    Christianity is an ancient religion that is centered on the teachings of Christ. The history of Christianity concerns the Christian religion, its followers and the Church with its various denominations, from the first century to the present. Christianity was founded in the 1st century in the Levant region of the Middle East by Jesus of Nazareth, who is prophesied in the Old Testament to be the Christ or chosen one of God.

    The Old Testament of the Holy Bible gives many examples which provide modern man with guidelines for the use of scientific method. Millam (2008) explains that there is an underlying order in nature demonstrated by the patterns and regularities of God’s creations. These regularities can be seen in the forces of nature and are stable throughout space and time (Millam, 2008). The original classification of species, use of precise measurement, and even the first account of scientific research, are all included in the Old Testament of the Holy Scriptures. God gives scientists some clear frames of reference for seeking knowledge and truth in science.…

    Two research papers are required by all students in this course. Each paper should be 8–10 double-spaced pages in length, although you should consider this as a general guideline (longer papers will not be penalized, and a shorter paper, if very well done, could be an "A" quality paper). Each paper is a research paper, meaning that quality of research does impact the grade of the paper. You should plan ahead in developing a strategy for securing resources for each paper. Internet sources, while not forbidden, are generally discouraged as they are often of dubious quality. With this in mind, you should aim to use at least five quality sources for each paper, including, but not limited to, commentaries and journal articles. Papers will be graded based upon the clarity and style with which they were written, quality of research, the strength of the arguments made, and the depth of support provided through scripture. All sources should be cited through footnotes. Bible references may be cited in-text. Papers should also include a proper bibliography of all sources cited (besides the Bible, which is not considered a bibliography source). Each paper must be completed in Turabian format and using Microsoft Word.…

    The scientific method is a tool that enables a person to seek out new knowledge, or correct and integrate new knowledge. It is composed of eight individual steps: which start out with defining a question, gathering information and resources, form an explanatory hypothesis, test the hypothesis by performing an experiment and collecting data in a reproducible manner, analyze the data, interpret the data and draw conclusions that serve as a starting point for new hypothesis, publish results, and ends with a retest. The steps can be grouped into four different essential elements: operation, observation, model, and utility function.…

    I have a Christian worldview. A worldview is the structure by which an individual or group makes sense of the world. Philip Graham Ryken describes it as “our orientation to reality.” It seeks answers to questions like, “How did we get here?” and “In what is our ultimate hope?” Ryken believes all worldviews are inherently religious because they reveal our “fundamental convictions,” particularly what we believe about God. Further, he believes we all develop a worldview, whether consciously or subconsciously, with regard to the fundamental question of origin, problem, and hope. There are many factors which contribute to one’s worldview, including one’s background, experiences, education, socio-economic circumstances and nationality. Of course,…
