A. Explain the concept of sin as "missing the mark." If God created us as sacred,
why do we make choices that distance us from God? Give one example of a sin of
commission and one example of a sin of omission. Explain how you think we can
come back to a close relationship with God after our sinful behavior has
separated us from him.

B. Identify one person detailed in this unit as an example of faith or Christian

Answer:

For several decades voices from various sectors of Christianity have decried the

loss of compelling language for sin. The atrophying of sin language is of no small

moment due to the organic connection between theological loci. Sin talk relates to

salvation-talk, human-talk, and Christ-talk. Further, the loss of compelling sin language

threatens to silence the church’s voice in the culture.

Both classic and contemporary theologies of sin, pursuing the essentialist methods

of the past, attempt to define sin and derive the fullness of the doctrine of sin from these

distillations. However, many of these renderings of sin are insufficiently attentive to the

importance of narrative modes of thought in theologizing. Specifically, they often almost

completely ignore the witness of the biblical narrative—both individual narratives and

the Bible’s overall narrative structure. Furthermore, they tend to appropriate the

narratives, and especially the narrative of the fall in Genesis 3, in ways that actually

subvert the narratives’ narrativity through historicizing, mythologizing, and

decontextualizing. They therefore provide thin descriptions of the human condition and

consequently offer distorted depictions of redemption, humanity, and the divine-human

relationship. These patterns can be seen in both feminist theologies that build their

definitions of sin from particular views of the human and evangelical theology which

derive their definition from biblical propositions.

In this dissertation we seek to begin to offer a narrative theology of sin by

providing a reading of Genesis 1-11 that attends to its literary character and seeks to

identify the reference point for sin and discern its development in the narrative. We will

discover that both the reference point for sin and the axis of its development relates to the

depiction of the human as the imago dei.

We will conclude by demonstrating that indexing the doctrine of sin to a

narratively construed imago dei offers a more robust language for sin and in particular,

offers a more natural bridge to Christ. Indeed, in the story of redemption, Christ becomes

the ultimate reference point for describing sin.

What effect did the mountains have on japan's efforts to become a united country?
Zepler [3.9K]
There are numerous mountains in Japan and they were an obstacle towards unifying the country. Since many parts of Japan waged wars against others, it was difficult to fight in other people's regions since they had the mountains to their advantage so there was a difficulty in uniting every part of Japan through wars, like it was done in numerous other countries.
