  • THE NATURE and POWER of SATAN Theorizing About the Nature
    CHAPTER THREE THE NATURE AND POWER OF SATAN Theorizing about the nature, origin, and cosmological status of Satan occurs among the selected writings, especially among the later ones. However, there is an obvious lack of "speculative" interest in the sense of seeking to work out a complete cosmology of evil. Concepts as to the origin, abode, and ultimate future of Satan are often very diverse, and there are only a small number of referen­ ces. An analysis and interpretation of the nature of Satan as conceiv­ ed by the early Christian tradition will be therefore necessarily less comprehensive than a discussion of his activities. There are some basic understandings as to the nature and power of Satan common to most of the selected writers, however, and they are best summarized by the New Testament phrases: Satan, the "prince of the power of the air," "ruler of demons," "ruler of the world," and "god of this age." A. SATAN: PRINCE OF THE POWER OF THE AIR 1. Origin of Satan For the most part, the New Testament writers make no theoreti­ cal assertions as to the origin of Satan. However, a number of passages by choice of words and phraseology seem to reflect the idea of Satan as a fallen angel who is chief among a class of fallen angels, an idea which appears frequently in apocalyptic literature.1 II Peter 2 :4, for example, refers to the angels that sinned and were cast into hell. Jude 6 mentions "the angels that did not keep their own position but left their proper dwelling ..

  • A Framework of Sustainable Design for the Region of Palestine
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of Arts & Architecture A FRAMEWORK OF SUSTAINABLE DESIGN FOR THE REGION OF PALESTINE A Thesis in Architecture by Hala Marwan Haddad © 2010 Hala Marwan Haddad Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Architecture December 2010 The Thesis of Hala Marwan Haddad was reviewed and approved* by the following: Ute Poerschke Associate Professor of Architecture Thesis Advisor James Wines Professor of Architecture Madis Pihlak Associate Professor of Architecture Alexandra Staub Associate Professor of Architecture *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. ii Abstract: Many definitions of sustainable design have emerged in the past twenty years, most of which focused on the environmental part of the design process. In recent years, especially with the emergence of sustainable design as an international trend, more attention has been directed towards the social and economic part of sustainable design for a building to be truly sustainable and able of fitting in any context, for the long run. This thesis explores into the different dimensions of sustainable design, studying what makes a building sustainable, and using that as a base to define sustainable design in the region of Palestine, a small country in the northern part of the Middle East and east of Mediterranean, to define a framework of sustainable design. The framework achieved at the end of this study uses the vernacular as a passively sustainable prototype of sustainable design, for its environmental, socio cultural and economic complexity of a building, integrated with modern active techniques, that helped define the framework and helps define the future of the vernacular as a sustainable structure in different regions of the world.

  • The Figure of Pontius Pilate in the Novel the Master and Margarita by Bulgakov Compared with Pilate in the Bible
    The Figure of Pontius Pilate in the Novel The Master and Margarita by Bulgakov Compared with Pilate in the Bible Belfjore Qose discusses the character of Pontius Pilate in the novel compared to Pontius Pilate in the Bible, and concludes he is more human than all the other biblical characters that Bulgakov depicts . KAIROS - Evangelical Journal of Theology/Vol. VII. No. 1 (2013), pp. 55-67. From the archives of the website The Master and Margarita http://www.masterandmargarita.eu Webmaster Jan Vanhellemont B-3000 Leuven +32475260793 The Figure of Pontius Pilate in the Novel The Master and Margarita by Bulgakov Compared with Pilate in the Bible Belfjore Qose Aleksandër Moisiu University of Durrës, Albania [email protected] UDK:82 Original scientific paper Received: February, 2013. Accepted: April, 2013. Summary The study of the novel The Master and Margarita is focused on the interpretation and the making of a character that Bulgakov created based on the biblical figure. The analytical method used is a comparative one, and the study integrates a deep comparison of the narration techniques and interpretations of the figure in the light of mystic and occult culture. The comparison between the biblical archetype of the character of Pontius Pilate and the re-creation and interpretation of the character in the novel is not just a dry comparison, but it aims to climb over the culture it represents, Christian culture and ethics, regarding the concept of good and evil. As the narrator of the novel changes focus on different subjects, and since the central figure of the storytelling differs, it was more important for us to study the figure of Pontius Pilate than Yeshua (Christ).

  • Saints & Sinners: Joseph of Arimathea
    SAINTS & SINNERS: JOSEPH OF ARIMATHEA March 24 2021 I Corinthians 15:12-26 John 19:31-42 In the holy name of Jesus, Amen. For our Lord’s birth and early life, God the Father provided a man named of Joseph. A righteous, pious man who would raise the little baby Jesus in the knowledge of the Scriptures and instill in Him the disciplines of a devout, religious life. Namely, the practice of morning and evening prayer, the routine of attending synagogue each week, as well as making regular pilgrimages to Jerusalem throughout the year. So, every day, once a week, and special times throughout the year, Joseph taught Jesus to turn His attention toward God and the truths of God. All of this, along with our Lord’s carpentry skills, Jesus learned from Joseph. For our Lord’s death, God the Father provided another Joseph, who was not our Lord’s teacher, as the first Joseph was, but rather, was one of our Lord’s disciples, a learner of Jesus. Joseph of Arimathea. This Joseph was a respected member of the Sanhedrin, the Jewish religious council in Jerusalem, that at times, was a source of consternation for our Lord during His earthly ministry. Just listen to how St. Paul, who wasn’t a member of the Sanhedrin, but he clearly was on track to become one, that is, if the resurrected Jesus hadn’t met him on the Road to Damascus. Listen to how St. Paul described those of this elite religious, ruling class— they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.

  • Monologue – Joseph of Arimathea
    Voices in Jesus’ Story – Pilate Adapted from monologue in If Only I Had Known Scripture: Luke 23:1-7, 11, 13-25 Ric Gerard April 7, 2019 Truth. He wanted to talk about “truth” to me. He’d come into the world for the purpose of telling people the truth, he said. Hah! “What is truth?” I asked him. Not that I was all that interested in what he might say. I knew what truth was from my vantage point. Power. Power is truth. That’s what I showed him. I, Pontius Pilate, Procurator of the Roman province of Judea, servant of my lord the Emperor Tiberius, I showed him. I, Pontius Pilate, appointed head of a conquered people, obedient to the state I serve faithfully, I showed your Jesus that power is truth. Yes, I am the one who sentenced your leader to be executed. I don’t deny it. I’m not exactly proud of it, but it was the job to be done. I washed my hands of the whole affair a long time ago. I had my orders, you know. Keep the peace. Maintain law and order. Use whatever force is necessary to keep matters from getting out of hand. So I did. I was just doing my job. Do you really think you would have handed down a different verdict if you’d been in my place? I’d had my eye on your Jesus of Nazareth for some time. Does that surprise you? Listen, you don’t get to be governor of a Roman province by being indifferent to potential troublemakers.

  • APPROACHES to OCCULTISM in the QUR'an and the SUNNAH
    Kelam Araştırmaları 1:1 (2003), s.21-36. APPROACHES to OCCULTISM in THE QUR'AN AND THE SUNNAH İlyas ÇELEBİ, Ph.D, Marmara Universitiy Divinity Faculty [email protected] I. Definition Occultism is a general term, used for the movements which claim that one can get some information or can display extraordinary actions through using the inner skills or establishing relationships with the supernatural beings or events. The one who is occultic involved in movements can also claim that they can reach the knowledge of the truth and upper sentimental world, not by experimental methods and rational ways but by using some unusual methods. Occultism was originated in the primitive societies which means to believe, above all, in the mythological beings, whilst they try to explain or understand the Nature and what happens in it; as a result of this, they show the false and secret reasons instead of the actual reasons. This method can also exhibit a convenient position with their ontology based on the mythology .Some occultist methods appeared and were handed down via generations by transforming these methods into more systematic and more mysterious forms, such as in the Sumerian, the Assyrian, the Babylonian and the Indian civilisations. It is noted that in the beginning of Islam, to whom Islam addressed first Arabs, had some important information of every kinds of occultism. Some scholars such Ibn al-Nadim, Ibn Haldun, Tashkoprizadah or Katip Cheleby, have listed certain occultist methods in their classifications of the Sciences. Among

  • The Origin of Satan: How Christians Demonized Jews, Pagans, and Heretics by Elaine Pagels
    Review of: The Origin of Satan: How Christians Demonized Jews, Pagans, and Heretics by Elaine Pagels Quentin Spannagel Satan is one of the most prevalent religious figures in the mind of many Christians. How Satan came into being, and how he has been personified and utilized by the early Christian church is unknown to many Christians today. Elaine Pagels, in her book The Origin of Satan, demonstrated that Christians were one of the first groups to use the concept of a singular evil-being who stood in opposition to God. Since Christians naturally identified themselves with God and Jesus, they began to associate their enemies more closely with Satan’s influence and the forces of evil. Pagels’s main thesis was that from the first century to present-day, it has been an unfortunate characteristic of Christians to demonize their religious or social opponents, demonstrated by Christian interactions with Jews, Pagans, and Gnostic Christians. The first chapter, titled “The Gospel of Mark and the Jewish War,” is where Pagels argued that the Christian Movement was born into a time of political turmoil with the Jewish War as the flashpoint. At this point in history, Judea was politically subjugated by the Roman Empire, and guerilla leaders were trying to cite rebellion for “liberty in the name of God.”695 Judea was extremely resistant to Roman subjugation since Jewish people believed they were God’s chosen people, and it wasn’t right for them to be under subjugation to pagan heathens. When suppressing rebellion, the Roman Empire was exceptionally cruel and barbaric, which instigated the Jewish people into further rebellion.
