that Jesus was a great prophet, Elijah returned, or John the Baptist raised from the dead. King Herod was disturbed by this as Herod had been the one to order the death of John the Baptist. This event can also be found in Matthew 14:1-12 and Luke 9:7-9 and Luke 3:19-20. The passage from the Gospel of Mark in Throckmorton’s Gospel Parallels is as follows: 14King Herod heard of it, for Jesus’ name had been known.

The movie, The Gospel of John, follows just one gospel: The Gospel of John. The Gospel of John (film) follows exactly what the scripture says. When I looked up the movie on Netflix, I found that there are also several versions of the movie to accompany different versions of the Bible, including the New International Version, and the New King James Version. However, even though the narration of the movie follows the scripture directly, there were some scenes that were added in. For example, John…

I swung my white lightsaber again and again, harder and harder, faster and faster. The battle simulator droids responded by pushing my limits further with more aggressive movements. I screamed in frustration and sliced off their heads, frying their circuits beyond repair. I frowned as I looked what I had accomplished. Three droids destroyed in one stroke.

There are many differences that I observed while reading the accounts of Matthew and Mark. To begin, in the Gospel of Matthew the words have to be read more slowly and capturing the meaning of the stories than in the Gospel of Mark. Second, the Gospel of Matthew focused more on the teachings of Jesus than on his actions in Gospel of Mark. Third, in my perspective the portrait of Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew is a teaching savior whereas to in the Gospel of Mark just does things. To sum it up,…

John chapter 8:6- 11 is part of the story of the adulteress woman. Where we all know was just a women brought by the Pharisees to try and trap Jesus. By using the law to trick him in a dilemma; as they thought that they had tricked him he had written in the sand. He said he without any sin cast the first stone. One by one they left till Jesus was left. Jesus then asks the woman “woman where are they? Has no one condemned you? She replies no. Then Jesus finishes with this “neither do I condemn…

However, these healings taught many lessons to those who witnessed them and those who read…
