Basil in On the Holy Spirit argues that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are essentially equal in nature.

He argues that from the beginning of time, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit were one in the same, and even if someone were to “travel ever so far backward you cannot get beyond the was, and however you may strain and strive to see…

“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:16). This was the sermon that was given on Sunday March 15, 2015 at River of Life Church in Smyrna, TN. God loved the world so much that he sacrificed his son Jesus and because of that, if we all believe in Jesus and God, if we all pray to them and do as they want us to, we will gain access to heaven and God’s afterlife. When one goes to any church, they…

Each symbol is related to the condition of Janie’s life at that time. Janie is very beautiful and innocent to the ways of men and sexuality. Janie has her first sexual feelings one afternoon beneath a pear tree. She sees a “bee sinking into the sanctum of a bloom; the thousand sister calyxes arch to meet the love embrace (Hurston 11)” and she comments on how happy the tree must be to have such a feeling. Janie believes she is privy to a “revelation (Hurston 11)” and she thinks “So this [is]…

Butch is the father, and Willie his son; both were victims of circumstances that eventually led to serious time in juvenile and child detention facilities, jails, and ultimately prison .

scripture and life situations. Chapter two also explains that the Bible is known as the Canon. The Canon is a whole, God-inspired book used as a measuring stick for the Christian faith. Chapter three focuses specifically on the doctrine of the Trinity. The Triune God, three persons in one, is the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit who maintains an inseparable relationship. The three do not have separate jobs, but they work together and are One. There are many heresies that explain that the…

The principal beliefs of Christianity being the divinity and humanity of Jesus Christ, the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the nature of God and the Trinity, the revelation and the salvation, influence the life of adherents by providing the core foundations to what they are to live their live based upon. Variants of these beliefs are expressed through differing religious perspectives such as Catholicism, Anglicism and Pentecostalism. The divinity and humanity of Jesus Christ is of the…

As one engulfs oneself into the Doctrine and Covenants, one will find out that, just as the Book of Mormon is the keystone of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, the Doctrine and Covenants is a companion to the Book of Mormon and is the capstone of The…

It is understandable that everyone has a different view on the world. At an early age I was asked what I want to be when I get older. Of course my answer was I do not know. As time progressed and I became a teenage/senior in high school I had developed an answer to the question. Needless to say, once I reached adulthood my answer changed yet again. My answer to the question is whatever God created me to be. In the book entitled “God at Work” by Gene Edward Veith Jr., I was reminded that there…

As followers of Christ, Christians must be knitted together in love. If there is discord among the brethren, how then can we stand for Christ and impact this world for His glory?

However, it is essential that we be right with God ourselves as well as our brothers and sisters from other races and ethnicities. If we, the body of Christ, are divided or…

My theology is also largely influenced by the Wesleyan – Arminian theology. It has been even more impacted and defined by the…
