Kingdom of God

three Synoptic Gospels seem so similar. Matthew, Mark, and Luke tell roughly the same stories of Jesus (and the same stories that Jesus told himself). Their overall messages are the same. The Lesson of the Fig Tree (§ 220) warns people that God’s Kingdom is near and in The Confession at Caesarea Philippi and The First Prediction of the Passion (§ 122) Jesus asks his disciples who people think he is, before ordering them to keep his true identity to themselves. They tell the same stories.…

first introduces God does not exist because of this, he believes humans are thrown into existence and begin to create our own paths in life. We create our own lives through the actions we make, the choices we decide, and the people within our surroundings. His idea claims there is no good or bad in the world since there is no God however, the choices you decide on are valued as good since you picked it. Sartre also claims…

understanding of that Jesus Christ died to open the kingdom of heaven to all submissive believers. It's a single illustration in Scripture; it must educate us to despair of none, and that none should despair of them; but lest it should be battered, it is contrasted with the appalling condition of the other thief, who died hardened in unbelief, although a crucified Savior used to be so near…

Preaching in both the OT and NT is defined as an oral address to the people of God to shape their identity and style of life. Preaching challenges people to acknowledge the Lord in their lives and seek his diving will for their purpose. Freedman (2000) defines preaching as speaking the word of God, exhorting, and witnessing, while shaping the identity of the people of God. Preaching is to make a speech about religion in a church or other public place: to deliver a sermon. Preaching is an…

said in Matthew 28:19 “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations.” (NKJV) It is not just presenting the Gospel in word only but living out the Gospel indeed. We need to be light bearers to our neighbors and show them the way of the one true God. Rock the Block is one of the best outreaches we do at our church. I have been involved with it for several years. From Christmas, Easter, and the Back to School Bash it is always one of the many highlights to say I proudly stand up for Christ.…

personally, the most meaningful sacrament is that of the Eucharist, or the accepting of the Body and Blood of Christ in the form of bread and wine (or grape juice, as is the case at my church), because it makes me feel that I have a direct connection with God. Now, before I go into detail about why I feel this way allow me give you some background of how the Eucharist came to be, why it is considered a…

cite evidence relating to these shifts. Hell, as humans know it, is a place where human souls that did not lead a good life on earth reside after death. However, God did not create Hell for sinful humans to be sentenced to. It is recorded in the Genesis that God first created Heaven and Earth in the beginning. (Genesis 1:1) Thereafter God created the heavenly beings. Which included…
