Speaking Of Jesus Chapter 3 Summary

456 Words | 2 Pages

In chapter 3 of Speaking of Jesus, Carl Medearis talks about what it means to own Christianity. He says "If we don't truly know what the gospel is, we have to find an explanation for Christianity." Meaning that if we do not know what the gospel is or what it is teaching us, then we try to define it by our own standards, and that is where it gets messy. Medearis talks about how Christianity is more than a religion, but it is a relationship and people tend to not understand that. He explains why people are so defensive and put up their guards towards Christians, because Christians can be so judgemental.

Christ Figure In How To Read Literature Like A Professor

1076 Words | 5 Pages

This chapter focuses on the importance of recognizing the symbolic elements of Christ. In the New Testament of the Christian Bible, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, came from Heaven to earth in the form of man to fulfill the Old Testament prophecies of the Messiah. He is believed to have lived a perfect life, free from sin, and to have died on a Roman cross for the sins of the world. Sometimes, writers use their characters to represent Christ in different ways. These symbolic characters are known as Christ figures.

Response to the Letter sent on February 2018 Matthew 2:2, “Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? For we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him”. One favorite scripture I share is, Hebrews 12:2, “Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God” (KJV).

The text offers to the reader a deeper understanding of the ministry of preaching. A useful component of the text contains informative bits of information that make the reader aware of the lengthy but necessary preparation needed for an adequate explanation of the scripture. Of primary importance is the consideration of the congregation when a preacher is first approaching the text. This point is of vital importance as it signifies that the speaker is a member of the body of Christ and the congregation.

John R. Franke's Five Views On Biblical Inerrancy

1610 Words | 7 Pages

INTRODUCTION The authority of the Scripture is fundamental to evangelical faith and witness. But at the same time, not all evangelicals affirm the inerrancy of the scripture. Biblical inerrancy affirms that the biblical text is accurate and totally free from error of any kind. The difficulty in affirming the inerrancy of scripture does not seem to be so much on the spiritual and moral teachings of the Bible, however, the difficulty perhaps seems to emerge on the issue of accuracy in other disciplines such as history, science and acheology.

2 Chronicles 13: The Most Significant Fulfillments Of Jesus

397 Words | 2 Pages

There are two significant fulfillments of the prophecies founded in the New Testament that are most compelling and conclusive to me. One founded in 2 Chronicles 13:18 and the other in 1 Corinthians 15:4. In 2 Chronicles 13:18 Jesus fullies the Old Testament prophecies of being despised by mankind. “But I am a worm and not a man, scorned by mankind and despised by the people.” This is significant for me because it is what solidifies the fact that Jesus went through all the emotional withdraws that humans go through.

What Paul Means By The Word Mystery In The Old Testament

1469 Words | 6 Pages

The word mystery was used four times in the passage. I like a good mystery. I like to watch movies and read books that don’t unravel till the end. It’s a good movie or book if you’re kept on the edge of your seat and then at the end it all makes sense. This is what the word mystery means today.

Personal Statement

If I am successful in being selected for the graduate program, I hope to gain knowledge in the fields of insurance, international business, organizational behavior, strategy, operations and management. I feel that I am the best candidate because I’m a very motivated worker and although I’m new to the world insurance, I’m not new thinking strategically and analytically. During my time interning at Young & Rubicam, I realized how much strategic thinking and planning went into marketing and I’m excited by the prospect of bringing this same level of thinking and enthusiasm to this new opportunity. Therefore, I believe this position is a great fit for me. There are a lot of reasons which attracted me towards the graduate program such as exposure in different departments, and the opportunity to gain exposure in the London office.

Reflection Of Paul's Pneumatology

1434 Words | 6 Pages

Paul’s pneumatology found in his writings has been a matter of interest in recent New Testament scholarship. Gordon Fee has been a great contributor in this area and in Paul, the Spirit and the People of God he outlines the various elements found in Pauline pneumatology giving us greater insight into this subject. In this paper I will highlight some of these elements that are unique to Paul and are not found in the Synoptic Gospels and Acts. The first distinctive of Pauline pneumatology is the way he sees the Spirit as God’s personal presence. For Paul, the coming of the Spirit meant that God had fulfilled the promises He had made to Jeremiah and Ezekiel when He said, ‘I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel’ (Jer. 31:31), and
