The Unique revelatation of Jesus Christ (Topic)

Topic: Questions related to the authority of God’s Word are prevalent in our society. If the Bible is God’s Word, then we should read it with care and apply its precepts to our lives. If it is simply a book devised by man, then we are not accountable for appropriating the precepts that it teaches. After reading the article “Arguments that the Bible is the Word of God” by Elmer Towns and watching the Module/Week 2 presentation, respond to the following prompt: Of the ten arguments that the Bible is the Word of God presented by Dr. Towns, which argument do you find the most convincing? Explain why you think that it is a strong argument. Include at least 2 quotes from the article to support your points.

Christianity is unique among world religions, and Jesus Christ’s true uniqueness is the centerpiece of christianity. The truth about Christ is based primarily on the New Testament documents which have been shown elsewhere to be authentic. Jesus Christ was unique in that he alone, of all who ever lived, was both God and man. In the Old Testament it’s predicted that Christ would die for our sins. Christ was not only supernaturally anticipated; He was also miraculously conceived. Paul exclaims, “of all human conceptions, Jesus’ stands as unique and miraculous. The Bible declares that Christ lived without sin and died as a substitute for the salvation of sinners. The Bible further declares that Jesus was buried and on the third day arose from the dead and ascended into Heaven where He makes intercession at the right hand of God the Father. Jesus Christ affirmed his deity:

(1) He applied to Himself the statement of Jehovah, “I am”. This affirmation is taken from the root word for “Jehovah,” “I am that I am”. The Jews did not misunderstand His claim. They knew that Jesus was claiming full deity, and they tried to stone Him.

(2) Jesus claimed to be identical with the Father.

(3) He asserted His omnipresence, omniscience, and omnipotence.

(4) Jesus received and approved of human worship.

(5) He forgave sins.

(6) He made Jehovahistic statements, “I am”-i.e., bread, light, the door, the way, the truth and the life, resurrection and life,- hence identifying Himself with God. Obviously, Jesus took Himself extremely seriously. Why? Because He understood who He was. There is no doubt that Jesus claimed to be God and told others that He was God.

ethics and relations

1.     Is self-interest at all necessary or desirable for practitioners within the criminal justice field?  Discuss several ways in which egoistic motivations might produce positive and negative effects in the following: (1) police officers, (2) district attorneys and prosecutors, (3) defense attorneys.

2.     To what extent are you motivated to obey the law because of the existence of punishments for violating the law?  To what extent does divine sanction or the expectation of divine reward or the expectation of divine reward motivate your behavior?

3. Psychopathic offenders are said to lack conscience.  Examples of psychopathic offenders are individuals who demonstrate a callous disregard for the feelings or welfare of others; who are impulsive, manipulative, and deceitful; and who have a larger-than-life sense about themselves.  One case of a (sexual) psychopathic offender was Jeffrey Dahmer.  Dahmer tortured, mutilated, and killed a number of you men before having sexual intercourse with them.  Eventually, he was caught by the police and sentenced to multiple life prison terms in Wisconsin.  He was murdered by a fellow prisoner.  Are persons like Dahmer capable of forming a conscience? If not, then how can we expect moral/ethical behavior from them?

Write an essay on the any artwork of pablo picasso

Pablo Picasso (Spanish, 1881-1973) Les Demoiselles d’Avignon

For the Observational Paper you must choose a work of art from the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. You can choose any work of art from MOMA’s collection for your project. The only requirement is that the artwork belong to a movement covered in Modules 1-7. Personally go to MOMA and view the work of art you have chosen for your project.

You will write a paper on one original work of art. It must be a minimum of 800 words. This is not a research paper. Your observations should be illuminated by the lectures, assignments and readings. It is important to choose something that you can discuss without doing further research (unless you would like to do outside research – you are welcome to do so – on the internet, books, etc). If you do use outside sources, they must be properly credited. Please use MLA format. If you are unsure about how to cite your sources.

A typical paper will spend the first two pages (or more) describing the art work in detail using terms learned in class (ie. sculpture in the round, complementary colors, iconography, etc.) and possibly providing some background about the artist (but not required).

In the rest of the paper you will compare/contrast the object to 1 artwork that we discussed in the lectures for Modules 1-7 – talking about how the works are similar and/or different. If you decide to do outside research you may want to talk about the work’s significance – how it may be a political statement or an shows an innovative style, for example.
