HEART TUNING Similarly, he asks us not just to avoid adultery, but also to deal with the Robert Frost, the famous American poet, used to enjoy long walks root sin of lust (Matthew 5: 28). Jesus asks us to live by a very high in the New England woods with his friend Edward Thomas. Before ethical standard - not to retaliate (Matthew 5: 38-42), but to show love they would finish a walk, Thomas would sometimes berate himself for for all people, friends and enemies alike (Matthew 5: 43-48). choosing the wrong path. He always thought that if they had chosen a Chapter 5 ends with a surprising command: "Be perfect, therefore, different route, the walk would have been more scenic. Thinking of his as your heavenly Father is perfect." Such a command is shocking, friend's dilemma, Frost wrote a poem about choosing our paths in life. breathtaking. But it could be depressing, too. For who can be "perfect" It begins "Two roads diverged in a yellow wood. ." and it ends like like God? Scripture warns us that no human being ever achieves this: sinlessness or perfection (1 John 1: 8). So what is Jesus asking of us? In a dramatic way, he is clearly pointing out the ultimate goal of the I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Christian life. Unlike the Pharisees who tried to downsize the law of Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, and I - God to make it convenient and "user-friend1y," Jesus reminds us that I took the road less traveled by, God is a holy God, and He eXpects more. We are eXpected to imitate And that has made all the difference God (Ephesians 5: 1). One might say that life is a series of choices, and the path you Though we cannot do this through our own strength and will choose will, indeed, "make all the difference." power, we are promised divine aid through the Holy Spirit's help. Throughout our lives we are eXpected to be moving towards Nearly two thousand years ago, Jesus told us to choose our paths Godlikeness. Perfection or maturity is not something we completely carefully. He especially was concerned that we not choose according to achieve, but through God's power, we are enabled to become something "majority rule." Popular routes often lead to disastrous destinations, far greater than we imagine: Jesus warns. The most popular freeways do not lead to heaven, according to Jesus: Now to him who by the power at work within us is able to accomplish abundantly far more than all we can ask or Go in by the narrow gate. For the wide gate has a broad imagine, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus road that leads to disaster, and there are many people to all generations, forever and ever. Amen (Ephesians 3: going that way. The narrow gate and the hard road lead 20-2 1). New Revised Standard Version out into life, and only a few are finding it (Matthew As you read the rest of the Sermon on the Mount, with its very high 7:14). Phillips Translation demands for seXual purity, marriage fidelity, love for enemies, and so Jesus' great Sermon on the Mount (Matthew chapters 5, 6, and 7) is forth, remember that you will not achieve heaven through perfect a kind of road map to life.

PART 2 New Revised Standard Version LISTENING TO JESUS’ SERMON The Scribes were the close allies of the Pharisees. They devoted Jesus' Sermon on the Mount is one of the most significant sections their energies to studying and interpreting the Law of Moses. They of the Bible.

In towards Jesus' teaching since Jesus acted independently of their this one lesson Jesus describes the most important characteristics of the authority or sanction. Notice how Jesus, in the Sermon on the Mount, people who call themselves "Christians" - a term which means simply a contrasts his teaching with the teaching of the Scribes and the Pharisees. "Christ-follower" or "someone who wants to look and act like Jesus." Jesus says, "You have heard that it was said to the people in the old days.... But I say to you...." Jesus is challenging the familiar and As you read this remarkable sermon, imagine yourself among the traditional interpretations promoted by the Scribes and the Pharisees. five thousand in that original audience. Jesus is positioned on a great The tensions between Jesus and the Scribes and Pharisees will escalate sloping hill that sweeps down to serene waters of Lake Tiberias (also throughout Jesus' ministry, leading finally to the decision by the Scribes called the Sea of Galilee). The crowd is large because Jesus' reputation and Pharisees to work together to have Jesus arrested and eXecuted by is growing. The stories of his miraculous healings and his strange, new teachings are sweeping over the land. the Roman rulers. Summary Today, there is great eXcitement as people wonder what this great teacher of Israel will say. But Jesus knows that only a few in the The Sermon on the Mount is a summary of the key traits of the audience will try to put the Sermon on the Mount into practice. Note citizens of Jesus' kingdom. Let's consider a few of them: what he says at the end of the lesson: The Sermon begins with a set of "blessings" or "beatitudes." The “It is not everyone who keeps saying to me 'Lord, Lord' members of Jesus' kingdom, for eXample, will be noted for their poverty who will enter the kingdom of Heaven, but the man who of spirit or humble-mindedness; they will be acquainted with suffering; actually does my Heavenly Father's will” (Matthew 7:21). they will passionately long for justice and uprightness; they will be Phillips Translation compassionate and merciful, etc. Jesus then talks about the fact that followers of Jesus will be distinctive in the world.

Burke This dissertation analyzes theological concepts in silent moving pictures made for commercial distribution from 1902 to 1927, and examines how directors and scenarists sorted through competing belief systems to select what they anticipated would be palatable theological references for their films. A fundamental assumption of this study is that, the artistic and aesthetic pretensions of many silent-era filmmakers notwithstanding, directors generally made decisions in the conception, production and marketing of films primarily to maximize profits in a ruthlessly competitive environment.

  • Ascent of Mt. Carmel'
    PREFACE TO THE ELECTONIC EDITION This electronic edition (v 0.9) has been scanned from an uncopyrighted 1962 Image Books second edition of the Ascent and is therefore in the public domain. The entire text and some of the footnotes have been reproduced. Nearly 1000 footnotes (and parts of footnotes) describing variations among manuscripts have been omitted. Page number references in the footnotes have been changed to chapter and section where possible. This edition has been proofread once, but additional errors may remain. Harry Plantinga University of Pittsburgh [email protected] July 1, 1994. 6 ASCENT OF MOUNT CARMEL Treats of how the soul may prepare itself in order to attain in a short time to Divine union. Gives very profitable counsels and instruction, both to beginners and to proficients, that they may know how to disencumber themselves of all that is temporal and not to encumber themselves with the spiritual, and to remain in complete detachment and liberty of spirit, as is necessary for Divine union. ARGUMENT ALL the doctrine whereof I intend to treat in this Ascent of Mount Carmel is included in the following stanzas, and in them is also described the manner of ascending to the summit of the Mount, which is the high estate of perfection which we here call union of the soul with God. And because I must continually base upon them that which I shall say, I have desired to set them down here together, to the end that all the substance of that which is to be written may be seen and comprehended together; although it will be fitting to set down each stanza separately before expounding it, and likewise the lines of each stanza, according as the matter and the exposition require.

As I look back over the years at what God has had us doing at Just a Guy in the Pew, it has become obvious that His goal for our ministry is to help men become virtuous. Jesus didn’t ask us to be merely “good” men, no He called us to be great men. In order for this to happen we need to leave vice and selfishness behind and trade it in for virtue and selflessness. That is what will help us achieve the goal that Christ has for us all. That goal is holiness. In the words of St. Gregory of Nyssa, “The goal of a virtuous life is to become like God.” What is God? He is holy and that’s what we should hope to become as well. The Catechism defines virtue in this way: “A virtue is an habitual and firm disposition to do the good.

  • Mary Pickford
    Mary Pickford Also Known As: Mary Pickford Rogers, Gladys Smith, Gladys Louise Smith, Gladys Mary Smith Lived: April 8, 1892 - May 29, 1979 Worked as: company director, distributor, film actress, film company founding partner, producer, screenwriter, theatre actress Worked In: United States by Christel Schmidt Mary Pickford was born Gladys Smith in 1892 in Toronto, Canada. After her father was killed in an accident, Gladys became the family’s main breadwinner by performing in the theatre. She was seven years old. In fact, the stage became a family venture, as her younger siblings Lottie and Jack and even her mother took up the trade. But the drive and determination to be a star belonged solely to Gladys. In 1907, her ambition would take her to Broadway and famed producer-director David Belasco, who changed her name to Mary Pickford and gave her a part in “The Warrens of Virginia.” In 1909, when Pickford was between stage engagements, she approached director D. W. Griffith at the Biograph Company in New York and asked for work in moving pictures. She had no intention of working permanently in the new medium, but hoped the income would tide her over before she went back to Belasco and the stage. Pickford was intrigued with film acting, and before long she began to enjoy “posing” for motion pictures. She stayed with the Biograph Company, working as both an actress and writer from 1909 to 1911, leaving for a brief stint with the Independent Motion Picture Company (IMP), and later with Majestic Pictures Corporation. She returned to Griffith at Biograph in early 1912, finishing out the year with him.
