Messianic Judaism And The Church, Robert C. Greer Feb 2025

Messianic Judaism And The Church, Robert C. Greer

Liberty Theological Review

One of the more curious phenomena within the Protestant Evangelical Church is Messianic Judaism. Its gospel is essentially the same as Protestant evangelicalism since Messianic Jews worship Jesus as Messiah, Savior and Lord. Yet many shun the label "Christian," preferring such titles as "fulfilled" or "completed Jews." Messianic Jews typically worship on Saturdays and observe a kosher diet. The symbol of the cross, which is ubiquitous in Protestant Evangelicalism and regarded as its most sacred symbol,, is problematic with many Messianic Jews. Messianic Judaism therefore maintains an arm's distance from Gentile Christianity. This paper is an exploration of that separation …

Public Theology And Political Polarization: Environmental Policy, Jean Golicz, Leonard S. Momeny Feb 2025

Public Theology And Political Polarization: Environmental Policy, Jean Golicz, Leonard S. Momeny

Liberty Theological Review

The purpose of this article is to explore the impact of public theology on potentially polarizing political views. Specifically, the historical and contemporary interpretations of the Lynn White Thesis (1966) are examined as well as the practical implications for developing environmental policies that align with a biblical worldview. The authors propose the application of multiple paradigms to the study of religiosity and environmental activism as a way of addressing the complexity and diversity of various viewpoints. Understanding the multiple ways Jesus operated in an equally contentious and polarized society creates a path forward for churches. By rejecting the supposition that …

James' Warning Against Inauthentic Faith: Confronting The Actions Of The Wealthy (James 5:1-6), Joseph Daniel Peters, Bradley Wayne Ellison Feb 2025

James' Warning Against Inauthentic Faith: Confronting The Actions Of The Wealthy (James 5:1-6), Joseph Daniel Peters, Bradley Wayne Ellison

Liberty Theological Review

The primary message of James is that one’s faith should be reflected by their actions. The author of James argues that helping the needy is what pure religion and genuine faith looks like (1:27; 2:14-18). He contrasts this with his description of the wealthy who oppress the poor by hoarding their wealth and defrauding their employees of their wages (5:1-6). The author criticizes the oppressive and greedy actions of the wealthy, arguing that their actions will testify against them and lead to their misery. One major question is whether these wealthy are within the church (i.e., self-identify as Christians). If …

Defending The Doctrine Of Hell, Jordan P. Ballard Feb 2025

Defending The Doctrine Of Hell, Jordan P. Ballard

Liberty Theological Review

The doctrine of hell, or the final state of the wicked, has become one of the most objectionable Christian doctrines because it depicts God as vengeful and wrathful, which is offensive to human sensibilities. As an extension of the problem of evil, where God is put on trial for allowing what may appear to be gratuitous pain and suffering in the world, many Christians and non-Christians alike wonder how a loving God could consign people to suffering in hell forever. After all, why didn’t God make a world where all would be saved if He is truly loving? Belief in …

God's Sovereignty In Jeremiah's Call (Jer. 1:4-19), Joseph Peters Feb 2025

God's Sovereignty In Jeremiah's Call (Jer. 1:4-19), Joseph Peters

Liberty Theological Review

In Jeremiah 1:4-19, God reveals to Jeremiah that God had chosen him to be a prophet over the nations before Jeremiah was even born. Even though Jeremiah presents objections to his commission, God assures Jeremiah that he will proclaim God’s message and does not need to fear as God will be with him. The message is concerned with both destruction and reconstruction, especially concerning Judah. Knowing that such a message would inevitably meet with opposition, God reassures Jeremiah that he has given Jeremiah the words to say and the protection that he needs to fulfill his task. This article will …

"Restoration Under The Davidic Shepherd-King": An Exposition Of Ezekiel 37:15–28, Angela Gloria Erum Feb 2025

"Restoration Under The Davidic Shepherd-King": An Exposition Of Ezekiel 37:15–28, Angela Gloria Erum

Liberty Theological Review

Considering what is happening to Israel in the Middle East these days, this exposition of Ezekiel 37:15–28 provides hope for the people of Israel as well as the Gentile believers in Christ. Ezekiel 37:15–28 exhibits Yahweh’s covenantal promise to gather His people (the people of Israel) from other nations, restore them to their land, and reunify them (both northern and southern kingdoms) as one nation under one king, the Davidic shepherd-king; thus, other nations would realize that Yahweh is God. By examining Ezekiel 37:15–28, this paper will attempt to demonstrate the exegesis and the theological implications of the passage through …

The Decalogue As A Transitional Model For Fear, Pamela Jensen Ikasalo Feb 2025

The Decalogue As A Transitional Model For Fear, Pamela Jensen Ikasalo

Liberty Theological Review

God’s original intention for relationships was disrupted by the fall of man as recorded in Genesis 3. From that point, fear of man played an intricate role in both interpersonal relationships and decision-making. The purpose of the Decalogue was to moderate relationships among the people and with their God. However, there is an additional purpose as well. The Decalogue serves as a transitional model from fear of man to fear of the Lord. When God’s people live according to the precedents found in Exodus 20 and Deuteronomy 5 their lifestyle no longer follows the pattern set by fallen humanity. Both …

A Review Examining The Factors Contributory To The Socialization Of A Culture Of Environmental Stewardship, Colby Nixon Feb 2025

A Review Examining The Factors Contributory To The Socialization Of A Culture Of Environmental Stewardship, Colby Nixon

Undergraduate Research and Engagement Symposium

Environmental stewardship is an ambiguous but significant term meaning that responsibility for the environment — and its quality — is shared between all individuals who interact with it. As a culture-wide phenomena, it is correlated with a mutualistic relationship with nature and the Earth. My study responds to a question as to which and how variables contribute to a societal mindset of environmental stewardship. This review synthesizes numerous studies across diverse cultures and contexts to examine trends therein. In doing so, I discovered that religion, policy, human development, linguistics, and economic roles play a part in socializing environmental stewardship into …

中西合璧:对 2011 年和 2021 年台湾中学改革的师生观念对比研究, Yee Han Peter Joong, 李 珍

Chinese/English Journal of Educational Measurement and Evaluation | 教育测量与评估双语期刊

本项研究运用混合研究方法，对 2011 年与 2021 年台湾地区师生对于持续 12 年的基础教育改革的态度进行了对比分析。研究数据基于对 26 所抽样学校(2011 年 14 所， 2021 年 12 所)师生的调查问卷。研究重点分析了教师在教学或评价策略中的使用频率。两项研究的结果均揭示了一个现象:以教师为主导的课堂模式(如教师主导的谈话和提问教学法)占据主流，而以学生为中心的教学方法(如活动参与和小组合作)的应用则相对有限。此外，约有四分之一的学生反映，课堂上部分学生的行为对他们的学习造成了干扰。尤为引人关注的是，高风险考试仍是改革进程中的一大障碍，这种考试模式过分强调对知识的机械记忆，而非鼓励知识的创造性应用。其他地区的教育工作者可以从台湾地区的教育改革实践中吸取宝贵的经验教训。

Using Mind Maps To Make Student Knowledge Visible In An Aac Course, Allison Sauerwein, Natalie Quinlan, Coral Viernow

Teaching and Learning in Communication Sciences & Disorders

Concept maps make students’ knowledge visible. Creating a mind map gives students an opportunity to organize their knowledge and allows instructors to visualize and assess it. When students create mind maps at multiple time points, instructors can compare the maps and use the themes, patterns, and gaps that emerge to reflect on their teaching and take action. The purpose of this study was to use concept maps in an AAC course to uncover students’ knowledge. A total of 61 graduate students created a mind map with AAC as the central concept at the beginning and end of the term in …
