How does sin play a role in friendships, parenting, marriages, the workplace, and what is God’s plan of redemption?
Kaylis [27]

Answer: Sin is a disobedience to the commandment of God. Some people tag sin to mean "Satan Identity Number", which means that, sin makes one to be identified by Satan. It is always an unacceptable behaviour by the society.

In friendship sin plays a very negative role, because anything sin is always a foul play( unacceptable attitude), and if a friend's should identify such foul play from you, it may bridge the friendship.

In parenting, sin makes a parent to mislead the child, for instance, a prostitute may not be able to tell a child not to have sex, till he/she gets married. In parenting, sin plays a very bad role, and the children learn more fast from attitude seen from parents, if a parent is a thief, the child is likely to be a thief because children are always coached by the parents.

In marriages, sin is the major factor that break's up the marriage bond between partners. But if the two partners commit to sin together as partners, it may not affect the relationship, but they are tendencies that they have lost the blessings promised by God to married couples.

In the workplaces, sin hinders ones inheritance to promotion, because it's when you have done things the right way, you will be recognized. Though people cut corners to achieve an aim, but the down fall of a dinner is always like a storm on that sinner.

God's plan of redemption, is to bring us back to himself through Jesus Christ, that is why Jesus came to die for the sins of man.

Enabling legislation: a. creates an administrative agency and gives the agency powers. b. enables the citizens of the United Sta
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

A legislation is a law in a typical definition, to enable a law, that ,means you want to establish a law, you want to create a balance in a running system, there are defrauders that you want to stop or catch, you want to create an enabling environment were there is peace and harmony. All these are reasons behind enabling a legislation.

To bracket the question to the answers given, enabling a legislation, you are creating a congress, because some set of people must sit to create this legislation, option a is close to the answer but administrative agency doesn't not create a law, yes they are given power to carry out operations but not to create a law, that is why option c is the best to the question. Enabling a legislation, you are creating a congress, giving then right to oversee an issue and creating a law, because it is only such congress that can carry out the act of enabling a legislation.

When is it ok to leave a child unattended in a car? A. Only if they are younger than six-years-old B. Only if they are older tha
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

B. Only if they are older than six-years-old

Explanation:

<u>This question would need to be more specific, in regards of which State are we talking about.</u>

<u>I'll try to answer this question in the more general way considering all the United States state's laws considering this matter in a general way. </u>

In the United States every state has different laws regarding leaving children unattended in the car. Some states state that the children must be older than 6 year old and some of them say that they must be older than 9 year old. Some states don't even have laws regarding this matter.

However, <u>NONE</u> of the states say that it is legal or okay to leave children younger than 6-years-old, they also don't say it's okay as long as the windows are rolled down or the keys are not in the car.

Therefore, the correct answer <u>would be b. since it's the only one that is mentioned in some state's laws such as Florida, Illinois or Louisiana. </u>
