November 21, 2012 Afterlife from a Christian Point of View Have you ever thought about what happens after you die; if there is something after this life? There are many different approaches to whether there is life after death or not, but in this paper we will be looking at the Christian perspective towards the afterlife. Christianity is the largest religion in the world today due to it being branched down into different groups, and it is a known fact that there is no other religion today that has

god that gave salvation and hope. Salvation from this life and onto the next. This ideology would eventually come in many different forms, languages, and ideas. However, they were all waved under one flag and one religion; the cause of Christianity. The Gospel of Matthew: Chapters 4-7 quite accurately covers the main threats that Christianity posed to the Roman Empire. Why was Christianity such a major threat to the Roman Empire at the time of its conceivement? The belief of salvation in the form of

The Romans Road is an evangelical intellectual method of sharing the gospel, using the approach of laying out the plan of salvation through verses from the book of Romans itself. Verses are fashioned into a teaching which outlines who is in need of salvation, why man needs salvation, how God provides that salvation, a response to salvation, and man’s own response to God’s salvation. Advantages of Using This Method – One advantage to The Romans Road method, is that the process is biblically based, introducting

Lottery” by Chris Abani, “Absolutely Fabulous” by Augusten Burroughs and “Salvation” by Langston Hughes are three essays that individually describe significant, personal events that had taken place in the authors’ lives. Abani’s “The Lottery” explores the issues of injustice, religion and social pressure. Burroughs’s “Absolutely Fabulous” has a dark sense of humor that states the many odd ways to lose weight. Finally, Hughes’s “Salvation” focuses on the subject of religion, and false judgment. Chris Abani’s

the nonbeliever through specific verses in the Bible. These verses have been selected because they call attention to the need for salvation, they state the good news that a way to salvation has already been prepared, they warn nonbelievers of what will happen if the nonbeliever remains in the sinful state, they inform the nonbeliever that there is no other way to salvation except through Jesus, and they proclaim that confessing this truth is the action which needs to be taken. Dr. Jack Hyles preached

“Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God” written by Jonathan Edwards is one of the most infamous sermons ever written. I chose this work because I found it to be such a radical sermon full blunt and harsh interpretations of God. Edwards’ work certainly gets his message of “the wrath of God that is expressed in the torments of Hell” to make an impact on his audience, but I do not feel as though he interpreted the judgement and wrath of God in a viable way. Edwards begins his sermon by basically saying

the Position of Mary, Purgatory and The Means of Salvation The Catholic Church sees Mary as the Mother of God, giving birth to a son that was God in the form of a human. She remained a virgin both before and after the birth of Jesus. The Protoevangelium of James, an important historical document of the Catholic Church, states that Mary would not be able to live an ordinary life compared to most mothers but rather

no longer want to say, “Merry Christmas” or they spell it X-mas. When Paul went into Athens, he went with the knowledge of their culture and knew how to apply the Gospel to their teachings. Human needs have not changed. We all are in need of salvation. As the human race has evolved in scientific knowledge, psychology, and philosophy, God’s word has remained unchanged. By the Holy Spirit, God’s word has the ability to speak truth to the hearts of any culture. As humans, we all have the same
