on making the Church pure again!
The Puritan movement emphasized Christianity to be more than just an intellectual agreement to a certain set of beliefs, rather it has to be accepted as a way of life. Evidently, this movement was too strict to the point that people viewed God to be angry and judgmental.
Describe how the church today could apply "puritanism" while maintaining biblical and sound theological position regarding God and Christianity.

"You'll Get Through This"
We have already covered about half of the life of the Church. Sadly, though, the first half was mostly characterized by dark times and troubles. However, the Church, the body of Christ, survived and even thrived through the dark times of history.
For this week's forum, write 3 lessons you have learned personally as you reflected on God's providence in the life of His Church.

Emperor Julian the Apostate
Comment on the following information.
Emperor Julian became emperor following the 3 sons of Constantine the Great. He grew up under the care of Constantine's family after his parents were killed by the 3-brother emperors who sought to kill every possible rival to the throne.
Julian and his half-brother Gallus grew up in an extended family who claimed to be Christian. Yet, the Christians he knew were the ones who killed his parents, imprisoned him and his brother, and forced him to learn the Scriptures without providing him reasons for doing so. This effort fueled his hatred of God and Christians. Thus his name, The Apostate.
