    Mark’s passage titled “Peter’s Confession about Jesus” portrays a message that teaches us that the people whom you are closest with, such as your friends and family members, are the only ones who truly know you enough to judge what type of person you are. Peter considered Jesus to be the Messiah, yet those who didn’t know Jesus on a personal level only thought of him as being something similar to a prophet. After Jesus asked what people said of him, his disciples replied “John the Baptist, others Elijah, still others one of the prophets.” This passage shows us the different perspectives of how people may judge you based off of how well they truly know the real you. In the second passage, “The First Prediction of the Passion”, we are shown how important it truly is to never put anyone else’s will before God’s will. God is the one who determines how the journey of our life will play out, and we should never questions his intentions or decisions, as Peter does in this story before Jesus tells him that he is “thinking not as God does.” The third passage, titled “The Conditions of Discipleship”, teaches us that in order to be a true follower of Jesus, we have to be…

    According to most of the people in the world, one of the biggest problems that we face is not the failing world economy or the growing civil unrest in the Middle East. Instead most people in the world believe that we are the main problem, before any of the other struggles that might be going on. A better way of saying it would be that we as humans are the cause of the problems that we face. Those problems stem from the fact that we as humans don’t always get along with each other. Some people even say that if there weren’t so many “stupid” people in the world, it would be better place to live and there would also be fewer struggles around us. In the Bible we see that mankind has struggled to get along with each other since the fall of Man in the Garden of Eden. Since the Fall of Man, each of us is born with a sinful nature inside of us that makes us want to sin and rebel against what God would want us to do. In fact, God wants us to get along with each other and His Word is a great place to look to when it is difficult to get along with a co-worker or family member. With all of the knowledge of the Bible, and what it’s teaching could help us to do in getting along with others, we as humans still pick and choose what we believe to be the best solution when it comes to dealing with other people; whether it is good or bad for the relationship.…

    Being betrayed has effects on both the betrayed and the betrayer. Not just one person feels the effects of being betrayed, yet multiple people can feel the effects. The betrayed typically have the roughest time getting over being betrayed. The burden of getting betrayed will live with the individual for the rest of their life and the betrayed will “replay the conversation over and over in their head” (Hosseini 149). The betrayer can also have a burden for having betrayed the other. The betrayer hurts the other person by being unfaithful to the other character. This causes the betrayed to not be able to trust the betrayer because of the betrayer’s action. A relationship between two people can be torn apart because of one betraying the other.…

    Analysis of Saint Judas

    • 7 Pages

    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.…

    In both Genesis and Popol Vuh, humans were created by their gods. The gods created nature and all creatures before creating humans. The humans were the god’s last creations. Both gods were dissatisfied with the humans and punished them. One of the punishments was the floods in both stories, nearly killing all living things. “A great flood was made; it came down on the heads of the manikins, woodcarvings.” (Page 82, Popol Vuh). Now humans are imperfect, having flaws and sinful.…

    Betrayal is not a necessary part of life as evidenced in Roald Dahl’s “Lamb to the Slaughter” And Shirley Jackson’s “The lottery”. Lamb to the Slaughter was a story where. Mary Maloney was going to have a son, but the husband had to leave because having a family wasn't going to be good for his job as a detective. Leaving her is an act of betrayal “I know it’s a bad time to be telling you this, but there was simply wasn't any other way. Of course, I’ll give you money and see you’re looked after” (Dalh Pg.2). Betrayal should not be a necessary part of life because the husband wants to leave her and the unborn baby. He wants to leave his family just because of his job. He maybe does this for their protection, but he betraying the family. Mary…
