I had 4-19 and to start it off it had four warnings and the consequences of the four warnings. The first warning was, “It's the narrow gate, not the broad road, that leads to life.” the consequences of not following this warning that Jesus gave us is “Those who take the broad road end up in destruction.” The second warning that Jesus gave to us is “Beware of false prophets, you’ll know them by their fruit.” The consequences are “Those who bear bad fruit will be thrown into the fire. The third warning Jesus gives us is “Not all the followers of Jesus really are.” The consequences are “Those who don't obey God will be rejected” The last warning that Jesus gives us is “If you do what Jesus says your life will be on a firm foundation, if not it won’t be.” And the consequences are “Those who build on sand (or a bad foundation) will not prosper. Those are …show more content…
This was my answer - Having support, knowing you will go to heaven, God will be there for us. This is another question you can ask yourself, What makes being a Christian difficult? And this was my answer - Hard to be nice to people 24/7, knowing we might be persecuted, there is sin in the world. So these are some things you can think about.
It also says in this chapter “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. And this is saying that if you follow God you will do anything to be with him even if it's the hard way.
I think of a person named Daniel when I think about this, Daniel was a person who prayed to God no matter what, every day, every night. Daniel did so much to be with God, He avoided false prophets, He built his foundation in God, He brought good fruit to the world. Daniel was thrown into the lions den but still he trusted God and
Summary and Response of “Why I Use Trigger Warnings” by Kate Manne In her article “Why I Use Trigger Warnings” Kate Manne states her various reasons for using trigger warnings in her lectures.

In The Old Man and the Sea, an old man named Santiago “has achieved true existence and is a spiritually fulfilled man,” (Handy 1) as said in William Handy’s article. But I am qualifying the quote. Santiago had many conflicts and only prayed to God in a situation of need to catch the fish he was after for three straight days.

Additionally, chapter six elaborates its main point by exploring the six dangers of wealth. The six dangers are as followed; beware of the strangler, beware of the worrier, beware of the blinder, beware of the boss, beware of the damner, and beware of the curse. The first danger, beware of the strangler, refers to the faith of people and the obstacles around them that could prevent the faith of God to flourish in their lives. Kraybill furthers this belief by associating the people with a seed, and the many obstacles that prevent its fruit from thriving. The second danger address in the book is to beware of the worrier. Kraybill expands on this by letting its readers know that Jesus does not want us to worry about tomorrow. This is due to the fact that tomorrow will be filled with its own worries and the worries of today are already a lot to handle. Moreover, the third danger is to beware of the blinder. The concept is to not let wealth and power blind ones path and fall astray

This quote comes into play while Janie and Tea Cake are in the Glades getting ready to leave because of a hurricane. At this point Janie and Tea Cake have waited to late to leave and are trying to decide if they want to try and beat the water or just stay there. I found this quote important because it ties the title of the book in with the situations that occur in the book. They are sitting there and despite the situation around them they can still find security within each other and God.
In our case, our client’s warnings about raw foods were displaced and were not visible to customers. In Jarrell, the court established a legal standard for adequate warning. According to the decision in Jarrell, there are two prongs for adequate warning. The first prong is intensity, which in this case means a visible sign. In her restaurant, our client had two warnings. One was placed on the menu and the other was the 3 x 5 cards on the tables, interview 2: 21, which could have been sufficient to heighten the warning and mitigate the harm. The second prong is that those warnings should cause the reasonable person to be aware of the possible danger. I would argue that our client met both prongs of the standard and the court would most
The principles are for continual growth and elevation for Christians. The instructions in The Bible are not only for guidance is a comforting and strengthening agent. Given this statistic, this could be an additional reason why God created mankind in His image to take part in on other wonderful helpful contributions.

Some men saw him praying when the windows to his chambers were opened; it was forbidden to pray to anyone except the king. The men brought Daniel before the king and Daniel was thrown into a den of lions, but the lions did not hurt him. Then the king commanded that Daniel should be taken up out of the den of lions. Then King Darius wrote all the nations that dwelt on earth to decree that they should fear the God of Daniel, for He is the living God, enduring and steadfast forever, and His Realm shall never be destroyed and His Dominion should be to the end of the world.
The first challenge Christian faces is his guilt. As a Christian, I was always taught right from wrong according to the Bible and when I am in the wrong for something, I feel guilty because I know it is wrong and that it is not necessarily how God wants me to live my life or what he wants from me. The guilt arises because I am promised eternal greatness after my life here on earth as long as I believe in Jesus Christ and I continue to strive to be a Christian, and well lets face it, who would not feel guilty being promised such an amazing thing in exchange for being a good person and following the biblical scripture of Christ. “I dreamed, and behold, I saw a man
After reading Courageous Faith: Life Lessons from Old Testament Heroes, the hero that I mostly identify with is Jacob. Jacob life was a never-ending struggles due to his un-wiliness to believe in the plan that God had for him. Time and time again, instead of allowing God to do thing in his way. Jacob, being a man full of fear, and loss of trust in God always inferred making the situation worse. Just as Jacob, I also have difficulty in my faith with God.
