    B. Assuming Joseph’s heart has stopped, what cellular processes and membrane functions are going to be affected by the loss of oxygen, blood glucose, and waste removal? Assuming Joseph’s heart has stopped, the mitochondria and aerobic processes will be affected. The mitochondria is known as the powerhouse of the cell where ATP is produced. Oxygen and glucose are the main sources of energy for ATP. The muscle cells, liver cells and kidneys cells use ATP at a high rate to maintain homeostasis. The loss of oxygen and blood glucose to his organs will cause him to have a homeostatic imbalance and many of his organ cells will die causing them to lose functions. If his heart has stopped, waste removal will come to a stop. His blood flow aids in removing waste products with needed products to maintain homeostasis. Carbon dioxide is a waster product that needs to be excreted.…

    Being a Christian and a student of Communications, I felt compelled to reading The Case for Christ. I decided to use this book for this review especially due to the large amount of criticisms and backlash it had received. Lee Strobel is known for being a hard-nosed skeptical journalist and ex-investigative reporter for the Chicago Tribune. He also described himself as a "former spiritual skeptic" before his personal mission for the proof of God. Skeptics around the world claim that Jesus either never said He was God or He never exemplified the activities and mindset of God. Either way they rather triumphantly proclaim that Jesus was just a man. Some will go so far as to suggest that He was a very moral and special man, but a man nonetheless. For Strobel, there was far too much evidence against the idea of God, let alone the possibility that God became a man. God was just mythology, superstition, or wishful thinking.…

    The four Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John) claim to narrate the culmination of redemptive history in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Questions raised by the devastating effects of the fall (Gen 3) continue throughout the Old Testament and never seem to be answered. The questions linger despite the fact that God made a promise to send a Messiah; a Messiah…

    Throughout my readings of Jesus: A Revolutionary Biography by John Crossan, I went in with somewhat low expectations. My reason for this was that the topic of religion, christianity especially was something I did not have too much care for. After finishing the book however, it did enlighten some questions I had on the religion. One answer that came into light when I read the book was concerning the gospels and testaments. I wonder why was there a need to have so many different variants, with minor differences in between them. As I went through the book, it becomes a bit more clear to me, as combining the different perspectives of Christianity will allow for a great combined experience. The second thing that was a bit more clear was on the topic of other great Christian tales such as the tale with Moses and how it relates to Jesus.…

    Accepting Jesus was by far the biggest decision I have had to make. Welcoming him into my life changed me in so many ways, for example, I had finally found myself in this huge world that was filled with nothing but sin and destruction. Basically, I was a self-destructing time bomb, but Jesus stepped in right on time for me. When Jesus started taking control of my life I was in the, "rebirth," stage of my life. The rebirth stage tore me all the way down I was nothing at that stage I was like a newborn baby all over again just in a spiritual state. Coming from a broken background, I was breaking myself down by lying, cheating, just doing everything possible that I knew I could get away with. That phase gave me consequences that I was not use…

    At first glance Joshua seems to just be a story of the Israelites and the settling of the Promised Land, however, there may also be a prophetic vision of God’s plan for Salvation of His people. The book of Joshua shows the difference between living a life, like Moses, under the Law of the Old Testament and under the freedom, which came from Jesus Christ, as Joshua did. One could certainly make a strong case that Joshua 1-6 can be looked at as a metaphor of Jesus Christ and man’s salvation through Him. The evidence ranges from Joshua’s name to the meaning of the Jordan River. The implications would mean that God was discretely showing the Israelites His plan for future salvation well over a thousand years before Christ.Joshua chapters 1-6 are a very exciting time for the ancient Israelites. They had escaped from their tyrannical Egyptian rulers under the leadership of Moses, finished wandering in the desert for 40 years, and were just beginning to start to inherit the land God promised them. However, as they near the boundary of the Promised Land, the Jordan River, Moses is not allowed to enter, and dies on Mount Nebo overlooking the land “flowing with milk and honey”. The newly anointed Joshua son of Nun will be the one to lead the Israelites into the Promised Land.…

    Throughout the course of human history, people all over the world have sought answers as to where they have come from and where they are headed. Out of this comes organized religion, and almost always an accompanying figurehead. For the Jews, this figurehead might be Moses, or even Abraham; for Muslims, it is Allah; and for the approximately one third of the global population that practices some form of Christianity, that person is Jesus of Nazareth. The life of Jesus transformed an innumerable amount of people over the last two thousand years. As mentioned above, those who believe Jesus had the divine spirit within number in the billions. Interestingly, all of these people know of Jesus only through the writings of the New Testament which…

    Jesus Before Christianity (1976, 2001) by Albert Nolan is a book that explores Jesus from the perspective of his humanity, rather than his divinity. During the time that he spent on Earth, he was a teacher whose mission was to teach all people, the poor and oppressed as well as the wealthy and powerful upper social classes, how to live a fruitful life on earth. This involved changing the entire social and economic structure, specifically the possession of power, separation by social class, distribution of wealth, and oppression of the poor and infirm. Jesus taught that faith would be what enables humanity to live a righteous life. He taught that love and compassion were the keys to a good life lived on Earth.…
