According to Dr. Hawkins spiritual gifts have a motivational purpose because they enable the believer to participate in ministry that impacts lives which provides an experience of joy in the use of these gifts. True 21. The doctrine of the Trinity teaches about Gods concern for unity and intimacy among his followers. True 22. Understanding the doctrine of Eschatology can help to provide believers with a source of joy when they are enduring struggles, because this doctrine emphasizes that believers have a future secured by God.
One of the most popular factors attributed to the success of the First Crusade was the deep religious conviction of the first crusaders. They believed that their cause was just, and that God was behind it. This staunch conviction bolstered their efforts to the extent in which they engaged and defeated formidable opponents such as the Egyptians, defying all logical calculation and reasoning. The religious zeal of the crusaders could also have given them the strength to endure and overcome the miserable conditions they found themselves in, sieges and disease. Another reason why the First Crusade was successful was because of its efficient leadership.
“Somerset and Northumberland were effective and capable rulers” Assess the validity of this interpretation. Throughout the reigns of both Northumberland and Somerset there were inevitably issues and successes on both sides. The factors we can assess are Religion, social and economic and finally foreign policy. Northumberland undoubtedly had his problems, as did Somerset, although it is clear that both were capable rulers it was just the situations they both inherited that caused their downfalls. Northumberland’s religious views were unclear as he seemed to drift between beliefs in order to achieve the most power possible for himself.
(Exodus 20:3 You shall have no other Gods me.) I would answer the Teleological question by saying, “We are the Kingdom of God, and because we belong to God’s Kingdom we have purpose and destiny on my life. Since God has purpose on our lives that means he has a plan. Jeremiah 29:11 states, “I know the thoughts I think towards you thoughts of good and not of evil to give you an expected
Indulgence Comes With Strength In society, the actions of more powerful people are tolerated and respected. One has once said, “The strong do as they wish.” This quote can be proved by the actions of characters in the novel, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain. For example, Huck’s father who has authority over Huck engages in violent acts and is somehow tolerated. Furthermore, the power of superstition allows for a slave named Nat to rise to stardom and Tom Sawyer, who is seen as morally powerful, is worshipped by Huck. Not only does physical strength allow the characters act as they desire, but also moral strength and the age in society.
Who knows, maybe even President someday. He possesses great charisma and charm. It seems as though he has great moral fiber also. Time will tell on that aspect. Politics can ruin even the best of men.
The fact that not all thanes could be as courageous and have so many heroic achievements for their countries and rulers is why Beowulf seems so ideal and extraordinary. Beowulf's many achievements told throughout the story gives him the appearance of the most faithful of thanes, who has climbed the social ladder not because he has meant to do so, but because he wishes to protect his country and others and give all the credit to its rulers. This sort of behavior gives him a kind and generous nature that can be traced to a kind of chivalry. Chivalry can also be considered a very important role in the creation of a thane's reputation and popularity. Through Beowulf's chivalry, generosity, friendship, and popularity, all of his kingdom and of others knew him for his heroism and loyalty.
101) This is significant because Freak is acting very brave against Max’s dad while everybody else is scared of him. This is the reason why Freak should be the hero in Freak the Mighty. Last but not least, Freak is the hero because he is helpful. Freak is helpful because he restored Max’s confidence and knowledge by pushing Max to his limits, and by teaching him how to read better. Also, he is helpful because he gave Max a positive point of view.
Furthermore, in the third paragraph, he stated, "Like Paul, I must constantly respond to the Macedonian call for aid." Consequently, he contended that he was a prophet for freedom like Paul, but also like Jesus in the same paragraph. This provided him with the highest level of authority in the religious field. He suggested he had the support of God to wage his war against injustice. Therefore, since God had chosen him, it implied he was of higher moral standards.
Spiritual transcendence of a person's spirit into a “Dimensional Beyondness” has been accepted by believers to have been achieved by most well known religious leaders. Many were Spiritual Transcendentalists who have changed the course of mankind and have been known as individuals who have attempted to correct what they saw as misperceptions within societies. Abraham, Moses, Noah, Jesus, Muhammad, Buddha, Krishna, Bahá'u'lláh, Zoroaster, Ahmad, Nanak and many others of various faiths are believed to have achieved spiritual enlightenment by mastering the art of spiritual transcendence. Is this spiritual transcendence a possibility? My assessment thereof is in the affirmative as a result of my own personal spiritual
