Theology... Advent Advent is the commencement of the church calendar in most of the traditional Western churches. It normally commences on the fourth Sunday prior to Christmas. The advent period in these churches runs up to the Christmas Eve. It is of great importance to know the meaning of the word advent before outlining what it entails. Advent means arrival, which refers to the coming of Jesus Christ. The first advent is to celebrate the birth of Jesus while the Second Advent is based on the expectation of his future return. It involves celebrating Gods revelation to humanity through Christ. The Second Advent is characterized by scriptural references with themes majorly inclined to being accountable during his second coming. Judgment... Advent Advent ...

Theology... Instruction: Religion: A Core Necessity. I believe that, as Mahatma Gandhi said, “My religion is a matter between my God and me.” As a Business student, and as a person to whom religion is a very personal subject, the necessity of including religious courses in the Core Curriculum initially did not make sense to me. But, as I ponder over the lectures and student presentations I have attended in this course, I begin to view this issue from a different perspective. It is my opinion that it is necessary to include religious courses in the Core Curriculum as religion permeates every aspect of life, religious studies make a liberal education complete, and an understanding of different religions will remove many sources of conflict...

Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me (Mark 10:21).
Second group is comprised by following...

Theology...Your full December 20, Theology God’s existence or non-existence has been a hot topic of theological debate since ages. Scientists have always been thinking how universe came into existence in the first place- whether there is a God up there who created all the things in the universe, or was it only a Big Bang that became the cause of the evolution of the universe. The debate is never-ending and will continue to hover over the minds of people until they are convinced to believe that there is someone super-natural and omnipotent who is mighty enough to create the world, the mountains, the rivers and oceans, the animals, and most of all, the human. This paper intends to discuss why would an intelligent mind believe or not believe... to these...

Theology...Task: In theology, the term theodicy is used to mean the response to the evidential problem of evil. The term and the existence of its concept are thought to give reason of the existence of a God who is all-powerful and unstoppable in his ways (Young). He is also a God who will always care and give to his people without looking back.
To look at an extraordinary evil in the world, we take an example of a mother who has money and lives with her friend’s children because her friend cannot afford their upkeep. Without the knowledge of her friend, she keeps on mistreating her friend’s children throughout their childhood. However, due to the actions of their mother, the rich woman’s children perform so poorly in school...

Theology... Teacher Galatians and Philemon In Galatians, Paul draws the line between the Gospels and the Old Testament Law. It is surprising to see such a thorough understanding/interpretation of:
1) Explanation of the Old Testament Law (to show us we are guilty of sin and in need of a Redeemer)
2) Summary of the New Testament (Christ Jesus’ redemptive power)
3) Completion of the promise given to Abraham (Christ [Christian] seed)
The interesting point is that Paul is or was suffering from some sort of illness which seems to be related to his eyes. Paul’s disease brings up an incredible metaphor and point of illumination for those afflicted with any type of illness. God does not always heal and, perhaps, this ‘eye disease’ might...

Theology... What in this reading was surprising and what was familiar? One surprising finding from the book of Mark was that John the Baptist never fed on anything besides honey and locust. Prior to closely studying his book, I had not come to the understanding that John the Baptist was not only unique in lifestyle by living in the wilderness, but also fed on unusual foods his entire life. The familiar account in the book of Mark was John preparing the way for Jesus and telling the Jewish people of the Messiah’s coming, something they did not entirely believe. The preparations made by John as documented in the book of Mark through preaching and baptism in river Jordan, were a fulfillment of prophesies by prophet Isaiah and given my prior... What in...

Theology... Technology and Warfare Number Department Whether or Not Athletes Carry Values of Their Training into Society in Such A Way Society Reflects Their Values
In principle, it is true that athletes carry values of their training into societies in a manner that the society reflects their value. By the term, in principle, there is reference to the general plan or idea, or the universality of the idea or a plan as being true. The veracity of this standpoint is underscored by the fact that sportsmanship and athleticism have become more informed by the pursuit of higher ideals and values than merely as a means to financial end.
As vast as the number of societies and ethno-cultural group may be in the globe, it is intriguing that every... Technology...

Theology...Theology In the first passage (Genesis 2:4a) God is supernatural, dignified and divine being aloof from creation while in the second passage (Genesis 2:4a-3:24) God is anthropomorphic with human-like characteristics such as speaking, walking and acting like human beings. In the first passage, God is referred to as Elohim while in the second account he is referred to as Jehovah (McDermott 2003). Elohim is the universal God who calls into being, rests and ceases to make. On the other hand, Jehovah in the second account of creation is a personal and nationalistic God who forms, breaths and makes. It feels the same to be in the presence of God behind each of these two passages because God is above everything; the creator of...
