Rhetorical Analysis Of ' An Indian 's Looking Glass For The White Man '

In contrast Pope Benedict XVI’s book, Jesus of Nazareth, stated that the ‘Kingdom of God’ is “… an inner disposition characterised in daily behaviour by adopting the mind and outlook of Christ…” A teacher of the law once asked Jesus, “Which commandment is the most important?” He deemed loving God and your neighbour as the two most important. So here it is clear that Jesus is talking about love as a major theme in personal conduct a theme which is exemplified by biblical stories of Jesus’ own behaviour. Jesus demonstrated his love for others on many occasions and in many different ways. He spoke to people who were outcasts or disliked such as the woman at the well and Zacchaeus. He met people’s physical needs through some of his

The authors capture the attention of the reader through an amalgamate of rhetorical patterns based on logos, ethos and pathos. Through reading these articles it is found that the writers predominantly use logos and pathos to put emphasis on their arguments. Specifically, logos is utilized to appeal to reason by repeatedly using data to uphold the arguments claims, while pathos appeals to the audience’s aptitude for compassion.

Other relevance worldviews about this teaching was that, treating each other with respect and dignity will help to foster unity among people and make people to live in harmony as God intended for us that He made in His own image should live. This teaching also encourages us to know how God instructed us to use our tongue. He said that, we should not use our tongue to say evil things to one another or curse, because we are His likeness and we not bad in His sight but good. (Genesis 1:31).

Jewish and Christian teachings which call us to respond to God's love by loving our neighbors as ourselves;

Following His discussion of behaviors that one needs to possess for life in the kingdom, Jesus begins talking about the influence of those within the kingdom of God. One of the principles the Bible repeatedly stresses is the absolute obligation for His people to show an example to others. The children of Israel had various laws that made them separate and unique from the people around them (cf. Deut. 14:2, 26:18). Providing a purpose behind this separation and uniqueness, God intends for the idolaters and evil people around them will see their goodness (cf. Deut. 4:6 - 8). Similarly, God expects His people today to present an example to the outside world.

9 We love because he first loved us. 20 If anyone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen cannot love God whom he has not seen. 21 And this commandment we have from him: whoever loves God must also love his

According to bible Matthew chapter 5 43-44, “you heard that was said ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy’. But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you”. Which mean some people said “ love your neighbor and hate your enemy” but God did not teach that,

The compelling motive force of the Congregation and of the Sisters who come to it must be an ardent response to God’s call to love him and their fellow human beings. Likewise, the Lord’s new commandment to “love one another as I have loved you” (John 15:12) is more demanding than the Lord’s commandment to “love your neighbor as yourselves” (Matt

In the Gospel of Matthew, the Sadducees and Pharisees attempted to trick Jesus by asking him what was the greatest commandment. Jesus answered by telling them that the greatest commandment is to “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments” (Matthew 22:37-40). These verses reflect Augustine’s belief that “every commandment harks back to love (Enchiridion 93). Everyone is to love God first, and from that love comes the love for others. Augustine claims that one’s love for others must not be a selfish love and also must not be for the other person’s sake (Christian Doctrine 78). This means that one is not to love people for who they are or what they have done, but one is to, instead, love people for who God is in them. According to Augustine, truly loving another has another aspect. One ought to encourage, pray for, and guide others one encounters so that they might also “love God with [their] whole heart, and soul, and mind” (Christian Doctrine 79). Clearly, not everyone in the world is a follower of Christ. Augustine also informs his audience on how to love those who do not practice Christianity or are corrupted by sin. Augustine encourages everyone to be “a lover of good, and therefore a hater of evil”

This basically means to treat everyone with compassion, sincerity, and without deceit. The word love sticks out in this quote, love meaning to be kind and concern. The Hebrew word for love is ababah and the Greek for love is agapoa. The quote, “Love your neighbor as yourself”, appears 9 times in the NIV Bible, and the word love 567 times in 526 verses.

Mathew 22:37 in the NIV says, "Jesus replied: 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' "

Christianity has quickly begun to lose its true meaning throughout the years. It’s when people use words like love and morals and common sense—they just don’t have the same meaning as they once did all those years ago. Christianity though, unlike the previously stated words, has been modernized in such ways that we have deceivingly altered things such as “The Ten Commandments” to foolishly fit our desired lifestyles. We have begun a modernization of Christianity I like to refer to as, Twenty-First Century Christianity.

The love ethic is the teaching of love. Jesus stressed that love should not only be practiced in a person 's relationship with fellow Christians and with Jesus Himself, but also that it was of the utmost importance to share love with non-believers. Love must be extended to every single person, including a person 's enemies.

In Matthew 5:43-48, God speaks about kindness and love. “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you” (Matthew 5:43-44, ESV).

Finally then, brothers and sisters, we ask you and urge you in the Lord Jesus, that as you received instruction from us about how you must live and please God (as you are in fact living) that you do so more and more. 2 For you know what commands we gave you through the Lord Jesus. “In verse 1 and 2, begins the introduction to where the paraenetic division of the letter starts.” (Clark, 78). 3 For this is God’s will: that you become holy, that you keep away from sexual immorality, 4 that each of you know how to possess his own body in holiness and honor, 5 not in lustful passion like the Gentiles who do not know God. 6 In this matter no one should violate the rights of his brother or take advantage of him, because the Lord is the avenger in all these cases, as we also told you earlier and warned you solemnly. 7 For God did not call us to impurity but in holiness. 8 Consequently the one who rejects this is not rejecting human authority but God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you.
