The first example is “save your people” and “be their shepherd” both show the want for His salvation.
The purpose of the voyage to New England was to start a new church together following Calvin’s model without having the risk of being persecuted. Throughout Bradford’s writings, he referenced how God is looking out for them and making sure that they are safe because they are doing what God wants them to do and doing what pleases him. After being attacked by Indians Bradford gave credit to God for their safety. “Thus it pleased God to vanquish their enemies, and not give them deliverance; and by His special providence so to dispose tat not any one of them were either hurt, or hit.” After the people of Plymouth become successful they start to disperse which made it difficult for them to bring their family into Plymouth for church services. Members of the church began to form their own churches to make it possible for them to attend regularly.
Through the divinity and humanity of the Christ, Christians and believers share the stories through word of mouth. The Son of God is also evident from the sacred texts of the Gospel testimonies which include the wonders and recoveries on people achieved by Jesus, and from the witness to his death, resurrection and ascension into heaven by his followers and other eyewitnesses.

So therefore, David was thankful that God was merciful to him. Psalm 86:5 reminds the readers of the bible that hesed means that God grants mercy to people in spite of their wrongs and shortcomings. Second, this word study will deal with the word hesed as the characteristics of God. In Jonah 4:2, the word hesed is translated as merciful, which is a characteristic of God.

The biblical worldview acknowledges that God created man in His own image. Therefore, man should also value human relationships that are similar to their own valuation of God. This realization is vital to the biblical worldview. Otherwise, self-serving human relationships stand in our way of becoming one with Jesus Christ and go against the Word of

It teaches us to be thankful for all the favors we receive; to love each other, and to be united. We never quarrel about religion.” “Brother, the Great Spirit has made us all, but He had made a great difference between his white and red children.
Despite Brigham Young’s failures I believe he responded better than Joseph Smith. This is because Young came to a solution for his problems while Smith ran away from them. Joseph Smiths main concern was to increase the population of the Mormon society, which was successful as he was a great preacher.

But the Savior taught that true freedom comes only from following Him: “If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free” (John 8:31–32).
