In Matthew 26:41 Jesus tells Peter that his heart his willing but his flesh his weak. This has been the story of the life of Peter portrayed by Matthew. There is no questioning his desire to follow and serve Jesus. However‚ readers are often left to wonder if Peter was bipolar because with his acts of greatest came the many mishaps. If we presuppose the validity of the two-source hypothesis‚ Matthew has drawn his materials on Peter at least partly from Mark. The latter puts greater importance on

revelation of the Gentiles." The Finding of Jesus in the Temple; how delightful God brings joy out of sorrow. Just imagine Jesus missing from your life‚ the result was unhappiness‚ frustration‚ and searching. We find ourselves looking to the world for fulfillment‚ but nothing satisfies very long. No matter‚ we can’t fill the void until we find Jesus. "Seek‚ and you shall find." The Sorrowful Mysteries are so unique in the fact that only Jesus Christ could fulfill them. Sorrowful too was Mary

There is one name given to Jesus through the eyes of the African people that stood out to me the most. This name is Jesus the Healer. I believe that this name has a universal or global meaning even though in our reading “The Quest for the Christ of Africa” by Donald J. Goergen‚ Jesus the healer is only presented in terms of its relevance to the African people. I believe not only is it important to see how this name given to Jesus is of great relevance to the african people but also how it is relevant

The land of Jesus‚ the Promised Land (one name amongst many) is very well known by our people. During the time of Jesus‚ we were accustomed to walk from city to city because the area was so small‚ stretching from the Mediterranean Sea to the eastern border. We farmers took care of the land and made it blossom into the beautiful land it is today. Palestine holds amazing beauty that astonishes everyone who sees it. Our hills stretch across the plains with gracious lush sides. In comparison‚ our

Jesus and Cicero Essay Sinning is one thing people feel that when people do die‚ they should automatically go to the underworld‚ or hell‚ due to their sinful actions. In the Aeneid‚ book number six‚ Virgil describes a place where these people go when they perish on earth. When these people get to the underworld‚ they are judged by their actions and punished depending on the severity of it. Virgil gives us the idea that there is indeed an afterlife‚ just like Jesus did. But when it came to sinners

seems like everything in Revelations is coming true. We need Jesus now more than ever. The opening scene of the documentary was very misleading: just think… if you were an “outsider” looking in… and had no idea what Christianity or who this‚ Jesus person‚ they keep talking about was. You would think this woman is crazy‚ and she is manipulating these kids. Well that’s exactly how they feel. Fischer is emphasizing that they must fight for Jesus but also accusing the Muslim race for teaching their kids

Suffering The cross is the unique sacrifice of Christ‚ the "one mediator between God and men". But because in his incarnate divine person he has in some way united himself to every man‚ "the possibility of being made partners‚ in a way known to God‚ in the paschal mystery" is offered to all men. He calls his disciples to "take up [their] cross and follow [him]"‚ for "Christ also suffered for [us]‚ leaving [us] an example so that [we] should follow in his steps.” Apart from the cross there is no other

The resurrection of Jesus is the most crucial part of the Christian faith. If the resurrection were not true‚ then our Christian faith would be meaningless. However‚ the resurrection is not just some myth that Christians choose to believe. Yes‚ we live by faith and believe in the Bible‚ which says that Jesus rose from the grave. However‚ the resurrection is an historical event with a lot of evidence to back it up. Most historians admit that Jesus was a real person and did walk on earth‚ but that
