Although it is not included in the canonical gospels of the New Testament‚ The Gospel of Thomas shares similarities with the writings of Matthew‚ Mark‚ Luke‚ and John. However‚ even more fascinating and beneficial to study are the differences between them. The Gospel of Thomas depicts Jesus as the son of God whose significance lied not in his

The Gospel of Matthew is the first of the three Synoptic Gospels of the New Testament‚ with the other two being Mark and Luke. Mark is believed to have been the first of the three written‚ as Matthew and Luke tend to use much of the content that was written in Mark’s gospel. However‚ “it seems that there is a literary relationship between the writers‚ although no one knows exactly who copied from whom and whether or not any of them relied on another common source.” (Roberts‚ 2002‚ p. 124).

I wanted to write about this album because it’s one of the best albums as far as looking into meanings of songs. All Luke Bryan’s songs have a story behind them; besides the first one on the album‚ which is My Kinda Night. I also have learned a lot about him‚ just through following him on Twitter. He is a huge

Cool Hand Luke Exposé The movie Cool Hand Luke presents several different and interrelated existentialist themes on aspects of faith and belief. Luke is portrayed as a "good ol’ boy" that is fun-loving and hard working. He seems bored and restless with life; he always seems to searching for something more and when he doesn’t find it; he looks for ways to fill the void and the monotony of living: ". . . it’s somethin’ to do‚ ain’t it?"
