The Mediterranean was a well known waterway frequently used by roman sailors as they were quite familiar with the weather patterns. In the Acts of the bible Paul said in front of a crowd that his cultural language was Aramaic. In the early years of the Mediterranean Aramaic was a common language mostly used when trading, exchanging or transporting. The roman empire was mostly made up of polytheistic religions and was accepting of many religions including Egyptian, Hebrew, Greek, Roman, Arab, Christian and islamic cultures. The Mediterranean basin was significant in the evolution of the cultures and influential for understanding the origin of the Mediterranean. People and goods were transported through the Mediterranean sea as it was the most common superhighway for transport, trade and cultural exchange. The mediterranean world was surrounded by several regions and cities including Rome, Italy, Macedonia, Crete, Cyprus, Samaria, Judaea, Jerusalem, Syria, Antioch, Corinth, Achaia, Thessalonica, Philippi, Galatia, Colossae, Laodicea, Ephesus and Asia minor.                                                                                                      ]]> 2018-09-12 03:31:37 UTC https://padlet.com/22findl/rfy8ykfca4dn/wish/280180252 22findl https://padlet.com/22findl/rfy8ykfca4dn/wish/280610185 The Roman Empire in the Time of Jesus.

He fell to the ground and heard a voice say to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?” “Who are you, Lord?” Saul asked. “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting,” he replied. “Now get up and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do.” After the vision of the resurrected during his journey on the road of Damascus he would be the man to travel extensively to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ beyond Jewish circles, becoming the man known as the Apostle to the Gentiles and to fight heterodoxy. ]]> 2018-09-17 09:49:47 UTC https://padlet.com/22findl/rfy8ykfca4dn/wish/282194993 22findl https://padlet.com/22findl/rfy8ykfca4dn/wish/282209156 Acts 9:1 – 3:6 (The conversion of Saul)]]> 2018-09-17 10:27:19 UTC https://padlet.com/22findl/rfy8ykfca4dn/wish/282209156 22findl https://padlet.com/22findl/rfy8ykfca4dn/wish/282210239 2018-09-17 10:30:34 UTC https://padlet.com/22findl/rfy8ykfca4dn/wish/282210239 22findl https://padlet.com/22findl/rfy8ykfca4dn/wish/282210953 Paul was inspired to spread the Gospel as a result of his personal conversion and to do that he travelled extensively. During St Pauls 3rd and last missionary journey he first travelled to the congregations that were earlier planted during the time he spent in Galatia on his first journey. Starting in Galatia and Phrygia, strengthening the believers on his journey through Asia. Later arriving in Ephesus, Paul finds and educates believers about baptism. For three months he regularly went to the synagogue and preached Jesus as the Messiah until the Jews refused to believe. After 3 years spent in Ephesus a silversmith is concerned about the decrease in business in crafting idols and starts a brawl within the whole city targeting the concern of St Paul preaching a christian message. Leaving Paul and his friends to deal with an angry crowd.  ]]> 2018-09-17 10:32:39 UTC https://padlet.com/22findl/rfy8ykfca4dn/wish/282210953 22findl https://padlet.com/22findl/rfy8ykfca4dn/wish/282213848 2018-09-17 10:41:12 UTC https://padlet.com/22findl/rfy8ykfca4dn/wish/282213848 22findl https://padlet.com/22findl/rfy8ykfca4dn/wish/290121421 2018-10-08 02:46:54 UTC https://padlet.com/22findl/rfy8ykfca4dn/wish/290121421 22findl https://padlet.com/22findl/rfy8ykfca4dn/wish/290121629 Saint Paul wrote letters to the early christians of the churches that the letters were sent to, through the letters that were written to the christian churches over 6 years (51CE to 56CE), he was able to educate and spread the word about the values and prayers of the christian church.

Abraham believed and demanded that prior to becoming a Christian you must be circumcised. This was seen as a common practise for all jewish religion and as Paul spent most of his youth in Tarsus he was circumcised during this time. Becoming a problem for Paul as gentiles were initially introduced into Christianity as the jewish christians adhered to jewish laws. A letter was then written to the Galatians from Saint Paul explaining the importance of Christianity was following Jesus' examples and believing in him, then saying that the circumcision law of Christianity shouldn't exist anymore as it wasn't what is important in Christianity. ]]> 2018-10-08 04:19:13 UTC https://padlet.com/22findl/rfy8ykfca4dn/wish/290133385 22findl https://padlet.com/22findl/rfy8ykfca4dn/wish/290133667 2018-10-08 04:21:46 UTC https://padlet.com/22findl/rfy8ykfca4dn/wish/290133667 22findl https://padlet.com/22findl/rfy8ykfca4dn/wish/290133931 In 1 Corinthians 12:4-7 it says "⁴ Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; ⁵ and there are varieties of services, but the same Lord; ⁶ and there are varieties of activities, but it is the same God who activates all of them in everyone. ⁷ To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good." This passage means that the holy spirit gives different gifts to God's people so they are not all the same. All these differences are arranged by God, not to separate his people, but instead join them together. No single Christian has all God's gifts or can carry out all God's work. The result is that all Christians need each other to do God's work together but the honour belongs to God alone. This message portrayed in this passage is applicable to us now as everyone isn't the same they are all different and unique in their own way and should use these differences to work together and achieve something great instead of separating yourself from others because you are different. ]]> 2018-10-08 04:23:45 UTC https://padlet.com/22findl/rfy8ykfca4dn/wish/290133931 22findl https://padlet.com/22findl/rfy8ykfca4dn/wish/290135970 Moodle – Explain Folder
