Three Early Christian Creeds (from https://www.ccel.org/creeds/creeds.txt)
The Apostles’ Creed
I believe in God the Father, Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth:
And in Jesus Christ, his only begotten Son, our Lord:
Who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary:
Suffered under Pontius Pilate; was crucified, dead and buried; He descended into hell;
The third day he rose again from the dead;
He ascended into heaven, and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty;
From thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead, I believe in the Holy Ghost,
I believe in the holy catholic church, the communion of saints,
The forgiveness of sins,
The resurrection of the body,
And the life everlasting. Amen.
The Nicene-Constantinopolitan Creed (A.D. 381)
I believe in One God,
The Father Almighty,
Maker of Heaven and Earth,
And of all things visible and invisible.
And in one Lord Jesus Christ,
The Son of God,
The Only-Begotten, begotten of the Father before all ages;
Light of Light;
True God of True God;
Begotten, not made;
Of one essence with the Father,
By Whom all things were made;
Who for us men and for our salvation
Came down from Heaven,
And was incarnate of the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary,
And became man.
And He was crucified for us under Pontius Pilate,
And suffered, and was buried.
And the third day He arose again,
According to the Scriptures,
And ascended into Heaven,
And sits at the right hand of the Father;
And He shall come again with glory to judge the living and the dead;
Whose Kingdom shall have no end.
And in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the Giver of Life,
Who proceeds from the Father;
Who with the Father and the Son together is worshipped and glorified;
Who spoke by the prophets.
And in One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church.

I acknowledge one baptism for the remission of sins.
I look for the resurrection of the dead,
And the life of the world to come.
The “Athanasian” Creed
Whosoever will be saved, before all things it is necessary that he hold the catholic faith;
Which faith except every one do keep whole and undefiled, without doubt he shall perish everlastingly.
And the catholic faith is this: That we worship one God in Trinity, and Trinity in Unity;
Neither confounding the persons nor dividing the substance.
For there is one person of the Father, another of the Son, and another of the Holy Spirit.
But the Godhead of the Father, of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit is all one, the glory equal, the majesty
coeternal.
Such as the Father is, such is the Son, and such is the Holy Spirit.
The Father uncreated, the Son uncreated, and the Holy Spirit uncreated.
The Father incomprehensible, the Son incomprehensible, and the Holy Spirit incomprehensible.
The Father eternal, the Son eternal, and the Holy Spirit eternal. ...

Hello,I have a total of 11 Discussion Boards I need completed by T.docxjeniihykdevara
Hello,
I have a total of 11 Discussion Boards I need completed by Thursday, February 25 (48 hours). Each Discussion Board should be between 2 or 2.5 paragraphs! I'm willing to pay up to $5 USD per paragraph for a total of $90- $110 total for all Discussion Boards! The assignments are really opinionated versus that of a research paper.
Here are the assignments:
Discussion Board #1:
Topic: Introduction, the Trinity, One God and Divine Revelation, World Religions
What is the Holy Trinity? Christian churchgoers hear the words of Christ proclaimed: "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them all that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, to the close of the age." (Matthew 28:29-20) Scripture refers regularly to God as Father (Mt. 5:58)., as Son (Heb. 1:1-3), and Spirit (Rom. 5:50). Yet Scripture also tells us that God is One: (Deut. 6:4). In these passages, God is telling us about Who He is. We will learn over the semester what Catholic tradition, and other Christians, have believed about the mystery of the Trinity--and its implications for our life of faith and life in society.
One thing that tells us about the difference of the Christian God, is that He upholds a world that has a history. Time moves forward in a line, headed for a final consummation where He comes again, raises the dead, and ushers in an eternal kingdom. We'll look into key Christian themes such as original sin and our redemption in Christ, and the Biblical evidence for the Trinity, over the next few weeks. Here, I want to distinguish the Christian One God clearly from other religious portraits. This will help us in studying what it means for One God to also be Three.
Assignment:
What particularly interested you, or maybe seems in need of further explanation or clarification, in this week's material?
Discussion Board #2:
Topic: Monotheism; the Jewish Bible; Divine Fatherhood, Word, Wisdom, and Spirit
What strikes me most about Judaism is that it claims to be God acting in history. This religion is specifically not local, and it is very particular. The Lord God chooses a man, to leave his home and beget a nation, which will be the witness of the Lord's ways to the rest of humanity. The Lord God reveals Himself to humanity, and calls out a chosen people as His bride and witness. The idea is that all of humanity can know who He is. He is His Word that He reveals to Moses on Mount Sinai. This is a religion of Divine self-disclosure.
Also, the Scriptures show that the One God acts and is manifest in ways that seem like distinct persons. God watches Israel like a Father and is husband to Israel as a bride (but He does NOT have a 'consort goddess,' He is the One God). He makes Israel a family through a series of covenants by which the two bind themselves to each other irrevocably. In the words of my colleague Scott Hahn, the Lord gives Israel kinship by covenant.
These slides are intended to explain Christmas to those who may be unfamiliar, such as international students. The perspective is from the Bible. Good for presentations.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
2. Introduction
• The nature of the Holy Trinity is
not an abstract idea, or a belief
that has no impact on our lives.
• Chrsit revealed mysteries to us,
only to practice and live them.
• When the Orthodox Church
believes, She practices and
lives
Liturgies and Praises
3. Importance of the Mystery of the Trinity
• Makes Salvation Real
If the Christian doctrine of the Trinity is not true, then Jesus
Christ is not Who He said He was, namely, God the Savior.
If Christ was not fully God, then He could not render sufficient
satisfaction for our sins by virtue of His death on the cross.
The Trinity grounds our salvation in the unchangeable reality of
the Godhead.
• This is why many of our Fathers sacrificed their lives to
keep the Faith!
4. Definition of the Trinity
• The doctrine that there is one only and true God, but in the unity of
the Godhead there are three co-eternal and co-equal Persons, the
same in substance but distinct in subsistence [i.e. being or
existence].
Consubstantial: Share same divine essence - of one being
• In God there are no three individuals alongside of, and separate
from, one another, but only personal self-distinctions within the
Divine essence.
• The Trinity is composed of three united Persons without separate
existence—so completely united as to form one God. The divine
nature subsists in three distinctions: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
• One God in three persons, each of these persons is distinct, while
all three persons indivisibly united. This is the mystery!
5. Three Key Elements
• Oneness (unity)
• Three distinct persons (Hypostasis)
Hypostasis: “that which stands beneath” = essence of a being
• Divinity of each person
6. Distinct Works of the Three Hypostasis
• We attribute distinctive works to
each Person of the Holy Trinity,
Creation is attributed to the
Father
Redemption, to the Son, and
Sanctification to the Holy Spirit
• but all Their works are made by
God, both One and Three.
• Father is the Source of all,
beget the Son, Sent forth the
Holy Spirit.
• That is why, when we thank
God for everything He has
done for us, we must thank
God the Father, God the Son
and God the Holy Spirit.
7. Analogies
• We may compare the
mystery o1the Holy Trinity
with the sun:
the sun is in the sky and
produces light and heat
Light and heat are not
distinct from the sun.
• Human beings: Then God
said, “Let Us make man in Our
image, according to Our
likeness” Gen 1:26
Flesh
Soul (mind)
Spirit
8. Biblical Evidence for the Holy Trinity
• Evidence for oneness
• Evidence for threeness
• Evidence for tri-unity
• Evidence of equal authority
and divinity
9. Evidence for Oneness
• Deuteronomy 6:4
“Hear, O Israel: The LORD our
God, the LORD is one.
• 1 Corinthians 8:4-6
there is no other God but one. For
even if there are so-called gods,
whether in heaven or on earth (as
there are many gods and many
lords), yet for us there is one God,
the Father, of whom are all things,
and we for Him; and one Lord
Jesus Christ, through whom are
all things, and through whom we
live.
• James 2:19
You believe that there is one God.
You do well. Even the demons
believe and tremble!
10. Evidence for Threeness
• The Holy Spirit is God
"But Peter said, “Ananias, why
has Satan filled your heart to lie to
the Holy Spirit and keep back part
of the price of the land for
yourself? ...You have not lied to
men but to God. Acts 5:3-4
“Do you not know that you are the
temple of God and that the Spirit
of God dwells in you?”
1Corinthians 3:16
11. Evidence for Tri-unity
• “For there are three that bear
witness in heaven: the Father, the
Word, and the Holy Spirit; and
these three are one.” 1 John 5:7
• "Go therefore and mahe disciples
of all the nations, baptizing them
in the name of the Father and of
the Son and of the Holy Spirit,"
Matthew 28:19
• "The grace of the Lord Jesus
Christ, and the love of God, and
the communion of the Holy Spirit
be with you all. Amen."
2Corinthians 13:14
12. Evidence for Equal Authority
• The Son
"And Jesus came and spoke to
them, saying, “All authority has
been given to Me in heaven and
on earth." Matthew 28:18
• The Holy Spirit
"Therefore I say to you, every sin
and blasphemy will be forgiven
men, but the blasphemy against
the Spirit will not be forgiven
men." Matthew 12:31
