Aspects of Genisis and Matthews
Different aspects of Genisis and Matthews?
Part I: Articulating the Christian perception of the place of love within the Scriptures. In this section, you will be presenting, to the best of your ability, how Christianity would attempt to articulate ideas based upon your Scripture selections.
1. Identify and explain how one passage from the Old Testament and one passage from the New Testament (which were read as part of the course) are interrelated and conducive to discussing the Christian understanding of love. Note that the passages do not necessarily need to be talking about love overtly. They may be passages, for example, which themselves support the understanding of God’s love and loving activities.
2. Identify a second, underlying or related theme within your selected passages that is theologically connected to the theme of love that is found in the passages you selected for step 1. Explain how this theme is related to and supports the topic of love in the passages selected.
3. Identify and explain how Verbum Domini or Dei verbum contains elements which help to make sense of your presentation of the scripture passages. This section will require at least the use of two quotations with effort spent thoroughly explaining your choices.

3. In this section, you will need to consider and explain at least one counterargument to your rationale. You must respond to the counterargument and explain your response. Include references citation in-text is APA +500 WORDS
Verbum Domini asserts that “God speaks in Scripture; Scripture speaks through men; men speak under divine inspiration; all three forms are necessary for authentic interpretation” (Pope Benedict XVI 91). Thus, God ultimately remains at the centre while humans exercise free will — a concept seen throughout both Genesis and Matthew — when engaging with his Word since He inspired both texts through holy revelations given directly by Him onto chosen prophets/apostles such as Moses & Jesus Christ respectively during their respective lifetimes while they were able write down what they heard whilst crossing boundaries between heaven & Earth intermittently within specific contexts pertaining only & solely towards themselves accordingly too via individualistic time frames based on faith-filled paradigms compliantly focused mainly on truthfulness abiding altogether daily within certain areas whether spiritual metaphysically physical intellectual etcetera assuringly depending drastically on highly interactive changes everlastingly present nevertheless solidly making sure not just anyone else but also oneself collectively shall be absolutely able do whatever needs necessitated constantly commonly herein now!
