Credo Beliefs

During the 6th to 2nd centuries BCE, several challenges contributed to philosophers and leaders revising existing belief systems and developing new ones. Some of the countries where these changes were evident are China, Greece, Egypt, and Mauryan India. As countries developed, differences between members of the same societies emerged and led to conflict and more diversity. Although several different challenges, such as religion, caused leaders to revise existing belief systems and create new ones, ultimately it was the challenges of new methods of education, various wars between countries, and the influence of different cultures that contributed to the new belief systems.

1. What would the role of adherence to your credo play in preventing you from losing your way? My credos are that I will always be honest and I will never steal. With these two questions in my mind and my heart will keep me from losing my way. If I am already honest than I wouldn’t have to worry about getting in trouble or someone find out the true. Since, I choose not to steal than I don’t have to worry about getting into trouble as well. Any job already have enough problems to worry about, why add on any more?

Throughout this class we have discussed the different worldviews that an individual may have. This class has taught me that a worldview is how an individual understands the world and their place in it. “A worldview consist of what a person believes to be real and true, what a person values, how a person makes decisions, and what forms a person’s desires, longings, and goals” (Fuller, Lecture One). An individual’s worldview is the motivating force behind their every emotion, decision, and action. A worldview is what helps an individual make sense of life and this world. A worldview will provide answers for many different questions in life. A few of the questions that a worldview helps answer are questions of origin, human dilemma, hope, and destiny.

Imagine this. You’re a young teenage girl, in which was just informed that your father was shot and killed in cold blood. Nobody did anything to stop the culprit, nobody intervened. The guy got away without any question. How does that make you feel?

Based on my analysis, I explain that AMC leaders who happen to be Christian leaders should understand what is leadership before getting into overarching goals from a Christian perspective and how should they should be handled properly. AMC leaders should explore the Christian principles by laying a strategic plan that is easy to understand and use it effortlessly and efficiently. However, when a leader keeps his maintenance of Christian’s core values and beliefs, he should be comprehensive and concise on where he leads his followers in his organization. “In regard to maintaining core values and beliefs, a common theme was that focusing on what you believe to be the ‘right thing to do’ gives a sense of personal integrity, self-worth, and even accomplishment—no matter what the final outcome” (Shaw, 2012, pg.59). Therefore, from a Christian perspective, a leader should seek and serve God and those he shows the way strategically in his organization.

In Romans 1-8 Paul is writing to teach the doctrine of Christ. Although Paul goes into much more depth in these eight chapters, his message ultimately boils down to the following sentence. We have all sinned and deserve death, however, through the redemption and sanctification of Christ we have been saved and should now lead, Christ centered lives of faith.

On the evening of Friday, 13 November 2015, a massacre including of public mass shootings and suicide bombings occurred in the capital of France, Paris. The attackers killed 130 people and wounded 368 serious injuries. Just 10 months previous, on January 7, 2015 two terrorists attacked Charlie Hebdo, an office of a Parisian satirical magazine. They killed eleven and wounded eleven people. During the attacks in Paris, no one victim was armed. They didn’t have any chance to defense for themselves. When police arrived, it was too late to save the innocents. The world today is full of dangerous with terrorism, criminals, mass shootings, and so forth. We 're not safe from anything.

The ten beliefs of my personal credo are that I believe that: death is not the end, we should not judge others, you should pray not when you have to but when you want to, you should be happy, I believe in love, I believe in family, in my guardian angel, and that a good person cares about nature. However, most of all, I believe in God. I believe that death is not the end because after we die, our remains become part of the soil that makes up the Earth or the very atoms that compose the stars. What we are, what we are made of, lives on in another form. So although our human form may die, we never truly cease to exist. We continue to be a part of the universe in a different form. I believe that we should not judge others because we never completely know

Journalist Martin Gansberg authors the article “Thirty-Eight Who Saw Murder Didn't Call the Police” reconstructs the murder of Ms. Catherine, a.k.a. Kitty, Genovese. All thirty-eight witnesses refrained from calling the police to aid the dying woman. Gansberg exposes the ugly truth about what results when a group of people or a society becomes apathetic and self-preserving. Society is selfish that watching others to be harmed and or killed is not significant enough to speak against or alert someone else to injustices.

Would you not keep your doors locked 24/7 and keep to yourself most of the time due to the fear of knowing that anytime of the day someone could potentially come into your home and rob or even worse kill you? As a young, independent, courageous young lady with tons of loving peers and family I too make sure that my doors are locked 24/7 and in areas known to be very dangerous I keep to myself as much as possible. I can’t imagine being old and alone in that predicament. I would probably have deadbolts on the door and barely check my mail out due to fear. Point being, how can you place blame on victims who were afraid to live in their own community? If anything you should feel compassion and empathy towards them for having to constantly live in fear. Or even better, blame yourself because you failed at successfully fulfilling your duty as a government official and efficiently governing your community to make it a better place. Those people did the only thing they knew to stay safe, how can they be

shout and be mad as hell that another one of our kids has died at the hands of the police.”

On one very sad day last year in 2014 there was a shooting at parliament hill . A man named Zack killed one soldier. Tons of people were stacking up furniture blocking doors and praying for their lives. Police came as soon as possible, but it was very risky for people to be anywhere near the building because shots were heard multiple times. There was a policeman near by but he had to wait outside for backup because it was to dangerous to go in alone. Eventually the backup came and there was a total of fifteen policemen at the parliament hill building. The man made a video saying why he did this just after the shooting and the police did not catch him in the act, but they did eventually arrest

We see these stories just about anywhere we are, we have modern technology to thank for that, through newspapers, news media, social media, even our own relatives. There are people in the world who have no respect for human life and are active when they kill. The only way we can bring these killers to justice if we as citizens work together with the police. In a lot of scenarios there are witnesses who see a crime take place or have some leads that will help the police solve crimes. Usually witnesses call the police and try to help the person in trouble, but this is different. When it came to the murder of Catherine Genovese, there were 38 witnesses who didn’t do a single thing to save her. If the 38 neighbors didn’t physically intervene all they could have done was call the police, simple as that. In today’s world we can no longer become helpless bystanders we must stand hand-in-hand with each

Christianity is a religion that provides adherents with the ability to fulfill their relationship with God every day. However not all Christians exercise this covenantal relationship the same way or act out the principal beliefs to the same extent. Different denominations represent their beliefs - the foundations for their lived expression - in different manners. Some of the Christian principal beliefs include, Revelation, Salvation, the Trinity, and the Life, Death and Resurrection of Jesus. It is through environmental ethics and ethical teachings, and the practice of baptism that adherents are able to connect to their one God and attain a healthy relationship with God to a certain extent.

There are going to be times in our lives when we disagree with what someone says or another person’s opinions on a particular matter. It’s unlikely that we will agree and be content with everything that happens in our lives as we do not live in a utopian world. It is also inevitable at one time or another that we will disagree with what the Church is teaching us especially when it comes to moral issues such as divorce, birth control, and abortion. This is called non-reception. When non-reception ensues in the Church, the teaching in question is ineffectively expressed or judged to be unbelievable by a large population of good, faithful Catholics (Kennedy).
