The bible
The Bible is a collection of many books written over 2000 years by prophets and others. It is divided into the Old Testament, written before Christ, and the New Testament, written during and after Christ's life. The Old Testament contains the laws, prophets, and writings of ancient Israel. The New Testament contains the gospels about Jesus's life and teachings, Acts, letters from apostles, and Revelation. Christians use the Bible to help answer ethical and ultimate questions and find guidance, reading it privately and in church services.

This two-volume work by Rabbi Tovia Singer explores why Judaism does not accept Jesus as the Messiah by examining passages from the Jewish scriptures. The Rabbi argues that the core doctrines of Christianity are incompatible with the principles expressed by the prophets of Israel. Additionally, the book demonstrates how Christian translators manipulated and altered passages in the Hebrew scriptures to support the idea that Jesus is the promised Messiah. The work aims to thoroughly answer why Judaism rejects Christianity's claims by closely analyzing the original texts.
Colossians sunday school - week 11 - 12-24-2017
This document contains notes from a Sunday school class on Colossians 1:21-23 about the supremacy and sufficiency of Jesus Christ. The class was taught by Pastor Chuck Brooks in Room 204 at Grace Bible Baptist Church. The passages discuss how Jesus reconciled believers, who were once alienated and enemies of God due to wicked works, by presenting them holy before God through His death on the cross. Believers are instructed to continue in the faith that was preached to all people.
Try Jesus (SDA Bible Doctrines)
This document discusses the unity and reliability of the Bible. It notes that the Bible was written over 1600 years by 40 different authors yet presents a coherent message about God and his relationship with humanity. The Bible has transformed millions of lives through history by its message about Jesus Christ. The recurring theme of the Old Testament is the promised coming of the Messiah, which the New Testament shows was fulfilled through Jesus.

Johovah’S Witnesses
The document discusses the beliefs and practices of Jehovah's Witnesses and how their religious views conflict with elements of the standard second grade curriculum. Jehovah's Witnesses do not celebrate holidays, birthdays, or engage in political activities.

Adapting the curriculum raises concerns about accommodating the religious beliefs of students while ensuring they meet learning objectives.

Fr marco assignment to be printed
1. The biblical scriptures provide the basis for Jesus's resurrection, stating that Jesus foretold his death and resurrection, and that without the resurrection, Christian faith is in vain.
2. Traditional accounts affirm that Jesus's followers encountered him after his death and burial, establishing the early Christian church based on his resurrection.
3. While there are no known non-biblical contemporary accounts of Jesus's resurrection, the New Testament documents providing accounts were written by eyewitnesses before the death of the apostles. The resurrection demonstrates God's power over life and death and provides hope for human resurrection.
The Works of Jesus, Part 3
This document discusses how Jesus brings new beginnings to people. It describes 5 conflicts Jesus had with worn-out religion: 1) healing a paralytic, 2) calling Matthew the tax collector, 3) a dispute over fasting, 4) arguments over worship, and 5) healing on the Sabbath. Each conflict shows how Jesus welcomed outsiders and brought joy, forgiveness and healing, in contrast to the rigid rules and judgment of the religious establishment. The document urges people to abandon worn-out religion and join Jesus' movement instead.
Quiz 4 on Evidence for the Resurrection of Jesus
Quiz on Just the Facts: Evidence for the Resurrection of Jesus found at http://lessonsforus.com/category/proofs-of-jesus-ressurection/
Easter Sunday – Gospel Illustration John 20:1-9 – Resurrection Doubts
This document summarizes the stories of several individuals who set out to disprove Christianity but ultimately became convinced of its truth claims after examining the evidence. It describes how an attorney named Albert Roper conducted a legal investigation into the resurrection of Jesus Christ and concluded that the evidence supported it. 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. The document suggests these stories illustrate how attempts to destroy Christianity have instead led people to its historical truth
Samples of My Work
The document provides summaries of 5 books written by Pamela Orock. The first book "Discipleship" discusses what it means to be a follower of Jesus Christ and live according to his teachings. The second book "The Second Coming of Jesus Christ" talks about Jesus returning to earth to reward believers. The third book "Pillar of Truth" examines biblical texts to clarify doubts and misconceptions. The fourth book "Armor" teaches about putting on the armor of God to be protected spiritually. The fifth book "My Divine Destiny" deals with each individual's unique purpose and assignment from God.
En the trinity_is_not_a_biblical_belief
The Trinity is not explicitly mentioned in the Bible and was not a doctrine that Jesus or his followers preached. It was a doctrine that developed gradually over centuries through theological debates and controversies. Major Christian references acknowledge that the Trinity as it is understood today was not a part of early Christian teachings and was not fully formulated until the 4th century. The doctrine of the Trinity was established at the Council of Nicaea in 325 CE under Roman Emperor Constantine, rather than being derived directly from the Bible or teachings of Jesus.
Christianity jesus
This document outlines some of the key beliefs of Christianity. It notes that Christianity is based on the life and teachings of Jesus Christ as described in the New Testament of the Bible, which also includes the Old Testament originating from Judaism. Some of the early doctrines developed by church councils include beliefs that Jesus is both God and God's son, that the Bible contains the word of God, and that Jesus died and rose from the dead, proving his divinity. Christianity incorporates the Trinity, which believes God exists as three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The document also states that Christianity and Judaism were both founded in the Middle East and that Christians believe those who do not accept Jesus will not go to heaven
jehovah's witnesses
The Jehovah's Witnesses religion was founded in 1870 by Charles Taze Russell. They believe that Jehovah is the only true God and do not believe in the Trinity. They also believe that Jesus is Michael the Archangel and that only Jehovah's Witnesses will survive Armageddon. Members are expected to evangelize and are prohibited from celebrating holidays, serving in the military, or accepting blood transfusions.

Paul Aaron Himes has extensive education and teaching experience in biblical studies and ancient languages. He received his Ph.D. in New Testament from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in 2013, and currently teaches at Baptist College of Ministry and Baptist Theological Seminary. His academic publications include a book on foreknowledge and social identity in 1 Peter, as well as several articles in peer-reviewed journals on topics related to New Testament exegesis, theology, and textual criticism.
Many Infallible Proofs
1. The document discusses 12 historical facts accepted by modern biblical scholars about Jesus' death, burial, and reported resurrection appearances that demand an explanation.
2. It reviews failed 19th century "naturalistic explanations" from German rationalists for these facts, such as fraud, hallucination, and myth theories.
3. The document argues that the conservative explanation of a literal, physical resurrection of Jesus from the dead is the only one that fits with the historical facts and has withstood criticism, and that Jesus is truly alive today.
Arguments for the Existence of God: A Power Point
This document discusses several arguments for the existence of God: the cosmological argument that everything must have a cause points to God, the teleological argument that design in the universe points to a designer (God), the moral argument that objective morality requires a moral authority (God), and the ontological argument that God must exist by definition. It also discusses the argument from the inspiration of the Bible, that if the Bible is supernaturally inspired it proves God's existence, citing fulfilled prophecies, consistency, historical accuracy, and scientific accuracy as evidence of the Bible's inspiration.
Grade 8 chap 7 jeopardy
The document discusses key events and figures in early Christianity including Pentecost, the Council of Jerusalem, early Christian martyrs such as Saints Peter, Paul, Sebastian and more.

The document also addresses the authorship of the New Testament (Holy Spirit) and its 27 books, with the 14 letters of Paul being the oldest as epistles.
Clear and Present Danger
1) The document discusses false teachings about Jesus that were a threat in John's time and may still be present today. 2) In John's day, the heresy of Gnosticism was spreading and denying that Jesus was fully human and divine. 3) An "antichrist" is defined as anyone or any teaching that denies Jesus as the Christ/Son of God or denies his humanity. 4) Modern attitudes like religious tolerance or atheism could be considered antichrist if they deny Jesus' divinity. 5) Christians are advised to ground their faith in scripture and discern teachings based on what they say about God and Jesus.

Christology 5 (Resurrection)
Introductory presentation by Todd Linn, PhD on the bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ; addresses popular theories that attempt to explain away the resurrection; part one of two presentations on this topic.
Religion Essays
The document discusses different perspectives on defining religion. It notes that religion is difficult to define as definitions are either too narrow and exclude some belief systems, or too broad and vague. The document also discusses two common approaches students take in studying religion - a dogmatic approach that assumes religious truths can be known, and a skeptical approach that doubts religious truths can be known. It suggests the best way to study religion is through comparison and open-minded questioning of different belief systems.

Religion: Helping or Hindering Science?
Religion: Helping or Hindering Science?
By Paul H. Carr, web page www.MirrorOfNature.org
Institute of Religion in an Age of Science Conference,
Star Island off Portsmouth, NH
Monday, 4 August 2014, 3:30 PM
Is religion fostering or impeding the development of science? We have made progress since 1600, when the church burned Dominican Giordano Bruno at the stake in Rome for religious heresy and believing that the stars were like our sun with planets. In 2010, Dominican Francisco Ayala, a Spanish evolutionary biologist, won the $1.6 million Templeton Prize for affirming life’s spiritual dimension.
Nevertheless biblical literalists, who oppose Darwinian evolution, recently built the $26 million Creation Science Museum in Kentucky. It is located in the part of the United States known as the evangelical epicenter, which has the lowest family income and educational attainment of any region.
Main-line denominations have, on the other hand, fostered education and the development of science by founding colleges and universities. I will share other religious contributions, including the green-evangelical question: What car would Jesus drive?

Biblical Worldview - part 2
In order to understand the story of Scripture and read the world from the Bible’s perspective, we must “play the game” on the Bible’s field and follow the Bible’s
rules.
Instead of a pagan view of time and eternity (primarily based on Plato and Greek philosophy), the Bible presents time linearly. A simple timeline can be used to describe redemptive history in a two-age manner (“this age” and “the age to come”), separated by a climactic day called the Day of the LORD.
Philosophy and religion
Religion has developed naturally over time from early forms like animism and shamanism to more complex modern religions. Early humans may have practiced animal worship and had religious beliefs as early as 300,000 years ago based on burial sites. Religion progressed through stages including animism, polytheism, henotheism, and monotheism. The five major world religions today are Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism, with Judaism being one of the earliest monotheistic faiths based on teachings from the Torah and belief in one God.
Philosophy and religion
This document provides an overview of the development of religion from early human history through modern times in 3 sections. Section 1 discusses evidence of early religious ideas from 300,000 years ago and the development of organized religion with the advent of writing around 3200 BCE. Section 2 outlines the 7 major steps in the evolution of religion from Paleolithic times to modern rational religion. Section 3 identifies the 5 major world religions as Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism and provides brief descriptions of the origins and key beliefs and texts of each religion.
World Religion Lesson1
Belief systems and worldviews shape people's perspectives on reality and their place in the world. A worldview is a set of beliefs that guide how one understands the world, while belief systems are the stories people tell themselves to make sense of reality. Major belief systems include naturalism, pantheism, theism, spiritism, and polytheism. Religions typically incorporate worldviews and shape belief systems through their elements, which usually include a belief in supernatural powers, sacred texts or objects, rituals, concepts of sin and salvation, modes of worship, places of worship, and ideologies or liturgies. These elements help religions perpetuate their particular worldviews and beliefs over time.
Comparative religion part 5
The Unification Church was founded in 1954 in South Korea by Sun Myung Moon. It believes that God is both male and female and that humanity's fall originated from Eve's pre-marital relations. It teaches that Jesus was unable to complete his mission and a third Adam is needed to achieve full salvation. The Unification Church sees Rev. Moon as this third Adam and the Messiah, and he leads mass wedding ceremonies to unite his followers.

The document discusses the Egyptian concept of Kuklos Anankes (the inevitable cycle or circle of necessity) and how it relates to spiritual development. It describes ancient crypts and catacombs in Egypt and Chaldea where mystical teachings were practiced, focusing on the symbolism of serpents and conches. Esoteric students are guided to reflect on how these symbols represent the spiral nature of cosmic processes and individual evolution through multiple existences over cycles of rebirth.

ESR spectroscopy in liquid food and beverages.pptx
With increasing population, people need to rely on packaged food stuffs. Packaging of food materials requires the preservation of food. There are various methods for the treatment of food to preserve them and irradiation treatment of food is one of them. It is the most common and the most harmless method for the food preservation as it does not alter the necessary micronutrients of food materials. Although irradiated food doesn’t cause any harm to the human health but still the quality assessment of food is required to provide consumers with necessary information about the food. ESR spectroscopy is the most sophisticated way to investigate the quality of the food and the free radicals induced during the processing of the food. ESR spin trapping technique is useful for the detection of highly unstable radicals in the food. The antioxidant capability of liquid food and beverages in mainly performed by spin trapping technique.

Deep Software Variability and Frictionless Reproducibility
Deep Software Variability and Frictionless ReproducibilityUniversity of Rennes, INSA Rennes, Inria/IRISA, CNRS
The ability to recreate computational results with minimal effort and actionable metrics provides a solid foundation for scientific research and software development. When people can replicate an analysis at the touch of a button using open-source software, open data, and methods to assess and compare proposals, it significantly eases verification of results, engagement with a diverse range of contributors, and progress. However, we have yet to fully achieve this; there are still many sociotechnical frictions.
Inspired by David Donoho's vision, this talk aims to revisit the three crucial pillars of frictionless reproducibility (data sharing, code sharing, and competitive challenges) with the perspective of deep software variability.
Our observation is that multiple layers — hardware, operating systems, third-party libraries, software versions, input data, compile-time options, and parameters — are subject to variability that exacerbates frictions but is also essential for achieving robust, generalizable results and fostering innovation. I will first review the literature, providing evidence of how the complex variability interactions across these layers affect qualitative and quantitative software properties, thereby complicating the reproduction and replication of scientific studies in various fields.
I will then present some software engineering and AI techniques that can support the strategic exploration of variability spaces. These include the use of abstractions and models (e.g., feature models), sampling strategies (e.g., uniform, random), cost-effective measurements (e.g., incremental build of software configurations), and dimensionality reduction methods (e.g., transfer learning, feature selection, software debloating).
I will finally argue that deep variability is both the problem and solution of frictionless reproducibility, calling the software science community to develop new methods and tools to manage variability and foster reproducibility in software systems.

Deep Behavioral Phenotyping in Systems Neuroscience for Functional Atlasing a...
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) provides means to characterize brain activations in response to behavior. However, cognitive neuroscience has been limited to group-level effects referring to the performance of specific tasks. To obtain the functional profile of elementary cognitive mechanisms, the combination of brain responses to many tasks is required. Yet, to date, both structural atlases and parcellation-based activations do not fully account for cognitive function and still present several limitations. Further, they do not adapt overall to individual characteristics. In this talk, I will give an account of deep-behavioral phenotyping strategies, namely data-driven methods in large task-fMRI datasets, to optimize functional brain-data collection and improve inference of effects-of-interest related to mental processes. Key to this approach is the employment of fast multi-functional paradigms rich on features that can be well parametrized and, consequently, facilitate the creation of psycho-physiological constructs to be modelled with imaging data. Particular emphasis will be given to music stimuli when studying high-order cognitive mechanisms, due to their ecological nature and quality to enable complex behavior compounded by discrete entities. I will also discuss how deep-behavioral phenotyping and individualized models applied to neuroimaging data can better account for the subject-specific organization of domain-general cognitive systems in the human brain. Finally, the accumulation of functional brain signatures brings the possibility to clarify relationships among tasks and create a univocal link between brain systems and mental functions through: (1) the development of ontologies proposing an organization of cognitive processes; and (2) brain-network taxonomies describing functional specialization. To this end, tools to improve commensurability in cognitive science are necessary, such as public repositories, ontology-based platforms and automated meta-analysis tools. I will thus discuss some brain-atlasing resources currently under development, and their applicability in cognitive as well as clinical neuroscience.

Phenomics assisted breeding in crop improvement
As the population is increasing and will reach about 9 billion upto 2050. Also due to climate change, it is difficult to meet the food requirement of such a large population. Facing the challenges presented by resource shortages, climate
change, and increasing global population, crop yield and quality need to be improved in a sustainable way over the coming decades. Genetic improvement by breeding is the best way to increase crop productivity. With the rapid progression of functional
genomics, an increasing number of crop genomes have been sequenced and dozens of genes influencing key agronomic traits have been identified. However, current genome sequence information has not been adequately exploited for understanding
the complex characteristics of multiple gene, owing to a lack of crop phenotypic data. Efficient, automatic, and accurate technologies and platforms that can capture phenotypic data that can
be linked to genomics information for crop improvement at all growth stages have become as important as genotyping. Thus,
high-throughput phenotyping has become the major bottleneck restricting crop breeding. Plant phenomics has been defined as the high-throughput, accurate acquisition and analysis of multi-dimensional phenotypes
during crop growing stages at the organism level, including the cell, tissue, organ, individual plant, plot, and field levels. With the rapid development of novel sensors, imaging technology,
and analysis methods, numerous infrastructure platforms have been developed for phenotyping.
The use of Nauplii and metanauplii artemia in aquaculture (brine shrimp).pptx
Although Artemia has been known to man for centuries, its use as a food for the culture of larval organisms apparently began only in the 1930s, when several investigators found that it made an excellent food for newly hatched fish larvae (Litvinenko et al., 2023). As aquaculture developed in the 1960s and ‘70s, the use of Artemia also became more widespread, due both to its convenience and to its nutritional value for larval organisms (Arenas-Pardo et al., 2024). The fact that Artemia dormant cysts can be stored for long periods in cans, and then used as an off-the-shelf food requiring only 24 h of incubation makes them the most convenient, least labor-intensive, live food available for aquaculture (Sorgeloos & Roubach, 2021). The nutritional value of Artemia, especially for marine organisms, is not constant, but varies both geographically and temporally. During the last decade, however, both the causes of Artemia nutritional variability and methods to improve poorquality Artemia have been identified (Loufi et al., 2024).
Brine shrimp (Artemia spp.) are used in marine aquaculture worldwide. Annually, more than 2,000 metric tons of dry cysts are used for cultivation of fish, crustacean, and shellfish larva. Brine shrimp are important to aquaculture because newly hatched brine shrimp nauplii (larvae) provide a food source for many fish fry (Mozanzadeh et al., 2021). Culture and harvesting of brine shrimp eggs represents another aspect of the aquaculture industry. Nauplii and metanauplii of Artemia, commonly known as brine shrimp, play a crucial role in aquaculture due to their nutritional value and suitability as live feed for many aquatic species, particularly in larval stages (Sorgeloos & Roubach, 2021).

The binding of cosmological structures by massless topological defects
Assuming spherical symmetry and weak field, it is shown that if one solves the Poisson equation or the Einstein field
equations sourced by a topological defect, i.e. a singularity of a very specific form, the result is a localized gravitational
field capable of driving flat rotation (i.e. Keplerian circular orbits at a constant speed for all radii) of test masses on a thin
spherical shell without any underlying mass. Moreover, a large-scale structure which exploits this solution by assembling
concentrically a number of such topological defects can establish a flat stellar or galactic rotation curve, and can also deflect
light in the same manner as an equipotential (isothermal) sphere. Thus, the need for dark matter or modified gravity theory is
mitigated, at least in part.

Writings composed by some of Jesus' most orthodox devotees were incidentally found in 1945.These writings are presently known as the Gnostic Gospels. Scholars were stunned to find that these writings flipped around Bible teachings. In the meantime, physicists were finding a quantum universe that broke all of the standards of established science. Quantum science and the Gnostic Gospels offer another comprehension of God and our place in the universe.We see a world of isolated forms, yet Gnostic Christians and quantum physicists both found the universe is truly one interconnected entirety.

Check out the off world publications and its Gnostics teachings offer a new and important clarification for the world's issues. They give significance and purpose to our lives as they as they direct us out of the mayhem that overwhelms our world.
