Definition

Theorists have for a long time tried to come up with a definition of a human being. Since time immemorial, there have been attempts aimed at looking into detail as to what a human being is and the characteristics that define this ‘being.’ Various definitions have come up with the aim of bringing into the light the aspect of human being. In this paper, I seek to assert that a human being is a societal construction of an individual who satisfies all the characteristics of a human being as described by the society and one who has the capacity to exhibit these characteristics; and has the ...

Introduction

Authority is a crucial theme in the Christian faith as it plays an indispensable part to its authentic transmission. It determines the credibility of the teacher as well as the validity and acceptability of the teachings. In systematic theology, authority distinguishes between the sound Christian theology and the dangerous heretical ones. In the life of the Church, it is authority that provides stability of community life, confidence in the authenticity of the teachings received, and the confidence of the strength of the Christian witness to those who still do not believe. In fact, doubt in authority can bring an ...

Christian faith vs. Islamic faithIntroduction Christianity is a translation from the ancient Greek language of the word Christos. This term means the anointed one in the Hebrew language.

An article published in a 2002 edition of The Modern Language Review noted that there is a growing belief among scholars that Sir Gawain is a misogynistic figure who descends “to the level of a churl capable of abusing the ladies of (the Green Knight’s) household” (Morgan, 265). Indeed, Gawain’s rant, which takes place near the end of the classic medieval poem, is part of an ancient literary tradition that reaches into the distant past. And yet Gawain is also a contradictory figure, a knight errant critical of women in the story and yet a hero who bore the image of the Virgin Mary ...

The differences between the Christianity and Judaism lie in the differences of understanding, evaluation and apprehension of the Old Testament and the New Testament. To understand what happens then, we must first take into account the fact that, originally, the nascent Christian movement is fully Jewish. Jesus himself is Jewish. His disciples were Jewish. And all the great figures of the first Christian generation, Jacques, Peter, and Paul, to name a few, are Jews. Thus, the Christian movement was born and began to grow within Judaism. However, that Judaism was soon through a terrible crisis, caused by the destruction ...

The set of doctrines surrounding the consideration of the end of time, particularly with regard to the fate of humanity and the resolution of human history, is the subject known as eschatology. Within the Christian consideration of these concepts, theologians and believers tend to emphasize heaven, hell, death, resurrection and the return of Jesus Christ to this plane. Indeed, such subjects as the rapture of the believers and the last judgment receive considerable attention (Jorgenson 115). Three facets of eschatology --- the Second Coming, the Rapture and the Judgment – come under consideration in this paper, as do the perspectives ...

In Euthyphro of Plato, we are introduced first to a conversation that goes on between Socrates and Euthyphro with an explanation by Euthyphro on his intention to prosecute his father on the murder that he strongly believes that he has committed in his presence. It is clear that Socrates from the start of Euthyphro has one objective in mind; questioning the ones around him and provoking them in questioning their own lives aspects. A good example is the question that he directs to Euthyphro that at first glance looks confusing. The argument clearly states that the morality idea is solely ...

God loved his creation that he gave his begotten son for those who trust in him would have the favor of God and would enjoy eternal life (John 3:16). In this scripture, John refers to Jesus as the one and only son of God who came to earth to deliver humankind from the bondage of sins. Jesus is the only son of God; he connected us to his father (GOD). The powers of the Holy Spirit inspire the birth of Jesus Christ hence revealing present of a supreme being God. Therefore, vividly showing that he is the true son of ...
