Spiritual Warfare And Charles Evangelism

Charles B. Dew's Apostles of Disunion delves into the controversial topic of the causes of the Civil War and the secession of the states that eventually became the Confederate States of America. There are many accounts that point to defending states' rights as the primary cause of the Civil War. However, most people believe that slavery was the main and primary concern the deep South cited for seceding from the Union to form their own separate country focused on individual liberty and the progression of slavery in those states. Dew makes the point that searching for the cause for the Civil War is a search that continues to be debated

Silencing the enemy is a very fitting title for this book. It is fitting because the author, Robert Gay, explains how God suppresses the devices of the adversary through the praise and worship of His people. Although the term “spiritual warfare” is not found in scripture, Paul expounds on the concept throughout the New Testament. He encourages the saints to “Put on the whole armor of God that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil”. This scripture informs us that we are in a battle, a battle that has been raging since the beginning of time. It is not a battle that one can see with the naked eye. Nor is it a battle that is fought with natural weapons. It is a battle that is fought in the spirit world. Our methods of

Today, the integration of Christianity and psychology is becoming more increasingly recognized. The integration begins with understanding the sinful state of the human condition as viewed from a biblical perspective. It continues with being faithful to Christian stewardship and not only embracing theology but also the psychology of human behavior (Entwistle, 2015). A more accurate and complete understanding of human nature and function is provided through the integration of Christianity and psychology. The Allies model confirms that Christian theology and psychology are both subject to God’s authority, and exemplifies the best integrative relationship between Christianity and psychology (Entwistle, 2015). This paper will discuss the integration of Christianity and psychology through the Allies model. It will define integration, review reasons and explanations of why Christianity and psychology should be integrated. As well as look at different methods of knowing, the Allies model concept, and the two books idea along with strengths and weaknesses of this model.

While the goal of Christian education and discipleship is spiritual formation of the new believer into a true disciple who makes other true disciples, this concept has been watered down in the American church today by emphasis on programs instead of progressive spiritual growth in every member’s life. There are many

Ephesians 6:12 says, “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.”

Religion inspired a lot of people to go into battle. (“Influences from religion during the Civil

The two groups who were especially important to this era were the women and followers of the Social Gospel Movement. A group Protestant ministers who later became known as the Social Gospel Movement fought for justice in society and ending prostitution and poverty encouraged middle class citizens to join the fight for Progressive reform. The middle-class women of the late nineteenth century who were first generation college graduates who worked outside the home in the few professional jobs available for women. Most of these men and women were brought up in deeply religious families so they had a zeal for pursuing social reform.

Living life as a Christian, in many ways is difficult in that there is always a war being fought by the enemy for your faith. Dickson insists that, “there are clear New Testament passages urging us all to speak up for Christ when we can” (Dickson, 101). Christians are called to a life of spreading the gospel to all mankind and nations. Dickson urges that the gospel is the announcement of our King coming to make all things new again. Christian’s are called by Jesus Himself to spread this news and work of God’s anointed King and messiah Jesus! The main nugget Christians should take from this is how everyone is not an evangelists, however, Christians are clearly called to proclaim Christ from our lips as well as

Evangelism is a passion of mine and this semester has helped me to develop more as a person and strengthen my passion for evangelism. Usually when you hear the word Evangelism most of the time, you will start to fear because of rejection. During my Christian walk, sometimes I have experienced the fear of rejection as it relates to Evangelism. However, this semester has taught me not to fear." Evangelism is standing up for your faith even if everyone else remains seated 1(Earley and Wheeler

There are many factors that can determine the outcome of a war: manpower, technology, finances. Additionally, the value of morale and leadership during battle is undeniable, and the two are instrumental in determining the conclusion of the war. However, so often forgotten is the significance of religion and faith and the role belief plays in combat. Understanding soldiers’ faith during and after wartime may suggest that religious combatants are more effective and showcase the necessity of God in battle.

Spiritualism is the belief that someone can communicate with the other side through a medium. Mediums use their psychic ability to see someone's past, present, and future by tuning into the non-physical energy surrounding them. There are a lot of different organizations all over the world that supports spiritualism or any kind of paranormal activity. There is an organization in Connecticut called the ASPSI, meaning The Academy of Spirituality and Paranormal Studies, Inc. The mission of the ASPSI is to develop knowledge of how paranormal phenomena may relate to and enhance the development of the human spirit.

For example, I felt that both sides were religiously motivated. What I mean by this is that both sides would call out their God when they are in distress. For example, Raymond said “Then we called on almighty God, our leader and guide, confident in his mercy” as it gets dark out, because night is a stressful time for both sides. Furthermore, Al-Albiwardi calls out, “O sons of Hashim!” as his men are losing energy to win the

The Just War Theory is a doctrine founded by Saint Augustine which has helped bring much discussion and debate to wars and the morality to fight in them. Wars and fights between people have gone on forever and are not perceived to stop anytime soon so it is important that some people thought about when and why they should ever fight. For many years Christians never part toke in this fighting due to teachings of the Bible and Jesus' teaching on 'turning the other cheek' and 'live by the sword, die by the sword'. Saint Augustine would be one of the first to talk about how a Christian could be a soldier and serve God at the same time. Through this thought we would receive the Just War Theory which gave a set of requirements for someone to partake
