Christ does not give us love, joy, peace, patience, and so forth. Christ is the gift and the giver! Nee also mentions that many Christians come to the “ Christ of the Scriptures for salvation and then they are bombarded with "things!"

“Explain what Fletcher understands by ‘Christian love’ and its role in the moral decision-making process of situation ethics” Situational ethics is an ethical theory that was created by an Anglican priest named Joseph Fletcher. This ethical system believed that all humans should make moral decisions based on what is the most loving thing to do. Fletcher didn’t mean any random type of love, he meant the love that is unconditional that divine authorities such as Jesus have displayed. Love that isn’t romantic or sexual but can be from one stranger to another as well as love between two people who know eachother. Situation ethics does have rules and principles to abide by.
The author uses different adjectives to describe to the reader the appearance and personality of Curley’s wife. The fact that Steinbeck refers to her as “A girl” may show her immature desire for attention, and the fact that she wore mainly red symbolizes blood and danger which also hints to the reader that she is a mesmerizing but dangerous woman. Curley’s wife was “heavily made up” which suited the description that Candy gave to George – a tart. However, this may symbolize that she is wearing a mask and is not showing her true persona, and we find that later on in the novel she truly reveals herself to Lennie. This enforces the idea that unlike Lennie, she is a complex character in the novel.

The Church taught that God was not merciful. When time passed he started believing and trusting in God more until he started loving him. When he knew about the things that the Catholic Church was doing, asking the people what to do in order to get to salvation, he started an alliance with other protestant reformers and protested against Catholic Church. People were paying the Church for indulgences papers saying they or their families were forgiven for their sins. Catholics believe that only good works from people was the only way to get to salvation, but Luther was trying to make people know that you do not need to pay to be saved you just got to follow God’s rules, be good, and follow Jesus´ footsteps.
He had answered many of my questions about my faith and what I believe is real. This does not mean that this book has changed my values and views of my religion, however has made me a more devote person to my religion. I agree with Paine as well that we are always contradicting ourselves. With my church group, we always say that we fit the Bible stories to fit and suit our need, but always show our true devotion. These stories are to be taken with a grain of salt and not to be take as seriously as they are being taken.
Nobody could know regardless of whether he is predestinated for salvation, yet when one complies with God's will and succeeds throughout his life he most likely is. Thus, the Puritans attempted to comply with each and every word from the book of scriptures. That created strict laws and good codes in their group. Likewise, they had an in number hard working attitude. They were exceptionally restrained, buckled down and didn't spend their cash for their own
We are also supposed to keep our bodies blameless. “Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ” (1 Thess. 5:23).

The Holy Bible in the same manner can be misinterpreted in many ways as well. The deceptive views of the Holy Bible can lead to oppression so that women may think and use religion as being just a source.
