I wish to enter the LCC Early College on behalf of my boredom and my grievances with the K12 system’s lack of challenging material, inefficient placement processes, and absence of intellectually stimulating experiences and opinions that a college level environment could easily provide me. I am drawn to the concept of early college because of the freedom it gives to the student to pursue their interests with greater liberty than other rigid secondary educational options. I believe that the only obstacle standing between one’s goals, is the intensity of the challenges that came before, and one’s true willingness to achieve the goal they set. LCC would give me the intellectual challenges of accelerated learning that I crave and strive to achieve,

Unlike most other Christians denominations, the Adventist attend church on Saturdays. From night fall on Friday until night fall on Saturday, no work should be done. They take pride on this day for rest and call it Sabbath. Another big difference is that they interpret the Bible differently and do not believe in your body going straight to heaven. Rather when a person dies, they remain insensible until resurrected.
The Sabbath is a ‘day of rest and relaxation’ practised by Christians and Jews. Sabbath is commanded by God as it is the fourth commandment to keep the Sabbath holy because God rested from the creation on the seventh day of the week. It is a day to remember God and his creation, rejoice, read the Bible and spend time with family and friends . Sabbath was first originated in Judaism, but later continued into Christianity in a different form. In previous times, Jews observed the Sabbath properly by melachah and enjoy a day of rest.
