To maintain the integrity of the study, the research must exhaust ever effort to take themselves out of the research, allowing the research to speak for itself. Biblical exegesis can influences one’s research; a researcher should acknowledge their assumptions, taking steps to mitigate them from the research.

Introduction The book, Putting the Truth to Work, by Daniel Doriani is a useful book which brings forth effective methods for advancing faithful biblical practices in sermon preparation and delivery. The author provides a prelude to hermeneutics with a focus toward developing sermon applications. Once the background has been set, he then talks about specific plans for implementing unique categories of Scripture in a Christocentric way. Doriani has written a lot of books on many different subjects
Among the numerous works that are dedicated to the study of Christological and soteriological themes, the work of Walter Kasper, Jesus the Christ, stands out with a vigor and character. This work is considered, in itself, an outline of the overall presentation of the great Christological concerns. The author, who seems to be a well acquainted with the exhibition of the Christological themes from classical theology, has devoted many hours to the study of modern philosophy. To all of this, it must

According to the Oxford Dictionary of Philosophy, “hermeneutics is the method of interpretation first of texts, and secondly of the whole social, historical, and psychological world.” ("Hermeneutics," n.d.). This paper will discuss the central idea of hermeneutics, hermeneutics as a perspective, and hermeneutics as an influence upon research activities as it might relate to instructional technology (IT).

Throughout the 1990s I lived as one of the "working poor," someone who slipped through the cracks of supposedly historic prosperity.

Cixous's The Laugh of the Medusa Critiqued Against Showalter's Essay Feminist Criticism in the Wilderness In learning about feminist theory this semester, one idea that arose from class discussions was the notion of essentialism. Essentialism, a theory that stresses essence as opposed to existence, was discussed at length and while some classmates found it to reductionary and cliché, it is a question that I assume must be asked of ecriture
the result of a process of development that did not end till the time of Yeshua at the earliest, about 400 years after the Buddha’s death or parinibbana. For one thing, it seems unlikely that the Buddha taught in numbered lists or stock paragraphs. What we have in the Pali Canon is rather a snapshot of a collective memory, taken in Sri Lanka, far away from the Buddha’s homeland in northeast India, four hundred years after the Buddha’s death. To adapt a metaphor used by the Buddha himself, it is a
