    How is Luke’s claim on repentance of sinners in the ‘Parable of the Lost Sheep’ being illustrated by the differences in detail found, in comparison to the Gospels of Matthew and Thomas? The Parable of the Lost Sheep is one of the many parables Jesus gave during his lifetime. It is found in the two canonical gospels: Matthew 18:10-14 and Luke 15:3-10. It is also found in the non-canonical gospel of Thomas 107. It is about a shepherd who leaves his flock of ninety-nine sheep behind to go look for

    Frankly, to cover each and every theological nugget found within the Beatitudes would be too great of a task to fit into the constraints of this paper. That being said I will focus on those that are extrapolated from the overall text versus those pulled from individuals. Nevertheless, I will make brief mention of these at the end the sake of thoroughness. The kingdom of heaven develops into a serious, if not the prominent, theme of the Sermon on the Mount, and dare I say is probably the most protruding

    This week’s reading takes a more in depth look at the current synoptic problem. Blomberg lightly discusses the main hypotheses (Oxford, Griesbach, and Q) by engaging in their strengths and weaknesses alike. He also discusses the possible synoptic sources, mainly “L”, “M”, and “Q”. He does briefly relay some more historical figures, early church fathers mostly, and their seemingly archaic views on synoptic priority compared to the scholastic achievements in more recent eras. McKnight gives a closer

    The Beatitudes may appear as if they are merely a simple arrangement of blessings, but in reality they are full of meaning and beyond any ordinary passage in the Bible. Every line in the Beatitudes is not only a blessing, but a call for action directed towards the people of Israel. The passage seems to focus on Jesus as he speaks to his disciples and the crowd listening about how they could achieve the righteousness that will create the foundation of Heaven. He is not simply encouraging people to

    Alex Todd Religion 110 10 October 2017 When looking in the Gospel of Matthew 15:21-28 and the Gospel of Mark 7:24-30 one can find that each of these pieces of their respective gospels have both some similarities and differences. There is evidence of overlap between these two which are quite easy to find whilst one is reading the sections of each. There also are points in which these two accounts diverge from one another by either telling a certain part of the other gospel in a different way, removing

    In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus introduced the eight beatitudes to teach his followers how to live an ideal Christian life. He taught those who listened about the 8 important blessings to guide us to soon be living an everlasting life with God in His kingdom above. Some of the Beatitudes influence us to feel compassion towards those who have wronged us, to be able to act out of the goodness of our hearts, and to bring peace and harmony to friends and enemies in times of disagreement. These Beatitudes
