Question

Evodius’s vision of a boy in a palace leads Augustine to question whether there is any harm in this action. Tertullian’s Apology argues that the church grows through this action, whose embrace by Cicero and Seneca is only truly (-5[1])realized by Christians. Ignatius of Antioch describes himself as “God’s wheat” (10[1])as he desires this action. In First Philippians, (10[1])Paul rejects his purported desire for this action to encourage Philippians to embrace suffering and spread the Gospel. (10[1])In John chapter 11, Jesus convinces Martha’s sister Mary that he has power over this action. (10[2])First (10[1])Corinthians asks where (10[1])the “victory” and “sting” (10[1])of this action are. (10[1])The speaker (10[1])of Psalm 23 “walks through the valley of the shadow of” this thing. For 10 points, Jesus brings Lazarus back after what action occurs after his sickness? ■END■ (10[1])
