Showing titles in Christology

The Blessed Mother has appeared under many titles and under many different names. Each of Mary’s names and titles reflect a different aspect of her role in the life of the Church and in the lives of her children. Numerous shrines throughout North America have been built to facilitate devotion to Mary under her many titles and numerous graces, and author Julie Cragon has visited many of them with her family.

The mercy seat, as depicted in the Scriptures, holds a central place in the worship of the Israelites and remains a profound symbol for understanding the relationship between God and humanity. In the construction of the Tabernacle, the mercy seat was placed atop the Ark of the Covenant, a golden cover over the sacred chest containing the tablets of the Law, Aaron’s rod, and a pot of manna. This position signifies its importance, both as a physical object in the worship of Israel and as a spiritual symbol pointing to the divine nature of God’s interaction with His people.

The concept of wisdom has long fascinated human beings. Across different cultures, people have sought to define and apply wisdom in their quest for understanding and meaning. In ancient Greece, wisdom was prized above all other virtues, and philosophers such as Plato, Socrates, and Aristotle made significant contributions to how wisdom was perceived and pursued. This intellectual heritage greatly influenced the mindset of the world, including the culture that surrounded the early church, as seen in the context of 1 Corinthians. However, there is a striking contrast presented in the writings...

John's emphasis on the spirit of Antichrist reflects the spiritual and doctrinal battles that the early church was facing. The Christian community was surrounded by various teachings and philosophies, some of which directly contradicted the apostolic message. These false teachings often came from within the community, from individuals who claimed to be believers but whose teachings deviated from the truth. John sees these influences not just as misunderstandings or errors but as the manifestation of a deeper, more sinister force—the spirit of Antichrist.

No one can foretell of a specific event that will occur on an exact date, hundreds of years into the future! However, scientific dating the precise day that Roman armies burned down Herod's Temple in AD 70 reveals that time-based passages accomplished this impossible feat. The oldest known copy of Daniel comes from the Dead Sea Scrolls, which scholars date to 125 BC. The most liberal view thinks that someone wrote Daniel by 165 BC. Another method shows Daniel wrote around 530 BC in Babylon. If true, these unique words foretold of the destruction 600 years into the future.

Their involvement is crucial in the transmission of Revelation's prophetic messages, as they act as intermediaries between the divine and the earthly realms. The presence of angels in Revelation underscores the pervasive influence of the celestial in the affairs of humanity, reminding readers of the ongoing spiritual warfare that transcends the physical ...

A short booklet that asks this most important question.

Waarom is Jezus gekruisigd? Waarom moest Hij sterven? Wat heeft dat met mij te maken? Wie heeft Hem eigenlijk de dood ingestuurd? Het antwoord op die laatste vraag is: dat deed God. Een verbijsterende gedachte, want Jezus is immers Gods Zoon. Toch kun je uit de Bijbel geen andere conclusie trekken. Als de Bijbel over het sterven van Jezus spreekt, draait het echter niet om die vraag. Dan gaat het om de bedoeling van Zijn dood. Welk doel stond God voor ogen?

The study of Jesus is remarkably uncomplicated. Any thorough study of the Bible will eventually lead right back down to Jesus - who he is and what he did. We've been conned for centuries into thinking that Jesus, God, religion, spirituality, et al, are complex and convoluted concepts.

Jesus, as a man walked among men and set an example for all men to follow. What He taught, men were to believe. The way He acted, men were to act. The humble life Jesus lived was the humble life His children in His family were to live. Jesus was a man, and a perfect man. Why did Jesus have to be fully man when he was fully God?

At the heart of the Christian understanding of grace is the life and work of Jesus Christ. The incarnation, crucifixion, and resurrection of Jesus are the ultimate manifestations of God's grace. Jesus’ sacrificial death on the cross paid the penalty for sin, making it possible for humanity to be reconciled with God. This act of grace is described as a substitutionary atonement, where Jesus took upon Himself the punishment that was due to sinners, thereby satisfying the demands of divine justice and demonstrating the depths of God's love. The resurrection of Jesus is also a testament to ...
