    Martin Luther changed history in the 1500's. In 1517 Luther took a public stand against friar Johann Tetzel. Tetzel was selling indulgences by telling people they could buy there way into heaven.

    Five documents were made that established self-government and individual liberty in different ways. To begin talking about the documents that changed the history of the world, lets begin with the Revolutions that happened before their creation. “The Glorious Revolution, American Revolution, and French Revolution all attempted to establish principles of government...and the..revolutions had enduring effects...on..expectations for self-government and individual liberty.” (“The Evo. of Dem. Ideals” 8) Revolutions in the world also caused the creation of five documents, three of which I will discuss, that were written following ideals that drove these revolutions. I believe that the Magna Carta, US Bill of Rights, and the Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen do extend the governments ideals because without them people wouldn’t know their rights and would never have questioned the government in the first place.…

    “What is the New Testament?” “Is there one New Testament Message?” F. F. Bruce addresses these questions in his book, The Message of the New Testament. He answers the first question quickly in the prologue stating, “To Christians, it is the second and shorter division of their sacred scriptures, ‘God’s Word written’” (11). Bruce dedicates this work to answering the second question by dividing the New Testament into ten sections or chapters represented by one or more of the books of the New Testament. He considers the theme and distinct contribution each makes to what he considers the single overall witness of the New Testament that “Jesus Christ is Lord” (12). This paper will give specific attention to the contribution of the general epistles from Bruce’s viewpoint and a critical analysis of the importance Bruce gave to these books, as well as, the other books of the New Testament. Bruce was a lifelong New Testament scholar who has authored “many critical and devotional works, and serves as Editor for THE NEW INTERNATIONAL COMMENTARY ON THE NEW TESTAMENT” (back cover). He was Ryland’s Professor of Biblical Criticism and Exegesis at the University of Manchester (back cover).…

    The process by which Scripture has been preserved and compiled is one whose history is worth noting. The early church had many opportunities to share the Good News of Christ via word of mouth, but from the time of Christ’s resurrection until the mid-second century, there had not been a single culmination of writings considered to be essential for the purposes of teaching and spreading the Gospel. Increasing heretical opposition in conjunction with the need for a standard of living to follow gave rise to the formation of the New Testament Canon; however, this would not come without multiple false teachers and many arguments over what would classify as “inspired by God”. To seek the answer to one of history’s most important questions, we must understand what the canon is, how it was inspired and to whom authority was given in determining what would be included in such Holy Scriptures.…

    Opinions on the contribution of the Claphamites have been variable. However, unless the overall goals of the Clapham Sect are taken into account, assessments of the social, political, and theological implications of the group's activities will find the group wanting – one must consider what Wilberforce himself was trying to achieve. From the moment of his conversion – the "great change" – Wilberforce became totally dedicated to God, and his talents to his service . His subsequent actions were the result of a belief that God had commissioned him to a specific task. Venn, as pastor to the group, believed that Christianity was not merely an act of homage to God, but our entire lives, including work, should be done to glorify God . Thus in the tradition of Wesley and Newton, Wilberforce and the Clapham sect sought to bring England to share their vibrant personal relationship with God through the power of the gospel . However, it cannot be said that religious kingdom-building was the…
