The life of Jesus Christ is a very emotional yet religious topic to explain about. His birth was miraculous‚ the way he lived was very sin free and religious and his death changed people’s lives forever. The innocence and loyalty that Jesus portrayed was still not enough for the Roman Empire. He was just too over powering for the government and other peoples lives and was considered a risky individual. The birth of Jesus was said to be on December 25 yet in the bible there was no set date on which

In The Entry into Jerusalem‚ the biblical narrative of Zacheus displays the theme of equality in the ministry of Jesus Christ. The dramatists portray the socially-constructed hierarchies that reflect economic and physical stature as irrelevant to religious doctrine. Regardless of the characters’ social status in the Jewish community‚ Christ perceives all of the citizens as equal to their peers and inferior to the sovereignty of God. The dramatists characterize Zacheus as a citizen who is vulnerable

The past three weeks I can say that I have learned quite a lot‚ I never really thought I could understand what entailed through organized crime.

Without knowing exactly what those attributes are you would never be able to figure out what it takes to organize crime or even get why they call it organized crime. I would say to myself why do these mafia and big groups put so much time and effort into making sure that there

Religion created a massive barrier between the Native Americans and the English colonists‚ damaging the harmony that could have been established among the two cultures. The English set a goal to fulfil God’s providence and convert the Indians to Christianity‚ though failing caused Christianity to slowly arrive to abrupt halt in the new world. John Smith quotes‚ “What can he do less hurtful to any; or more agreeable to God‚ then to seek to convert those poor Savages to know Christ‚ and humanity‚ whose

The Quest for Historical Jesus With respects to the challenges that are faced to Christian theology through historical critical reading of the Bible‚ it never answered one question who was Jesus and when did he exactly live. The research that I have obtained on the quest for historical Jesus comes from Hans Schwarz Theology in a Global Context: the Last 200 Years and also from Albert Schweitzer’s The Quest for Historical Jesus. These two novels helped my research tremendously and gave me a starting

Why did the activism of the 60’s have such a lasting impact on college campuses?" America was in a post-war boom in the 1960’s. World War II was a memory and the country was changing. Following the war the country’s citizens were more affluent. This was demonstrated by the massive increase in purchasing homes. Much of this is said to be John F. Kennedy’s doing. Following the war he expressed to the country “affluent society”‚ and thus allowing Americans to believe that society could be perfected

Jesus Christ is the sinless‚ eternal Son of God. We are all sinners. God is a Holy God. He is Love and He is Justice and MUST punish sin (Luke 11:42). The Bible says that "all have sinned‚ and come short of the glory of God;" (Romans 3:23) and "Behold‚ all souls are mine; as the soul of the father‚ so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth‚ it shall die." (Ezekiel 18:4) Note that this death does not simply mean the grave‚ but eternal death‚ in Hell and the Lake of Fire‚ which was
