Gospel Of Luke Crucifixion Periscope Jesus
471 wordsThe crucifixion periscope is one of the most read and studied stories of the gospels, second only to the story of the resurrection. Lukes presentation of the darkest day in Christianity is appropriately not as poetic and literary elegant as some of his other writings, yet dramatic.

Act Of God Divine Command Hear
456 wordsIn Divine Command Divine Command In my opinion, trying to differentiate between the Divine Command and the acts of God that impinge on ones consciousness is one in the same. Divine command to me would basically be the entire Holy Bible. An act of God to me is just waking up in the morning and being able to breathe new air and live another day.
