| Learning the basics of the Baptist religion presented no challenge. Followers of the Baptist religion are members of Christian denomination and churches who subscribe to a theology of believer’s baptism, as opposed to baptism at infancy. Baptists believe that salvation is through faith alone, and Scripture alone as the rule of faith and practice. Baptists believe in the autonomy of the local church, and recognize two ministerial offices, pastors and deacons. Baptists practice baptism by immersing the follower into holy water, as

    The Interview was held at The Rock Church in San Bernardino, California. Their church is huge more like a mini stadium in doors version. Clean well lit and very modern. They have a stage in the church where they hold their services. Where smoke and stage lights light up the stage area when music is performed with a live modern day Christian rock band. Everyone was very nice, energetic and positive. During my interview with Pastor Jim I learned that the basic beliefs are; belief in one God, the trinity which is God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. That Jesus Christ was born and suffered and died for our sins so we may enter into heaven. That the bible is the word of God that we are to love one another as we love God & as we love ourselves, to care for one another as well. That people are born with sin so we need to be baptized to be washed of sin. That we all have a relationship with Christ & every day is about honoring him. The rules are simply to obey the ten commandments, the word from the bible, to love one another, care for each other, That relationships with the same gender is a sin, You can only be married in a church once, couples to be married must be of the same faith and must take classes first, No praying to the saints, sins can be forgiven with repenting but no confessions to a human…

    Miles Davis was one of the best jazz musicians in the history of jazz. His full name is Miles Dewey Davis III and was born on May 26th, 1926 in Alton, Illinois. Unlike many other notorious musicians Miles grew up in wealth His father was a superb dental surgeon in East St. Louis. He began playing the trumpet in his early teens and immediately excelled. Davis played in a couple of local St. Louis groups and in his high school band. His high school music teacher advised him to play without vibrato. There are three types of vibrato for trumpet players: lip, diaphragm, and hand vibrato. To perform a lip vibrato a trumpeter must move his lips in a chewing motion while playing longer notes during a solo. Similarly, a diaphragm vibrato is executed by varying the air supply with the muscle below your lungs. Finally, the hand vibrato is carried out by moving the trumpet lightly in circles while holding long notes.…

    Growing up as a missionary kid, my faith has been a primary source of discernment, and spiritual development. A large part of my identity comes my Baptist tradition, and I continue to be a part of this denominational affiliation as an adult. It was inside the walls of a Baptist church where I was first exposed to the liberating yet dangerous responsibility of the “priesthood of all believers” and “soul freedom,” and where I chose to follow Christ and experience salvation on a personal level.…

    Southern Baptist beginnings were filled with exciting events. To capture this excitement requires describing Baptist beginnings in America, why the Southern Baptist Convention was organized, why some call it a different kind of Baptist body, and how it got so large. The story will go as far as the founding of the Sunday School Board in 1891, which was a very important event in Southern Baptist fife.…

    The Emerging Church

    • 494 Words
    • 2 Pages

    The movement seeks to rethink and reassess the “old” way of doing church that only led to discontent, and transform into a more effective and satisfying way of following Jesus. One of the first books to attempt to define the Emerging Movement says, “emerging churches are missional communities arising from within postmodern culture and consisting of followers of Jesus who are seeking to be faithful in their place and time.” Even though the movement has a number of “streams” of thought and practice, many of these, though not all, find their basis in two key beliefs – that truth can only be ascertained within the framework of one’s context and with the guidance of one’s community and that followers of Jesus should worship Him authentically and holistically. These two beliefs have profound impact on how the Emerging Church conducts itself and how it chooses to practice its faith. These beliefs have led to some practices that are to be applauded and others that should be condemned. Only by examining and evaluating the core doctrines and behavior of the movement, can one discover what the implications of the Emerging Church are for contemporary Evangelicals. While the Emerging Church is accurate in its assessment of evangelical orthodoxy…
