...economic systems over which they have no control. It is an invitation to allow our own personal and communal humiliation to be seen in the context of Bartimaeus's faith in Jesus as the Christ. The Story And they came to Jericho. And as he was leaving Jericho with his disciples and a great multitude, Bartimaeus, a blind beggar, the son of Timaeus, was sitting by the roadside. And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out and say, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!" And many rebuked him, telling him to shut up. But he cried out all the more, "Son of David, have mercy on me!" And Jesus stopped and said, "Call him." And they called the blind man, saying to him, "Take heart; rise, he is calling you." And throwing off his mantle he sprang up and came to Jesus. And Jesus said to him, "What do you want me to do for you?" And the blind man said to him, "Master, let me receive my sight." And Jesus said to him, "Go your way; your faith has made you well." And immediately he received his sight and followed him on the way. Learning the Story Verbal Threads "Jericho." The first episode is tied together by Jericho: "He came to Jericho"/"as he was leaving Jericho" (vs. 46). "Cried out…'Son of David, have mercy on me.' " The first sentences in the episodes of Bartimaeus's crying out for Jesus have this extensive verbal thread (vss. 47-48). 69 Story Journey: An Invitation to the Gospel...

...the will. A definition provided by William Shed in his work Dogmatic Theology states that, “Pelagius affirmed the freedom of the will, which for him meant that a person always has the ability to choose good as well as evil. That is, for Pelagius the power of contrary choice is essential to free moral agency. According to Pelagius, a person is always ‘able to sin and able not to sin’ (posse peccare et posse non peccare). Naturally, such a view of freedom carries implications for the doctrine of original sin. Pelagius denied that human beings derive a corrupt nature from Adam; if they did then they would not be responsible for their sins. Rather, Adam’s transgression served merely as a bad example to his descendants.” While this is a good summary of the Pelagius views, there is a theological aspect that needs a bit more defining, and accordingly the definition provided by...

...Mythological and Biblical Characters The Titans According to Greek mythology, the Titans were a race of primordial, powerful deities that ruled during the legendary Golden Age. The Titans were created by Gaea and her surrounding Uranus (Heaven), who embraced her strongly with his starry mantle and they became the first divine couple of the World.

Keith E Whittington, constitutionalism [5] * Constitutionalism = the constraining of government in order to better effectuate the fundamental principles of the political regime. i.e. A system of effective restrains on governmental action. * Constitution (often) = the written document that formalizes the framework of government * => Constitutionalism should be distinguished from the mere possession of a constitution * Written constitutions may provide few effective constraints on government or may be ignored, and governments may be effectively constrained w/o a written constitution (e.g. Britain) * Constitutionalism often (does not mean it necessarily equals to) associated specifically with liberalism, protection of individual rights against the state. * => constitutional state identified not by possession of a constitution but by its effective protection of individual rights. * (but individual rights only one set of fundamental principles that might impose meaningful limits on power of the state) * Constitutionalism also used to constrain power holders to care for the common weal or adhere to particular conceptions of national identity or religious law * 3-fold classification of province of constitutionalism * Normative Constitutionalism (most touched-on area) * Concerned with...

...CHAPTER- 1 1.1: INTRODUCTION The word 'business' is actually derived from the idea of 'busy-ness'. This idea accurately describes most organizations: they are busy organizing resources, producing, selling, managing people and keeping track of finances. The people running the business have to organize people, money, materials and machines to produce a good or service to sell or give to their customers. Organisations: Since the dawn of time, civilized man has designed and built facilities in which to present great ideas. The Concept Organization manages ideas with the same monumental approach. Few things touch our daily life as much as Organisations do. We depend on organisations for education, food, clothing, shelter, health, wealth, recreation, travel, and much more. But what are they, have they come with us? Yes, organisations are as old as the human race itself. Archaeologists have discovered massive temples dating back to 3500 BC that were constructed through the organized actions of many people. The fact that impressive monuments were built suggest that not only did complex organisations exit, but that the people in them worked cohesively for common causes. “They are groups of people who work independently towards some purpose. Organisations are not physical structure; rather they are people who work together to achieve a set of goals. People who work in organisations have structured patterns of interactions, meaning...
