Pope Urban II’s call for a crusade:Four Accounts -This piece of work has four different accounts of one of the first sermons that Pope Urban gave about the crusade. The sermon was a response to Constantinople plea for help against the Turks. The sermon had called for Christians all around Europe to help save their Christian brothers and sisters who are being greatly mistreated and to take back the Holy land from the Muslims who were currently occupying it. These four accounts were written by churchmen and all of the accounts were written after the conclusion of the first crusade. The First Crusade and the idea of crusading by Jonathan Riley-Smith- I find this book so far to be a good read and chapter 1:Pope Urbans Message to very useful in helping me write my paper.
He mentions how he persecuted God’s church. He tells the Galatians that he was deeply committed to the Jewish faith, and zealous of their traditions. But God, who controls physical birth as well as spiritual birth, called Paul to a spiritual awakening. God provided Paul with the opportunity to accept grace, and then called him to preach and teach among the non-Jewish population. Paul says that he did not wait for human confirmation of this calling.
Running head: JESUS: A GALILEAN TRILOGY Jesus: A Galilean trilogy Jack Robertshaw Grand Canyon University BIB123 New Testament History 09/13/2009 Jesus: A Galilean trilogy Jesus begins his ministry in earnest when he chooses his inner circle of twelve disciples. For eighteen months Jesus would travel the land of Galilee with his new ministry. He would introduce teachings designed to reveal what it would be like to have the Kingdom of God present on earth. He would minister to nearly every aspect of human need. He fed the hungry, raised the dead, calmed the seas, cast out demons and most importantly he taught with a new authority, his own 1.
While Mark’s Gospel portrays Jesus as the son of man whom God chose to be the one to save the people by suffering and dying, John’s Gospel portrays Jesus Christ in a different manner; a way in which Jesus Christ has existed before life on earth, came down from heaven to reveal God and His kingdom, and save us human beings from sin. The similarities between the Gospels of Mark and John are seen in the misunderstandings between Jesus and those closest to him, such as his family and disciples. Jesus’ main purpose in life is to teach these people about God and His kingdom, to explain to them that he is here to save them from their sins by dying and resurrecting. However, the people simply do not understand him and instead ask questions of his existence, his parables, and end up hardening their hearts. In Mark 9:30-32, Jesus tries to explain to his disciples that “The Son of Man is to be handed over to men and they will kill him, and three days after his death he will rise.” He tells them that the Son of Man will be the one to suffer and die for the people’s own lives.

In addition to their commercial importance, canals had nationalistic and military significance. The French saw an isthmian canal as a magnificent private enterprise reflecting the glory of France. Americans like Theodore Roosevelt viewed an American-controlled canal as critical to U.S. domination of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. In 1869, after 10 years of work by the
The life of Christ in Mark’s Gospel evidently accounts the humble and just acts of Jesus Christ on earth. Jesus was seen as an activist, a teacher and a healer. He touched the lives of many people in sickness, taught us the ways of faith and challenged the position of other people of power at the time. The ministries of Jesus teach us relevant lessons not only for the people that were living the New Testament but also for catholics to reflect on today. Mark’s Gospel has a vast number of examples portraying Jesus as a leader of new teachings.
I believe that the Hebrew Scriptures are relevant to us today, as we can relate to some of the stories showing us how we can be better people, and how we can live our lives. Our Bible is full of stories to learn from, such as, myths, legends, teachings and historical articles. Parts of the story of Abraham show us about being faithful and loyal to God. God has a lot of trust in Abraham as Abraham did whatever God intrusted him to do, such as, sacrifice his own son to show he was faithful to God. When Abraham was about to sacrifice his son of prophet, God told Abraham to stop and use a sheep instead.
Hopewell from my perspective put more emphasis on reading God’s word, praying, and fellowshipping with the members and visitors. Whereas at Moody, Reverend Hezekiah Stewart, Jr. Pastor; believes in speaking in tongue, healings, and laying hands on a person and anointing of oil. I was invited by my brother to attend Hopewell Church in Old Hickory, Tennessee. He assured me that there were some differences in Hopewell Worship style than Moody’s, but Hopewell would not deviate much from the normal Moody worship. In identifying the culture experience of Hopewell Baptist church I will discuss the experience, my preconceived notion about the experience, how my reactions were affected by group influence, and describe the reactions of individuals as well as the effect these reactions had on my behavior and self.
