The Word Of God : God

In the Holy Bible, which is inspired by the word of God, whom is the creator of the heavens and earth, tells of a story about Joseph and his brothers. In the story Joseph brothers sell him into Egypt slavery. The reason begin, Joseph father, guided and love him more. This of course,

For this assignment I have decided to write an exegesis of Matthew 17:1-13. I have chosen the New International Version (NIV) as it is easier to read and understand. The New Spirit Filled Life Bible commentary explains that the book of Mathew was written around A.D 50-75 (Hayford 1321). The

We [the disciples] did not follow cleverly invented stories when we told [the people] about the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty. (New International Version, 2 Peter

Since then, the origin of the universe became a very big question to everyone. The curiosity we possess help us seek answers from different questions we can think of. Different hypotheses and ideas were formed with great scientific evidence to prove that the universe began as a single primordial atom. The scientists even found out that the universe is expanding because of the great amount of dark matter present in it. However, with these ideas, the religious thinking of people could not be removed. The concept of God being the Creator of all the things that existed contradicts the views of the theories formed. The stories and verses contained in the bible are different from the results of studies connected to it. Here, I investigate the things

Certain philosophers would have you believe that science at best is an integrated, and reconstituted distillation of all the current knowledge at any one time (much like Campbell's condensed Tomato soup: boring and uninteresting). A diminutive subset of these natural thinkers has even dared to characterize our universe as

What is suggested in the Bible and the teachings of Jesus? Whilst the bible does not specifically mention euthanasia, it does address closely related topics. Euthanasia is essentially killing out of mercy, hence the name ‘mercy killing’. The bible tells us that we are not to murder (Exodus 20:13) and any form of taking a life is seen as killing. It says that we die when God chooses us to, and to murder is an attempt to deny God his right of appointing death. Therefore, ‘mercy killing’ is going against God’s will and is a sin. The sixth commandment is “You shall not murder”, and that justifies what is previously said. However, in the beatitudes, it says “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy”. If we show mercy by killing,

“In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God, and the Word was God” (John 1:1 KJV). This familiar passage of scripture recorded in the Gospel of John indicates the deity and or preexistence of Jesus Christ prior to time as we know it and before the creation of earth. The strongest proof that the Lord Jesus Christ is God are the divine attributes, divine names, divine works, divine worship, divine claims and divine relationship ascribed to Him.

The opening chapter of the bible, known as the Genesis, begins with the words “In the beginning God created the havens and the earth” (Genesis 1:1). The text tells us that the earth was formless, empty, and dark. The Bible reveals that God made the world and all that is in it out of nothings. He spoke His Word, and everything came into existence. According to Genesis 1, God created the earth in six days. On the first day, God created the light. On the second day, He created the firmament called heaven. On the third day, God created the dry land in the midst of the lower waters. On the fourth day, He created the sun, the moon and the stars. One the fifth say, He created the fish and all the other living creatures in the oceans and the lakes. On the sixth day, God created the land animals and man. He created man in his own image and placed man in charge of the animals. The seventh say, God rested from His work of

English IV Jacob Taylor Mr. Surratt November 16, 2017 Abstract The King James version of the Bible affected many things and had a major impact on society and the English language. It was created by King James to benefit and fill a request given by the puritans to King James. It took seven years

In the Books of Genesis, God is above all other words, autonomous. His ferocity and vehemence is undisputed, and his acts against human evil/sin are apocalyptic. While literary characters have attempted to understand the Lord and his divinity, no response is a better understanding than God’s response, “I AM WHO I AM” to Moses (3:14). With authority and conviction over the breadth of his creation, it is the belief of God that through

There is no doubt about it, at least once or twice, you have heard someone say that life is mysterious and everything happens for some unexplainable reason. In any case, the fifty-three residents who live in the rural southern farming community of Wrongberight swear by it. According to the locals,

Even as a little boy Christ was wise beyond his years. In Luke 2:46-50 Jesus, at the age of twelve, was accidently left at the temple, in Jerusalem, by His parents, for three days. When Mary and Joseph find Him, Jesus is sitting among the teachers listening and asking questions and these teachers and those in the temple were amazed at Jesus’ understanding and responses. His parents did not understand and Christ submitted to them respectively. This is a foundational moment in Jesus’ life. Christ has answers beyond understanding just as counselors seem to have an aura of future knowledge and understanding. In this incident teachers are with Christ and they are collaborating and expanding their knowledge. Even though Mary and Joseph do not understand this Jesus humbles himself to submit to them. Humbly, Christ is working with others and learning just as a counselor must continually expand their knowledge

Responding to such a question as the one stated on responding to a friend who asks you why you believe in the Bible, and asks "Isn't it a book just like any other piece of literature?" would be a difficult question, but let alone a very plausible question to be asked to a Christian in a one's lifetime. I have personally been asked this question before on multiple occasions, and there are many responses I have given as according to being sensitive to the circumstances upon which the question was asked. I believe in the Bible as being the authoritative word of God, and the divinely inspired, and breathed out word of God (2 Timothy 3:16). To use a response that would allow this message to portray itself accurately, I would likely use 3 main

“Lift up your eyes and look from the place where you are” Genesis 13:14. The word genesis is the dawning of creation, and the biblical book of Genesis is the book that brings fourth the creation of our planet and the life that resides. Genesis also describes the descent of Adam and Eve and unveils the foundation that sin builds upon. Genesis introduces the origin of the holy land, Israel, and inception of holy covenants promised by the holy trinity; the son, the father, and the holy spirit. Genesis communicates the definite events of one of the most contended controversies of our current philosophical climate, the origin of all things existing. This holy book of creation faces several critical issues, such as stylistic variation, and

The bible was written as an account of what many viewed that God had accomplished so his actions and words could be passed on for generations. Some believe it is a literary account and some believe it is a historical account. The word of God in the bible comes in many forms and is left up to interpretation by the reader. Some believe that the word of God should be the only word and should be strictly followed. Some believe that the words are meant as a guideline to help us through life. Whatever your belief is you can always seem to find the meaning behind your belief through the word of God in the Bible.
