Essay When celebrating church it all revolves around the same thing, and it is God. No matter if you’re Catholic, Christian, Jewish, or Lutheran we all come together as a community and worship God. I recently have gone to a Servite Mass and a Christian church and they both have lots of similarities, but also many differences. I feel at the Christian service I relate to it more and feel like I am accepting Christ. But at the Catholic mass I feel like I am doing the same routine over and over again which draws me getting bored of mass. Christian churches are more of a modern style and do things different each time. One thing that is different from catholic worship is that, there’s a band and it’s more of a Christian rock feel to it. With Catholic mass it’s boring and keeps me not focusing on the real picture, But with Christian Rock band I feel more modern and I can relate to it more and I really enjoy it and get the real picture through. At Catholic mass it’s just a piano and just slow for me. I just enjoy the band more and when people enjoy something the interest level kicks up. This is perfect for church to keep young men interested.
Also with Christian church the Eucharist is way different than how Catholics celebrate it. In the Catholic Church to take the bread and wine people must have had reconciliation. For Catholics the Eucharist is very special which it is considered a sacrament. For Christians it not of a big of deal as it is for Catholics. Any people who attend that service can have the bread and wine. I think for Catholics it means more because you’re accepting Christ into your body, but either one is still special.
At both services, both the priest and the pastor talk about the bible reading they read during the service. For

Christian Theology Essay

In the beginning of time God created the earth and the animals, but not too much after he decided that his creation was missing something. So he created Adam and Eve. We all know how the story goes, God says not to eat from the forbidden tree, they do it anyway, and God banishes them from the Garden. Most people blame the Devil for this act of disobedience, but the true person at fault is God. In the video we watched “Faith and Doubt at Ground Zero” all the people were asking “If God is out there…

Theology Prayer Essay

John Doe April 16 2013 Encountering of Prayer When I think of prayer, I have this image of trying to search within God’s heart. Lately, this search has increasingly taken on a feeling of stagnation and emptiness. It is as if I am right at the chamber of his heart and I am knocking on the front door; however, there is no answer. It’s frightening. When you think of prayer you hope for guidance, you pray that God will give you instructions. Within this class however, I have matured in my understanding…

Theology: Christianity As a Religion Essay

TJ 913-789-4361 Hendrick Chev on Shawnee Mission Parkway. Chris Chelds actually became a human, flesh and blood, while still being God. Other religious founders could have had their message told by someone else, but without Jesus, the God-Man, and the salvation through His atoning death and resurrection, there is no Christianity (1 Corinthians 15:14, 17). Second, humanity is not merely beings who do wrong occasionally, as in other religions, but are spiritually dead. They cannot fix themselves…

REFLECTIONS FROM ‘WHO NEEDS THEOLOGY?’ BY STANLEY J. GRENZ AND ROGER E. OLSON POSTED BY MINDOJ In the last two years, I have asked God questions that I would not have dared to ask him in all my ten previous years in theological training and pastoral work.

And so the last two years have shaken the core…

Essay on Theology: God and Covenant Relationship

Through the Book of Amos, the prophetic voice is shown to reflect on the rapid divine. Israel was in a time of darkness and the people needed to be called back to the high moral and religious demands of Yahweh’s revelation. The society’s internal health was in rapid divine through the cheating in businesses, bribery of judges, sexual immorality and mistreatment of the poor and powerless.
