Daniel The Book Of Daniel
2,228 wordsDaniel The book of Daniel has always been a kind of guide and an example for me to use throughout my whole life.

Fundamental Project Of Nietzsche As A Will
1,598 wordsTwo Brands of Nihilism As philosopher and poet Nietzsche's work is not easily conformable to the traditional schools of thought within philosophy. However, an unmistakable concern with the role of religion and values penetrates much of his work.

Despite his early tutelage under the influence of Schopenhauer's philosophy, Nietzsche later...

Gracious Soul Desire Communion With God
4,802 wordsIf the book of Psalms be, as some have styled it, a mirror or looking-glass of pious and devout affections, this psalm in particular deserves, as much as any one psalm, to be so entitled, and is as proper as any to kindle and excite such in us: gracious desires are here strong and fervent; gracious hopes and fears, joys and sorrows, are here struggling, but the pleasing passion comes off a conqueror. Or we may take it for a conflict between sense and faith, sense objecting and faith answering. I...

Consuming Fire Of God's Love
1,824 wordsPurgatory and the Bible Some Christians reject the Church's affirmation of purgatory because the word is not explicitly mentioned in the Bible.

Jesus commands us to listen to the Ch...
