Protestant Reformation Sixteenth Century
1,195 wordsMost Christians have not thought seriously about how Biblical writings were preserved. They can easily secure copies of the Bible and suppose that it has always been so. Like all other blessings, however, this one should not be taken for granted. Men have died so that the Bible might be preserved, translated, and published (Baugh and Cable 1993). Even in our day, in certain countries of the world, the Scriptures are scarce. The history of the preservation of the Bible can be divided into two per...

Christ Jesus Jewish Law
1,026 wordsGalatians was probably written between 49 - 56 A. D. , by Paul, as it is shown in the very first verse. Paul's letter to the Galatians is a vigorous attack against the gospel of works and a defense of the gospel of faith.

Paul, being the one that defended the Gentile's right to be Christ...

Macbeth His Fear And Conscience
796 words... the Proser points out: "With this crime conscience is all but repressed completely. No 'horrid image' raises its head.

Compton Carbon Dating
5,413 wordsIntroduction: Millions of words have been written about the remarkable cloth preserved at Turin. More recently, most of these writings dealt with one basic question, was it the actual winding sheet of the crucified Christ, bearing an imprint of His body? Or was the whole thing a gigantic hoax? A fantastic forgery of the Middle Ages? Erudite men have lined up on both sides of that compelling query. Some of the facts about the Holy Shroud have something to do with the presence of human blood and o...
