Paraphilic disorders are described as “sexual deviation syndromes characterized by aberrant sexual fantasies, urges, and /or behaviors” (Saleh & Berlin, 2003). There is a difference from those who have unusual sexual fantasies and/or desires while engaging in healthy sexual activities with a partner and those who are diagnosed with paraphilic disorder. Those who act upon their fantasies in a way that causes harm to themselves and others are diagnosed with paraphilic disorders. For example,…

these things is an abomination to the Lord your God” (Deuteronomy 22:5, The New King James Version). Her parents are too afraid of God to accept their own child you may say, but wait – what fundamentalists often forget (or choose to omit) is the quote “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus” (Galatians 3:28, The New King James Version). I implore you to reconsider, given the fact that to the Lord all are…

Amanda Stevenson Professor Bradley WC 201 29 November 2016 She Didn’t Ask for It Modesty is determined differently in varying countries and regions of the world; differences range from regional climate to religious influences, with other factors in between. The topic of modesty is often directed at women, suggesting it is the duty of woman to act and dress modestly as a preventative measure for the people around her. This mindset not only questions the independence of women, but also creates a…

are 39 books in the Old Testament and 27 books in the New Testament. While reading these chapters, there were many differences that stood out to me. The Old Covenant stood as The Laws and was the foundation of the New Covenant and the events that would happen. In the Old Covenant God required The Israelites to act a certain way in order for Him to keep his agreement to them. The New Covenant was God's Graces and your faith in Him.The Old and New Covenants both contain agreements made with God.…

I have never heard of animism before, but upon reading your explanation I can see how the movie “Avatar” fits into its’ definition. Looking at this movie from a Biblical perspective evokes much you can find wrong with the animism view. This movie reminds me of what Charry describes in “Inquiring after God through Art” when she states, “Art for art’s sake overwhelmed the older notion that art appropriately leads people to God and righteousness. Art came to be focused on forms and techniques of…

Competition is the contention among merchants attempting to accomplish such objectives as expanding benefits, piece of the market shares, and deals volume by differing the components of the advertising blend: value, item, conveyance, and advancement. “In the new economics of competition, what matters most is not inputs and scale, but productivity-and that is true in all industries” (Anonymous, 2000, p. 5). Then again, competition can lead people to view exercises as trying and open doors for…

With respect to biblical stewardship, God has given us all gifts that we can use to serve others. Jesus himself said, “I did not come to be serve, but to serve”. This is an indicator that God’s children are equipped to serve especially in the healthcare industry. Our stewardship where we are placed is an opportunity that the Lord has given to us. The fundamental principle in life is to serve the Lord and people through the opportunities prescribed to us. Consider this! The Bible reminds us that…

pastors, and Christians debate is whether the ending of Mark, specifically Mark 16:9-20, should be included or deleted. In the New International Version (NIV) translation of the Bible, right before verse 9 of chapter 16 there are the words, “The earliest manuscripts and some other ancient witnesses do not have verses 9-20.” Alternatively, in the King James Version/New King James (KJV/NKJV), there is no evidence of there being a contradiction or disagreement and verse 8 goes straight into verse…

God” (Romans, 3:23, King James Version). Understanding this reality is important to approaching a conflict with humility. Realizing that we have erred greatly against God, yet He chooses to forgive and extend mercy is a lofty example of how we should be doing the same. Because of this reality, we should be doing the same. Even more, there is a parable in the Word of God that discusses a king who forgave his servant of an insurmountable debt. The scriptures note that the king was originally going…

using the word ashamed the NKJV text used abashed. These two words share the same meaning, but you would probably never hear someone saying abashed in today’s English dialect. A difference in meaning that was in verse four, was found in the NKJV version of the text. In the other two texts, it states “He will not answer them…”. Which implies that God will hear them, but will not respond. But in the NKJV text it presents, “But He will not hear them…”. This implies that God will not hear them at…
