The Study of the Problem of Teaching Christian Moral Behavior

Christian living from its inception has been challenging by the relationship between learning and moral living. The problem of this study was involved with a statement of the principles of Christian Moral Behavior and the implementation of those principles in the life activity or behavior of the individual. It was the contention of the author that the teaching process has not attained its ultimate objective until the life has been reoriented

A Study of the Problem of Suffering and Chastening

The problem of this study was to show that the ideas of suffering and chastening individually are derived from more than one original term and are universal realities throughout biblical history on the basis of terminology which appears in most books of the Bible, that both suffering and chastening are realities in human experience, and that suffering comprises one of the essential instruments in the greater purpose of the experience of chastening. The reality of suffering is one of the most universal facts of human experience. From a child\u27s first suffering of hunger pangs to the experience of death this fact is a recurring reality of life. People will gladly spend a fortune to remove or alleviate suffering. If there is any work of grace available in the relation of suffering to chastening, the Christian should be alerted to them and use them

A Curriculum Resource Text for the Alcohol Unit in Public and Private Schools

The absolute worth of a human life and the social order in which that life finds identity and expression provide the base for an initiative to pursue the development of life\u27s highest potential with assurance in the future that corning generations may expect the same opportunity. The manifold evidences graphically documented relative to man\u27s inhumanity to man in our present age clearly invoke a spirit of urgency for realistic solutions now and not some far distant time

NGC6240: Merger-Induced Star Formation & Gas Dynamics

We present spatially resolved integral field spectroscopic K-band data at a resolution of 0.13" (60pc) and interferometric CO(2-1) line observations of the prototypical merging system NGC6240. Despite the clear rotational signature, the stellar kinematics in the two nuclei are dominated by dispersion. We use Jeans modelling to derive the masses and the mass-to-light ratios of the nuclei. Combining the luminosities with the spatially resolved Br-gamma equivalent width shows that only 1/3 of the K-band continuum from the nuclei is associated with the most recent star forming episode; and that less than 30% of the system's bolometric luminosity and only 9% of its stellar mass is due to this starburst. The star formation properties, calculated from typical merger star formation histories, demonstrate the impact of different assumptions about the star formation history. The properties of the nuclei, and the existence of a prominent old stellar population, indicate that the nuclei are remnants of the progenitor galaxies' bulges.Comment: 18 pages, 14 figures.
