New Kingdom

“A kingdom is a realm in which a king exerts control and authority” (,378). The Old Testament describes “kingdom” in two ways: creation and earthly kingdom. It is considered that everything He created and under controlled is His Kingdom. Basically, the Old Testament is saying that the entire universe, from the littlest to largest things, are His because God has dominion over them. His authority and rule are present among all things. Meanwhile, the Old Testament prepares the believers for the…

Christ fulfill the Kingdom of God? In other words: How is Jesus Christ "God’s people in God’s place under God’s rule and blessing" (21; see especially, pp. 109–14)? Jesus Christ fulfills the Kingdom of God. My aim in this short paper is to show how Christ fulfills the Kingdom of God. In short, Jesus fulfills the Kingdom in three ways: Through God’s people, through God’s place, and through God’s rule/blessing (God 's Big Picture, Chapter 6, pp. 107–21) First, Jesus fulfills the kingdom through…

raises questions about every organization’s mission and its reason for being. Braaten (1979) says “The future in secular futurology is reached by a process of the world’s becoming. The future in Christian eschatology arrives by the coming of God’s kingdom.” For years, there have been profound dynamisms in this crossroads between the Christian eschatology and secular futurology. Secular futurology represents an interdisciplinary field, which studies only yesterday's and today's changes, to…

today; therefore knowledge of history is imperative to make sense of how a government functions today. For starters, the United States is a democracy, while New Zealand is a parliamentary democracy with a constitutional monarchy. The United States practices federalism where the power is divided amongst the central and state governments. New Zealand, on the other hand, is a unitary…

of that law decreases as well as the custom. As result of this human laws shouldn’t be changed unless it benefits the common good and if it fixes what the last law was doing wrong. These laws are changed only when the common good is rewarded by the new law and the benefits are obvious, or because the last law is so unjust that it needs immediate change. (Aquinas…

because it simply could not afford to and consequently decided to undergo decolonisation. Therefore, we can argue that foreign policy failures such as the Suez Crisis happened because Britain was now a pawn in a Kings game; therefore the emergence of new superpowers like the USA meant Britain could no longer throw its weight about. Britain was lacked of realism at her own position and power for fighting her…

Upon first glance the films Pinky (1949) and Lost Boundaries (1949) appear to be progressive. They portray controversial ideas such as miscegenation and equality between whites and blacks. But are these films really trying to make a statement of equality? While on the surface Pinky and Lost Boundaries, make a contentious political statement; in actuality they make a mockery of the idea of egalitarianism. The film Pinky addresses the questionable idea of a mixed race couple and of a black…

Throughout the vast majority of human history, governments have provided a multitude of services, protection and guidance to their citizens. These services have come at some sort of cost to citizens, while others are given (seemingly) freely. However, these services and protections have not always been available to all of a state’s citizens. Much has changed over the years in governments. Most of this change has happened in the last 100 or so years for the United States government. Women’s…

Society has this understanding that in order to be part of one culture you are not part of another. Not only are you not part of the other but they are mutually exclusive meaning that if you are part of one culture, in this instance the black culture, then you cannot be part of the other, mainstream culture. This notion of biculturalism is generally assumed by most individuals but in All Our Kin, Stack proceeds to present a different implication as to where Blacks are both committed to black…
