Second Speech Of Moses Speech

Here then is the basis for Paul’s attack on idolatry which follows: “Therefore since we are God’s offspring”; thus, humans are the true image of God. So, no image made, “by human design or skill.” could possibly be anything other than a falsification of the image of God (17:29). Paul ends his sermon by announcing that the time of ignorance is over and calling for eschatological repentance (17:30-31). Now Paul’s purpose is clear. He is not seeking to add a new god to the Athenian Pantheon; he is rather seeking the Athenians’ repentance.

27:46; Mk. 15:34). This clearly foretells how the people will abandon him and put him to test. Messianic Psalms also describe the resurrection of Christ.

In the bible, the book of Isaiah, chapter 41, verse 10 says, “Don’t be afraid, for I am with you…” Owen resembles Christ when he too says to John not to be afraid. Owen is there for John just as he always has been, resembling Christ in the book of Matthew, chapter 28, verse 20, “I am with you always.” Owen is Christ-like in many ways. Everyone wants to touch him like in the Gospel of Luke the crowd presses towards Jesus, wanting to touch him because of his healing abilities. Christ describes himself as the light of the world and Owen is constantly associated with light. His skin reflects and absorbs light, “as with a pearl, so that he appeared translucent at times.”

An anonymous person once said that “we aren’t called to shine our own lights; we are called to reflect His.” A born again Christian, once fully understanding the gospel and putting his or hers trust in Jesus, will desire to want to grow and obey God in order to honor and glorify Him, and since the only one who kept God’s law perfectly was Jesus, then one will want manifest and imitate Christ in everything he or she does. Not only does reflecting Christ’s image glorify God, it stands out to others as well. All true believers experience radical change because of the Spirit, and that change shines like a bright light towards other people leading them to ask, wonder, and desire that change and growth in their own lives as

In Philippians 2:9-11 states that his name was given to him by God who also hath highly exalted him, and that in his name that every knee should bow of things in heaven. It also states that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is lord. Jesus knew that this was his purpose, furthermore if his father said then it must be done.

He It is a story about God’s love and commitment to humankind; His response to man’s Disobedience; the power of God’s promise; and the High cost of Eternity (Jesus the Christ), as revealed in the Stories of Adam and Eve and throughout the New Testament. During my speech, I will show the Love of God, Why man’s obedience to God is necessary because of the fall , and because of His promise we should have an understanding of God thoughts towards us and His desire that we would spend Eternity with God. The Bible is the greatest story ever told, but it is still much more. It is a love story. It is the recorded history of God’s love and commitment to His people.

Through his creations of human life and the universe and throughout history God has proved his own existence. God has also revealed to man his only son. John 3:16 states, “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:16). God sent his only son to do his will. Jesus did so and came forth with more sons of God.

It does not describe, but enacts what it says” (Janzen 230). This all-mighty power that God possessed compelled the Israelites to hold God and his word to the highest esteem. This can be exemplified in the statement, “The command to increase and multiply was taken very seriously in rabbinic Judaism. The rabbis even specified the number of children required to fulfill the commandment…”(Perdue 127). People respected God because they saw him as being supreme.

‘Oh God, Master of the Universe, give me the strength never to do what Rabbi Eliahu’s son has done’ ” (91). Eliezer still believes in God, but his whole perception of reality has changed. He recognizes that this is not the same God he used to worship. However, even in his darkest moments, his faith in God could not escape him. Through his haunting tale, Elie Wiesel unveils his tumultuous relationship with God.
