The war lasted for 100 years starting in 264BC ending in 146BC.After years of fighting and war the romans one and took the role of the most powerful Mediterranean state. They continued to fight and continued to conquered land become stronger and richer.During this time the most common languages that were used to communicate were Greek and Latin. Greek was spread by the      Greek traders spreading their langue through the shores of the Mediterranean and latin was the official language of the roman government.Eventually the romans had to much power and problems started to appear with communication and power through the armies. So the roman empire began to collapse, and eventually was fully destroyed. ]]> 2017-08-30 01:47:28 UTC https://padlet.com/21colla/edxy102w40tp/wish/183573145 Post 4 21colla https://padlet.com/21colla/edxy102w40tp/wish/183573169 Every place paul travelled to he would write letter, the letters were to the Galatians to explain what was important and to give instructions on certain practices.The letters were mainly about God and to remind his jewish sisters and brothers the mission God gave them. Paul's letters where directed at the gentiles and he spoke about how you did not need to believe in the jewish practices if you are converting to Christianity .Living a Christian life is about coming together no matter the circumstances and to preach God and gather in celebration in Gods love.

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus".I believe this relates to paul as he always put he faith in the hands of god and we should do the same.No matter how scary the situation might be or how unsure we are we always have God to count on and guide us through these times ]]> 2017-08-30 01:47:49 UTC https://padlet.com/21colla/edxy102w40tp/wish/183573186 Post 5 21colla https://padlet.com/21colla/edxy102w40tp/wish/183573204 During Paul's time, he travelled far and wide to spread the teachings of Jesus. On his Missionary journey he came across a group of Gentile converts.With Paul encouraging people from other religions to convert, he came upon many cultural issues. The main issue that was spoken between Jewish Christians and himself working with the Christian Gentiles was the following of The Jewish laws, especially the Circumcision law. Paul did not believe that the traditional jewish customs were needed for the jews to complete if they were converting  to christianity however others disagreed, stated in Galatians 5:6-7, " For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts for anything; the only thing that counts is faith working through love".]]> 2017-08-30 01:47:54 UTC https://padlet.com/21colla/edxy102w40tp/wish/183573204 Post 3 21colla https://padlet.com/21colla/edxy102w40tp/wish/186602501 Paul travelled to many places throughout his life sharing and spreading the word of god, wanting people to understand christianity.
