Thomas J. DiLorenzo, wrote this book to scavenge the documentary record in an attempt to show Lincoln as a revolutionary centralizer who used national sovereignty to establish corporate-mercantilist control at the expense of open economic liberty. Through lots of research and careful documentation, DiLorenzo describes the sixteenth president as a man who devoted his political career to revolutionizing the American form of government from one that was very limited in choice and highly dispersed as the Founding Fathers intended, to a highly centralized, activist state. Americans consider Lincoln to be the greatest president in history. His legend as the greatest president has created hundreds of books, a national holiday, and a monument in Washington,

When working in the science fields there are many obstacles a person of faith may face. The biggest of these is the controversy over the concept of evolution and how the world came into being. Atheists and evolutionists are always trying to find ways to disprove God with science. However, after spending several years learning about how nature and chemicals work together to form our world it is hard for me to imagine that all of it came into existence without a creator.
Gushee and Stassen propose that Jesus “always omitted any parts of the teaching that advocate violence, nationalist fervor, or triumph
To be sure, the Puritan Jesus is incarnate: he is the God-man. Yet he’s just too far out of reach for the personal touch.” (Nichols, 2008, p. 20) During this time period, Christians saw Jesus as strict and ridged, this was the persona their culture needed Him to fulfill. The Bible does have examples of Christ not being a gushy guy, He threw tables in the temple because of sin; however, this is not the only way He is portrayed.
Jesus tells us in the context of the whole passage that all have perpetrated (sinned), and we shouldn 't be so hasty to cast a stone (judge/condemn) others before taking an introspective look at ourselves and where we fall short. To foster this spirituality for incarnationally serving those on the margins is to "choose the way of Jesus, laying aside all the earthly resources that give us power - in order to be present to those we love" (pg. 97).

However, we mustn 't become calloused to the evil actions in these ambiguous situations, if we do, then the loving-correction needed to move past perpetration may never be accomplished. Jesus displays the forgiveness and the call to action beautifully "
Introduction: As part of a prophetic community, we have come to realize that there is a clear distinction between someone who loves God and someone who lives like Jesus. A person who lives a holy lifestyle and seeks to do good to their neighbors, and loves God (of course), is a person that loves God. These kind of people are common, and really great to have around. By no means do I think they are bad people. Then there are the other set of people who are willing to live their lives sacrificially; their lives will actually mimic the life of Jesus.
The fact that Jesus is moved by a human emotion suggests that he is able to feel empathy for humans and experience human emotions. Furthermore, there are also several instances in which we see Jesus sleeping and praying, both of which are human actions. This reveals a surprisingly human-like aspect of the nature of Jesus. Thus, an important part of being the Son of God involves having at least some human
