Biblical prophet’s basic job was to spread the word of God and to do whatever e asked of them. Their messages were supposed to be said to everyone, not excluding anyone particular race or group. They gave all these people advice and punished the sinners for their wrong doings. They warned people of their wrong [...]

Everyone has their own interpretations of the bible, and of the many biblical concepts. As we read certain books within the bible, many people relate to the messages differently. What one term means to one person may mean another thing to another person. This is a concept that could be considered within the Christian community [...]

In order to improve the world, I thought about many different situations that we could consider. Many concepts came into thought, and I knew that there was nothing in my power to change these situations. I thought about many broad aspects, and situations that the president would not be able to change, so I did [...]

When I come to Louisiana, New Orleans, Xavier University, and parts all over; I’ve come to realize the diversity among the people in every community.

When I first started my project, I was not happy with the amount of participation that was provided within the community. I did not fill as if the community was participating in many of the events that allowed us to improve the city. I do not know if it was due to the lack of [...]

I feel that i have learned very much in the class this year. it has helped me grasp quite a few concepts within the word of God. It also help me to be able to critically think and help me go back in time and look throught the eys of the people that lived thousands [...]

The question that I get from at least one teacher every year has come up, “What grade do you think you deserve for this class?” Well the grade I think everyone wants is an A+, but to be truthful, I don’ t think I necessarily earned this. Why? Well, lets see, I worked very hard [...]

according to deuterenomic history a great king was not in the measure of his stature it was a man who could uphold and obey the laws of God. a a man could not do such ten he should not be able to be king. David was a good king but he was far from perfect [...]

most christians do believe that the world will end within their lifetimes. they elieve so because the signs in the bible seem to prove themselves over and over again through out history.

1) Give students a level of expertise in the discipline of biblical studies.
To be completely honest, I had no prior knowledge on what was actually inside the Bible. I knew that it was the word of the lord and stories on how things came to be, but I am a Catholic that never read [...]

Wow.. My last blog and reflections. Now that I look back on it I don’t regret taking this class. If our core curriculum did not require us to take this theology class I would not have learned all these new interesting things that I know now. I usually run away from things when I find [...]

Many people might have different opinions on why Christians believed that our world was coming to an end. In my perspective I think it is because of the way our world has turned out today. Of all the crimes that are happening in today’s world it would seem like the world is coming to an [...]
