The Posterity Of Jesus In John Wifall's The Awakening
These writings principally depict the adversaries of the offspring of the woman being put under his feet as noted in (Mathew 22:44 and the counterparts like; Acts 2:35; 1 Corinthian 15:25; Ephesian 1:20–22; Hebrew 14–15).

    Before The Great Awakening Summary

    Before the Great Awakening even occurred in New England, Jonathan Edwards brought about a great revival in his own town of Northampton that helped spark the awakening. In the town the young people were disrespecting authority, and because of the difficult economic situation many were living in their parent’s homes well into their twenties. When Edwards first began preaching he could sense that the town was regaining its vitality, however the revival was slow and it was not until three years later that his patient cultivation began to bloom. This revival was helped greatly, but unintentionally, by the sudden death of a young…

    Cotton Patch Gospel

    There have been plenty of different versions of the Bible in its long history of existence. Plenty of these attempts are focused on the modernization or contextualization of the Word of God. The Message is a version that has received plenty of criticism because many people believe that it changes the meaning of the verses too much. When such a highly studied and debated work such as the Bible is altered in any form or fashion, there are going to be people that despise it, but translations are bound to happen. The ancient text of the Bible has been altered so that it speaks to the people more effectively, and that was just the reason Clarence Jordan created the Cotton Patch version of the Bible. In the following paper we will use research about the Cotton Patch Versions, Clarence Jordan, the Southern Baptist Church, Harry Chaplin’s music, and Tom Key to discuss how Jesus is portrayed in The Cotton Patch Gospel.…

    Analysis of Rosemary Radford Ruether's Christology and Patriarchy

    The “image of God” that R.R. discusses is the result of many factors, beginning with the Greek concept of “logos”, attributed to men as being the characteristic of rationality. Because rationality was only a trait granted to men at the time, it was assumed that God was a male figure, seeing as Jesus was a man. R.R. claims that this is derived from Aristotelian biology, which demeans women to a level less than human. Although even the Church has since discredited this ancient theory, Christology remains the patriarchal chain of command in the Church. R.R. lists some more gender-inclusive aspects of Christology, like an androgynous God, Jesus’ “ben Adam” title which involved male and female characteristics, and Jesus’ close relationship with women that lasted through to his death. She identifies two types of Christianity, patriarchal and mystical/millennialist, which both work off of the assumption of patriarchy’s legitimacy. R.R. argues that Christology must be recast to integrate modern, egalitarian anthropological beliefs, and a perception of Jesus as the paradigm for a collective Church.…

    The Revelation Anil John Analysis

    I really enjoyed “The Revelation” by Anil John; it was a fantastic, fast-paced read that I found perfect for a fruitless summer day. The story begins with a young Indian boy named Dhruv having a fascination with American cinema especially movies of the Extra Terrestrial genre. Dhruv begins having dreams of aliens and visitations which he ultimately then shares with his father. After some convincing, Dhruv persuades his father to go on a length road trip in pursuit of the truth of Alien existence. While out on the road Dhruv’s father travels to many rural towns and takes in the people and customs associated with them. By the end of his journey, Dhruv’s father finds the spiritual enlightenment he was in search of and shares it with his son.…

    The Wife Of Bath's Stereotypes

    One of the stereotypes that existed during this time regarding woman was their inability to understand the meanings within the bible. Woman were also seen as gold-diggers, only marrying for money. They believed that if woman were to be educated about the bible, they would use it to justify their sins. The Wife of Bath’s confirms this by saying, “where can you say, in any kind of age, that our high God has forbidden marriage expressly, in what word? I pray, tell me. Or where did he command virginity?” ( ). The Wife of Bath’s confirms every stereotype at one point, however, she also challenges them. By using passages from the bible she and she own experiences she challenges these stereotypes.…

    The Gospel of Mark and the Gospel of John each present an illustration of Jesus in both humanity and divinity. However, each gospel portrays Jesus in a different way. The Gospel of Mark focuses on the mortality aspect of Jesus such as the concern of dying. On the contrary the Gospel of John focuses on the spirituality aspect of Jesus, and the revelation of Jesus and the Father being one. Despite the differences in portrayal of Jesus leading up to the Last Supper. Throughout this event both Gospels portrays Jesus’ crucifixion, however, Mark present Jesus similarly to the Passover Lamb.

    Who Is The Protagonist In The Awakening

    In the novel The Awakening by Kate Chopin, the readers are introduced to the creole society in which the main character, Edna Pontellier, lives. Readers soon discover that Edna herself does not quite fall into place within the society and she feels uncomfortable at several points within the text. While she is feeling uncomfortable within the society she lives, she is actually becoming more comfortable with herself. This “comfortableness” she is obtaining is actually her awakening. Edna is gaining a new outlook on life within this novel and the new view is affected by the people she encounters and skills she learns. Robert, a young man she met during the summer, has a huge impact upon Edna. The awakening that was instinctively occurring within Edna was soon terminated due to the love she found in Robert; her awakening soon turned more abrupt, reckless, and rebellious which ultimately lead to her suicide.…

    Knowing Jesus Through the Old Testament

    _By Christopher Wright The role of Jesus in the New Testament can hardly be disputed. He is the foundation, the source, and the completion of salvation into the Church for all who would believe. A question that is often ignored, though, is how does Jesus relate to the Old Testament. Is there a relation between Jesus and the Old Testament? If so, then what factors are involved in that relationship? Is knowledge of the Old Testament essential for understanding Jesus, or can one get by without it? Christopher Wright attempts to answer these questions and to bring out the substance of the relationship between Jesus and the Old Testament in his book _Knowing Jesus Through the Old Testament_. Summary…

    The Great Tribulation Rapture

    The figurative language in this verse represents a 3 1/2 year time frame. We are told in verse 17 of that same chapter that Satan is furious, because he is unable to attack these people. So, He goes and makes war with the rest of her offspring, who keep the commandments, and have the testimony of Jesus. Prophetically, the woman represents the raptured church that is being protected under the huppah of heaven, while those on the Earth are going through the Tribulation. The 3 1/2 year time frame marks the middle of the Tribulation period when the antichrist will break the false peace that he made with Israel, and he will demand to be worshiped. The situation on Earth will be terrible and unimaginable at this time for those who made late decisions, and missed the boat, so to…

    The Great Awakening Analysis

    With Whitefield’s sermons came The Great Awakening. Withefield’s provided the common citizens guidance to lead a better life with the guidance of and a better understanding of word of god. I do believe that The Great Awakening allowed the common citizen to have their own opinion without being influenced by their surroundings. Also, the fact that Withefiled introduced the common citizens to repentance allowed them to understand that they would bed ok to follow their own believes and make more independent decisions. Since citizens became more mindful of the word of god, they also realized they were doing wrong by enslaving humans. Freedom came to some slaved thanks to the face that their masters found god and repented. Along with physical freedom…

    The Significance of the Title the Awakening

    In comparison to other works such as Mark Twain's The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn wherein the title succinctly tells what the story shall contain, Kate Chopin's The Awakening represents a work whose title can only be fully understood after the incorporation of the themes and content into the reader's mind, which can only be incorporated by reading the novel itself. The title, The Awakening, paints a vague mental picture for the reader at first and does not fully portray what content the novel will possess. After thorough reading of the novel, one can understand that the title represents the main character, Edna Pontellier's, sexual awakening and metaphorical resurrection that takes place in the plot as opposed to not having a clue on what the plot will be about.…
