Paul was one of the first delegates to oppose the elders of the church in Jerusalem, and the observance of the Mosaic Law, as long as it did not interfere with the liberty of the Gentiles. Paul believed that salvation is available to all humanity, and salvation was won by Christ’s death and resurrection and given as a pure gift, along with many other things. Paul was a missionary, working to convert gentiles and Jews to Christianity in places where it was not widely practiced. He travelled on four major journeys, spreading the message of Christ. On his journey, Paul also set up Churches with leaders in many major towns.
(2) He followed the teaching of Lucian, his former teacher. He comibined his own intellectual philosophical viewpoints which fueled the fire from which a dispute grew between the young scholar and Bishop Alexander and subsequently among the greater Church. The basic belief of Arianism was the opposition to the divinity of Christ and subsequently the denial of the Holy Spirit. Arius minimized the Christian Trinity and professed the Father alone is the true God. Arius proclaimed, Christ was neither fully God nor fully man, but someone in the middle of both.
The Roman high officials saw Jesus and his Christian followers as a major threat to the Empire, even though Jesus probably had no intention of becoming a zealot, or political rebel. A high governor and judge, Pontius Pilate, had Jesus arrested and crucified. Pilate accused Jesus of treason, because Roman Emperors were supposed to be thought of
This continued until Henry VIII, so desperate to produce a male heir, broke Papal control over England and named himself Head of the Church that taught an offshoot of Christianity based on the teachings of Martin Luther, the Protestant Church of England. This change did not make much difference, as the main different was the head of the Church and belief about divorce. Many more changes came after Henry died in 1547 and Edward VI became king. Edward, led by his advisors, moved England completely from Catholicism and to Protestantism. He passed laws such as making churches and bishops more plain, services be said in English and creating the Book of Common Prayer in 1549 and a refined version in 1552.
Leading the way was perhaps two of the most powerful kings in the western world, King Louis VII of France and King Conrad III of Germany. The march east was mainly because Edessa had fallen but there were other factors as well. Pope Eugenius had recently acquired his office and immediately barred from the city by a communal government. He had not yet been able to enter Rome and could do little himself to help Edessa, but. the manner in which he dealt with the Muslim infidel was likely to be noted.
Source K argues that the Diplomatic situation was a highlight of Henry’s failed attempt to gaining an annulment. In May 1527, Charles V and his troops invaded Rome, this caused Pope Clement VII being captured. With Clement being imprisoned and the Holy Roman Empire being invaded, it altered the diplomatic situation. This is because, the Pope had all the major influences on all catholic nations, and with him being imprisoned, and Charles being charge, it meant that he held the power over many European countries. This was a huge problem for Henry, as he needed the Pope to grant his annulment, but him being away, and Charles in charge, meant that it was impossible for him to gain anything.

Identify one or two points of similarity or difference regarding the Jewish and Christian conceptions of human nature. (I didn't discuss this the other day but you can look in your notes to try to answer the question). A2. Christian conception of human nature relies on that the man inherited the “original sin” from Adam, so mankind is in need of forgiveness of sin. Christians choose their actions by knowing right from wrong, humans are in need of salvation.
Genesis refers to God as God, He, the Lord. The Leiden Hymns refer to the “sun god” as Horus, Amun, and Amun-Re. while both stories explain creation, Genesis is a lot different from the Leiden Hymns because it is more detailed and it also explains sin and the fall from grace. Genesis is the first book in the Old Testament of the Holy Bible. It describes the world’s creation and the origin of man.
