blesses Ruth with a son named Obed, and through Obed came David. One thing to remember is in Deuteronomy 25:6, it says that the first child born in a levirate marriage is to be the child Ruth’s first husband. Which means that Obed is really Ruth’s second son, because he is considered the son of Boaz. Some people think that’s not true and Obed is really the first born son, but Boaz being a good Jew as shown throughout the story of Ruth, is unlikely to skip over the fact that Naomi still needs an…
boat across the Thames River. The first two movements of the piece are the Allegro and Overature. This part is pleasant and masterful, unlike the other movements. The next movements are the Air, then the Bourree, and it ends with a hornpipe. The second suite begins with an Allegro, furthering on by another hornpipe. “This swatch of music has become, perhaps one of Handel’s most popular melodies up…

Biblical Story Assignment As Christian story comes to close, it is now time to look back and reflect on all I’ve learned, especially from Bernhard W. Anderson in his book The Unfolding Drama of the Bible. In this book, Anderson explains that the drama occurs in three main acts. Act 1 The Formation of God’s people, Act 2 The Re-formation of God’s people, and Act 3 The transformation of God’s people. For this paper, I have chosen to talk about Act 3 and highlight some key events that take place.…
the life after death, is it really as cut and dry as it may seem? Or is this just what we have been conditioned to believe because of the lack of clarity in the bible on life after death. This idea of the afterlife has brought in a lot of people to christ and has paved the way to our faith…
Gribbin 14 A person?s philosophy dictates the way they think and live. A philosophy is composed of what a person believes to be true. By it they make their plans and decisions. A Christian?s philosophy is composed of their beliefs about God, His Word, and how it applies to everyday life. The Bible is one of the most crucial and controversial elements of the Christian faith. Its validity is under constant attack from those who doubt its credibility, and its claims about God and His Son Jesus…
Pentecost to the Apostles and the believers with them (Acts 1:12-14; 2:1-4). They were able to languages from other lands and were understood by the people from those lands. Now the purpose of this was twofold: to prove the coming of the Holy Spirit to the followers of Christ (Acts 1:4-5); and to spread the Good News to unbelievers (Acts 2:11). Despite the many debates and confusion over the interpretation of this gift throughout church history, the purpose of this gift remains the same today…
The last, explains it better and amplifies the first, and without the first it wouldn’t be understandable what the future coming is or what is about to come. The second reason is that Jesus also reads the Old Testament. Jesus not only read the Old Testament, but also preached about it (Found in Luke 20:16-21) now that is interesting. Something that also results to be interesting, is that the apostles…
remind them about the church, and let them know about upcoming events that the church is holding. Hopefully, they will come to another service. If they do, the chance of them continuing to come back on a regular basis goes way up. Beyond this, a second-time guest ministry is something that is uncommon in the church, but shows the visitor or potential…
