Good Vs Evil Heaven And Hell
1,210 wordsIn John Milton's Paradise Lost the forces of good vs. evil are major factors throughout the epic. From the beginning of the poem, good vs. evil, or more specifically Heaven vs. Hell and God vs. Satan, become Milton's focal point and the basis of the story. Milton sets up an opposition between his characters. Satan has accomplices such as Moloch and Belial and God has archangels such as Michael and Raphael.

3,274 wordsThe Case For The Existence of God by John Doe, Ph. D. Introduction Either God exists or He doesn't. There is no middle ground. Any attempt to remain neutral in relation to God's existence is automatically synonymous with unbelief. It is far from a "moot" question, for if God does exist, then nothing else really matters; if He does not exist, then nothing really matters at all. If He does exist, then there is an eternal heaven to be gained (Hebrews 11: 16) and an eternal Hell to be avoided (Revel...

Existence Of God Unmoved Mover
2,503 words... oma's Aquinas' First Two Ways in Proving the Existence of God It is my view that God exists, and I think that Aquinas' first two ways presents a successful argument for the existence of God. No doubt, the arguments have weak points which are subjected to criticism but nonetheless, in my opinion, these propositions by Aquinas do indeed accomplish their purpose in establishing the existence of a Greatest Conceivable Being that is the unmoved mover and uncaused cause. I believe that this ultima...

Relationship With God Older Brother
1,544 wordsJacob was born to be a deceiver. He came out of Rebekah's womb "grasping the heel" of his older brother Esau, setting the pattern of deception his life would soon take. But he was also born of God's promise, born to be the father of Nations and revered by his people. How can a trickster inherit such a high place of esteem without earning God's approval through pious prayer and obedience? Elijah the prophet was also special to God; but it was not his patronage that was highly valued, it was his h...

In Part II, Spinoza maintains that there is nothing more to will than individual acts of volition. Thus will is not a "faculty" of God (and this holds for "intellect" as well). It might be objected that without choice, God is not free. Because they follow necessarily from God's essence, things cannot be otherwise than what they are, and this is a limitation of God's power.

Guardian Angel Bible Tells
1,135 wordsANGELIC OVERVIEW: "Angels are spirits, " proclaimed St. Augustine! St. Thomas Aquinas believed that angels were pure spirit, having no matter or mass, and taking up no space; but Thomas believed angels could assume bodies at will. The purpose of angels is the same as mankind: to love and serve the Lord. However, being that angels are not material beings, and possibly from a different dimension, they can serve the Lord in many different ways. Angels have far greater will and intellect than we hav...

Argument will be made that Gawain betrays an isomorphism with Eden's tale. The author's attitude toward t...

2,435 wordsIslam The Arabic word Islam means "to turn oneself over to, to resign oneself, to submit. " In religious terminology, it means submission or surrender to God, or to God's will. The Koran uses the term and its derivatives in about seventy verses.

Justification By Faith End Of History
2,453 words[Course Title] The Christian Faith - Justification The classical Christian insight is captured (but also obscured, as is the fate with all slogans) in the doctrine of "justification by faith. " When a slogan ceases to illuminate and itself becomes a cause of confusion and darkness, it has outlived its usefulness. Possibly that is the case with "justification by faith, " as significant theologians like Paul Tillich have argued. (Tillich 227) The theological presupposition of the notion of justifi...
