Trisha Anne R. Zamudio Philo 1 - WFY As a Roman Catholic‚ I believe that God is our Creator and Father. I believe that He is One with Jesus Christ‚ His Son and the Holy Spirit in the Holy Trinity. I believe that He is a merciful and loving God who is the only one who knows what will happen to us in our future. I believe that He is merciful because He is always there to forgive us whenever we sincerely ask for it. Despite our sins‚ He accepts us and ensures that everything that happens to us is

Dakota Ostler Professor Anderson Philosophy 150 22 February‚ 2013 Teleological Argument: Existence of God The teleological argument is one made for the existence of God. William Paley’s argument is based on the idea that the universe is too complicated to have been created by accident and so must have had a creator.

Something I found very interesting about Alston’s essay on “Perceiving God” was their notion of how one’s experience of God‚ and their beliefs about the being which they call God‚ play a tremendous role in one’s understanding of God.

Thus‚ the phenomenon of belief in a religion‚ says Alston‚ has to be predicated on the phenomenon

WORD WAS WITH GOD The Word was with God – the preposition translated "with" in the Greek means literally "face to face". It was used to show intimacy in a personal relationship. This point of view is given weight by the context‚ in which the Son is said to be "in the bosom of the Father" (v. 18)‚ and thus in the ideal position to reveal the Father to the world. When the Bible says that “Jesus was with God” it refers to the wisdom that was with God. This shows the intimacy of God and his Word

Does God command what is good because it is good‚ or is it good because God commands it? Euthyphro’s Dilemma proposes two options. Either we choose to believe that God dictates what is good and evil‚ or we choose to down grade God to a glorified messenger. This paper will explore the dilemma and show the effects of choosing either option. There are three main attributes of God that are reflected upon in this argument. The first one is that God is the creator and could have made any world he chose

I choose to read “The Other Hand of God: The Holy Spirit as the Universal Touch and Goal‚” written by Kilian McDonnell‚ monk‚ priest‚ and active contributor to ecumenical relations‚ because I have always been interested in learning more about pneumatology‚ which ia the study of the person and work of the Holy Spirit. I was also interested in reading this work because it was published in 2003‚ which makes it a more recent work compared to other suggested books for this assignment. Many scholars have
