Timeline of World History - Category:History timelines — Wikimedia Commons What is Gospel Centered Ministry? The theological foundation of the church is the gospel of Jesus Christ. Churches fall into error whenever they move away from the gospel as their foundation. Alan Hirsch reminds us that, “Discipleship, becoming like Jesus our Lord and Founder, lies at the epicenter of the church’s task. It means that Christology must define all that we do and say…It will mean taking the Gospels seriously as the primary texts that define us.” Man-Centered Ministry One of the major problems in many churches is bad ecclesiology and a man-centered view of ministry. The result is that many churches produce consumers and not radical disciples of Jesus Christ. Understanding the Gospel Discipleship begins with understanding the gospel. What is the gospel? The gospel is the declaration of the good news that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and that He died for our sins on the cross of cavalry.

Greek Gods Family Tree ludios.org Sumérien Le sumérien (en sumérien « 𒅴𒂠 » ; translittération : EME.ĜIR15) est une langue morte qui était parlée dans l'Antiquité en Basse Mésopotamie. Elle est ainsi la langue parlée à Sumer aux IVe et IIIe millénaires av. J.-C. Le sumérien comportait deux variétés (sociolectes) connues : l'émegir et l'émesal. Le sumérien semble être la plus ancienne langue écrite connue, sous une forme d'écriture appelée le cunéiforme, voire la plus ancienne langue connue[5]. L'akkadien a progressivement remplacé le sumérien comme langue parlée autour du XXe siècle av.

Reste à établir la fonction et la nature de cette langue, qui alors n'est connue que par des logogrammes dans des textes en akkadien.

Sumerian Mythology: Introduction Sacred Texts Ancient Near East Index Previous Next p. 1 The study of Sumerian culture introduced by the present volume, Sumerian Mythology, is to be based largely on Sumerian literary sources; it will consist of the formulation of the spiritual and religious concepts of the Sumerians, together with the reconstructed text and translation of the Sumerian literary compositions in which these concepts are revealed. It is therefore very essential that the reader have a clear picture of the nature of our source material, which consists primarily of some three thousand tablets and fragments inscribed in the Sumerian language and dated approximately 1750 B. C. a It is the first aim of the Introduction of the present volume to achieve such clarification. The decipherment of Sumerian differed from that of Accadian 3 and Egyptian in one significant detail, a detail p. 2 which proved to be one of the factors in hampering the progress of Sumerology to no inconsiderable extent. p. 3 p. 4 p. 5 p. 6 p. 7 p. 8
