No matter what you try to do to find out the meaning behind God it is always above us. God has a much bigger plan for us…

World views can be a curious matter and will be immensely apparent within one’s life, or markedly obscure, and either scenario creates an opening into another’s mind and spirit.

He substantiates his claim with in-depth mise-en- scène analysis, which does make Barron’s argument convincing, but to a certain extent. Barron highlights how Lucas Jackson’s figure movement and expressions symbolize that of Jesus Christ. For example, when he…

The Word Sergio Salgado Biblical Survey of the New Testament Professor: Edgar November 10, 2015 When we read the Bible most people interpret or see things a little bit differently than others. If you were reading the Bible piece by piece, or each book individually, you may not get the full understanding or background of what was happening in that time. An example of what can be misinterpreted is in the Gospel of John when he is referring to the “Word”. When some…
