The Worldly Construction of 'Race'
In changing times and as cultural identities evolve, a constant issue has been and seems always will be the struggle of favoritism and discrimination of people who look and act different. Even God's people struggle with this issue to this day. How we address the issue is not found in worldly political strategies and policies but in the truths in Holy Scripture and the Characteristics of God himself.
Actually Trusting God
Knowing God can be trusted and actually trusting God are two different things. One is just simple knowledge, the other is the application of the knowledge. One is easier than the other. But also our understanding of who God is helps us be able to actually trust him. We can have no worries about the unknown future, results, and have peace with Joy; all from actually trusting God.
What Did Athenagoras of Athens Teach?
Not a lot is known about Athenagoras except what is found in his writings and quoted by later writers. It is estimated that he was born around 133AD and died around 190AD. His writings are dated to around 176AD. Oddly he is not recorded in the writings of Eusebius but none the less is noted by other church historians. From his writings we can determine what it is he understood from the Apostles teachings; and his writings are extensive. His known writings mainly focus on why Christianity is superior to pagan religions and a very lengthy argument for bodily resurrection. His writings also contain a very detailed explanation of The Trinity before the term 'the trinity' was applied.
