Nicole Richie had once said, “It's hard to tell who has your back, from who has it long enough just to stab you in it”. She is correct in her suspicion because even foes pretend to be allies, so that they can have an advantage over their opponents, as their pretences are difficult to detect. The theme of betrayal, a theme made evident in the quote, is also present in Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar. The quote by Nicole Richie is correct because foes may appear as allies to gain an advantage, which is shown throughout the scenes of Shakespeare's Julius Caesar.…
3. Jesus had to move to a part of his town that was called Capernaum because he was being rejected from people in his hometown very similar to what Mohammed had to do when he moved to Medina because his people were also rejecting him to. (Let us reason ministries 2011)…

The scene on the mountain demanded that all people hear that Jesus now had the authority over human kind. This was also a significant turning point from Old Testament Law, symbolized by the vision of Moses and Elijah, to the Kingdom of God (Romans 3:21). Peter, James, and John were able to get a foretaste of the glory of the Kingdom and the victory of Jesus which would become clearer to them at His resurrection. Finally, when Jesus spoke to the three disciples about his departure (Luke 9:31) He was indicating his commitment to the cross and therefor the glory of the…
The second fact is that Jesus’ disciples believed that He rose and appeared to them. What could transform a group of “fearful, cowering individuals who denied and abandoned Him [Jesus] at His arrest and execution into bold proclaimers of the gospel of the risen Lord” (Habermas & Licona, 2004, p. 50)? These men had nothing to gain from their claims. In fact, they remained consistent with their beliefs even in the face of beatings, torture, imprisonment, and their own martyrdom. Nine early and independent sources confirm that the disciples claimed the resurrection. These fall into three categories: the testimony of Paul about the disciples, the early church’s oral tradition, and the written works of the early church. Succinctly put, even when merely viewing the New Testament as an ancient collection of writings, there is strong evidence to assert…

Christ started out as exalted. He was God from the beginning, but in-spite of this fact Jesus choose to humble himself. In this way of looking at it, we see Christ as exalted, then He is humiliated. Finally we see that He is exalted again. It seems that He was even exalted higher then He ever was. In this exaltation, everyone will declare Him to be Jesus Christ the Lord.…

“Our course will seem too bloody, Caius Cassius, To cut the head off and then hack the limbs, Like wrath in death and envy afterwards; For Antony is but a limb of Caesar: Let us be sacrificers, but not butchers, Caius.” Here Brutus explains that while they must kill Caesar to save Rome from dictatorship, they must not kill Marc Antony as well, or they will appear to be cold blooded killers in the eyes of the people rather than defenders of the country. “If there be any in this assembly, any dear friend of Caesar’s, to him I say, that Brutus’ love to Caesar…

2nd Reason. Secondly, that He might have the more occasion to manifest the work of his Spirit: first upon the wicked in moderating and restraining them, so that the rich and mighty should not eat up the poor, nor the poor and despised rise up against and shake off their yoke. Secondly, in the regenerate, in exercising His graces in them, as in the great ones, their love, mercy, gentleness, temperance etc., and in the poor and inferior sort, their faith, patience,…
Throughout The Tragedy of Julius Caesar, Brutus was one of the most important and influential characters in the play. He involved himself in many of the scandals entailing the conspirators, in hopes of fulfilling his duty as an honorable man. However, his impressionable personality would lead him to a fatal outcome, suicide. There were many different causes and factors that led to his death, along with the death of the other central characters. The Tragedy of Julius Caesar resulted in multiple tragedies, due to the actions and decisions made by Brutus and the other conspirators. Realistically, Brutus’ own decisions led to his death.…
Multiple people betrayed Julius Caesar in multiple ways. Due to the betrayals Julius Caesar ended up being killed by the conspirators. Even after the death of the great ruler Caesar, his close friends in the group of conspirators constantly betrayed him. The constant backstabbing of his friends reminds me of a couple of examples that happened to me in my life. Being constantly back stabbed can pay a toll on your life and can change who you trust and what you think of different people.…
