The Benjaminville Friends Meeting House and Burial Ground is a Friends Meeting House of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers), located north of the rural village of Holder in McLean County, Illinois. It was once the site of a now-defunct village called Benjaminville, founded in 1856 after Quakers settled the area. More Quakers followed, and the burial ground, then the current meeting house in 1874, were constructed. This site, listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places since 1983, is all that remains of that village. The burial ground preceded the meeting house, as the site was home to another meeting house that was constructed in 1859. The Benjaminville Meeting House represents a well-constructed example of Quaker...

Betrothal (also called espousal) is a formal state of engagement to be married. Historically betrothal was a formal contract, blessed or officiated by a religious authority. Betrothal was binding as marriage and a divorce was necessary to terminate a betrothal. Betrothed couples were regarded legally as husband and wife - even before their wedding and physical union. In Jewish weddings the betrothal is part of the Jewish wedding ceremony. Typical steps of a betrothal were: Usually done by the couple's families with bride and groom having no input. This is no longer practiced except in some cultures (e.g. limited groups of conservatives in Israel, India), and most of these have a requirement that the bride be allowed at least veto power....

In the religious culture of a significant part of Europe, the icon as a liturgical element of the Orthodox Church plays an important role. For a believer, it can have a transformative impact. It is a means towards the realisation of personhood because it brings people into direct relationship with God. The holy person depicted in the icon becomes present through it. The icon is thus a means of knowing God. Since ‘the icon participates in the holiness of the represented’ and ‘reveals the incorruptible kingdom of God’, through it ‘the beholder becomes a participant of divine life’. It means that a human being becomes capable of transfiguring matter and creating the sacred. This book encapsulates such concepts particularly as...

Since Genesis, the devil has been using all kinds of ruses to sway man kind from trusting God's holy word to trusting emotions and experiences. The devil has now infiltrated; churches , bible colleges, seminaries and Christian media in order to pervert God's word and hence control the church. In today's postmodern Christian church, ‘born again' Christians are fed on perverted music and hype more than the substance of the word of God. Very few Christians spend enough time studying and meditating about the word of God. The so called Christian Television channels spend a lot of time on secular entertainment than...

They are, however, present in the New King James Version, published in 1979.Most modern textual scholars consider these verses interpolations. In any case, the verse numbers have been reserved even in translations which omit the verses.

The Qur'an, the central religious text of Islam, contains references to over fifty people also found in the Bible, typically in the same or similar narratives. Western secular scholars have tended to analyze such similarities as evidence for the influence of pre-existing traditions on the composition of the Qur'an. This has been denied by Muslim apologists. From a traditionalist Muslim perspective such a discussion can make no sense, as Muslims believe that the Qur'an was sent from Allah through the angel Jibrael to Muhammad in a series of revelations, and this perfect divinely inspired text was then...

It embraces a holistic approach that is more suitable for the context of the study. It is crucial for the African church to be on the cutting edge in addressing issues contributing to the various conflicts on the continent in order to maintain her relevance to society and to fulfill her missiological mandate.

Sabbath in the Bible is a weekly day of rest and time of worship. It is observed differently in Judaism and Christianity and informs a similar occasion in several other faiths. Though many viewpoints and definitions have arisen over the millennia, most originate in the same textual tradition. Sabbath was first described in the Biblical account of the seventh day of Creation. Observation and remembrance of Sabbath is one of the Ten Commandments though views differ on the applicability of Biblical law in Christianity. Most people who observe Biblical Sabbath regard it as having been instituted as a perpetual covenant the people of Israel and proselytes a sign in respect for the day during which God rested after having completed Creation in...

A Biblical genre is a classification of Bible literature according to literary genre. The genre of a particular Bible passage is ordinarily identified by analysis of its general writing style, tone, form, structure, literary technique, content, design, and related linguistic factors; texts that exhibit a common set of literary features are together considered as belonging to a genre. In Biblical studies, genres are usually associated with whole books of the Bible, because each of its books comprises a complete textual unit; however, a book may be internally composed of a variety of styles, forms, and so forth, and thus bear the characteristics of more than one genre.Within the discipline of literary analysis, the existence and...

Biblical theology is a discipline within Christian theology which studies the Bible from the perspective of understanding the progressive history of God revealing Himself to humanity following the Fall and throughout the Old Testament and New Testament. It particularly focuses on the epochs of the Old Testament in order to understand how each part of it ultimately points forward to fulfillment in the life mission of Jesus Christ. Because scholars have tended to use the term in different ways, biblical theology has been notoriously difficult to define. Данное издание не является оригинальным.
