Is The World We Live In Real?

Holocaust Survivors and the story of Job

Old Testament vs. Job

The story of job is similar to other Old Testament stories because God is testing their faith and making sure that they 'fear' him. In Adam and Eve God had planted the tree go test their and to see if they would listen to God's order. In Abraham and Isaac story, God had told Abraham to kill his only son. This was because God was testing Abraham's faith and making sure that he fear God. In Job, God has made a bet to make sure that Job 'feared' God and tested his faith.

High School Feels

So far, the best thing about High school is more freedom. I feel that this is the best thing about High school because you don't feel like your in "prison" whereas in middle school you felt like you where in solitary confinement because of all the rules that had to be followed.The worst thing about High school is that I don't get to see all my friends as much as I want to. I feel this way because the High school is so big and the classes are not as close as they used to be in the Middle school. The classes are all separated by "wings" meaning that one subject is associated with one hallway. I also don't like how the lunch periods aren't separated by grade because now you don't get to hangout with friends from middle that don't have any classes with you. This is how I feel about the High school.

God as a character...?

This is my mind map about God. God as a character in a book was not what I expected this is because I was tought that God was a kind,compassionate, caring,comfortable being, but viewing God as a character changed my views on the kind,compassionate being that I know to a being to get very angry easily and a being that always wants to get its way and doesn't like mistakes. Examining Genesis 6-9 really changed my views on God as a character because this is where God had shown that he doesn't like people getting greedy and turning into selfish people. If they did turn out like that which they did, they wouldn't get a chance to redeem themselves instead they were all killed off expect for Noah and his family.This is my views on God as a character.
