Different technology, different languages. We're not any different from our ancestors. We still follow some of the same patterns from the past.

Alexander allowed his realm to continue their way of life, but Greeks ventured into the realm. The influence of Greek society is seen throughout Asia Minor, Egypt, and Europe because of Alexander.
New ideas evolved in Greece as they were introduced to the world, and philosophies developed to make sense of human existence. Stoicism and Epicureanism.

Much like today, pride consumes many to achieve and advance so much that it blinds them of what really matters in life. What happened at the end of all this fighting?

The idea that they left innocent babies to die in the element because the Spartans felt were not fit was horrible.

Although they were designed to be fair, the punishment was often death or enslavement. The Code of Hammurabi also addressed lawful matters, but were written by a ruler. Punishment was also often death. The Ten Commandments were given to people from God. Killing is forbidden by the Commandments. If people were to follow the laws of man, they would be in violation of God's law. I find it troubling that civilizations have felt a need to govern their people with threat of death. If we just followed the Ten Commandments none of these man made laws would ever be violated.]]> 2018-10-23 01:27:03 UTC https://padlet.com/youthpastordaniel/4x9dcvcbrtpp/wish/295750747 https://padlet.com/youthpastordaniel/4x9dcvcbrtpp/wish/295750853 It was interesting to learn about the Silk Road and the connections between Western and Eastern civilization.  This being a big trade route with one of the main trades of silk.  It was not only silk but many other things.  For trade travel by sea was much faster but the road was still used for transportation.

It is in moments like that where I think God is winking at me.

What I reflected on was how important it is to always look towards our Heavenly Father no matter the circumstances. We can only see situations are about learning from then and only look forward not back.

The New Testament was originally written in Greek. The Romans adopted Greek philosophy and law. Literature, building construction, law, science... all seems to have Greek influence. The Renaissance brought back Greek culture, and even today Greek ideas, art, and construction are visible in Merced. The Old Merced County courthouse has resemblance to Greek architecture, with statues of Greco/Roman gods/warriors standing on top of the building.

With this new way  of thinking for some to doubt God's existence
 and look towards Science. This is unfortunately as true then as it is now. It is unfortunate how some people are so weak to deny the truth when God shows us everyday by his love grace and the awe of all of his 
creations.]]> 2018-11-06 02:09:42 UTC https://padlet.com/youthpastordaniel/4x9dcvcbrtpp/wish/300798396 https://padlet.com/youthpastordaniel/4x9dcvcbrtpp/wish/300798535 I feel that I have learned quite a bit over the last few weeks, and one of the things that stands out the most is the period of Sparta and Athens. I also believe that these devotions are very influential to me. They help me see things in a different light sometimes. I will miss being in this class with all these great people. ]]> 2018-11-06 02:10:26 UTC https://padlet.com/youthpastordaniel/4x9dcvcbrtpp/wish/300798535 mendozaklan https://padlet.com/youthpastordaniel/4x9dcvcbrtpp/wish/300798582 Incorporating the Word of God in these assignments really helped me realize, even more, that apart from the wisdom of God we are lost.
