Statement of faith

Good Morning I am Levi Haen and this is my faith statement. When I was younger I never really knew why we went to church, I knew that we were learning about God and Jesus Christ but other than that it was just a bunch of singing and talking, my faith was weak. When I got older I started to listen more and more in church and things started to make more sense my faith was getting stronger, but I still had some questions and confusions about the deeper meaning behind the biblical stories and passages. The two major influences that have encouraged and expanded my faith came from youth gatherings and the bible itself. Going to Nashville, Tennessee and feeding the homeless was something that has stuck with me overtime. One thing I took away from…

Faith is the strong belief in God or in the doctrines of a religion, based on spiritual apprehension rather than proof. This is important to Christians because it’s what we follow and we believe about Jesus and God. Everyone perception of faith is different but what Azusa Pacific aims to do is to include everyone of faith. In the last line of the statement of faith, it says, “We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.” That is very important because it states that…

: During the semester, I participated in serval service-learning events which have broaden my insight on issues within my community. I participated in service-learning events held by Faith in Fresno. The overall mission statement of Faith in Fresno is to “…unlock the power of people to put faith into action in the public square, and to advance a movement for racial justice and health equity.” The community service related events I participated in were Day of Action and Rapid Response Training,…

believe in faith. But in many religions faith is held up as an important standard of right. People that believe in questioner go after people that are religious. They argue that, “how do you know that god exist.” Children are told by their parents what religion to follow when they were toddler, but as children got older they never ask the question why we follow this religion. One of the argument of questioner is parents tell their children what to…

The relationship between science and religion, therefore, is determined by one's perspectives and particular beliefs. The thesis statement of the essay is, therefore, the relation between religion and science, according to the YouTube video posted on Blackboard. There is a big difference between religion and science. Religion and science are in conflict, and most scientists are against the idea of worship. Additionally, science is mostly based on facts, experiments, sometimes real events, and…

arguments because it states that religious statements are assertions (articles of faith). Considering Flew believes that religious statements aren’t genuine assertions and Hare believes that religious statements are unfalsifiable assumptions (Bliks), Mitchell’s stance argues that even though rational considerations can go against faith, the believer will not allow it cause one will never know how much evidence is enough to disprove a religious belief.…

Although Socrates prepared his speech in the Apology to be used in his defense trial, it seems as if Socrates also subtly promoted a manifesto of values that are quite comparable to the values listed in Connecticut College’s Mission Statement and Values. It may be argued that this is purely coincidental, however, Socrates’ speech in the Apology has been and still is a tremendous philosophical influence, thus, it appears more so that Socrates’ speech influenced the Connecticut College’s Mission…

This suggests that if one compares the reasons for Jewish people to be ready to sacrifice their children to gods like Molech and also offer offerings to other gods, then one must ask what could be the distinction between religion as the individual activity/ritual and the religious faith? Since the matter of fact will remain that whether it was that the Israelites or the Aryans and Dravidians of the subcontinent, worshipped and feared gods they had never seen, yet their trust and faith lay in…

is all around us. Love and faith are much like God. We don 't have to see love or faith for it to be real, but we feel it in our hearts and souls. Unfortunately, this has become a disturbing time here on earth for what Christianity is about. It 's as if we don 't want to believe he ever existed in the first place. Critical rationalism through history, credibility of fideism, and The Holy Bible will continue to insure faith and impact his existence to all. So many of us want to rid all…

For the first thesis- “faith is blind, science is evidence based”, Dawkins suggested that religion teaches us to be satisfied with not really understanding. For instance, when one religious person faces with some difficult problem, he/she will just justify it by using the quote of “Oh, God did it!” On the other hand, Lennox suggested that blind faith can be very dangerous especially when it’s coupled with blind obedience to an evil authority but not all faith is blind faith. Faith might be…
