earth the other. We become more and more so as time goes by because of the influences we allow into our lives. Today, we would check ourselves before assisting someone of middle-eastern descent because of the threat of terrorism we hear about in the news. A few years ago, it would have been the same for those of southeast Asian descent and so on. We are influenced by current events and historical factors. Personally, I am cautious when I am around the McCoy family. Language can be a bit…

in Heaven” (King James Version, Matt. 6:10). These words in small part epitomize the meaning of “good news” by N.T. Wright in his “Simply Good News”. Jesus Christ, the Son of God in full divinity and humanity, came to Earth as God incarnate and proved His authority as a part of the Trinity by dying and resurrecting three days later. Wright thus argues that Jesus’s coronation in addition to His teachings are more than merely advice; they are in fact good news. Advice implores while news informs;…

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 is noted for how it does not…

Dimmesdale’s introduction tells that he “[came] from one of the great English universities,” before he immigrated to New England (Hawthorne, 1994, p. 46). Because of his “eloquence and religious fervor,” Dimmesdale had already earned the “high[est] eminence in his profession” at his young age (Hawthorne, 1994, p. 46). However, Dimmesdale’s eminence is rightfully earned…

Since early 16 and 17th centuries, kings, religion, and the parliament have always confronted each other. Religion was enormously important than it is today. People once migrated, and now are still migrating due to religious differences. There was no clemency when it came to religion. It is believed that ancient civilizations had once considered the existence of a “God” because of the offerings they used to make to some God they had faith in. It was made law that everyone was supposed to be…

lecture. Jesus, during His teachings to His own people, stated that He is not honored among His own in Matthew 13:53-57. "But Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor except in his own country and in his own house." (Matthew 13:57 New King James Version). To assist with bridging the gap of Christianity, and Judaism, the acceptance of this Jewish carpenter as the Messiah is…

THE NEXT BREATH – WHO DECIDES? PATIENT, DOCTOR, LAW OR GOD? An examination of the ethical dilemmas presented in end of life issues Introduction End of life care is perhaps one of the most sensitive issues in healthcare. It presents with a myriad of elements that must be considered, if care is to be provided in an ethical manner. Essentially, there are the wishes of the patient to take into account, the opinions of the family members of said patient, the legal and medical ramifications of…

even though they do not have a book of their own. The bible also has a lot of different translations such as N.I.V, the King James, and the new English version. All of them are the same word but just a different translation some might be easier for people to understand and others use more Shakespearean language like they would back then. No matter which version you read they all give the word of god. Jesus and his…

John Calvin came up with covenant theology to cover the over all flow of the bible. The first time Covenant Theology was really used was in the 16th and 17th centuries by Ursinus, Olevianus and Cocceius. This theology was used mainly by the Reformed Churches and was it 's predominant theology around the 17th and 19th centuries. Covenant Theology is a system of theology that views God 's dealings with man in respect of covenants rather than dispensations (periods of time). It represents the whole…

finally, there it is. In the year of 1620 youre just feet away from your new home; bringing unimaginable trials, triumphs, and possibly even some interesting friends. Many people believe the British travelled to The New World merely on account of exploration. Although that is partly true, there is much more to it than that. Most either believed they were sailing toward freedom of worship, a way to receive glory, or hoped this “new world” would be well stocked with gold. For…
