Isaac Rosenberg and Siegfried Sassoon used poetic techniques such as imagery, metaphors, similes and personification throughout their poems “Break of Day in the Trenches” and “Counter-Attack”. Compare the ways that the two poems are similar. Isaac Rosenberg is the poet of the poem “In Break of Day in the Trenches”. His poem reflects his outlooks & feelings towards the participation of war. Throughout the poem Rosenberg reveals his perspective on the uselessness of war using symbolic images of a rat “A queer sardonic rat” to a creature that benefits and a poppy as a flower that can grow form dead corpses.
In this famous work, Lewis conveys an imaginary, dream-like encounter between souls in hell and souls in heaven. Thus, it is in his works of fiction that his religious concerns are memorably animated. The novel’s popularity demonstrates that the means of imaginative fiction can be successfully used for religiously-motivated ends. In his biography of Lewis, Douglas Gresham argues that Lewis had the most fun with imaginative works of literature; he notes that “Lewis thrived on the imaginative portrayals of Christian doctrine envisioned by George Macdonald” (212). The imagination permits, to be sure, the exploration of things religious precisely because it involves other-worldly events and characters that fit some of the fantastic concepts in religious stories or figures.
The Amish has basic Christian beliefs and they are very spiritual. The Amish would much rather practice their faith then teach formal doctrines. In their daily life they try and seek the teachings of Jesus by loving their Jesus and trying to forgive their forgiving insults. The teachings are emphasized through the Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew. The Amish have followed their lead with the Swiss Anabaptist Forbears which a lot of the ones that were forbears died in the 16th century for their faith.
For a superior grade your work must demonstrate further comprehensive research for authoritative texts or peer review journals. Remember no first person. Luke’s gospel is the most insightful and richly literary of the synoptic gospels. With his interesting outlook and purposeful style of writing, he included the account of the last supper and all of its preparation with the intent of foreshadowing the death and resurrection of the Lord. With a final farewell to his disciples, Jesus was setting up what would become one of the most beloved of all of the sacraments of the body of believers.
Primarily, the theses were challenges to the selling of indulgences (more on indulgences below). Initially they met with unimpressive response. But when the impact of Luther’s ideas reached Rome’s ear, a landslide of activity ensued: two roman inquisitions against Luther (1518 and 1520), Luther is excommunicated after refusing to recant his teachings at the Diet of Worms (1521), increased threat of being killed as a heretic results in Fredrick the Wise hiding Luther at Wartburg Castle (1521-1522). Luther continued author papers on his thoughts and theology until his death in 1546. His courage to stand firm for faith, freedom, and education of every soul by the word of God changed the face of Christendom forever.
That's why I preach my way through entire books of the Bible, dealing carefully with each verse and phrase--even though that occasionally means spending time in passages that don't readily lend themselves to anecdotal or motivational messages. I am grateful to the Lord for the way He has used this exposi- tory approach in our church and in the lives of our radio listeners. But now and then someone tells me frankly that my preaching needs to be less doctrinal and more practical. Practical application is vital. I don't want to minimize its importance.
Andrea Young BT 3180 – Bible and Theology Prof. Tommy Harrison Week 4 - Assignment 1 Miller’s Book Review This is a review of Patrick D. Miller’s book entitled Deuteronomy: Interpretation - A Bible Commentary for Teaching and Preaching. Miller begins with an introduction to his book by declaring himself and what this book is about, where Miller (2012:1) states, “The aim of this introduction is to ask some typical questions having to do with the background of the literary work and to think about it as a whole.” Miller pointed out that in doing so the book of Deuteronomy may give readers some clues to understanding the book and its purpose. He stated that the title of the book normally gives some indication of the subject matter and that sometimes the title may be clear upon reading the book. Miller claims that Deuteronomy gives readers some indication of the book’s character (Miller, 2012:1-5). The author provides a rich and comprehensive interpretation of the text through the book, describes the revelation of the Book in the New Testament, analyses the blueprint for a moral and just society as prescribed by The Laws of Moses, defines the proper role of leaders and priests from the Biblical perspective, and expounds upon exactly how individuals must interact in a divinely-inspired society.
In both poems ‘Where I Come From by Elizabeth Brewster’ and ‘Summer Farm by Norman MacCaig’, the author makes a dominant connection between the natural world and mankind by addressing the importance of digging down to your roots, finding your own identity through it and also focusing on how nature alters to fit with your emotional state. In ‘Where I Come From by Elizabeth Brewster’, it concentrates on idea that wherever you come from, you carry a sense of that place in your mind. By trying to convey this message and create the effect of a nostalgic poem, the author had used many techniques such as sibilance, similes, alliteration and metaphors. On the other hand, in ‘Summer Farm by Norman MacCaig’, the author’s central idea is to get across the message that the natural world is created according to the emotions of man. The author tries to put across his thoughts through using techniques such as juxtaposition, introspective perception, recursion, rhyme, assonance and alliteration.
However, the use of “widening gyre” and “tide” highlights a sense of foreboding, suggesting that history will make a reoccurrence and peace will never be restored because society will not learn from its mistakes. From a modern day reader it can be understood that Yeats’ prediction of history was correct as the Second World War began just shortly after the poet’s death. In The Second Coming Yeats creates images of disaster and catastrophe through words such as “anarchy” and “drowned”. The word “anarchy” could refer to the disorder and chaos that was once held back by civilization but as a result of World War One it has now been loosed into the world. Whilst the war had ended shortly before the publishing of the poem, the word “blood-dimmed” suggests that the tragedy of the First World War will never be completely forgotten as the memory of disaster will always
