1 Corinthians 11: Biblical Silence
The Lord supper in 1 Corinthians 11:17-32 instructs us how to conduct and is instituted with a self examination in verses 27-32; the place is when we are assembled together, the time is in the gray/purry area and in Acts 20:7 gives us the day and frequency, first day of the week. Biblical silence eliminates the rest of the week. However, Biblical silence does not eliminate where and when or how many times we conduct the Lords Supper as long as it is on the first day of the week and as we are assembled together.

    Mark 11: 1-11 Dialectical Journal

    Response: “It is true Abel, He chooses us to be His instrument to proclaim His Word to the world. In Mark 11:1-11, Jesus used a little donkey to ride when entering the city of Jerusalem, people did not look at the donkey, they looked to the One who was riding a donkey and cried out in praises (NKJV). We have to thank Him for choosing us though we had so many things that He does like in us. Alan Carr (2003) said that donkey needed someone to take charge of it, who is our Lord. A wild donkey submitted itself to the Lord and it was not frightened by the crowds but surrendered itself to the Lord totally.”…

    King Charles V: Protestant Colloquy

    Without complete agreement on these 15 Articles, a true union of the Protestant factions would fail against the Catholics. The congregation made it through fourteen of these sacraments with little issue before conflicts arose surrounding the 15th. Zwingli, Luther, and their colleagues disagreed on how the Eucharist or Lords Supper should be viewed. Zwingli viewed the Lords Supper as a symbolic ceremony where eating of the bread and drinking of the wine symbolized Jesus’ flesh and blood merely for the purpose of commemorating and remembering the Savior and his sacrificial act. Luther on the other hand believed that at the moment of presenting and blessing the Eucharist, the previously normal bread and wine became holy, equal to the actual flesh and blood of the Christ, and that Jesus was thenceforth in the presence of the people at the ceremony. Zwingli argued that Jesus was not omnipresent and was up in heaven watching you partake in the Lords Supper and acknowledging it. Luther argued that the phrase “hoc est corpus meum” meant “this is my body,” and was meant to be taken literally. Zwingli countered that “hoc est corpus meum” meant instead “this signifies my body,” and emphasized the symbolism of the act rather than the literal presence of the Christ. At the end of the…

    The Chosen: Silence Analysis

    Silence serves as a symbol, signifying many things in The Chosen, by Chaim Potok. Throughout the book, Reb Saunders rarely converses with his Danny unless it is about Talmud or their religion. In chapter 18, he says that he did this to teach his son to understand and feel pain and suffering. In addition, he does this because this was the way he was raised by his own father. Reb Saunders wanted his son to grow up with the soul of a tzaddik so that he may be able to feel the suffering all over the world. Nevertheless, it is disputed whether or not Reb Saunders’ method was completely successful because Danny does not seem any more compassionate than Reuven. Also, when Reb Saunders imposed silence upon his family, Danny reluctantly hid things from his father, including his dream of becoming a psychologist instead of a tzaddik. However, at the end of the novel, when Mr. Malter asks him if he will raise his children in silence, he replies that he will if there is no other ways. This shows that Danny does not abhor the way he was raised, but he acknowledges that there are better approaches.…

    In the book "The Chosen" by Chaim Potok, there are many situations where silence between characters is present.

On the other hand, Reb Saunders, a Jewish Hasidic leader, raises his oldest son in silence to prepare him for his future as a Rabbi. Silence is a driving force to understand and learn about other characters and the world around them.…

    bible 105 #4

    The Old Testament ends with the prophets. These teachers provided insight on many issues facing Jews who were desperate to know God. Idolatry, social injustice and religious ritualism are three areas that are emphasized in their teachings and instilled in the minds and hearts of believers today. The prophets were great teachers who had much to say about God and the way man lived, social issues they faced, religious rituals they took part in, and their teachings are just as important today as they were in the past.…

    Elie Wiesel Silence

    “And yet, having lived through this experience, one could not keep silent no matter how difficult, if not impossible, it was to speak” (Wiesel introduction). Elie Wiesel introduces his tragic memoir Night with the fact that silence was not the answer for victims of atrocities. This memoir depicts Elie Wiesel’s experiences at Auschwitz, one of the cruelest concentration camps during the Holocaust. Through the pain and seemingly eternal silence that fell upon the victims, a voice needed arise to shed light on the broken actions in the world. Elie Wiesel, in his memoir Night, reminds the world that “silence” or “indifference” to atrocities committed anywhere is an unacceptable answer to those in need.…

    1 Samuel 17: 32-54 Essay

    The passage of 1 Samuel 17:32-54 opens with a brief discussion between Saul and David over the Philistine giant Goliath. A terrified Saul pleads with David not to accept Goliath’s challenge of a fight to the death. However, David is determined on confronting the giant as he has insulted God and His people. After hearing David’s passionate words, Saul allows him to fight. Approaching Goliath, David is dressed in a simple tunic, carrying a staff as well as his sling and pouch of rocks. They exchange words and Goliath charges. David calmly reaches into his pouch and using his sling hurtles a stone, embedding it in Goliath’s head. He needed neither sword nor spear to defeat the Philistine giant, instead it was His faith in God that allowed him…

    The Eucharist Vs. Greek Orthodox Church

    Communion is the liturgical act celebrated by Christians in honor of Jesus Christ’s death. Through bread and wine, members of the church reenact Jesus’ last supper, remember his sacrificial death, anticipate their reunion in Heaven, and reconfirm their unity with other members of the church. Communion is a central unit of worship in almost all Christian churches, but communion has been a source of conflict among Christians. The Eucharist can vary in tradition among the many denominations of Christianity. Because I attended the Catholic Church and Greek Orthodox Church, I will be focusing on one difference and two similarities between them. Both of these branches of Christianity do not agree on what the bread and wine actually represent or mean.…

    Transubstantiation

    The Last Supper Jesus had with his disciples begun the process that we now know as the Eucharist, Holy Communion, and Holy Mass is one of the several sacraments. The Eucharist is the reenactment, so to speak, of the Last Supper, and is practiced in the Christian faith as an offering, or sacrifice. This happens differently depending on which faith one practices. The Catholic Church believes that once the bread and wine have been blessed, they cease to be bread and wine and actually become the body and blood of Christ.…
