  • King of Kings (Matthew 2)
    washington,wa s h i n g t o n , dcd c KING OF KINGS Epiphany 2019 Matthew 2:1-12 Dan Claire The story of the Wise Men is the sequel to Matthew’s account of the birth of Jesus, and it begins with two important details that weren’t mentioned in chapter one: namely, the place and the time. Matthew writes: “Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the east came to Jerusalem.” (2:1) The place and the time of a story usually aren’t all that exciting, but if it’s a good story, these details are often essential for understanding what the story is all about. That’s certainly the case in Matthew’s story. The place where Jesus was born, Matthew tells us, was Bethlehem–not Jerusalem. Isn’t it odd that Matthew didn’t mention this earlier, when he told the story of Jesus' birth? Matthew was saving this detail until now, until the story of the Wise Men. Most people would have expected the new king to be born in the royal palace in Jerusalem, ~5 miles to the north, and that’s exactly where the Wise Men looked first. They arrived and asked, “Where is he who has been born king of the Jews? For we saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.” (2:2) But Jesus wasn’t there. He was in the City of David, in Bethlehem and not in Jerusalem.

    1 5 From political power to the power of the image: contemporary ‘British’ cinema and the nation’s monarchs Andrew Higson INTRODUCTION: THE HERITAGE OF MONARCHY AND THE ROYALS ON FILM From Kenneth Branagh’s Henry V Shakespeare adaptation in 1989 to the story of the fi nal years of the former Princess of Wales, inDiana in 2013, at least twenty-six English-language feature fi lms dealt in some way with the British monarchy. 1 All of these fi lms (the dates and directors of which will be indi- cated below) retell more or less familiar stories about past and present kings and queens, princes and princesses. This is just one indication that the institution of monarchy remains one of the most enduring aspects of the British national heritage: these stories and characters, their iconic settings and their splendid mise-en-scène still play a vital role in the historical and contemporary experience and projection of British national identity and ideas of nationhood. These stories and characters are also of course endlessly recycled in the pre- sent period in other media as well as through the heritage industry. The mon- archy, its history and its present manifestation, is clearly highly marketable, whether in terms of tourism, the trade in royal memorabilia or artefacts, or images of the monarchy – in paintings, prints, fi lms, books, magazines, televi- sion programmes, on the Internet and so on. The public image of the monarchy is not consistent across the period being explored here, however, and it is worth noting that there was a waning of support for the contemporary royal family in the 1990s, not least because of how it was perceived to have treated Diana.

  • King of Kings (Sermon Outline)
    King of Kings Christmas/Advent 2019 Rob Rogers December 15, 2019 _________________________________________ Long before the moment of His birth, it was foretold that one day, a King would come... and that this King wouldn’t simply be added to mankind’s long list of failed and fallen kings... but that this King would be a TRUE King, a GOOD King. And that when this King took His throne, not just all people... but all of creation would blossom and flourish, and bloom underneath His rule and reign. In Luke 1, the angel appears to Mary and tells her, you’re going to have a son, His name will be Jesus, He will be great, He will be enthroned as King, He will reign forever, and there will be no end to His Kingdom. In Matthew 2, the wise men, following the star... come to King Herod, asking for the One who has been born King of the Jews. The storyline of Scripture tells us that this baby — born in a manger, 2,000 years ago in an obscure little town, to a no-name family, with an incredibly checkered bloodline, from a belittled, struggling, and oppressed nation — is the One True King, the Good King, the King of Kings. But before this King would take His throne for good, before His Kingdom would be established, He’d have to lay everything down... and this is exactly what He did. • Philippians 2:5-11 Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, 6 who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7 but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men.

  • Kingship 1 Kings 1:1-2:46 Introduction What Possible Relevance Does This Antiquated Book Have for Our Lives? I Mean, Other Than
    Kingship 1 Kings 1:1-2:46 Introduction What possible relevance does this antiquated book have for our lives? I mean, other than helping you win at Bible trivia over your in-laws, or give you some potential names for your kids, what benefit is there in looking at these chapters? As we shall see, Kings is very relevant for our lives. Paul said, "For whatever was written in former days [OT] was written for our instruction, that through endurance and through the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope" (Rom 15:4). In Kings, like other OT books, we will find instruction, encouragement, and hope. We need these blessings that we may endure faithfully. Kings belongs to the history section of the Old Testament, in a section that is referred to as the Former Prophets. It includes Joshua, Judges, Samuel, and Kings. In Joshua, God’s people take the Promised Land, as promised in the previous story of the patriarchs and the Exodus. In Judges, a number of interesting figures like Gideon, Deborah, and Sampson lead the nation, which covers about 400 years. Judges, as a whole, shows the nation in a downward spiral in need of a godly king. In 1 Samuel, we find the account of the prophet Samuel, and the beginning of the monarchy. Saul is the first monarch. His story is in 1 Samuel. David looms in the background of 1 Samuel, as the king to come. 2 Samuel is the story of David’s reign. The books of 1-2 Kings (originally one book) covers about 370 years of history.

His proper name is Mo Di \]. Mozi is arguably the first true philosopher of China known to us. He developed systematic analyses and criticisms of his opponents’ posi- tions and presented an array of arguments in support of his own philo- sophical views. His interest and faith in argumentation led him and his later followers to study the forms and methods of philosophical debate, and their work contributed significantly to the development of early Chinese philosophy.

  • Letters from U.S. President Millard Fillmore and U.S. Navy Commodore Matthew C. Perry to the Emperor of Japan (1852- 1853)
    Primary Source Document with Questions (DBQs) LETTERS FROM U.S. PRESIDENT MILLARD FILLMORE AND U.S. NAVY COMMODORE MATTHEW C. PERRY TO THE EMPEROR OF JAPAN (1852- 1853) Introduction In 1852, Commodore Matthew Calbraith Perry (1794-1858) was dispatched to Japan by U.S. President Millard Fillmore (1800-1874) in command of four warships, including two steam frigates. The squadron arrived in Uraga harbor, near the Tokugawa capital of Edo, on July 8, 1853. As expressed in the following letter from President Fillmore to the Japanese Emperor, delivered by Perry to the worried Tokugawa officials who greeted him, the United States was eager to break Japan’s “seclusion policy,” sign diplomatic and commercial treaties, and thus “open” the nation to the Western world. For the Japanese, who had carefully regulated overseas contacts since the seventeenth century and whose technology could not compare to that displayed by the American squadron, Perry’s arrival and President Fillmore’s letter were unwelcome and ominous, even if not entirely unexpected. Commodore Perry stayed in Uraga for fewer than ten days in 1853, withdrawing to the China coast with his ships. As he promised in his letter of July 14, 1853, however, he returned to Japan about six months later with a much larger and more intimidating fleet, comprising six ships with more than 100 mounted cannon. In March of 1854, the Tokugawa shogunate capitulated to all the American demands, signing the Treaty of Kanagawa with Perry. Selected Documents with Questions Letter from President Millard Fillmore and first letter from Commodore Matthew Perry from Narrative of the Expedition of an American Squadron to China and Japan, performed in the years 1852,1853, and 1854, under the Command of Commodore M.

  • Life of Imperialism: Thailand, Territory and State Transformation
    Life of Imperialism: Thailand, territory and state transformation Abstract: The paper argues that in territorial disputes before international courts between states that were formerly under colonial rule and semicolonialism, respectively, international courts favour the former. I study two cases – semicolonial Siam in Cheek v Siam arbitration (1897) and postcolonial Thailand in the Temple of Preah Vihear case (1962) – in their historical context to prove this. The critique of formalism here operates on two levels. First, in actual disputes the production of colonial stationary – for example, maps, photographs, and communiqué as demonstrable proofs of evidence – benefits states formerly under colonial rule. Second, in the Temple of Preah Vihear case, the ICJ pits, as it were, the French colonial history in Cambodia against Siamese semicolonial past. Arguably, the Cheek v Siam episode demonstrates nineteenth century Siam’s successful attempts to deploy politico- legal strategy to remain politically independent. By contrast, the ICJ in the Temple case defeats Siamese conceptions of shared sovereignty to confirm the continuing hegemony of modern geography and colonial cartography. The Cheek and Temple cases, respectively, among other untribunalized arm- twisting episodes typify Siam’s tryst with both semicolonial and postcolonial international law. Siam offers both epistemological lessons on history, past, and knowledge production and the possibility of prefiguring postcolonial Asian imperialism. Table of Content I. Introduction II.

  • He Is KING of KINGS Devotions for the Season of Lent 2018
    He is KING OF KINGS Devotions For the Season of lent 2018 First United Methodist Church Greensburg, Pennsylvania HE IS KING OF KINGS Introduction The Lord says, “The time is coming when I will choose as King a righteous descendant of David. That king will rule wisely and do what is right and just throughout the land. When he is King, the people of Judah will be safe, and the people of Israel will live in peace. He will be called ‘The Lord Our Salvation.’ (Jeremiah 23:5-6) About three centuries ago, Spaniards besieged a small French town, St. Quentin. The city walls were in ruins; fever and famine plagued the peo- ple. One day the Spaniards shot over the walls a shower of arrows to which were attached little slips of parchment promising that if they sur- rendered, their lives and property would be spared. The mayor of the town was a devout Huguenot (French Protestants who followed John Calvin’s reformed theology). For answer, he tied a piece of parchment to a javelin and hurled it back to the Spaniards. On the parchment was the message: “Regem habemus” -- “We have a king!” Christians also can say, “We have a King.” Jesus is our King. We belong to his Kingdom. He is not like other kings, however. He is not just another king. He is different. He is not only king but King of kings. He is not like the ancient Egyptian king, Rameses, whose arrogant motto was inscribed on temples still standing, “I am the greatest.” Jesus is not the kind of king, a savage tyrant, like the king of China who used millions of slaves to build the Great Wall of China, a wall so huge that it can be seen from the moon.

    HIS IMPERIAL MAJESTY, OONI ADEYEYE ENITAN BABATUNDE OGUNWUSI, NIGERIAN MONARCH OF THE YORUBA KINGDOM OF ILE-IFE MAKES SPECIAL VISIT TO U.S. Royal leader addresses the African Diaspora during a historic visit to the National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington, D.C. (excerpts) It is indeed a great honor to be here. Today marks another red letter day for me. A day I will never forget because I have been personally following the construction of this museum and what this museum stands for. It is a great honor for you to have given us this opportunity and this grace to welcome us very formally and warmly. This museum reflects what I stand for and my belief in this world. I seize every opportunity to express my belief that the greatest joy for anybody is the 'joy of origination'. If we don't invest in our past, so that we can know where we are from, the future will be very problematic; the future will be so bleak that we will not embrace one another in this world we love. It is very important for us to know our history and to uphold our history. It is very important for our heritage to be kept intact, because man must be kind to one another. We have to show ourselves love and compassion from our heritage. Obviously, people will from time to time offend one another; it is very normal. But we all belong to one, single, big, happy family, irrespective of our colour. I am very happy that this museum showcases the truth to the world, what happened in the past, the history of black people, how black people have suffered and sacrificed.
