Which characteristics are common between First Church in the novel In His Steps and the church in Laodicea described in the foll

owing passage (Mark all that apply.)? "And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God; I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches." (Revelation 3:14-22) Both are worldly. Both are conscious of the needs of their fellow Christians. Both have a lukewarm relationship with God. Both are satisfied with the status quo. Both are truly dedicated to God in all things.

Does Samuel Sewall appeal more to logic or to emotion in "The Selling of Joseph: A Memorial"? Back up your response with evidenc
Bond [7527]

While there is a mix of logic and emotion present, the primary focus is on logic. Sewall articulates clearly that true adherence to the Bible should not allow for the acceptance of slavery or the mass killing of individuals. Acting in accordance with Christian principles entails emulating Christ and abiding by biblical teachings. There is no valid justification for Joseph's slavery, yet people still partake in similar practices as those who enslaved him. Sewall denounces human trafficking and questions the morals of those slave owners who consider themselves religious followers. By using Joseph's situation, he highlights the inconsistencies in their actions. Additionally, he references various biblical texts to bolster his argument against the act of stealing humans. His logic effectively exposes the hypocrisy of those who choose to overlook their contradictory beliefs and encourages self-reflection on their staunch convictions.

in 75-100 words, describe the mood evoked by the ending of "marigolds." how does the author evoke that mood?
Flura [7041]
The narrative stimulated a range of feelings among the main characters. Initially, Lizabeth was an immature girl who grew due to the unfolding events. She felt guilt over the devastation of Mrs. Lottie's immaculate garden during their struggles with poverty. Additionally, she was perplexed by her strong father's tears.
Ultimately, Lizabeth came to understand that life is inherently imperfect and that she must learn to navigate and embrace it.

Which elements keep you most interested in a fictional book? Check any that apply.
Naddik [7538]
The elements that captivate my attention in a non-fiction book vary based on its genre. For example, a mystery book would engage readers if it includes an unresolved enigma, whereas an adventure narrative might attract readers if it draws on actual historical events or factual occurrences related to the story. Thus, when it comes to fiction, I can find interest in various elements depending on the book type.
