The Lamb and The Tyger address the same subject: the conception of God. Consider the two different representations of God as presented in each poem, how do the views of God differ? Support your argument with evidence from the poems. Oscar Alexander-Jones In ‘The Lamb’, God represents God in the form of the Lamb, which is typically used to represent Jesus. The poem itself is written in simple, singsong verse, perhaps intending to reflect the simple mind of the child.
The record of the Lord’s Prayer has been recorded by Matthew and Luke in their account of Jesus Christ. This model of prayer has been part of Christian liturgy and tradition from the very beginning of Christendom. This model of prayer by Jesus Christ has been seen of underline the very theological mission and life of Jesus. Our Father who art in heaven The opening of the prayer, “Our Father who art in heaven” reflects Jesus’ own style of addressing God and which therefore also indicates Jesus’ intention that his disciples should share in his own sense of intimate sonship to God as Father. Jesus in the account of the four Gospels is seen to teach that God is our Father and seeks that kind of relationship with us.
The Lamb is sung by an all male choir who give the song depth and significance by the sound of their voices coming together, this alongside the fact that it is unaccompanied gives the song a spooky church-like feel and helps it sound like a sacred choral piece of music. The poem it is based on is addressed to a lamb however as you continue reading the words you soon realise Blake has purposely put a play on words in the second verse (Bar 15) the words ‘he became a little child’ refers to Jesus Christ, symbolising innocence within mankind. The Lamb is often performed at Christmas as it is one of Tavener’s best known pieces. Steve Reich is an American Composer who was born in 1936 and was a successful minimalist musician. Minimalism consists of making music using repetitions of simple material and evolving them as the piece goes on, other musicians that adopted a similar style includes John Adams and Philip Glass.
Religion is seen as mans attempt to reach God. Christianity teaches that the Bible is God’s way of trying to reach mankind. John 17:3 says that God wants to have a personal intimate relationship with man through His Son, Jesus Christ. What is right and wrong and how should I live? Right and wrong is based upon God’s holy standard, not
They believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and that God sent His only Son (Jesus) to earth to save humankind from the penalty of their sins. One of the most important concepts in Christianity is that Jesus gave His life on the cross which was called the crucifixion, and then He was buried, and on the third day He rose from the dead which is called the resurrection. This is summarized in 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 which is the foundation of Christian belief. Exclusive among all the faiths, Christianity is more about having a relationship with God than religions practices. The goal of a Christian is to develop a close relationship with God through (Word of God) the ministry of Jesus Christ and by the aid of the Holy Spirit.
First topic: John 1:1-18 Pre-mortal life and the human spark of divinity. The unknown writer of the book of John was writing in context of the culture he lived in. John is very different from the Gospels of Mathew, Mark, and Luke in story emphasis. According to An Introduction To The New Testament, (Boring) the first passage of John, Chapter 1:1-18 was a hymn of the Johannine community of believers of the time. The plot in this story is simple, the Word, attributed as Jesus Christ, helps God to create our world, he then obtains mortal life and while containing that essential spark of divinity, he generously passes on the ability for us to receive our own divine spark, thus making us children of God as well.

Good Morning, my name is Selena Band. Today I was asked to speak on one of the parables. The parable I chose is the one that Jesus told of the lost sheep. I’m going to start by reading from Luke chapter 15. (Read Luke 15: 4-7) In these verses Jesus teaches us of a shepherd that leaves his flock of ninety-nine sheep to search for his one lost lamb; and when the shepherd finds his lamb, he takes it back to his flock and rejoices.
In detail we will discuss the relationship between inspiration and inerrancy. And then, before concluding this paper we will discuss how the answers to these questions provide structure to how we as Christians should live our lives. To a Christian who has accepted God as their personal Lord and Savior the Bible has authority. The same should not be said for someone who hasn’t made that confession. As a Christian we have accepted that the Bible contains the true Word of God written by apostles who received divine inspiration to guide the recorded works.
Lewis himself claims that he never intended to write a Christian message for children to more coherently understand the Gospel; although, he admits that once Aslan emerged into Narnia, he not only ‘pulled’ the story together, but he also ‘pulled’ the other six stories together simultaneously. With the figure of Aslan, Lewis attempts to implicitly and explicitly explore Christian truths; but how successful was he in his attempt? This essay will address how the nature, works and qualities of Aslan relate to Christ and will evaluate the success of Lewis in his attempt. “Aslan a man?” declares Mr Beaver “Certainly not. I tell you he is the king of the wood and son of the great Emperor-Beyond-the-Sea.
