up for you."
The Eucharist
Thesis: The Eucharist is a sign of Jesus' death, and how He gave himself up
for us, and how we experience Him through His body.
History of the Eucharist
The Eucharist is a Jewish Ritual of worship. It dates back to the
Last Supper, where Jesus celebrated a typical Jewish community meal with

Women In Religion
Number of words: 744 - Number of pages: 3.... used to the scriptures found in the Bible. This attitude labeled

silent in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak, but they
are commanded to be under obedience as also saith the law" (I Corinthians

Jay18: I am a really great poet, but all of the kids in my

respect for the artist inside
us all. I know you live in Michigan, and our family could

Who Was Jesus?
Number of words: 1389 - Number of pages: 6.... where that kind of love for one another
was hard to find because of the hardships inflicted upon the people.
I find some conflict in Jesus' actions, however. Jesus never (as far as I
know) says to ignore to commandments of God in the Hebrew Scriptures; however,
constantly breaks the Sabbath (Matt 12:13 and others), and gives VERY flimsy and
unconvincing explanations for it. I am not sure what his message was in those
actions. Perhaps he didn't care?
In general, Matthew was a good, entertaining story to read, with a very
dramatic ending, and great character development (a li .....

The Koran, The Bible, And Joseph
Number of words: 1193 - Number of pages: 5.... killed by his brothers, but
sold into Egypt. The Bible states Joseph was sold for twenty pieces of
silver while the Koran does not tell of a specific amount. After Joseph
was sold into Egypt, both accounts tell of how, his brothers had his
clothes stained with an animal's blood and told their father that Joseph
was devoured by a wild beast.
After Joseph was sold into Egypt he became very favored by his
master, the Pharaoh. In the Biblical account, Pharaoh so trusted Joseph
that he entrusted to him everything. The Bible records that Joseph was a
goodly person and well favored (Genesis .....

The Role Of Women In The Church
Number of words: 1913 - Number of pages: 7.... then a cautious consideration of passages relevant to
a particular issue must be undertaken. Traditions and customs that have
arisen after the Bible was written may thus be carefully scrutinized. Such
practices may or may not prove sound after comparison with scripture.
Before we discuss specific issues concerning women in worship, we
should consider principles derived from the relationship of Adam and Eve
as described in Genesis chapter one. The Apostle Paul frequently uses this
passage as a guideline when discussing women and women's issues. Genesis 1
verse 27 states: “So God c .....

Number of words: 1061 - Number of pages: 4.... to commit evil. The battle ground for the great confrontation between these two cosmic powers is the universe itself.

Number of words: 790 - Number of pages: 3.... meaning of life. In this paper, I will give many reasons why people saw as a deviant, but in reality, why he was not.
People in the days of had every reason to think was crazy and deviant. Look at how we view people in our society today who think they are the chosen one, who have been sent down from God or think they are some kind of God. Society looks at these people as crazy and as a threat to our everyday society. These people could just as easily be God's second son, but society sees these people just as they saw back then.
