Reflection on the Sea of Galilee

Reflection on the Sea of Galilee
The Sea of Galilee commonly called Lake Kinneret or the Sea of Tiberius is a small fresh water lake located in Northern Israel. The Sea of Galilee has a span of 148km2 and is 20m deep (Notley, 2009). The present Sea of Galilee is calm and beautiful but the ancient perspective during the time of Jesus offers a different opinion. The sea derives its beauty from the green springs among the hills during the wet season. The sea experiences blizzard just like in the day of Jesus as elaborated in the book of Matthew.

INTRODUCTION

Song of Solomon is one of the books that have been mistaken by most bible readers who interpret it differently from its initial intended revelation. Song of Solomon is a book that speaks of true and pure love that a married couple shows to each another. Most people take it literally to show the blossoming love life between Solomon and the queen of Sheba. Even though that was the context that Solomon used to write the scripture, it has a very different meaning that relates to the love that Christ has for the church, his bride. In this research paper, we shall ...

1 Samuel is one of the oldest documented writings and it belongs thematically with 2 Samuel. In some editions they are known as first two Books of the Kingdoms, thus leaving 1 and 2 Kingdoms as third and fourth books in this sequence. This is a very logical connection, since all the four books describe chronological events of the years preceding and following the establishment of the Jewish kingdom as an institution. Functionally 1 Samuel is a book of the Prophets (the other two being Law and Writings). This fact tells us that 1 Samuel is not only a historical book, describing ...

Saint Basil the Great was bishop of Caesarea in Cappadocia when he fought against the Arians despite grievous threats from the Arian king Valens. He has reformed so thoroughly the clergy in his diocese that other bishops sought his help in assisting them in their dioceses. His greatest achievement though was the establishment of a vast hospital and work house outside the city of Caesarea, which came to be known as the “New Town,” and later renamed Basileiad after his death (Laux, 1930). In the sermon, “Prayer must come first” (Everitt et al., 1985) he explored prayer and service through ...

Overview

Bruce Metzers The New Testament: Its Background, Growth, & Content takes the reader through a thorough tour of the new testament's fundamental elements as stipulated by Paul. Paul's writings which mainly arose from the crucible of missions he engaged in with the aim of educating and sustaining newly found Christians; form the basis of the Christian faith. His mission consequently led to a major reformation amid tight resistance both from staunch Jews and the Roman Empire (winter and Clark, 44). Through his preaching in a series of missionary trips and prison time, he founded, contacted and was responsible for several Churches. He also ...

One of the elements to consider when understanding the kingdom of God is about the timing. Some scholars in the theology field argue that the kingdom of God is after the time of Jesus on earth, others hold that the kingdom is a present reality in the time of Jesus. The recent scholars argue that the Kingdom of God is about the present and the future time of Jesus. Scholars on favor of the future timing of Jesus argued that Jesus was crucified, not because he was willing to, but because he wanted God to set His kingdom. According to ...

The Bible has a huge role in the development of social ethics. It is an indispensable source of Christian faith as it witnesses to Christ. It is important to analyze and study sexuality critically in the context of various biblical texts. There is a high distinction on peripheral and central aspects of human sexuality in the Old Testament. Such distinction is arrived at by differentiating descriptive ancient cultural values from God's will.
In the biblical time, in Israel, biblical texts described the cultural, social, psychological and historical conditions of people. These factors are put into context as they relate to ...

Introduction

Before the declaration of Christianity as the official religion in England in 312 A.D., there were prior contacts between Christianity and Insular Celtic paganism. The Georgian Mission of Christianity in 596 A.D., which declared the conversion of all pagans to Christianity as well as the Christianity take-over of Ireland by 600 A.D., accelerated the rise of Christianity and the fall of paganism (Lunn-Rockliffe, p. 12). By 1100 A.D., Christianity had gained sufficient control over the Celtic region, thereby replacing the former religion, paganism (p. 17). However, since most of the people that drafted literature about the interaction between Paganism ...

Before defining the leadership of the church, a question arises about its mission. First and foremost it is worth noting that the mission is God’s whose purpose in Christ is to reconcile all things to him. To fulfil this purpose, God uses the church in the world to spread the gospel, to evangelize, to proclaim the good news to the lost and embody in its corporate life the message of reconciliation. The church is to manifest God’s mercy and bring humanity to its purpose. In order for the church to achieve its mission in today’s contemporary world, ...

There are many theories, on how mankind appeared on Earth. However, from the dawn of human civilization, it was divided onto two main groups: The one which believed in Religion and God, another one – more realistic, well-grounded with the fundamental studies that side with science and nature. Religion – is a vital component of humans’ cultural heritage. It is a phenomenon, which is inherent in human society throughout its history and encompasses almost the entire world's population, it turns out, however, to be an area that is still not completely understood by many people. One reason for this seemingly strange fact is ...

The three things that i wish had been discussed more in detail and explained extensively are as follows; the first one is the traditional religion that was practised by people in America before the establishment of Christianity. What ceremonies were performed then and if the religion is still being practiced up to now (Kunin, 2003). Another topic is the critical look at the bible and thirdly a critical look at the Koran. This is because these two are the books used and followed by Christians and Muslims respectively. They are famous for having satanic verses that were placed there to allow ...

Persecution of the early Christians began with the crucifixion of Jesus Christ under the reign of Emperor Tiberius. After Jesus death, the Romans took the lead in subjecting early followers of the Biblical Jesus Christ to cruel mistreatment and eventually death. Those Romans ensured that those early Christians were either burnt or stoned to death in public for one reason or another. This persecution began in early 1st century to the mid 4th century. Several reasons are behind this early martyrdom that rocked the early Christian fellowship.
One of the key reasons for the persecution of the early ...

The beginning of the Protestant Reformation is usually associated with Martin Luther publishing his “95 Theses” in 1517 (Reformation). As was a common practice at the time, Luther posted his document on the church door as a sign that he wished to debate the topics listed. He was a German Augustinian monk and a lecturer at the University in Wittenberg. His bold move challenged some of the practices of the Catholic Church at that time as well as some of the specific church practices, or Doctrines.

Luther argued that the Bible was the true way to understand the word of God. The Pope ...

1.0 Introduction

Christianity stands out from the rest of the many and diverse religious beliefs that exist in the world today. According to Buntin (nd) in the myriad of religious beliefs today the idea of salvation is common albeit being defined or even termed differently. The concept of salvation from all the religious beliefs implies reconciliation of humanity to God (deity). The basic principle is that the sin and wickedness of man has separated him from his maker thus the need for salvation. As earlier mentioned to many religions salvation means different things including oneness with deity, righteousness, perfect nothingness, enlightenment, ...

St. Augustine of Hippo was born on November 13, 354 in Thagaste; known today as the Souk Ahras in Algeria, a Roman provincial city in Africa. Augustine was educated since he was 11 in Madaurus, found at least 19 miles south of Thagaste. He received education from Madaurus despite its background as a pagan Roman city. It was Augustine’s mother Monica whom taught him the basics of Christian education and enrolled him in a Catholic school. Upon his childhood and his awareness while being with fellow Christians, he understood three things and kept it very close to his heart: the Divine ...

In Christianity, the people believe in only one God. The God exists in a trinity where God is the father, Jesus Christ is the Son and there is the presence Holy Spirit.

In this paper I will explore the significant role Jesus has played since the end of the Old Testament and how through his death we were set free and he continues to be a source of hope to Christians.

INTRODUCTION

The Spanish painter Salvador Dali was one of the most idiosyncratic and interesting figures of the 20th century, not just for his painting, but for his overall personality and behavior. He was often called eccentric and flamboyant, almost to the detriment of his work. However, despite his odd nature, it cannot be denied that his surrealist paintings carry significant meaning and purpose, as well as incredible aesthetics behind them.

This is no less true in his 1954 painting Crucifixion Corpus Hypercubus, which depicts a rather unique version of Christ on the Cross, combining complex quantum mathematics with a deeply spiritual event. ...

Introduction

The central element and aspect of the Christian Faith is the divinity of Jesus Christ, the founder of the religion. Acceptance, belief and confession of Jesus Christ as the Son of God and the Savior of the world and humanity is the most basic element that distinguishes a Christian from a non-Christian. This shows that Jesus Christ is the foundation on which the entire Christian faith is built. As such, every Christian must give reverence to Him and to His position as the pivot around which every other thing in the spiritual world revolves.
The idea of Jesus being God ...

The Complexity of the Cross

Perception and perspective is often considered one’s reality. This notion forces one to acknowledge their own perceptions and perspective, particularly when it comes to their faith as they solidify and identify their own beliefs. For those who belong to the body of Christ, each member has its own journey formulating a testimony that is based on a personal relationship that is rooted in the loving grace of Jesus Christ. Within each life with Christ, there are complexities that only the grace of God can heal. In spite of life’s injustices, evil forces, sinful flesh, and degradation, the ...

Philippians 2:5-11 is a bible passage that has been interpreted a number of times and long cherished. The orthodox Christian confession of Christ is mainly based on this passage. Contemporary worshippers and devoted Christians alike have found reason to believe that this passage has an evocative and memorable power. Not so many bible passages have attracted the controversy and interpretation as much as this passage has over the years. A close look at the verses raises significant questions on the meaning of the words used and how they affirm the nature and work of Christ. Most people also look ...

Resurrection

Resurrection is a concept that details the return of the dead to life. The most intriguing episode in the New Testament is the death, burial, and the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Resurrection is a dominant theme found in the New Testament. For one, it raised extensive opinions emanating from diverse opinions from the different events and areas of the Bible. The argument calls for a natural form of immortality to the soul and the lack of immortality of the body. The spirit lives forever in magnification of the lord's power and magnificence in His actions, favor, and love for ...

What Would Jesus Do with Refugees?

One of the greatest aspects found in this verse is the idea of inviting a stranger. In this particular case it is not any stranger but specifically refugees. One of the greatest opportunities to help refugees is charities specifically the Catholic Charities Migration and Refugee Services. The Catholic Church, at an international and at a local level, strongly supports the rights of migrants and refugees. This is in accordance with the Gospel teaching “Love one another as I have loved you” (John 13:34) and “Whatever you do to the least of my brothers and sisters you do to me”( ...

Introduction

Faith is a topic of unending debate between opinions of various people. It’s also a bundle of questions and answers; enigmas and mysteries to solve. It’s like a labyrinth of life. Many people attempt to explain different aspects of it. Some statements matter more; some become revolutionary while some are unheard of.
Many of these opinions affected numerous lives or way of lives, and two of this life changing statements about faith – specifically about the sin of humanity and how God saved humanity – are from Athanasius and Anselm.

Athanasius’ View of Sin

St Athanasius speaks of sin, humanity and God in ‘ ...

How does the divine decree relate to the attributes of God?

Answer

The divine decrees regulate the operation of the attributes. The actions of God can no more be separated from the decrees of God than the actions of a man can be from his decisions. The divine decree relates only to God’s opera ad extra or transitive acts. The divine decree, consequently, comprehends only those events that occur in time.

Application

In our Christian walk, we must always take into consideration the fact that the attributes of God are a direct reflection upon events in time. As we strive to be good Christians, we must be aware of the temporal ...

Introduction

The trinity has always been a matter of debate among spiritual circles, eliciting violence in some instances in the past. The main issue of controversy fueling this debate is the divinity of Jesus Christ. Arianism was one of the notable heretical teachings of the past that threatened the Christian church. This belief challenged the core tenet of the orthodoxy regarding the divinity of Jesus Christ. This view held that Jesus was a creation of God and as such did not possess the divine substance of the Father. The Arian view was majorly advanced by Arius, a Libyan, born around 256 A.D. He ...

How was Jerry instrumental in motivating fundamental to re-engage with mainstream culture?

America is known to have over fifty million Christians who claim to be born again, yet their culture is secular. Occasionally some editors and journalist have portrayed the Christians as outside people who are a threat to the public life. However, the question of modernity whether America is pre-modern or modern is based on the Christians religious beliefs. Susan Harding’s book focuses on the intense language use among born again Christians that caused changes in American politics in the 1980s (Kenneth, 179). Farwell’s words as employed in the book comprises of scriptural narratives that have an influence ...

The deep influence of Judeo-Christian heritage on the civilization of the West is evident from the current notions of human rights and human dignity, innovations in the field of medicine and science, universal education, humanitarian habitual traits and their extensive contribution to arts.
While this claim is common, it has been dogged by controversy in recent times and the revisionists of late modernity along with individuals suffering from historical amnesia have raised a strong opposition to this claim.
Both the liberal media and active humanists have joined forces over the years to focus their efforts on providing the American ...

Stowe’s Uncle Tom’s Cabin through the Eyes of Popular Culture and Religion

[Introduction]
Popular culture and religion have the same thing in common: symbols. Symbols are an inherited system of notions that express in representation forms a people’s “knowledge about and attitude towards life” (Geertz 89). Being symbols, their meanings are defined by people in accordance to their popular culture or religion. Consequently, these symbols can get shared between popular culture and religion; while their meanings change (enhanced or diminished) in accordance to the strength of cultural or religious influence upon them.
Meanwhile, Harriet Beecher Stowe’s Uncle Tom’s Cabin or Life among ...

Most Americans have no clue whatsoever about what it is to be gay. Mostly, they opposed gay marriages out of darkness and ignorance. The argument is always centered on the belief that the family as understood in the western context consisted of a man and woman. The woman brings the feminine qualities responsible for nurturing, care, and motherhood. The father on the other hand, is in charge security of the family. This role extended to the provision of necessities for the well-being of children and the wife. In conventional understanding, sex is an act that united females and males in ...

In his book called “Way of all the Earth”, Dunne brings up some very important philosophical questions that people have been asking themselves and each other for centuries. After reading this book, one may think that Dunne introduces his own religion, which is unlike any other.

The major religions of the world include Islam, New Age, Christianity, Hinduism and Buddhism (Lomas et al., 198). The five categories justify Buddhism to be a religion.

Civilization in Cold War

The end of the Second World War left the world with two superpowers – the United States (US) and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) – that nearly controlled every aspect of politics, economics and social life worldwide. The two superpowers, after completion of the Second World War, started fierce rivalry that did not involve direct military engagements in the battlefields. The fight for scientific, political, economic, and military control as a way of civilization led the Americans to support one group or country over the others. The war involved the two superpowers in hideously supporting, financing and implementing their ideologies ...

Isa (Jesus) and the Muslim Scriptures

The Quran narrates the birth of Jesus through Maryam (Mary), a virgin mother. Before Isa’s (Jesus) birth, Maryam serves in the temple of Jerusalem.

Arguably, modern day historians are justified in attributing the economic and sociopolitical attributes of the present Brazil to the past. The history of Brazil began in the early 15 century when a Portuguese navigator called Cabral Pedro Alvares arrived at the Brazilian coast.

Generally, Brazilian people trace their originality from four main sources, which include Europeans, Asians, Amerindians, as well as Africans. The diversity and complexity of Culture and societal characteristics of Brazil reflects cultural and racial mixing that took place during the colonial period that ...

A complex society and a classical society and their effect to the world

The world societies have been transforming since the beginning of history. The earliest forms of societies were of a rather complex nature.

The complete change of government structures from the complex to the classical societies could not go unnoticed. This change had a rather significant transformation to the human society as a whole.
This paper will analyze two ancient societies, Mesopotamia a complex society and the Roman ...

The main proposition in their argument is the discussion of the cliché aspect that surrounds Islam and their objective levels. The core ...

The issue of prolonged life has been debated for centuries. In fact, Ponce de Leon spent his life’s work looking for the Fountain of Youth all over the globe. The century long limit of human life has essentially created the fantasy of those who wanted to live longer. This curiosity of these individuals has led to the fantasy of seeing history when it transpired rather than reading it in a book. For this reason, many television shows and books have explored the possibility of a human living beyond their one-hundred-year timeframe. For example, vampires, warlocks, and the like ...

In his speech, it can be implied that he wanted to talk to ...

The purpose of this paper is to differentiate the Medieval Art from Renaissance Style. The way to study the present is to first study the past; hence, the Renaissance style that flourished in the beginning of the 15th century was nothing more than a rebirth and continuation of the classical styles whilst breaking free from the traditional religious concepts of the Medieval Period. The Middle Ages or commonly known as the Medieval Period is a part of the European history dating from the fall of the Roman Empire in 476 A.D. Erstwhile, in 395 A.D., the Roman Empire was divided into ...
