Cloaking Event Involving The Apostle Peter Analysis
The Bible describes a possible “cloaking” event involving the apostle Peter. An Angel rescued Peter from prison, and during the rescue, the jailers were unable to see Peter or the Angel as they walked out of the prison. Note they walked by both the first and the second “ward”, and then through the iron gate without the guards seeing them.

Acts 12:10: When they were past the first and the second ward, they came unto the iron gate that leadeth unto the city; which opened to them of his own accord: and they went out, and passed on through one street; and forthwith the angel departed from him.

In March of 2012, I captured something that appeared to be “cloaked” on my back trail camera. The subject follows me and actually moves vegetation, though

    With Great Britain, there was a greater opportunity for trade.

    When interested in the religious culture of medieval Europe in late antiquity, “The Cult of Saints” by Peter Brown is a magnificent source to turn to. Among receiving honorary degrees, prizes and book awards, Brown is also a historian at Princeton University who focuses on social and religious aspects of medieval Europe. Brown critically analysis the significance of saints and their holy remains to the people of Europe following the fall of the Roman Empire. These sacred figures in Christianity heavily influenced many aspects of society. His writing style is dense and one may encounter a few words in Latin throughout the book. However, the book is supported with a range of sources from the bible to other authors themselves which can be found at the notes section at the very back of the book. Brown highlights his intentions for the book in his updated, Preface to the 2014 Edition, here he includes the title of each chapter and gives a brief overview of what to expect in them. In reviewing Peter Brown's work, he exemplifies the role of the cult of Saints and relics and their contribution to development of medieval Europe among other concepts; while thriving in addressing modern ideas such as the “two-tiered” model that commonly misrepresents the true nature of the cult of saints.…

    When he got a little closer, he saw a very large animal who was covering an abnormally large amount of ground in a short amount of time. He describes the animal as to cover about fifteen to twenty feet in just two strides, while not running. The creature made absolutely no noticeable noise. He mentions what he saw was the creature standing seven to seven and a half feet tall and an estimated five hundred pounds in weight. He describes the creature as being muscular and covered with dark fur, with long arms and hunched over posture. The deer hunter states that the creature moved quickly down the hillside and was gone in just a few seconds. Like both of the above incidents, it happened in a wooded area which provides plenty of coverage for the…

    Analysis of Saint Judas

    Saint Judas was written by James Wright at the end of the 60s. Considering the format this poem can be regarded as a traditional Petrarchan sonnet with a rhyme of ababcdcdefgefg; however, the content of this poem and the way it was written is different. In this poem James Wright tried to mix the dramatic monologue with the Petrarchan sonnet, which is usually written in poet’s tone. Instead in this poem, the speaker is Judas: this enables the revealing of his thoughts and actions directly to the reader, so as to enhance his temperament and character.…

    What I filmed was large black object in the distance. The creature had an extremely noticeable head and shoulders. The video had it looking towards me for a few seconds, only to have the creature turn and retreat into the deeper woods. Upon sharing the video multiple groups just like mine, those groups proceeded to share the video. This Prompted small local video experts to conduct studies on my video. Everyone who studied the video came to the agreement that it was something living, but the creature's identity remains a mystery. To this day studies still continue on the video i filmed in New Hampshire, yet no one knows what species of animal the creature in the video is. After my sharing of the video there has been much more evidence found in New England, and more people have been coming to me with their sightings. The mystery behind bigfoot keeps growing, and my group has grown along with…

    Jesus has a great love for his people and wants to bring them to him so that they could go with him to heaven. Throughout his lifetime, Jesus performed many miracles. Even John wrote that there had been so many miracles that no book could contain them all. However, Jesus did not use these sensations to show how great and powerful he was. He used the miracles to show the people around him what he is the Messiah and he is the man the Old Testament wrote about. He did not need to perform these wonders, but he did so that other may believe in him. Not only did Jesus perform many miracles, but he also gave us seven “I Am” statements. Through these statements Jesus proves he is the Son of God. Each “I Am’ statement equated Jesus with His father, God. Hoping to give us a better understanding of who he is, Jesus gave us his miracles and “I am” statements.…

    "A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half-dead. Now by chance a priest was going down that road; and when he saw him he passed by on the other side. So likewise a Levite, when he saw him he passed by on the other side. But a Samaritan, as he journeyed, came to where he was; and when he saw him, he had compassion, and went to him and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine; then he set him on his own beast and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. And the next day, he took out two denaii and gave them to the innkeeper, saying, "Take care of him; and whatever more you spend, I will repay you when I come back.…

    Through the use of symbols in the parable of the good Samaritan, Christ paints the course of redemption, showing that only through his atonement is redemption possible. The parable starts with a man journeying, and states that he “went down from Jerusalem to Jericho.” Traditionally, and possibly even more emphatically today, Jerusalem is thought of as a holy city. In the parable it symbolizes heaven or a holy place. Jericho however, does not hold the same meaning and is used symbolically as our world or being outside the presence of God. When we sin we wound ourselves and separate ourselves from the presence of God. People then rely on religion to repair this separation. While on the path and after he had left Jerusalem, the man was attacked, wounded, and left exactly “half dead.” The man’s physical body is still alive leaving the reader to interpret that while physical death has not yet occurred, spiritual death has, caused by sin as the traveler left holy ground. In this state of spiritual death the man lay until a Priest came down that path and after seeing him, passed on by. “Likewise a Levite,…came and looked on him, and passed by.” The reference to these religious people could be interpreted many ways, but in general they symbolize religious ideologies or practices.…
