The Real Apology the American People Needed On September 11‚ 1998‚ President Clinton gave his infamous speech he titled “I have Sinned” at the Prayer Breakfast. In this speech‚ he addressed the issue of having a sexual relationship with a woman named Monica Lewinsky and apologized for his actions.

If this gospel had a specific purpose statement it would be “that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ‚ the Son of God‚ and that by believing you may have life in his name” (20:31). The word “believe” appears over 100 times and ties in belief with having eternal life. The most famous or at least the most familiar verse in all the Bible may be John 3:16 where belief is open to anyone who chooses to believe and all those who believe can inherit eternal life. This gospel contains some of the

This is also two hundred years after Confucius‚ so it may even be that the two are not quite so isolated from each other as they may seem. A couple interesting differences between the two become readily apparent. Plato thought that a true philosopher actually wouldn’t

Socrates - The protagonist of The Apology‚ as well as all of Plato ’s other dialogues. Socrates seems to be a very simple man‚ not having many material possessions and speaking in a plain‚ conversational manner. However‚ this seeming plainness is all a part of the ironic characteristic of Socrates ’ method. Professing his own ignorance‚ he engages in conversation with someone claiming to be an expert‚ usually in ethical matters. By asking simple questions‚ Socrates gradually reveals that his interlocutor

Luke 14:25
