  • The Challenges to Islam from Scientific Views AO1
    The challenges to Islam from scientific views AO1 The compatibility of Islam with scientific theories The key difference between Islam and science is that Muslims believe that Allah created the universe as part of his divine master plan. The Big Bang and other scientific theories of the creation of the universe suggest how matter could come together and split apart without the need to refer to a first cause. However, whether it is the Big Bang or one of the other theories, Muslims believe that God is at work in the creation constantly. The Qur’an seems to agree that change happened gradually; that planets moved apart; that life then came into being but it is the reason behind such changes that Muslims see as Allah as they argue that Allah creates the forces to control the universe, and in that way the events described by modern scientists in their version of creation can be accepted. Many Muslim philosophers such as Al-Biruni saw evidence in the world that pointed to Allah as a creator and the first cause. They also argued that the universe was created within time. Medieval philosophers used reason to analyse what they saw and tried to make sense of creation just like a scientist might do today. This scientific method has been used to show that there is beauty and meaning in the universe and a power behind it all. However, the creation of humanity brings in one of the most difficult and controversial of scientific theories for a Muslim: evolution. Just as with other religious believers from different religious traditions, many Muslims just reject outright the theory of evolution and accept that if Allah is ‘God’ then anything is possible.

  • LIKE FATHER, LIKE SON GENESIS 4:1–2 Why Did Cain Kill His Brother Abel?
    CHAPTER ONE LIKE FATHER, LIKE SON GENESIS 4:1–2 You two are book-men: can you tell me by your wit; What was a month old at Cain’s birth, that’s not five weeks old as yet? (Shakespeare—Love’s Labor’s Lost 4.2.40) Why did Cain kill his brother Abel? It is usually assumed by modern commentators that God’s rejection of Cain’s offering led him to kill his brother in a fit of jealousy.1 Such a conclusion is logical in light of the way the action in the story is arranged. But the fact is we are never told the specific reason for the murder. Ancient exegetes, as we will see later, also speculated over Cain’s motive and sometimes provided the same conclusion as modern interpreters. But some suggested that there was something more sinister behind the killing, that there was something inborn about Cain that led him to earn the title of first murderer. These interpreters pushed back past the actual murder to look, as would a good biographer, at what it was about Cain’s birth and childhood that led him to his moment of infamy. Correspond- ingly, they asked similar questions about Abel. The result was a devel- opment of traditions that became associated with the brothers’ births, names and occupations. Who was Cain’s father? As we noted in the introduction, Cain and Abel is a story of firsts. In Gen 4:1 we find the first ever account of sexual relations between humans with the end result being the first pregnancy.

  • Chrysostom and Augustine on the Sin of Adam and Its Consequences
    "Chrysostom and Augustine on the Sin of Adam and its Consequences" A Study of Chrysostom's “Homily 10, On Romans” and Augustine's Interpretation of it in Contra Julianum by Fr. Panayiotis Papageorgiou, Ph.D. Presented at the Eleventh International Conference on Patristic Studies Oxford August 23, 1991 Published in the St. Vladimir's Theological Quarterly, Vol. 39 - No. 4, 1995 Introduction A detail, which for some may seem minor, regarding the meaning of “the sin of the first man” and its consequences, has separated the Eastern and Western theological traditions, from the time of St. Augustine. The majority of Eastern Fathers understood that the transgression of Adam caused the fall of humanity away from the grace of God, the introduction of death, pain, fear and suffering into our lives, and the introduction of the human defects1 into our nature.2 Augustine's understanding, on the other hand, was that all of the above are consequences of the fact that the sin of Adam and his guilt are transmitted, or propagated, through the act of procreation3 and are found in every person born. Hence, the sin of Adam defiles all humanity including children, who have no other sins of their own. Therefore, all human beings are condemned because of the sin of Adam (original sin), which they bring with them and for which they become responsible, unless they are baptized. Although, in his work Contra Julianum Pelagianum4 he examined some of the works of various Fathers, Eastern and Western, he still came to the conclusion that they all agreed with him.

  • Eve & Adam Seth Noah & Wife
    Eve & Adam God created the first man and woman as the first family. They made a horrible choice to sin against God. But God had a perfect plan to rescue them and all of us. It’s the first promise. (Genesis 3:15) 1 Noah & Wife God told Noah to build a big boat called an ark. God was going to Seth send rain to destroy the earth through a flood. It had never rained Cain was wicked. When Adam was 130 years old, he had another son before. The people mocked Noah for building the ark but God named Seth. God had chosen another man from which He would bring the promised to save Noah, his wife and sons. Noah lived another Messiah. Then men began calling on the Lord again. (Genesis 4:25-26) 350 years after he and his family left the ark. Each son went a different direction and Shem stayed in the same region as the ark landed. It is believed that Abraham is part of Shem’s family. 2 3 Abraham & Sarah Shem God spoke to Abraham and told him to pack up his wife and his house- hold (which was a lot of people that worked for him and all their animals) Noah had three sons. Shem, Ham and Japeth. Ham went south (Israel, and move to another place. God didn’t tell him where but told him to get Egypt, Africa), Japeth went north (Europe) and Shem made his life going. (Genesis 12) They had no children but a nephew named Lot.

  • 'NOT to BE RITEN': the MORMON TEMPLE RITE AS ORAL CANON Kathleen Flake Abstract the Manner in Which the LDS Church Administers I
    'NOT TO BE RITEN': THE MORMON TEMPLE RITE AS ORAL CANON Kathleen Flake Abstract The manner in which the LDS Church administers its temple rite constitutes a strategic use of the conventions of an oral tradition in a modern, literate society. Three effects of this strategy are con- sidered. First, refusing to make a text of the rite available and in- sisting that its specific content not be revealed or otherwise sub- jected to discursive thought sustains the rite's canonical authority as immutable truth, notwithstanding its periodic mutation. Secondly, the conventions of oral tradition structure the relation- ships created by the ritual and constitute a principal means by which the Church's historic separatism is maintained. Finally, these conventions when applied to the temple rite maximize ritu- al's capacity to adapt the canon to the needs of successive genera- tions of the faithful while minimizing skepticism and schism. By letter of June, 1842, one of Joseph Smith's closest associates in the for- mative days of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints ("LDS Church" or "the LDS") writes to another of the newly-received temple ceremony: I wish you was here so as to feel and hear for your Self, we have recieved some pressious things through the Prophet...that would cause your soul to rejoice I can not give them to you on paper fore they are not to be riten. (Heber C. Kimball to Parley P. Pratt, Gregory Prince [n.d.:39]). In the ensuing one hundred and fifty years, the LDS Church has not wavered from its earliest insistence that its temple rite is "not to be riten," but only to be experienced by the faithful who "feel and hear for" them- selves by participating in the ritual.

  • The Spread of Sin
    SESSION FOUR The Spread of Sin SESSION SUMMARY In this session we will see how sin spread from Adam and Eve to their descendants—Cain and Abel. Sin begins with evil desires that lead to actions against God and our neighbors, actions that deserve God’s condemnation. Thankfully, God offers a merciful promise powerful enough to overcome our sin, and through His grace we are rescued. SCRIPTURE Genesis 4:1-16,25-26 36 Leader Guide / Session 4 THE POINT Sin spreads throughout the hearts and actions of people. INTRO/STARTER 5-10 MINUTES Option 1 Share the following scenario with students: You can feel your heart in your throat. Your mind is fixated, focused, and at the same time it seems like it’s not working at all. Your conscience tells your wayward heart: “No! You shouldn’t do what you’re about to do!” Perhaps you are with your friends and you feel a word of gossip churning in the pit of your stomach. Perhaps you are alone and feel the lure of a pornographic website. Perhaps you are angry, and even though you know it’s wrong and hate when this happens, you can’t stop the volcanic rage bubbling up inside of you. State that whether it’s sexual sin, gossip, lying, anger, stealing, or hidden sins like pride, covetousness, or idolatry of the heart, we all understand the luring and enticing power of sin. We know we should resist, but often we do it anyway. Point out that the Bible exposes the ugliness of sin because the Bible magnifies the beauty of salvation.
