UCF Class Discussion, 11/3/16). In this case study, this person does not think people need to believe in the resurrection of Christ to be a Christian when I know very well that is false. There are six main topics that can…
