The document discusses the history and branches of Christianity. It provides information on:
1) The major branches of Christianity including Catholicism, Eastern Orthodoxy, and Protestantism. Protestantism originated from leaders like Martin Luther seeking to reform the Catholic Church.
2) Puritanism, a Protestant movement in the 16th-17th centuries that sought to "purify" the Church of England and advocated hard work, modesty, and moral living. Many Puritans migrated to America on the Mayflower.
3) How Puritanism influenced American values and traditions, establishing institutions like Harvard and contributing to ideals of individualism and equality.

Inhibitory Effect of Some Carbazides on Corrosion of Aluminium in Hydrochloric Acid and Sodium Hydroxide Solutions
The dissolution of aluminium in hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide solutions in the presence of semicarbazide, thiosemicar- bazide and sym.dipheny1carbazide as corrosion inhibitors has been studied using thermometric, weight-loss and polarization methods. The three methods gave consistent results. The higher inhibition efficiency of these compounds in acidic than in alkaline madia may be due to the less negative potential of aluminium in hydrochloric acid solution, favouring adsorption of the additive.The adsorption of these compounds were found to obey Frurnkin adsorption isotherm. Cathodic polarization measurements showed that these com- pounds are cathodic inhibitors and their adsorption in the double layer does not change the mechanism of the hydrogen evolution reaction. The results are analysed in terms of both molecular and cationic adsorption.

هذه الجماعة المشبوهة قد حذرمنها العلماء منذ مهدها وأول نشوؤها ولكن العواطف عند غالب المسلمين لم منعهم من التصديق وإن كان المتكلم بالدليل وأصدق لسانا ولهجة منهم ولكن أعمال هذه الجماعة المشبوهة أبت أن تستر لهم عرض وتغطي عليهم بليل لفأنكشفت للعيان ولمن كان ينكر حقائق معلومة من تالدين بالضرورة وفي هذه الفتنة أصبح الناس يخوضون في أعراض هذه الجماعة بعلم وبدون علم ولذ
A cursory reading of the New Testament will reveal that the Catholic Church does not have its origin in the teachings of Jesus or His apostles. In the New Testament, there is no mention of the papacy, worship/adoration of Mary (or the immaculate conception of Mary, the perpetual virginity of Mary, the assumption of Mary, or Mary as co-redemptrix and mediatrix), petitioning saints in heaven for their prayers, apostolic succession, the ordinances of the church functioning as sacraments, infant baptism, confession of sin to a priest, purgatory, indulgences, or the equal authority of church tradition and Scripture.
The Book of Joshua is the sixth book in the Hebrew Bible and the Old Testament, and is the first book of the Deuteronomistic history, the story of Israel from the conquest of Canaan to the Babylonian exile.

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.
Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…

Catholic worship is centred on the Eucharist, in

Blessed Virgin Mary in special regard. Catholic
beliefs concerning Mary include her Immaculate
Conception and bodily Assumption at the end of
her earthly life.
9. Orthodox 东正教
• History :
The Eastern Orthodox Churches trace their roots back
to the Apostles and Jesus Christ. Apostolic
succession established the seats of Patriarchy (for
example see the Greek Orthodox Patriarch of
Jerusalem). Orthodoxy reached its golden age
during the high point of the Byzantine Empire, taken
over by the Bulgarian Orthodox Church and the
Serbian Orthodox Church before it continued to
flourish in Russia after the Fall of Constantinople.
Numerous autocephalous churches have been
established in Eastern Europe and Slavic areas
Orthodox Church :
the second largest Christian denomination in the
world, with an estimated 300 million adherents mainly in
the countries of Belarus, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Georgia,
Greece, Macedonia, Moldova, Montenegro, Romania,
Russia, Serbia, and Ukraine, all of which are majority
Eastern Orthodox.
The Orthodox Church is composed of several self-
governing ecclesial bodies, each geographically and
nationally distinct but theologically unified.
10. Protestantism 新教主义

John Wycliffe, English reformer, the "Morning Star of the Reformation".
15th century
Jan Hus, Catholic Priest and Professor, father of an early Protestant
church
16th century
Martin Luther, church reformer, Father of Protestantism , theological
works guided those now known as Lutherans.
11. Protestantism 新教主义
Movements :
Fundamental principles :
Scripture Alone : The belief in the Bible as the supreme
source of authority for the church.
Justification by Faith Alone: The subjective principle of the
Reformation is justification by faith alone, or, rather, by free
grace through faith.
Universal Priesthood of Believers: The universal priesthood
of believers implies the right and duty of the Christian laity
not only to read the Bible in the vernacular, but also to take
part in the government and all the public affairs of the
Church.
12. C. Influence
• persecution ( 迫害 )of the Puritans, that brought about Puritan
migration to Europe (Holland) and America( the Plymouth Colony in
what is now southeastern Massachusetts).
Mayflower (五月花
号):
America:
1.Traditon: New England also established another American tradition—a
strain of often intolerant moralism.
2.American Values: American values such as individualism, hard work, and
the sense of equality.

Harvard( 哈佛学院 )founded in 1636, College of William and Mary( 威廉玛丽
学院 ) in 1693, and Yale( 耶鲁大学 ) in 1701.
13. Ⅲ Conclusion
