Monotheism

Through all religions though many differentiate in ways of practice, rituals, and other dynamics all have one thing in common, a deity or deities that guide them through everyday life. A deity (or more commonly known as a god) is, by definition, a God, god, or goddess who seen as divine or sacred by the people of the religion. The deity/deities of a religion are usually the focus point of a religion. The deity/deities also typically give knowledge or advice to its followers by means of written…

In the life of a religious person there are many ways to tackle, deal with and answer, questions of our faith. One major question within our religion is what is our relationship with God. This question has many ways to go about answering it. In my personal belief our relationship with god can be ever changing. I believe that as we grow in knowledge we seek more and more and always are asking questions trying to further our understanding of our faith and relationship with god. This question to…

Application As demonstrated above, the divine nature of Jesus has been part of the equation in Christological studies since Christians began to witness. One can even say the understanding of his divine nature began while Jesus walked the earth. The first Ecumenical council included Jesus in the trinity as the Son God. The other councils in many occasions came to be as part of numerous attempts to reconcile his divine nature with his human nature, and to combat against any who questioned His…

Religion has played an important role in various cultures for many, many years. Polytheism, the "belief in or worship of more than one god," has been practiced by many of these cultures. (polytheism, 2014) Two such societies of people in ancient history, the Egyptians and the Greeks, practiced Polytheism. While both of these societies practiced religion in a similar manner, they also had a number of noticeable differences between them. Often, it would seem that each of the societies chose to…

There was a time when I thought going to church was boring. I didn’t like the thought of waking up early or singing Christian songs once we got to church. It wasn’t my cup of tea. I thought that going to church was pointless. Sometimes I either played on my phone or just fell asleep at church during the service because it never crossed my mind that God was watching. I would always find an excuse to tell my mom so I didn’t have to go to church. It was either I’m too tired, or a I don’t feel like…

The basic themes of my spiritual journey involve two words, grace and forgiveness. I did not grow up in a Christian home so it was not until a later part of my life that I truly experienced God. I had heard different things about god through school and random TV shows I watched but my view of him was that he did not care about me. The reason for that being was because my father had left my family and me when I was 4 years old to go start a family with another woman he was seeing. I tried to have…

Eastern and western religions are very different in terms of their belief systems and character. Hinduism and Taoism are the religions I looked at among the eastern religions while Islam and Christianity are among the western religions I looked at. Western and Eastern religions have similarities within their regions but differ when the regions become divided into east and west. They have different beliefs in terms of religious nature, views of God and main concerns. The religious natures…

B. Throughout the novel, Irving conveys his message that injustice is a part of God’s will. In the text injustice is shown through Tabby’s death, John’s lack of a father, and of course Owen’s demise. John’s mom served as a mother to both of the young boys, always giving them rides and paying for whatever Owen couldn’t afford. The kids worshiped her and would have done anything for her. Injustice showed it’s ugly face though and causes her untimely death as she was struck by a baseball Owen hit…

Based on a Metaphysical World There are a plethora of religions worldwide many of which subscribe to the existence of a higher power. However, Christianity is one of the major religions who have spread worldwide. There is great discussion of whether the God of Christianity actually exist and can be proven by evidence scientifically and philosophically. However, although I believe the God does exist, I do not believe there is satisfactory evidence for nonbelievers without taking the step to…
