Who is Jesus?
1. The document discusses evidence for Jesus' existence from both within and outside the New Testament, including Roman and Jewish historians.
2. It examines Jesus' claims to be the Son of God and Messiah, arguing that his teachings centered on himself and that he performed miracles.
3. The document asserts that Jesus' resurrection, fulfillment of prophecies, and historical character provide evidence that he was who he claimed to be - the Son of God.
6 Suffering Of Christ
The suffering of Jesus Christ allows Christians to relate to God on a more human level and helps them deal with pain and suffering. When facing his own death, Jesus showed real human emotions like fear and weakness in praying to God to consider another way without requiring such suffering. However, Jesus accepted that it was God's will for him to suffer crucifixion to atone for humanity's sins. His scourging and crucifixion involved mockery, beating, and nailing to a cross until his death, establishing the key Christian beliefs of atonement and redemption through Jesus' sacrifice.

It includes a memory verse, scripture reading, and discussion questions about the events. The application emphasizes that Jesus' resurrection gives believers new life and hope through faith in Him.
The mysteries of jesus by ruqaiyyah waris maqsood
R E v o L u T1 o N A ry or pacifist ? Jewish scholar, or liberator from the Law? For two thousand years few subjects have provoked more controversy than the life of the blessed Messiah of Nazareth. In our own time, discoveries such as the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Nag Hammadi Gospels, and the still unresolved mystery of the Shroud of Turin, have made the debate more lively and more fascinating than everbefore.
In this book, a leading British Muslim scholar examines the most recent research and its implications for Jesus scholarship and for the churches, as they seek to reinterpret Jesus for the new age. Her conclusions are that the historical Jesus emerges as a figure far more glorious than the Christ defined in the formulas of medieval Christianity', which were influenced heavily by Greek philosophy and mystery religions whose beliefs hold little appeal for the modern mind. Ideas once blasted as'heresies’ now seem to have preserved the authentic teachings of the Galilean more fullv than the official orthodoxies. Maqsood shows that the Jesus who is now being reclaimed in this way is a figure who is not a stumbling-block to dialogue, but can be affirmed by Jews and Muslims, as well as by Christians anxious to uphold historicallv credible accounts of the saintly figure at the centre oftheir faith.
Few Muslims have meditated deeply on Christian origins. This groundbreaking book shows how modern Christian and Muslim scholarship is drawing together, bringing hope of future reconciliation and dialogue between the two largest world faiths.

The document is a sermon about Jesus calling Levi, a tax collector, to be his disciple. It discusses how Jesus ate with tax collectors and sinners, which upset the Pharisees. Jesus explains that he has come to call sinners to repentance, not those who think they are righteous. The sermon encourages believers to be receptive to change like David and Paul when proven wrong, and discusses how God works with both religious people and sinners.

The Promise of the Cross
This document discusses the third statement Jesus made on the cross, "Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with me in paradise." It describes how Jesus said this in response to one of the criminals crucified alongside him, who repented and asked Jesus to remember him. While the other criminal was hard-hearted, this man acknowledged his just punishment but saw that Jesus did not deserve death. Jesus assured the repentant criminal that through faith in him, he would be with Jesus in paradise that very day despite his impending death. The promise of salvation through Christ alone is available to all who humbly trust in him.

Church Sermon: So What If Jesus is Alive?
The document discusses the resurrection of Jesus based on Luke 24:1-12. It describes how after Jesus was crucified, his disciples were dismayed and in hiding. However, on Easter Sunday, everything changed when the women discovered Jesus' tomb was empty.

Jehovah's Witnesses have several core religious beliefs:
- They worship God, whose name is Jehovah, and believe Jesus is God's son but not part of a holy trinity.
- They do not believe in hell or that humans have a spirit - only 144,000 people will go to heaven while others will live eternally on Earth.

The document then discusses Jehovah's Witnesses' views on salvation, disfellowshipping, their organizational structure, and prohibitions on blood transfusions. It also summarizes interviews with two Jehovah's
Why is the resurrection so important?
The resurrection of Jesus Christ is crucially important for Christianity for three key reasons:
1) It validates Jesus' identity as the Son of God and his sacrificial death on the cross for humanity's sins. Without the resurrection, Christianity has no foundation.
2) Multiple historical evidences point to the resurrection actually occurring, including Jesus' burial in a known location, the empty tomb discovered by women before the disciples, and numerous reported appearances of the risen Jesus to individuals and groups.
3) The lives and martyrdoms of Jesus' disciples, who went from fearful men to bold proclaimers of the gospel despite facing severe persecution, can only reasonably be explained by them experiencing the risen

It also tells the story of how journalist Frank Morison intended to write a book disproving the resurrection but instead wrote one arguing in its favor after his own investigation. Similarly, student Josh McDowell accepted a challenge to intellectually examine Christianity but eventually became a Christian after failing to refute the proof of Christ and the resurrection.

This message is Part 6 of the series “The Miracle Of Mercy” by Pastor Chuck Bernal. In this message Pastor Chuck talks about how we can help people move “From Misery To Mercy”.
One of the most important things we can do as Christians is to pass on the mercy we have received from God to others, especially in tangible acts of kindness and compassion. Mercy is unearned kindness - literally "LOVE IN ACTION".

The New Reformation for the 21st Century
We are in desperate need of a new reformation in the 21st century. Why?
Because we have a culture of Christians that do not know Christ or act like him. According to Barna, in a typical week 41% of the adults attending Christian Churches are not born again. Most of those people have been attending Christian Churches for years without really understanding the foundations of the Christian faith and its personal implications (George Barna, March 5, 2001).
The American Church according to nine out of ten pastors is spiritual immature and biblically illiterate.
We are failing.
We focus on building projects, finances and membership drives—everything except Jesus. Itʼs time to open the door and give him His Church back. Itʼs time to emerge from our expensive facades—the outward appearances we maintain to conceal a less pleasant reality—and let Him back in.
Itʼs time to ask ourselves a simple question:
If what we’ve been doing in church has produced such depressing results, why do we continue doing it this way…our way?

Joseph G. Smith gave a presentation on effective church leadership for the 21st century. He emphasized that church leaders must focus on advancing the mission of making disciples. Five essential ingredients for leadership were identified: vision, industry, perseverance, service, and discipline. Leaders need a vision for change, must work hard to implement their vision, persevere despite opposition, serve others humbly, and maintain spiritual discipline. The presentation highlighted that Seventh-day Adventists were called to fulfill God's end-time mission as revealed in prophecy. Effective leadership is needed to keep the church focused on its purpose.

Preaching With Passion!
This document discusses preaching with passion and the importance of having compassion. It argues that Jesus was the ultimate example of passionate preaching, as he was "moved with compassion" for people eight times in the gospels. To preach effectively, one must have the right heart, head, and harvest. The right heart means having compassion, the right head means having the right understanding from Scripture, and the right harvest means one's preaching will produce fruit if the heart and head are aligned with God. The document concludes by emphasizing that we should learn from Jesus' example of powerful, purposeful, and passionate preaching motivated by compassion for others.
Christianity Slides
Christianity began in Judea, which was controlled by the Roman Empire. Jesus Christ was born in Judea and taught a new form of Judaism emphasizing God's love. He had twelve apostles as disciples. Some Jews believed Jesus was the messiah, but Roman authorities had him crucified. Christians believe Jesus resurrected three days later and forgave sins, allowing people to reach heaven. The apostles spread Christianity despite persecution, and it grew until becoming the Roman Empire's official religion under Constantine. Christianity then diversified into branches like Catholicism and Protestantism.

Cosmic Religion of the Future
The sermon discusses how Albert Einstein envisioned a "cosmic religion of the future" that avoids dogma and sees the natural and spiritual as a meaningful unity. It then provides examples of life-changing spiritual experiences in three individuals - St. Paul, John Newton who wrote "Amazing Grace," and scientist Francis Collins. Collins describes how reading C.S. Lewis' "Mere Christianity" changed his view from militant atheism to belief in God after considering arguments for morality and design in the universe. The sermon advocates being prepared to share one's spiritual beliefs gently and respectfully like the Methodist pastor who listened to Collins' doubts.

Christ Unbound: Lord of All
The pastor argues that Jesus Christ cannot be bound by human ideas or institutions. The resurrection shows that Jesus is Lord of all people, not just one group. Jesus is calling believers out of religious bondage and into new life. Jesus accepts people of every nation and is not limited by human categories, as shown when he saved the Gentile Cornelius despite Peter's objections. Christ's resurrection power cannot be contained by any church, theology, or political group. Jesus is Lord of all.
Skepticsquest
Josh McDowell was seeking meaning, purpose, happiness and freedom in life. He explored religion, education and prestige but did not find what he was looking for. He was intrigued by a group of Christian students who seemed different. They challenged him to examine the evidence for Christianity intellectually. Through his research, McDowell concluded that the New Testament documents were historically reliable and that the resurrection of Jesus was well-established. However, becoming a Christian challenged his ego and will. After much struggle, on December 19, 1959 McDowell prayed to accept Jesus Christ as his savior and lord, though he initially felt sick to his stomach with doubt about his decision.

my great love for jesus led me to islam
The document describes the author's journey from Catholicism to Islam. As a child, he had an intense love for Jesus but struggled to understand his crucifixion. He questioned the power of God and engaged in paranormal activities with his family. In high school, he started researching other religions and became convinced by the authenticity of the Quran and the logical nature of Islam's doctrines compared to Christianity. He converted to Islam and found that it positively affected his life.
my great love for jesus led me to Islam
The document discusses the author's journey from Christianity to Islam. As a child, he was deeply religious but had questions about Jesus' crucifixion that remained unanswered. Experiences with fortunetellers and paranormal activities as a youth further shook his faith. In the US for college, he witnessed Christians steal from a man, damaging his view of religion. Still seeking answers, he eventually converted to Islam after finding its teachings on monotheism and the prophets, including Jesus, to be more coherent.

Deity of Christ 2013
This document discusses Peter Kreeft and Ronald Tacelli's chapter on the divinity of Christ from their book "The Pocket Handbook of Christian Apologetics". It examines Jesus' claims to be the Son of God and divine, arguments for his divinity like his trustworthiness, and reasons people may deny his divinity like finding the claims hard to accept. It also references passages where Jesus calls himself the Son of God and claims to forgive sins, save from death, and return to judge all people.
THE CRUCIFIX – A POWERFUL SYMBOL ... EVEN FOR MODERN DAY UNITARIANS
This document discusses the symbolism and meaning of the crucifix for modern Unitarians. It provides perspectives from various Christian traditions that see the crucifixion of Jesus as representing self-sacrifice and calling believers to follow that example. The document also discusses esoteric interpretations of Jesus' life events as archetypes for spiritual development, and views Jesus as providing a way to be freed from selfishness and reunited with the divine. Overall, the crucifix is presented as a powerful symbol of sacrificial love that still resonates today.
Jesus himself - andrew murray
This document is a summary of a sermon by Rev. Andrew Murray on Jesus revealing Himself to His disciples. It discusses four stages in the Christian life: 1) Sadness at thinking Jesus is dead, 2) Slowness to believe He is alive, 3) Experiencing a burning heart through fellowship, and 4) Knowing Jesus personally through revelation. The key is moving from experiences to truly knowing Jesus Himself. Christ reveals Himself to those who have given up everything to follow Him completely with God as their all and everything.
PURSUE legacy TRUTH ayala 445pm 2021 MARCH.pptx
This document discusses pursuing godly legacies and passing on faith to future generations. It encourages pursuing truth, life, and building a faith community. Examples are given of Jonathan Edwards, who left a legacy of over 1,400 descendants including leaders in government, education and the church, compared to Max Jukes whose descendants struggled with crime and poverty. The document stresses living faithfully each day to influence future generations in a multigenerational legacy for God's kingdom.
Belief about deity revision ppt
Christians believe in one God who exists in three persons: the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. They believe God is eternal, omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent. Christians believe in God for reasons such as ontological, cosmological, teleological, and moral arguments as well as religious experiences, miracles, and their upbringing. They believe Jesus was the Son of God and performed miracles such as calming storms, healing people, and resurrecting Lazarus to show he had power over nature, could heal people, and overcome death himself through his own resurrection.
Does god exist_presentation
This document provides an overview of arguments for and against the existence of God. It discusses the complexity of the universe and life as an argument for a creator or designer. It also considers scientific explanations for the origin and laws of the universe as arguments against the need for God. The document outlines beliefs about God in major religions and considers whether an all-powerful God could exist given the amount of suffering in the world. It presents counterarguments that God's existence cannot be proven and that religious beliefs may require suspending logical thought.
Divine truths revealed
Ariela Solsol had a spiritual experience in 1967 at age 15 where she felt overwhelmed with fatigue and lost consciousness. She describes her spirit lifting out of her body and ascending higher. She felt freed from physical confinement and sensed a comforting protection as her spirit journeyed through the heavens. The experience revealed to her spiritual truths about the afterlife and God's kingdom that she later shares in her book.
Commitment to Witness
1) The sermon discusses the need for Christians to have total commitment to sharing their faith, using examples like a boy who swam to raise money for charity and a missionary who spent decades in difficult conditions spreading the gospel.
2) It notes that many Christians are not committed to witnessing for Christ, for reasons like fear, lack of power, or not caring about the lost.
3) The pastor urges Christians to pray for boldness from the Holy Spirit to overcome these obstacles and have courageous conversations about their faith.
Who Is Jesus?
Jesus asks his disciples who people say he is. They respond that some say he is John the Baptist, Elijah, or another prophet. Jesus then asks the disciples who they say he is. Peter answers that Jesus is the Christ. Jesus then warns them not to tell others about his true identity.
The Spirit of Nazareth - Session #3
The document summarizes the life journey of St. Augustine from scoundrel to saint. It describes his early life of sin and embracing heresy before his conversion at age 32. After his conversion, he abandoned his career in rhetoric, lived as a monk for three years in prayer and meditation on scripture. He was later ordained as a priest and eventually became the bishop of Hippo, where he remained until his death. The three stages of the interior spiritual life - purgative, illuminative, and unitive - are discussed in the context of Augustine's transformation.

How does God guide us?
God guides believers in several ways:
1. Through his written word, the Bible, which reveals God's general will and commands.
2. By speaking to us through his Holy Spirit, often through thoughts, feelings, and impressions that must be tested against Scripture.
3. By giving us strong desires that align with his purpose according to the Bible.
4. Through using common sense and wisdom.
5. By seeking counsel from other Christians.
6. Through circumstances and opening or closing doors according to his plan.
Why and how do I pray?
Christian prayer involves developing a personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ with the help of the Holy Spirit. It is important for communication with God, as modeled by Jesus, and can change both the person praying and external situations. God answers prayers according to His will and does not always respond how we expect, since He knows what is best. Effective prayer involves adoration, confession, thanksgiving, and supplication. The Bible encourages praying regularly and consistently through challenges as well as agreement with other believers.
How can I be sure of my faith?
The document discusses the experience of finding faith and a relationship with God. It describes feelings of hope replacing despair, the ability to forgive, and feeling God's presence filling a void. Several Bible verses are referenced that discuss beliefs around salvation, eternal life, and God being with believers always. The document advocates openly confessing that Jesus is Lord and turning away from wrongdoing to receive forgiveness and God's Holy Spirit.
Why did Jesus die?
1) The document discusses why Jesus died, noting that all humans have sinned and fall short of God's glory.
2) It states that the penalty for sin is death, and that Jesus died on the cross to save humanity from sin and offer eternal life.
3) The conclusion is that Jesus' death on the cross was the solution and answer to humanity's sin problem, providing forgiveness and healing to all who believe in him.
How can I resist evil?
The document discusses resisting evil and the devil based on passages from the Bible. It describes the devil as a deceiver who tempts humans to sin and doubts God. The devil's goal is to steal, kill and destroy. However, Christians have power over the devil through faith in God and by putting on spiritual armor like truth, righteousness, salvation and prayer. Believers can stand against the devil and attack his strongholds through prayer and godly action.
Why and how do I pray?
Christian prayer involves developing a relationship with God through Jesus Christ. It is communication with our heavenly Father, and is important because Jesus prayed and prayer changes both ourselves and situations. Prayer should be done privately and sincerely from the heart. God does not always answer prayer immediately, as factors like unconfessed sin, disobedience, and wrong motives can interfere. While God's reasons are not always clear, we should continue trusting in him even when we don't understand. The Bible recommends praying regularly through practices like adoration, confession, thanksgiving, and supplication.

HCL Notes und Domino Lizenzkostenreduzierung in der Welt von DLAU
Webinar Recording: https://www.panagenda.com/webinars/hcl-notes-und-domino-lizenzkostenreduzierung-in-der-welt-von-dlau/
DLAU und die Lizenzen nach dem CCB- und CCX-Modell sind für viele in der HCL-Community seit letztem Jahr ein heißes Thema. Als Notes- oder Domino-Kunde haben Sie vielleicht mit unerwartet hohen Benutzerzahlen und Lizenzgebühren zu kämpfen. Sie fragen sich vielleicht, wie diese neue Art der Lizenzierung funktioniert und welchen Nutzen sie Ihnen bringt.

Wir erklären Ihnen, wie Sie häufige Konfigurationsprobleme lösen können, die dazu führen können, dass mehr Benutzer gezählt werden als nötig, und wie Sie überflüssige oder ungenutzte Konten identifizieren und entfernen können, um Geld zu sparen. Es gibt auch einige Ansätze, die zu unnötigen Ausgaben führen können, z. B. wenn ein Personendokument anstelle eines Mail-Ins für geteilte Mailboxen verwendet wird. Wir zeigen Ihnen solche Fälle und deren Lösungen. Und natürlich erklären wir Ihnen das neue Lizenzmodell.
Nehmen Sie an diesem Webinar teil, bei dem HCL-Ambassador Marc Thomas und Gastredner Franz Walder Ihnen diese neue Welt näherbringen. Es vermittelt Ihnen die Tools und das Know-how, um den Überblick zu bewahren. Sie werden in der Lage sein, Ihre Kosten durch eine optimierte Domino-Konfiguration zu reduzieren und auch in Zukunft gering zu halten.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).
