list of Early Church Fathers who were pro-universal salvation‚ and connects the switch in Christian theology to exclusivism with the writings of Augustine (in the late fourth and early fifth centuries)‚ the Emperor Justinian‚ and the Fifth Ecumenical Council in Constantinople in the sixth century.

Student learning is a multi-faceted paradigm that requires varying approaches. In order for educators to effectively meet the needs of each student‚ they must proficiently

According to White‚ Christian theology stripped nature of any sacred status leaving it composed of inanimate objects and ignorant beasts that humans could exploit and manipulate with impunity. When this anthropocentric faith was uniquely joined with modern science and technology an unprecedented destructive power was unleashed.

Christian Worldview of Leadership Introduction The Christian worldview of leadership is distinctly different from most secular views on the subject. In the secular‚ leadership tends to be viewed primarily in terms of a company’s bottom line and how well the leader can urge employees to produce more and better work. That view is profit-centered rather than person-centered‚ and it does not give much attention to employees’ human needs and qualities nor on how developing excellent work relationships

Almost everything that happened in ancient Greece influenced us‚ but art and architecture is the area the Greeks made the biggest contribution. To begin with‚ the ancient Greeks influenced the way many of the sculptures are today. The sculptures that were men were called Kouroi‚ the women were called Korai. Back in ancient Greece the sculptors began to create and sculpt their statues in more relaxed postures. Occasionally‚ they constructed their sculptures in an action scene. Sculptors oftenly were
