“The Gospel For Those Broken By The Church” by Dr. Rod Rosenbladt Rod Rosenbladt paints a fantastic picture in his presentation “The Gospel For Those Broken By The Church.” He discusses how the church can often push people away from the Gospel, and, by extension, God. He explains how pastors push people away from Christianity and why many of the “alumni of the Christian faith” are feeling how they do: why some of them feel angry, and why some others feel sad about the Christian faith. Rosenbladt’s presentation, in many ways, mirrors Paul's presentation of the Gospel in the first eight chapters of his letter to the Romans. In said letters, Paul explains how we are all God’s apostles, how we try to uphold the law, and even though we fail

Wealth “Soft” from “Hard” Prosperity Gospel Bowler observed that, around 1990s, prosperity preachers combined their work with therapeutic services such as weight loss, emotional relief, fitness capacity to work, self-esteem among many more. Health and wealth were still the main ideas sold by the prosperity preachers just that they had introduced new products targeting women seeking to gain a better body shape and individuals with low self esteem. A good example of this prosperity gospel trend is Joyce Mayer, whose personal triumph over marital failure and childhood abuse brings her ministry to shape. Her audience is middle aged women who can associate themselves with the pains of weight loss and relational challenges. Victory Prosperity gospel

Parallel Lives of Jesus by Edward Adams breaks down the four Gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. It compares and contrasts the four; defines their history; analyzes the story and narrative structure; and even evaluates the literature comparing specific passages. His main point is to show that the Gospels explore one main story—the life of Jesus Christ—but there are specific differences that only strengthen each other from their different perspectives. Adams wants his audience to read the Gospels as four, but one. The first part of his book, Part 1 titled “Approaching the Four Gospels,” studies the books as an overview.

Chapter 6 of the Gospel according to Luke initially reflects Christ’s teachings concerning the Sabbath, which inevitably elicits sentiments of rage from the Pharisees, further deepening the conflict shared between Jesus and the religious authorities. The aforementioned event began after the Pharisees witnessed Christ attempting to heal the withered hand of a man, but before treating the man’s wound, Christ declared to the peeping Pharisees that it would be far more destructive to let the man succumb to his wounds opposed to disregarding the sabbath for a bit to help a fellow human. Rather than truly digesting the words that were just fed to them, the Pharisees decided to seek ways to punish Christ for disobeying the sabbath. This whole scenario

The last book (Revelation) foretells Jesus’ return to earth to rescue all of his followers, so that we may live on the New Earth (Heaven) with Jesus for eternity.

For this essay I chose to write about the Gospel of Matthew. I chose this particular one because it speaks out to me on a spiritual level. The Gospel according to Matthew is the first book in the New Testament, and also serves as a bridge between the Old Testament and the New Testament. The gospel tells us of Jesus and his teachings that he wants his people to follow as a Law. It is believed that the Gospel originated with Matthew, one of Jesus' disciples, and it circulated anonymously (Harris 149).

The word “critical” often conjures the incorrect image of negativity. If the Four Gospels are to be analysed critically would this study find loopholes only? This need not be the case, as the Four Gospels, and the Bible as a whole, has withstood the test of time. As a stand-alone text, the Bible has proven its accuracy in its portrayal of events, its authorship, and its date of writing. Though scholars have tried to use both textual and literary criticism to discredit the Four Gospels, there are an equal number of scholars, using these same tools, who have proved that the Four Gospels have an accurate portrayal of events.

The first book of the New Testament is the Gospel according to Matthew; in which Matthew kicks off his introduction to Jesus with a genealogical record beginning with Abraham—the father of Israel. This beginning of Matthew’s Gospel points to his clear picture of Jesus—the Jewish Messiah who came as God’s promised gift to bring salvation to the whole world (Strauss 214). Clearly, Matthew builds upon Mark’s account of Jesus in his Gospel, but with an extra emphasis on Jesus’ Jewish connection and his life being the God’s fulfilled promise for the nation of Israel. Matthew displays Jesus’ connection with God’s chosen people through his narration, similarities to Moses, and announcement of the Kingdom of Frist off, Matthew records Jesus’ speaking about the Old Testament more than any other Gospel writer (Strauss 247). In addition, Matthew appears to be “proficient in Hebrew as well as Greek and that his primary Bible was the Hebrew Scriptures” (Strauss 218).

The first stage resulted in the formation and development of the Gospels, in which it demonstrates how Jesus of Nazareth proclaimed the reign of God. The Gospels are the foundations of the teaching of the Catholic Church and it is solely built upon the teachings and parables of Jesus, as shown in Mark 4:2. Jesus travelled all throughout the countryside preaching, performing miracles, healing people and teaching people about God’s word and truths from the parables during 4BC to 30AD. These events were the main reason for how the Gospels would later come about, and it had a major impact on the disciples and the people in society at that time. The second stage of the Oral Period was when the disciples and apostles listened and watched as they
