After Jesus’ death, his apostles spread his teachings throughout the Ancient world.

    Albert Einstein once said “Peace cannot be kept by force; it can only be achieved by understanding.” This is an extremely powerful quote, and I will seek to convey its strength, as applied to our lives as Christians, upon the careful review of Sandra L. Richter’s The Epic of Eden: A Christian Entry into the Old Testament. Richter designed this text as merely a tool by which we might further our understanding of the Old Testament narrative. With one minor glitch in her system, Richter handled the task as that of an expert in the field would - with patience, attention to central detail, and arresting dialogue designed to pull the reader in and leave them starving for more.…

    Jesus Christ is considered the Son, the Father, the Holy Ghost, and the Messiah, to millions of Christians around the world, but the debate still continues on whether or not Jesus is a rebel. A rebel is a person who rises in opposition or armed resistance to change the existing ideas or government. During his time, Jesus was a rebel, because he threatened the High Priest financial powers, and he challenged the upper class on how they treated the lower class and the social outcasts.…

    Mark’s Jesus has an apocalyptic view of reality, meaning that the current age is under the power of Satan and his forces. In this Gospel of Mark, the forces is referring to the Romans in power, the political, social, and religious elites. In the coming of age, however, will be under God’s power and God’s rule, with the lowly being raised above the high. This point of view completely stands against the gospel of prosperity who say that one of rich and successful because God wanted it that way. In Mark 10:14, Jesus says, “the kingdom of God belongs to such as these [children]”. Children are seen as the lowest and the least and therefore will be accepted into God’s rule. Also in Mark 10:37, James and John ask for power, status and glory; Jesus’ response exemplifies the notion of being lowest and least further. He tells them…

    The first 39 books of the larger work called the Bible, is called the Old Testament. The Bible itself is arguably the best selling and most read book of all time, yet it’s well known to be quite challenging to read through and understand. The Old Testament portion of the Bible, notably the most difficult portion of the Bible for most to study and follow, yields 39 books from multiple authors, and spans over 4000 years of crucial world and church history. If that were not enough to take on, the Old Testament comes our way through multiple styles of authorship and formats, including but not limited to, books of history, law, proverbs, ethics, philosophy, treatises, dramas, songs, epics, biographies, and letters. There have been many books written and published to survey, explain, and/or bring to light the Old Testament, but none more helpful to me than the review subject of this paper, the work of Dr. Elmer L. Towns, entitled “A Journey Through the Old Testament”.…
