Judaism and Christianity

Answer # 1

With regards to Harris, the New Testament, my opinion is that he has given a forceful analysis of Christianity in the early days. I also believe that the text that has been written can serve to be destructive for the young Christians and if an individual may not understand the point of view of the scholar. This also means that the scholar who deals with empirically verifiable historical entities cannot affirm that miracles that have taken place in the history. The best affirmation that can be provided by a scholar is the miracles that have taken place.

1.You reap what you sow - This explains that no one can fool God. Therefore, it is not wise to fool ourselves because one always gets the results of his deeds, either good or bad.

2.With God, small makes big - Considering the small things such as beliefs and choices, God rewards us with bigger things. This can be explained by the concept of Heaven and Hell since those who do good deeds are rewarded and sent to Heaven after death.

3.You are not the only sower - The other people that we have around us have an impact on our lives. Similarly, the enemy of our souls also sows seeds. However, Jesus is watchful, and he knows our motives behind a deed.

4.God gives gifts; you choose to use them - Those people who ask God for wisdom is granted ...
