Luke Cage

signing and dogs were barking; I had my earphones plugged in my ears and the Luke Bryan song “Do I” was playing. The fresh breeze were gently touching my skin and blowing death leaves away. At a few miles away I could see something laying on the floor, something like a person wearing a blue pants but I was not quick sure of what it could be, without any doubt in my mind, I kept walking towards my destination still listen to Luke Bryan Station on Pandora. At the entrance of the park, I was so…

So they have narrated the origin and birth of Jesus, showing his birth and childhood in different ways but both place Jesus at the center of human hope. Saint Luke does not have to explain or reason; simply recounts, placing the birth of Jesus in the context of history and hope of humanity. He knows that Jesus is the Messiah of Israel and so should be noted, but know at the same time it is also the desired…

Every disciple of Christ is called to grab the baton of the Great Commission, and run with it. It is definite that Jesus’s disciples should live with the Mission of God attached to their lives; because it is God’s command to go into all the world and make disciples. Let 's begin; the mantle of the Great Commission in the Gospel of Matthew is in chapter 28 verse 18, which says, “Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.” A word that should…

Many Gospels? Why are there so many gospels? Why are there four different re-tellings of the same story? One might think they could be simplified, condensed, edited into one concise book, instead of overlapping. The three gospels, Matthew, Mark and Luke are the first books of the New Testament, and make up the synoptic gospel. These books give three different accounts of the same story, showing that the story of Jesus’ birth, life, death and resurrection has many levels. Some scholars think that…

There are many stories from the gospel of Luke that surprised me. One of the stories that stood out to me most was the story of Joseph and Mary. It is crazy to think how much trust Mary had for God’s plan. She was willing to do what he wanted her to do with little hesitation. One reason it stood out to me was because it should how faithful someone can be even at a young age. Often times, I find myself justifying my poor decisions on my age, such as not attending church regularly. Yet, Mary was…

discover The Lindisfarne Gospels. Initially one would see this as two-dimensional art but with a closer look, they would see attempts at making the art three-dimensional. With The Lindisfarne Gospels, one will notice that there are four gospels (Matthew, Luke, Mark, and John). Focusing on Matthew’s page of the book, it is obvious how much care and detail went into the painting. The attempts to make the clothing on Matthew look like it has some dimension and like it has rumples is…

The most important theme found in the three synoptic gospels Matthew, Mark, and Luke is the divine necessity of Jesus; this theme can also be found in the non-canonical gospel of Judas. This theme is an important building block for Christianity. The divine necessity of Jesus is that he must be rejected by man and killed by man. There are many passages in the four gospels that show this theme. In the synoptics, the four most important are, the passion prediction scenes, the parable of the wicked…

is a simple story with a moral or a story told to teach a lesson.” Jesus use parables all the time (frequently, consistently) to teach his disciples. “And he told them a parable to the effect that they ought always to pray and not to lose heart.” (Luke 11:1) Jesus used this parable to show a lesson to always pray and God will always be with them. Jesus taught in parables to get his point across and it was easier for the disciples to understand what Jesus was…
