Lehman Strauss’s article “Why God Became Man” details several arguments as to why the incarnation of Jesus Christ happened in the manner in which it did. The author states several truths that were affirmed by early Church doctrine at the Council of Chalcedon in A.D. 451. The Council of Chalcedon stated that Christ was both truly man and truly God. The author based on the topic selected and the use of biblical references has an evangelical Christian worldview and adheres to the understanding that the Bible is infallible and inspired, which he displays in this article. Furthermore, the author clearly displays dispensationalist views within his article by noting at the end, the time in which Christ will be seated on David’s throne and that Israel was not forgotten by the incarnation of the Son. A dispensationalist view is a belief there are two distinct peoples of God, which are the Church and Israel, which the Church did not replace.…

Why did Christianity grow so rapidly in the first four centuries AD? How did a tiny unknown movement of a group of people grow to be one of the dominant forces in the Roman Empire? “God’s providence” and “miracles” has been the easiest way to explain such a puzzle. Yet, stopping at such answers deprives us from the opportunity to better understand the complexity of the early Christians growth and takes from us the lessons we can gain from the experience.…
In Under the Feet of Jesus Viramontes plays with the heartstrings of those who read the story. It explores deeply the subjective and symbolic violence of the exploitation and destruction of migrant workers. The beautiful prose fantasizes the horrid conditions and everyday struggles that plague the family. With one misstep they are crushed beneath the societal system that is meant to even out the playing field. They are set up to fail. The focus is not truly on Alejo’s tragedy, but the symbolic destruction and disposal of a “tool” for the farm owners. Easily replaceable Alejo is nothing more than a broken basket. As Estrella puts it aptly “it was their bones that kept the air conditioning in the cars humming,…
Jesus is the Son of God, the second person of the Trinity of God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; that his life on earth, his crucifixion, resurrection, and ascension into heaven are proof of God's love for humanity and God's forgiveness of human sins; and that by faith in Jesus one may attain salvation and eternal life…

A strong quote from John 11:1-44 is, “And when he had said this, he cried out in a loud voice, Lazarus, come out! (John 11:44)”. This quote connects back the Doctrine of Incarnation, which is, “The Catholic/Christian belief that Jesus: Became flesh and assumed human nature, Is the son of God: the second person of the Trinity, and lastly is full human and fully God” (Miller). In addition, the definition for Incarnational Ministry is, “Christians are called to “become ‘Christs” and “incarnat[e] Christ’s love” (Miller). The story of John in chapter 11 and verses 1 through 44 demonstrates Jesus’ incarnation and teaches us that Jesus is fully God and fully human.…
“Incarnational” Apologetics is the representative public and private lifestyle of a Christian that validates to the world the absolute truths of the Bible. It should be the natural result of a “born again” experience and is communicated to the world through both actions and attitudes of Christians as they consistently live out the tenants of their faith in community with both the redeemed and unredeemed.…
