inaugural address was less presidential and more theological. The address did not reflect the typical format of a presidential speech, but rather the structure of the jeremiad. The jeremiad is a form of sermon that became popular among the Puritans in New England in the latter half of the seventeenth century. The structure of Lincoln’s address echoed the jeremiads delivered by prominent Puritan ministers, such as Samuel Willard and Cotton Mather. Lincoln’s speech incorporated the themes of…

living systems”. God is the owner of everything. Psalm 50:10-11 states that “For every beast of the forest is Mine, And the cattle on a thousand hills. I know all the birds of the mountains, and I know the wild beasts of the field are Mine (New King James Version). God has also given us dominion over the animals, so when animals are being used for research we are following God’s command to use the animals for our betterment. When we look at animal research as a way to better our fellow…

literature (Greene). Like Harris mentions in the “James Opera Encyclopedia,” recitative is a speech like style that enhances the sound of the voice. This is important for this specific text from the book of Luke, chapter two, verses eight through fourteen. This narrative illustrates the angel describing the message to the shepherds which is an exciting moment for them to witness. The shepherds were not people that would not normally hear this news which is why it sticks out even more that the…

Paraphilic disorders are described as “sexual deviation syndromes characterized by aberrant sexual fantasies, urges, and /or behaviors” (Saleh & Berlin, 2003). There is a difference from those who have unusual sexual fantasies and/or desires while engaging in healthy sexual activities with a partner and those who are diagnosed with paraphilic disorder. Those who act upon their fantasies in a way that causes harm to themselves and others are diagnosed with paraphilic disorders. For example,…

these things is an abomination to the Lord your God” (Deuteronomy 22:5, The New King James Version). Her parents are too afraid of God to accept their own child you may say, but wait – what fundamentalists often forget (or choose to omit) is the quote “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus” (Galatians 3:28, The New King James Version).

are 39 books in the Old Testament and 27 books in the New Testament. While reading these chapters, there were many differences that stood out to me. The Old Covenant stood as The Laws and was the foundation of the New Covenant and the events that would happen. In the Old Covenant God required The Israelites to act a certain way in order for Him to keep his agreement to them. The New Covenant was God's Graces and your faith in Him.The Old and New Covenants both contain agreements made with God.…

I have never heard of animism before, but upon reading your explanation I can see how the movie “Avatar” fits into its’ definition. Looking at this movie from a Biblical perspective evokes much you can find wrong with the animism view. This movie reminds me of what Charry describes in “Inquiring after God through Art” when she states, “Art for art’s sake overwhelmed the older notion that art appropriately leads people to God and righteousness.
