It shows Christians that they should help everyone who is in need, leaving no one behind. Jesus also has the Commandment of Love, ‘you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart ... You shall love your neighbour as yourself’. The Commandments of Love underpins the relationship between God and his believers. The Ten Commandments are a list of religious rules given to the people of Israel by God. It outlines the behaviours that are not allowed personally or not to be tolerated in others.
Prayer is simply communing with God. Jesus set the perfect example for prayer when he taught his disciples what we call the Lords’ prayer. There are times in our life when we don’t know what to pray for but the word of God said that the Holy Spirit will make intercession for us. The Apostle Paul and Silas prayed and the Holy Spirit caused the ground to shake during their imprisonment. During the book of Acts we see not only the early Church praying but also the disciples.
I try to teach them who God is, what God has done for us and that you must have a relationship with God daily, you can be all God wants you to be and you can do all God wants you to do. I am reminded about a verse in the bible that tells us that tomorrow is never promised to any of us. “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose” Romans 8:28 Life is a precious gift and can be taken away in a single second. This is even easier when you are driving a car. One little mishap can result in extreme injuries
The ways of the world have changed, and things are not quite so barbaric. People still continue to believe in the teachings of both Jesus and Muhammad. Muslims are encouraged to pray, Facing Ka’bah, five times a day. Mosques, or places of worship, are attended each week. During Ramadan, Muslims will fast and they are encouraged to try to make at least one pilgrimage to the Ka’bah, in Mecca, at least once in their life.
Even if this thought is not always shown outwardly it is the core of our thinking. Nash tells us it is important to know what you believe and stand for because as he stated, “Thy can be compared to a train running on tracks that have no switches. Once a person commits himself to a certain set of presuppositions, is direction and destination are determined” (Nash, 1992, 23). Our Christian life and relationships will all reflect our biblical Christian worldview in some way, every day. “Our faith has important things to say about the whole of human life” (Nash, 1992, 20).
There are 2 Christian beliefs, one is that when we pass as good Christians we will sit at the right hand of God for eternity in God’s kingdom and the other is to be condemned to hell.” God has offered the eternal life to all who will receive it “(Rom. 6:23 New International Version). All men are born sinners WORLDVIEW ASSIGNMENT 6 because of the Fall of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. Living daily through the teachings of the Bible and living as Jesus lived we will come to know God and Jesus Christ. Jesus said, “Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life” (Rev.
And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off--for all whom the Lord our God will call." 40With many other words he warned them; and he pleaded with them, "Save yourselves from this corrupt generation." 41Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day. 42They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.
I know it sounds odd but in times when I've needed guidance from Him, my prayers will contain the answers to themselves. Best of all, God talks to us constantly through His Word. On more than one occasion I have heard the suggestion, "pray with your Bible open." This means to take God's word with you into that quiet place that you pray in and when you think that you are done, look to His word for the answers. They are there, in printed form in every language with more translations that I have fingers and toes to count!
Christians and Muslims believe all humans are born sinless, but human weakness leads to sin. Both faiths teach that one must seek out forgiveness from God through prayer. Muslims have a requirement to pray five times a day and Christians have no set amount of prayers. Christianity and Islam both give us the knowledge to know right from wrong, both gives us the choice to live the right way. Muslims believe in the Day of Judgment, heaven and hell just as they do in Christianity.
It also puts limits on God’s power. According to the definition of a theistic God, God is omnipotent. If God is all powerful then he should be able to command whatever he wants but by saying that morality is independent of God would mean that God is subject to the rules of morality (Fisher, 359). All in all the main issues with the Autonomy Thesis are that it would only be reasonable if one was not considering the existence of a theistic
