Puritanism and Early Settlement of First "American" colonies: Fact #1

sjacobs128 — 2024-02-08 12:32:49 UTC

The first fact speaks of the interactions of the Puritans and the Native Americans. The people came and settled on Native American land without permission and brought disease to the native Indians with it. Because the native people didn't have immunity against the diseases, many died. The people saw this as an act of God so that they could continue. They even took some Native Indians in and converted them.

Puritanism and Early Settlement of First "American" colonies: Fact #2

sjacobs128 — 2024-02-08 12:32:56 UTC

"Sinners in the hands of an angry God," was one of the biggest sermons in that time. Many people, being lukewarm and uncaring, wept in repentance and in the fear of the Lord the day the sermon was preached. The town which it was mainly situated in was convicted of their unspiritual ways and repented then and there. The sobs and tears of the people was one to remember.

1. Mostly comprised of philosophers, scientists, writing speeches and pamphlets

2. Human beings can arrive at truth (God's rules) by using deductive reasoning, rather than relying on the authority of the past, on religious faith, or intuition

Rationalism "The Age of Reason" "The Enlightenment": Fact #1

sjacobs128 — 2024-02-21 11:54:20 UTC

The first fact is that the, "Age of Enlightenment," of was a time of intellectual thinking and change. reason and science were used and deemed appropriate over superstition and blind faith. People like the famous Isaac Newton was part of this grand movement. They say that this age was a huge turning point in the West and brought them out of the, "dark ages."

Rationalism "The Age of Reason" "The Enlightenment": Fact #2

sjacobs128 — 2024-02-21 11:54:27 UTC

The second fact alludes to how the age of reason attacked the Christian bases. They didn't want blind faith and didn't believe in a God, they criticized, speculated, and scrutinized the Christians. The Declaration of Independence wasn't only in the time of independence of Britain, but it was a slow start to people thinking they could outsmart and outweigh the Eternal God Almighty.

1. Everything in the world, including human beings, is a reflection of the Divine Soul.

2. People can use their intuition to behold God's spirit revealed in nature or in their own souls.

3. Self-reliance and individualism must outweigh external authority and link conformity to tradition.

4. Important social and political movements include the Abolitionist, Utopian, and Women's Suffrage Movements

Transcendentalism "The American Renaissance": Fact #1

sjacobs128 — 2024-03-22 10:22:17 UTC

They focused in on the natural elements of nature and on abolition. It was a new expression of nature and a national spirit. Many, many of the transcendentalism works have made a huge different in the literature today.

Transcendentalism "The American Renaissance": Fact #2

sjacobs128 — 2024-03-22 10:22:25 UTC

This era began in the beginning of the civil war. Also the start of the Dark Romanticists. The Dark Romanticists saw nature as more, 'dark,' ominous, and powerful, not as a positive view as the transcendentalists. Both views of nature itself, and the nature of humans, made big dents into the literary world that we know..

Taking a Stand 2024: The Christians

sjacobs128 — 2024-04-03 07:46:26 UTC

"Therefore, put on the full armour of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand."- Ephesians 6:13

So, I have compiled various recent stories, articles, and moments in our history about the Christians taking a stand. Therefore, that is what I have named this era.

Taking a Stand 2024: The Christians: Period Characteristics

sjacobs128 — 2024-04-03 07:46:31 UTC

*Christians will stand firm for their God.

*Through persecution, we will still declare Jesus is Lord and Savior and the Only God!

*Abortion will not be tolerated no matter how many people have watered-down the situation.

Again, another cite about having to take a stand as Christians. The church has faced hostility for hundreds of years, but we will not fold. We will not lose our voice no matter how hard they push- we will take a stand.

Abolitionist Rising: Fact #2

sjacobs128 — 2024-04-03 07:46:46 UTC

link~https://abolitionistsrising.com/

This is a network of people who take a stand against the work of abortions and child sacrifice. They are a Christian organization and work to save the lives of children (no matter at what stage in pregnancy).

Fact #1: The Puritans and their outlook towards sin.

sjacobs128 — 2024-05-09 15:18:46 UTC

- Puritans were extremely harsh when it came to sin; especially adultery. Their harshness on crime included things like hangings, burnings, and pressing. Seems to be out of fear for breaking their, "godly community." Their views were very Calvinistic when it came to these subjects. A quote from the link that describes their actions quite well is, "The idea was to shame people into behaving by exposing their sins in public."

*1804-1864

-Nathaniel got his taste for thinking and reading actually when he had an injury! It was a leg injury and this is what caused him to stay mobilized for such a long time.

-he also had a dark time of seclusion, that felt like dreary dream to him. This was the time that he went back to his mother in Bowdoin, in her Salem household, for 12 years. These years seemed to have effected him for the next forward.

Poet Study Part 1: Walt Whitman

sjacobs128 — 2024-06-10 08:35:07 UTC

I don't think this author should be here because he seems to only deliver innapropreate work.

I was looking at another cite before this one, but it seemed to have innapropreate content about this man, so, I left but found it only basically confirmed in this article. This author sadly had a lot of issues in the world of homeosexuality and nudity.
"Leaves of Grass" was one of his first published works but was considered indecent.
His mother's death effected him greatly.

3. Represented the manner and environment of everyday life and ordinary people as realistically as possible (Regionalism).
4. Sought to explain behavior (psychologically/socially).

Realism: Fact #1

sjacobs128 — 2024-08-08 08:26:44 UTC

Try to be realistic in their work and base it of on real facts and the opposite of romanticism. For example, they would say that David had no chance against Goliath, but romanticism would still say David could do it (in reality, God was on his side that's why the attack against Goliath prevailed).

Realism: Fact #2

sjacobs128 — 2024-08-08 08:26:54 UTC

The Reconstruction happened because, after the civil war, people wanted to sort the issues that the war didn't. So, the determination behind slavery, white or black supremacy, and working better together was accounted for. People tried to fix this, and not all worked out, but aggressive white communities fought back. Wanting to get rights for everyone, including the black community, was included in this reconstructing era. (I would say, in short summary).

The American Dream, 20's. Interesting fact #1

sjacobs128 — 2024-10-01 13:36:12 UTC

"America First," was an important presidential slogan, but later on became a racial argument and what seemed to be a fascist group that marches to the slogan. These times of the "American Dream" were supposed to be of justice and equality, but later on became of success in wealth. The meaning and symbolism go lost along the way, like many other slogans before. These two phrase budded heads later on in the liberal and cultural side of it, I would say. (Short description)

The church during this time of the Great depression gained a lot more understanding and seemed to stay strong in its active members. Recourses and money took a plunge, but the church body remained stable. There were even some churches that grew in number; I'm for people looking for an answer, or God in this situation. And this article doesn't say too much, but I know for solid FACT that God was, is, and will always be there for us no matter what we go through. I might not agree with everything said in his article (it is an outside source after all), but we know that the church is still here today, so, it survived because Jesus Christ is True and still lives today.

Economic boom happened this time around. New machines, new technology, more affluence- it all cased this boom. The Black community was also getting more involved with art, and there were still very poor communities out there as well. But this era was one of the biggest booms of this time that lead to even more growth forward. (In a short description of the 1920's). Was it big money or equality- American dream to them?

The war's aftermath, and the cold war that was still in the process, effected all of this. Technology advanced because of everything here. A big boom for America, will it be better now?

This era was during a time of people, tired of war, but in the middle of the Vietnam war and drafting of students, where the kids wanted something new to free them and let go. Drugs became their basis. But something else happened between the 1960's and 1970's, the biggest revolutions and salvation movement in the 1900's- the Jesus Revolution or the Jesus people. No longer enslaved to drugs or angry about war- these people found true freedom in Christ, our Lord. The American Dream became One Way: His Way.

The American Dream, 60's to 70's (Fact #1)

sjacobs128 — 2024-11-01 07:23:14 UTC

Here the definition of the American Dream moved on to something else- not just prosperity and white-picket fence anymore. Civil rights movement, gender-equality, and anti-war protests shaped the American dream to a new meaning! The counter-culture movement also emerged, where people questioned traditional values and what used to be seen as normal. A very opinionated and frustrated people it seems like.

Harlem Renaissance ("The Jazz Age" "The Roaring 20s") 1920–1940. Fact #1

sjacobs128 — 2024-11-01 08:24:01 UTC

So, these were termed the crazy decades by the French, for there was too much drinking going on and too little self-control between the people. Music was booming as well. This is why prohibition came and took a toll on the people- not more alcohol!! Christians should bring this back to protect the anointing, not continue to blend in with the world. Underground marketing for intoxication became a norm, all away from the eyes of the police and government! How sad, will be praying for them!! Thank You Jesus that you have prevented us from getting involved in this, we love You, Lord God!

Harlem Renaissance ("The Jazz Age" "The Roaring 20s") 1920–1940. Fact #2

sjacobs128 — 2024-11-01 08:24:09 UTC

Though this era of Jazz became a revelry for the people- the end of that decade, the 1920's, the economy took a very steep crash that caused multiple issues afterwards and took long to get back to okay again. The life of a woman took a new turn where they acted more like men in that age: smoking, drinking, getting drunk, saying unladylike things, and voting. Jim Crow Laws also ran rampant during this time too. These people needed, and still, needs the peace, joy, and Truth in His freedom more than anything else. They need the Almighty God! Praying for them! Black people fought for rights in this time of the 1920's and 1940's as well.

The American Dream, 80's (Fact #1)

sjacobs128 — 2024-11-06 09:31:31 UTC

The rich came into this one real fast. Either you had education and loads of cash and fame, or your were considered too poor and in too much dept to chase and achieve the American Dream. The differences between those rich and poor people starting becoming a wider gap with those who long for the American Dream and those who already seemed to have it. Consumerism was big and great to them! And if you couldn't fit in to that regime, then don't bother to try to associate yourselves with those that did ( the YUPPIES (Young Urban Professionals), people who strived for wealth and success. Do we have ambition or personal happiness? In this era, you have either or, not both.

The American Dream, 90's and 2000's (Fact #1)

sjacobs128 — 2024-11-13 10:58:20 UTC

in the 90's, It went from a white-picket fence dream to financial stability and success in life! If your head-space was good, you had a good job, and found personal fulfillment in life, then you made it folks! Your family life good and stable? Even better! Technology (the internet etc.) also came in these years and only grew from there! Here, you have to work hard to achieve your dreams, not just find it and get it for free, or inherit it. But culture became unculture-all and unusual with pop-culture coming in. I think we went down-hill from there.

Contemporary "Postmodernism (1950–present): Period Characteristics

sjacobs128 — 2024-11-21 10:41:48 UTC

1. Influenced by studies of media, language, and information technology.
2. Sense that little is unique; culture endlessly duplicates itself.
3. New literary forms and techniques: works composed of only dialogue, or combining fiction and nonfiction, experimenting with physical appearance of their work.

Contemporary "Postmodernism" (1950–present): fact #1

sjacobs128 — 2024-11-21 10:42:50 UTC

This was an era of thinking outside of culture. Thinking, "outside the box," to say. Skepticism, and not believing that there are any objective truths. It seems to be near relativism, for they say there is not real, set-in-stone, truth. Reasoning and what they deemed logic was used widely here. (I couldn't have heard of more nonsense, because by saying there is no objective truth, destroys itself, for you are proclaiming an objective truth. Learned this in Bible Apologetics.

Contemporary "Postmodernism" (1950–present): fact #2

sjacobs128 — 2024-11-21 10:43:00 UTC

People wanted out from normal because of all the wars and racism going around. They wanted change, and used wrong ways to achieve it- they thought they could play God instead of seeking Him themselves. You can make truth, 'though discourse and lived experience,' that's what they say. But as Christians, we don't live by experience but by every word that comes out of the mouth of God! Praise His Name!

sjacobs128 — 2024-11-26 14:43:27 UTC

At this point in time, children born in the 1980's actually started earning more than their parents! This greed and selfishness for wealth, fame, and a successful life was an ambition that drained many and made many a different lost person. Could you recognize your kid in all this?

The American Dream, 90's and 2000's (Fact #1)

sjacobs128 — 2024-11-26 14:44:05 UTC

Rodney King was assaulted here. A lot of trials and acts against racism still took place. Many could say the American dream looked like equality for many and a better life without for others. But the American dream didn't like change- yet, that is what this era was about. People didn't want this comfortable dream to be something that includes that's not for them- equality among men of different color, race, and background. And by the 2000's, this generation seemed completely lost to the idea of an, "American Dream," because of the rapid decline of good money, and more dept and less income. Did responsibility and this ambition of an American dream leave us? Possibly for the secular. Not for us Christians though that do not rely on any American Dream to carry us, but actually, we have Christ! Praise the Lord!

{The book I chose is one I have, but have never read, but have watched the movie! 2004} This story is about a minister driving home from a conference, but gets hit by a truck and is in heaven for 60 minutes; here, he meets multiple different people that played a spiritual role in his life. Another minister passing is told by God to go and pray for the dead man. The dead minister comes back to life, afterwards, going through a long recovery back to health; all while his relationship with God grows as he recovers and learns, and later on, he shares his story of heaven with everyone.

Overview of my 2024 Padlet. Thank You, Jesus Christ!

I can say one thing, and one thing only: I could not have done this without Jesus. He helped me through every single part of this! Here is a drawing of an artist I love, here name is on the picture! This is her and Jesus finishing a puzzle, and that's what it feels like! Me and Him are finishing up my school year and I am so blessed to have been able to do grade 11! All through Him, all to Him, all with Him, all in Him, and all for Him! Glory be to God! Thank you Mrs. Dewey as well! You were a big help, and learning of the times is hard to see all the sad occasions where people abandoned God. But its so amazing, that He never abandoned them. That is the Lord we serve! Thank You, Lord, Hallelujah! Until next time, bye ma'am!
