Trinity

A verse from Matthew that I truly love is this, “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’” This is in answer to the ‘Righteous’ that ask when did they see Jesus struggling in need of help. We should see everyone, since they are made in the image and likeness of God, as the face of Jesus, and help them as such. This all means that when you hold the door for someone who has their hands full, you just held…

The villagers were mysteries and happy when Cam arrived.The next day Cam went off to sell bibles in the village.

Chaucer considers himself a maker. He is not only an author but a poetic creator. He takes authorship of his work. In his “Retraction”, he raises the most controversy regarding the different intents of different authorships. Chaucer suggests that the intent of the author is not valid, but rather up to the moral interpretation of the reader. At the end of his The Canterbury Tales, Chaucer’s “Retraction” is meant to serve as a request for prayer and to emphasize the satirical nature of his work…

In the previous two major sections of this paper, I discussed some aspects of Moltmann’s theological anthropology, primarily looking at his view of the imago Dei and offering a critical evaluation of his approach in the selected works. This section of the paper will offer my perspective of the imago Dei. Due to limited space, and in relation to Moltmann’s perspective discussed here, I will only discuss a few aspects of the imago Dei. Creation A primary starting point for discussing the imago…

Philippians The book of Philippians was written by Paul and ministered Philippi. During Paul’s second three month missionary journey. Paul brought faith into the city Troas to the people who would form the heart of the thriving congregation of the city. It was likely that Paul wrote Philippians last of all of the four Prison Epistles. The other three Prison Epistles were Colossians, Ephesians and Philemon. The letter of the Philippians was delivered by Epaphroditus. Philippians is so important…

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God and the Word was God. all things were made by Him and nothing was made without Him. Jesus born of the virgin Mary, was God in a human body with a human soul yet maintained his divine nature. Our Lord walked on this earth sharing the revelation and love of the Father. But the centrality of His mission was to dye and offering up His soul as a sacrifice for the sin of the world. John the Baptist told his disciple, Behold the Lamb of God…

Leading up to my sophomore year in high school, I was first introduced to the Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) at Kutztown University. After my experience at the Kutztown Sports Camp, my parents and I were approached about bringing a student led campus ministry to Kent County High School. There was no question about whether or not I wanted establish this organization at KCHS. The thought of being able to share God’s love and sovereignty with my peers like my huddle leader did with me made…

Before traveling to Rome, Paul crafted the letter to the Romans. Based on the epistle, some ideas were obviously of great importance to Paul which he felt he needed to explain before his arrival. The resulting letter persists as the plainest and extremely well-organized presentation of Christian doctrine in Scripture. Paul begins by reminding his readers about the sinfulness of humanity. Since humanity rebels against him, God condemns all people. However, God in His grace offers justification by…

“You study the Scriptures diligently because you think that in them you have eternal life. These are the very Scriptures that testify about me,” John 5:39 (New International Version). The Gospels are important because it fulfills the prophecies of the Old Testament of Christ coming. Isaiah 9:6 (New Living Translation) says, “For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; And the government will rest on His shoulders.” Isaiah foretells this coming of the Gospels. What are the…

Soteriology is the area of theology concerning the process of salvation.

Differing views on salvation are high on the list of primary beliefs dividing the various denominations, both among Eastern Orthodox, Roman Catholicism, and Protestantism and within…
