In Thomas The Age Of Reason
1,579 wordsThomas Paine wrote The Age of Reason in 1784. In it he included his views on the religions known throughout the world. For this, he was ridiculed and despised by many in society. Thomas Paine once said that a sermon he heard at the age of eight impressed him with the cruelty inherent in Christianity and made him a rebel forever. It is my opinion that, because of this, he lived the rest of his life never to actually study the Bible or Christianity. Because he was a rebel forever to the Christian ...

Holy Spirit Jesus Christ
2,190 wordsI believe the Holy Bible was authored by God and written by men inspired of the Holy Spirit.

Life After Death Relationship With God
1,771 wordsI was raised Catholic, at the instance of my parents. After many years of drinking and partying, I got very bored and thought, Is this ALL there is to life? ! ? ! I thought, If there really IS any truth to a life after death, I should at least TRY to find the answer. I started to do some research on science and religion to see if I could come up with any TRUTH about the meaning of life. In school, I was taught that mankind was evolving and getting better, but it didnt appear that way to me. It S...

Mount Sinai Promised Land
2,199 words... (Hag. 1: 13); Malachi says that people should seek the law from the mouth of a priest, who is a "messenger (mal " ak) of the LORD" (Mal. 2: 7). Let's look at a couple of key verses in the story of the Israelites' escape from Egypt: EXODUS 13: 21 And the LORD went before them by day in a pillar of cloud to lead the way, and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, so as to go by day and night. (NKJV) EXODUS 14: 19 And the Angel of God, who went before the camp of Israel, moved and wen...

The Servant In Book Of Isaiah
963 wordsThe series of four songs found in Isaiah that are referred to as the servant songs present an interesting question. Who is the servant that these songs are talking about? The suffering servant could be Jesus the Messiah, the collective righteous persons of Israel, the individual righteous person of Israel, or Jeremiah, who is one of the prophets. Who the suffering servant is not of the utmost importance when discussing these songs, what is important is that the nature of the servant himself be d...

Judaism Christianity And Islam Century Bce
1,089 wordsThe five books of Pentateuch (Genesis-Deuteronomy), for example, traditionally are ascribed to Moses. But by the eighteenth century, many European scholars noticed problems with that assumption. Not only does Deuteronomy end with an account of Moses' death (a tough assignment for any writer to describe his or her own demise), but the entire Pentateuch shows anomalies of style that are hard to explain if only one author is involved. By the nineteenth century, most scholars agreed that the Pentate...

Judaism Christianity And Islam Judaism And Islam
2,566 words1. The Orthodox Jewish view holds that God revealed his will to Moses at Mount Sinai in a verbal fashion. According to Jewish tradition, this dictation is said to have been exactly transcribed by Moses. The Torah was then exactly copied by scribes, from one generation to the next. Based on the Talmud (Tractate Getting 60 a) some believe that the Torah may have been given piece-by-piece, over the 40 years that the Israelites wandered in the desert. In either case, the Torah is considered a direct...

Lord Jesus Christ Good Person
2,037 wordsThe first book of the Bible is called the Septuagint (the Greek translation of the Old Testament) Genesis. Genesis means origin. The Hebrews call it the first Hebrew word Bereshith in the beginning. It is the book of all the beginnings.

The marvelous structure of the Bible, composed of the different books, w...

Dead Sea Scrolls God Created Man
5,283 wordsReligion is a hard basis for some people to talk about. For me, quite simple, I just tell people about my Lord God. Some people argue that is an outrageous idea but no more outrageous than any other religion. In C christianity, you have to communicate and glorify the Lord whereas in other religions, you just simply refer to the teachings. Many that do not believe in Christianity use pride, moral problems, and ignorance as excuses. The foundation of everything that I believe in is found in the Bi...

Relationship With God Hebrew Word
1,871 wordsTsedaqah- Righteousness The Hebrew word for righteousness is Tsedaqah. Tsedaqah is a noun in the feminine form; the masculine form of the word is tse deq. To most scholars, the words are interchangeable. However, A. Jersey contends that tse deq means, right order and that tsedaqah is the idea of human well being or right behavior. Since it more often used interchangeably, that is how it is taken in this paper. However, the passages that were taken into account for this paper used tsedaqah only. ...
