Presentation of Jesus at the Temple

about how many people believe a larger number of children are abducted each year when in reality the number is extremely small. I told him that wasn’t true, because the public takes such a precaution to keeping younger children safe that there wouldn’t be such drastic measures or wealth of knowledge about the situation if the threat were as small as he said. I was incorrect but because of that altercation my group stumbled upon one of the first key points we decided to include in our presentation. The fact that people believed college students are much less resilient because we are too dependent on others or ‘babied,’ through out the years leading up to college. This is also where we got the idea behind the skit. Which leads me to discus Stage #3, or the Norming Stage. By then the roles were still shifting through out the group as different members brought to light different ideas. Even though we had already selected the points we were going to present. We even agreed on a fun way to open our presentation for the audience. We all knew what we were going to be talking about and how we were going to approach them. By this point I’d say I felt a very strong feeling of cohesion. It was already easy for us to agree on the key points so when it came down to putting the project together it really flowed for us as a group. By Stage #4, or the Performing Stage we had all settled into our roles. We knew who we were “following” and what everyone was contributing. We discussed what…

the bible. “The Presentation of Christ and The Flight into Egypt” was one of them too. This art piece was created by Melchior Broederlam, a Netherland painter. Broederlam did a great job of portraying the details on the painting according to the bible story. However, unlike most of the painters, Broederlam did not paint himself into this art piece. “The Presentation of Christ and The Flight into Egypt” was a famous panel of the Dijon Altarpiece. The Dijon Altarpiece was commissioned by a duke…

different facts about the practice to understand it. One fact that someone should know about the practices is about how and why did it get started. One celebration in particular is "Día de la Candelaria" or the English term "The Day of The Candles" is a religious holiday that is celebrated on February 2 and is well known in Mexico, Peru and the Cannery island. However, this celebration originated in Spain. This celebration got started before pre-hispanic tradition and was started around the…

represented by the first large bead, is prayed. Then three Hail Mary’s are repeated, one for each of the small beads symbolizing faith, hope, and charity. After that, one Glory Be is said. At this time, the Fatima Prayers may be recited if one wants to. The prayers of the decades are next. For each of the five decades, state the mystery and say an Our Father. Ten Hail Mary’s, which are represented by the ten beads within the decade, and a Glory Be are prayed. After completing the decades, the…

that. The original readers were wealthier Christians from Gentile backgrounds. His readers were people who have already heard of Jesus but wished to know more. Luke was composed probably in a Greek city where St. Paul founded the church. There were many previous narratives about Jesus. Luke is not the first but he used sources. Luke's careful investigation was by standards of ancient historical writings. He also used then term theophilus which meant friend/lover of God. Luke's readers where…

sources but, they had their individual sources too. The genealogy, the nativity, and the childhood of Jesus played significant roles within the respective gospels. All components helped both authors generate a unique message to their audience. Also, they provided an insight of the beginning of Jesus’s journey and his mission on Earth. First, background information needs to be given about the…

The Temple Expiatori of La Sagrada Familia (abbr. La Sagrada Familia), uses iconography, a formal composition, and numerology to create a monumental moment to teach and tell the story of the New Testament to Christians of all backgrounds. La Sagrada Familia, whose design is attributed to Antonio Gaudi, is a modernisme (a style of Catalan Architecture that has ties to Art Nouveau and Neo-Gothicism) minor basilica located in Barcelona, Spain. The use of multiple iconographic scenes and symbolic…

liturgy is something worth exploring; something worth knowing the true meaning and plan for our salvation. Hahn then proceeds to make an “outlandish” claim; “I propose that the key to understanding the Mass is the biblical Book of Revelation- and, further, the Mass is the only way a Christian can truly make sense of the Book of Revelation” (4). For the average person, like myself, I perceived that the frightening imagery described in the Book of Revelation, directly contradicts the way we are…

The King Jesus Gospel gets right to the point, we live in a salvation culture world. We need the Gospel culture to return. The true Gospel is Jesus, His story, which is every story. The story of the Bible and Scripture does not exist without Jesus. The story of Israel is completed in Jesus. In the beginning was God, He made a temple, we call it Earth. He made mankind to govern this temple, we failed. The first Adam fell, he was unable to fulfill his purpose. Throughout history many others…

The Gospel of Matthew 1. Who was Matthew, and why was he qualified to write a book in the Bible? 1. Matthew was a tax collector who became a disciple of Jesus (Strauss, 2011, p. 5531). It is believed that he wrote the book of Matthew. He was more than qualified to write a book in the Bible because “as a tax collector, Matthew no doubt would have been proficient in both Aramaic and Greek” and would have been highly organized. Furthermore, he was one of Jesus’ twelve thus, he knew Jesus personally…
