We can also discern the true Shepherd's through their teachings about the incarnation of Christ and deity of our Lord Jesus. Our Saviour advised us "by their fruit you will recognize them. "(Matthew 7:20). If someone is not providing teaching based on Jesus Christ's theology then he is proving himself false. Satan and his minions have corrupted the minds of those people who listen to his deceptive ideas so as to continue their hell-based schemes.
Steven Jones Book Review Professor Minton 26 November 2011 Book Review My book was George W. Bush’s biography, the main point he was trying to get across was the life style and the events that take place while someone is in office. He also focused on the main points that led us to the war with Iraq and Afghanistan. For the most part normal American people don’t really know what goes on behind closed doors and he paints a picture of what the presidency is all about. He also takes you through the process and decisions that have to be made during a time of war. The thoughts are so vivid it seems like you are right there with him as he explains step for step the life style and daily activity of an American

DeAcheca Wilson ETH125 September 21, 2015 Sarah Lange I am choosing to do this paper on Jehovah’s Witnesses and Arab Americans. I have chosen these two because both fascinate me in a lot of ways. Jehovah’s Witness were founded by Charles Taze Russell in the early 1872 in Alleghany, PA. According to religionfacts.com to this day there are over six million practicing Jehovah’s Witnesses worldwide. Jehovah’s Witnesses believe that Jesus is God only direct creation that everything else was created by means of Christ, and the initial unassisted act of creation uniquely identifies Jesus as God “only begotten Son”.

This paper is a review of Phyllis Tickle’s book, “The Great Emergence: How Christianity is Changing and Why,” published in 2008 by Baker Books. The author Phyllis Tickle introduces the book as a piece that seeks to use history as its background to being a conversation about the change that is slowly taking place in our society today in Christianity – that the American church is on the cusp of a major change on the scale of the great schism and the reformation. Tickle begins the book explaining what she describes as “The Great Emergence,” through the illustration of a rummage sale – in that a rummage sale the owners seek to clear out what is unnecessary and no longer relevant or needed. Tickle proposes that this is exactly what the church needs and is heading towards, if not already there. The traditions, beliefs and practices that the church has held up to this point will be sort out and discarded as a result of the changing times.
Both canonical and non-canonical texts were referenced throughout the film. Dostoevsky’s The Brothers Karamazov is referenced at the beginning of the movie with the prophecy that in a Godless society, meaning exists only in the commercial value of its people and culture. Goodness itself becomes irrelevant. The suggestion that Daniel will live on after his death (through his organ donation and the naming of the theatre after him, does not reflect Canonical opinion on the bodily resurrection of Christ occurring after three
Guns, Germs and Steel is a three – part documentary that was shown on both PBS and National Geographic channels. The author of this documentary was written by Jared Diamond and was released in 2003. There is also a best – selling book with the same name and author, which was released in 1997. The main question that is being answered throughout the documentary is mainly why some parts of the world have become rich powerful while other parts remain underprivileged? While there is no clear answer right now, author, Jared Diamond travels to a part of the world to search for “the roots of inequality.” Diamond discards some of the discriminatory philosophies of natural and cultural dominance or inadequacy, but rather focusing more on how environmental
Technically, discussions of worldviews will fall into 1 of 6 categories – theism, deism, pantheism, naturalism, and polytheism – but in the real world, peoples belief are not always that easily categorized. Mormons claim to be monotheistic (theism), but are essentially polytheistic, as the teaching of Joseph Smith, the founder of the Mormon Church, stated: "I have always declared God to be a distinct personage, Jesus Christ a separate and distinct personage from God the Father, and that the Holy Ghost was a distinct personage and a spirit; and these three constitute three distinct personages and three distinct gods". Additional data supporting the position that Mormons truly are polytheists is their belief and worship in both God the Father (Doctrine and Covenants 18:40) and Jesus Christ (3 Nephi 11:17; 2 Nephi 25:29), as well as their view of God the Father and Jesus as two separate gods. One of the more interesting aspects of Mormonism is its reliance and use of the Doctrine and Covenants and the Book of Mormon. While many reason the Book of Mormon is their criterion for the Mormon worldview and practice of the church, the reality is that there is not a single unique doctrine of Mormonism imparted within its pages.
Ivan Lopez Karen Rasmussen COMM 301 November 23, 2012 Fahrenheit 9/11 In 2004 Michael Moore released his highly anticipated documentary film titled Fahrenheit 9/11. The title is a play on “Fahrenheit 451,” the temperature at which paper burns, and a novel by Ray Bradbury about a future totalitarian state in which reading and independent thought are forbidden. The documentary film closely examines the war on terror, the Bush presidency, and how they were portrayed by the media. The film starts off by questioning the accuracy of the 2001 election that resulted in George W. Bush winning the election. Fahrenheit 9/11 is the highest grossing documentary film of all time.
