The author is able to create this tone of joy through repetition, punctuation, and vocabulary. Repetition of the phrase “Hark! The herald angels sing” brings about a tune of joy because when Jesus is born it’s such a glorious day that from up and across the
This book is an inspirational book that can show you how to change your way of life through a body and mind perspective. Although it contains a lot of insight and that I thoroughly enjoyed that Bible verses were used, there are some drawbacks that discouraged me while reading the book. In the poem, In the Morning Fog, there was a line that stated, “I am the little I AM!” that I was confused on what it meant and was eager to know what it meant. I, personally, enjoyed the book, Time To Move, and would recommend it to anyone who needs to be inspired with whatever they need to be enthused
The Great Literary Works of Solomon Psalms and Proverbs are books in the Old Testament that provide wisdom and insight to God’s will and teachings through prayers, sayings, phrases, poems, or song. This is in contrast to the stories in the other books of the Old Testament that relay the will and teachings of God through the stories of the Hebrew people. Both books have several authors however Solomon is believed to be the primary author of Proverbs and David the primary author of Psalms. The Book of Psalms is a collection of poems and songs that are intended to praise and worship God. The Book of Proverbs is the word of God that instructs people how to apply divine wisdom to daily life and to provide moral instruction.
I used the bible passage from the bible (Job 17:9) to relate to Winton’s occasional references to religion. In the short story ‘Holding’, the protagonist is sceptical of religion but understands that it helps other people in their lives, and in ‘More’, Jerra discovers that his dad became religious to help himself through any tough times. My character is quite annoyed by religion but he still draws strength from the passage I stated earlier despite his scepticism. Will experiences difficulties similar to that of Winton’s characters. His life is controlled by traumatic events from his past.
The mood that the reader feels is an empathetic, yet understanding of what he feels needs to be accomplished. Especially how he made unique, yet valid, references to religion to strengthen his ideas was beneficial to the idea of equal treatment that he is, in general, trying to convey. Aside from Dr. King’s explanation of civil rights and why it should be distributed among everyone, comes a different type of text from Abel Meeropol. She wrote the poem, Strange Fruit in the 1930s and it is one of the most interesting displays of metaphorical language to discuss a serious issue in society. The three stanza poem uses vocabulary that one would normally associate with nature to inform the readers and listeners of the poem about the harshness and reality of lynching in the southern states of America during the
Blake makes a reference to heaven, “And watered heaven with their tears,” that certainly suggests a religious tone to the poem. (Blake n.d.) Blake also
“And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.”Acts 2:4. The supernatural gifts of the Holy Spirit are truly marvelous and sometimes a bit intimidating especially the gift of tongues. Tongues is the most unexplainable of the gifts and honestly the strangest when you begin to speak in tongues it is a sign of submission and humility to God. You are a baby in Christ and you are learning to speak in His Spiritual language by stepping out in faith. Finding an exact explanation for what speaking in tongues is described as is difficult but not impossible.
The Bible has such a source of authority, God. This is what is commonly known as divine inspiration. Divine inspiration is “the guidance or influence of the Holy Spirit on the human writers of Scripture so that God controlled them in such a way that what they wrote was exactly what God wanted them to write without error.” (Towns 2008) Support for this inspiration is revealed in scripture like II Timothy 3:16 “All scripture is God breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness.” The term “God breathed” translates to mean “divinely breathed”. Elmer Towns notes “since breath is life, when God put His Spirit into the words of Scripture, He was also putting His life in Scripture.” (Towns 2008) God placed his endorsement of authority on the Holy Scriptures with his own breath and at the same time gave divine life to the Bible. Hebrews 4:12 “For the word of God is alive and active…” The Bible is authoritative due to divine inspiration, but what good would this authority be if what was written in the Bible was unreliable?
"But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you. And you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea, and Samaria and to the ends of the earth." (Acts 1:8) As a church we recognize that we serve the Triune God, and we stress the importance of developing our relationship with God and with Jesus, yet it seems to me that there is a lack of talk about our relationship with the Spirit. What is the Holy Spirit? I believe many of us regard the Spirit as something of an essence or wind-like force that surrounds us and leads us to be like God.
