What Does It Mean To Say In Joshua 10: 1-14
I submit to you my brothers and sisters that little is much when God is in it. He will take the foolish things of this world and confuse those that say they are wise. Think about it! God used the sound of wind blowing in trees to scare an army of trained soldiers! They were so panic-stricken and confused that David and his men were able to overtake and kill them all. God used the trees to distract them, and then He sent his angels in to fight for David before David even lifted a finger. All David had to do was obey the Lord instructions and God gave him and unconventional victory!
So many Bible stories come to mind when I think about unconventional victories. There is the story of the sun standing still in Joshua 10:1-14. The Lord promises

    Book of James

    I read the book of James and was astounded at how much I learned in such a short period of time. James encourages us to rejoice in Christ and to persevere. The main themes prevalent in this book which are wisdom, faith, trials, speech and wealth, all pertain to us today and we can use the information this book gives us to benefit from it. The book’s structure, purpose, characteristics, and history really helped teach me how to deal with the trails and temptations we as Christians face from day to day.…

    Neil Degrasse Tyson: A Philosophical Analysis

    As stated by Neil DeGrasse Tyson, an astrophysicist, “Once upon a time, people identified the god Neptune as the source of storms at sea. Today we call these storms hurricanes… The only people who still call hurricanes acts of God are the people who write insurance forms.” This quote by Neil DeGrasse Tyson not only applies to storms, but also applies to many things we previously did not understand. It basically displays the idea that just because we do not understand a concept, does not mean we will not be able to explain it in the future. Our society must get to the point of being comfortable with not knowing, instead of using myth to explain concepts we do not understand. In…

    Joshua A Parable For Today Analysis

    In the novel, Joshua: A Parable for Today, by Joseph F. Girzone, the author communicates that Joshua is Jesus risen again through the message he conveys and the miracles he performs. Joshua, a kind but mysterious stranger, moves to the town of Auburn and proceeds to stir up a huge debate simply by sharing his opinion about religion. Joshua does not try and preach against the Church, but he still manages to cause a giant conflict with the Church, despite his simplicity and kind nature. Even though his actions are very similar to those of Jesus, most people do not recognize him, and instead see him as someone attacking the Church. Joshua’s overall message to the people of Auburn is that the Church…

    What Does The Bible Symbolize Japheth

    “GOD SHALL ENLARGE JAPHETH” THE EUROPEAN JAPHETH AND THE CANAANITES God shall enlarge Japheth (Genesis 9:27). Noah went on and stated that God will enlarge Japheth, this was prophetic utterance which was pronounced on Japheth’s offspring’s, which have to do with the expansion of territories. The name Japheth itself means “enlargement”. The Bible never told us that Noah ever said bless the Lord God of Japheth, but he only said bless the Lord God of Shem, which means through Shem’s offspring the Messiah “Jesus” will descent. Jesus was an offspring of a Semitic Arab, and not from the offspring of European Japheth.…

    Humanity In C. S. Lewis Abolition Of Man

    In the grand scheme of humanity, much of its existence has been spent pondering just how much control a God could even have in a world that has given so much trouble and torment to the inhabitants of a tumultuous planet. Humans have been without a doubt the most dominant species to exist on the planet, establishing domain over every facet of life that has come across our paths. It is almost this very reasoning that has left humanity wondering about this higher being called God, chiefly because there must be something that is able to transcend even the capabilities of even the most intellectual creatures on this planet. As C.S Lewis says in his Abolition of Man, “At the moment, then of Man’s victory over Nature, we find the whole human race…

    Compare And Contrast David And Goliath

    The story of David and Goliath showed extraordinary faith in God in more ways than you can count. First of all, David was obsequious to God and trusted him to protect him. When Saul questions him he says, “God, who delivered me from the teeth of the lion and the claws of the bear, will deliver me from this Philistine” (1 Samuel 17:37). This excerpt shows that God protected David always. In other words, David exorbitantly trusted God in every aspect of this decision. Another example of his trusting nature was his willingness to fight Goliath. Even though every person told him to not do it, he persevered and decided to go into battle with just a sling and rocks alone. In addition, David was not a trained fighter, but a shepherd…

    Introduction to the Bible

    Even though some may say that there is nothing more to a narrative than what one may see and read on the pages before them, I believe that some stories are more than just historical narratives. For example, in the story of David and Goliath I believe that the example David sets by his faith and trust in God to give both him and Israel the victory against this ominous foe as well as David's words of wisdom to combat the menacing taunts from Goliath are more than meets the eye. In this paper, I intend to dissect this passage from the Bible by explaining where it is located, I will analyze the literary style and characteristics of this passage, and I will give a detailed and thoughtful interpretation of this passage by using the appropriate exegetical approach.…

    Faith

    There are many stories mentioned throughout the bible where people went through hardships, persecution, famine, danger and God appears silent, yet they still endured. Jesus himself, when dying on the cross experienced the silence of God. I believe that although God may seem silent he never really is and to understand his silence and our doubt we need to better understand faith. It is that silence that makes Faith so challenging, that is why we must start with Faith and work our way up.…
