When is it appropriate to make a sacrifice? Write a paragraph and give an example. 20 points
Answers
Answer:
Sacrifice sentence examples. I admire the effort and sacrifice you put into it. This sacrifice was the least he could do for his friend. It also told me he was willing to make a sacrifice for her protection.
Explanation:
In Old Testament times, ‘living sacrifice’ would be a contradiction in terms. The whole point of the sacrifice was that it was killed. Jago Wynne writes, ‘Our act of worship is no longer to bring a sacrifice, but to be one ourselves. We remain living. It is all of us that is being offered. Worship is about what I say with my tongue. It’s about what I watch… what I think… where I go with my feet.’
The sacrifice of your ‘loot’
Generous giving is another New Testament sacrifice. Paul encourages the sacrifice of generosity in contributing to the needs of others (v.8). We are to ‘share with God’s people who are in need’ (v.13). This is another sacrifice the writer of Hebrews says pleases God: ‘to share with others’ (Hebrews 13:16).
We are even to give generously to our enemies: ‘Our Scriptures tell us that if you see your enemy hungry, go buy that person lunch, or if he’s thirsty, get him a drink. Your generosity will surprise him with goodness’ (Romans 12:20, MSG).
Sacrifice of your love
In this passage Paul gives many examples of the sacrifice of loving service (vv.9–21).
The writer of Hebrews says, ‘do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased’ (Hebrews 13:16).
‘Doing good’ means giving up things that are not good. ‘Don’t let the world around you squeeze you into its own mould’ (Romans 12:2, J.B. Phillips). Although God only asks us to give up the bad stuff in our lives, it can feel costly to do so because that stuff is superficially attractive. Repentance is a very positive word, but at the time it may seem sacrificial.
Sacrificial love involves allowing God to transform us by a complete change. Our love must be sincere (v.9). The Greek word for ‘sincere’ means ‘without hypocrisy’ or literally ‘without play acting’ or ‘without a mask’.
Often relationships in the world are quite superficial. We all put up fronts or masks to protect ourselves. When we see governments doing this, we call it ‘spin’. When we do it ourselves, we call it ‘image’; we are projecting something. In effect we’re saying, ‘I don’t really like what I am inside, so I will pretend I am somebody different.’ I certainly did this in a major way before I was a Christian (and it carries on to some extent afterwards – though it shouldn’t).
If other people are doing the same then there are two ‘fronts’ or ‘masks’ meeting. The sad result is that the two real people never meet. This is the opposite of ‘sincere love’. Sincere love means taking off your mask and daring to reveal who you are. When you know that God loves you as you are, you are set free to take off your mask. This means that there is a completely new depth and authenticity in your relationships.
Paul urges Christians to live in harmony with one another and to be generous (v.13), hospitable (v.13), forgiving (v.14), empathetic (v.15) and to live at peace with everyone (v.18). It is a glorious picture of the Christian family into which God calls us, beckoning us into an atmosphere of love, joy, patience, faithfulness, generosity, hospitality, blessing, rejoicing, harmony, humility and peace; where good is not overcome by evil, but evil is overcome by good

The narrator claims to have several qualities that insane people don't have. Circle the qualities that he mentions. In your opinion, does having those qualities prove his sanity- or not? This is for The Tell Tale Heart:
Answers
Answer:
He says that he is cunning and that he acts wisely, as well as saying that he knows what he is doing. These are characteristics that he claims that crazy people don't have.
Explanation:
The narrator of "The Tell Tale Heart" exhibits strange, uncomfortable and crazy behavior in his murder plans and even the reasons for the murder make the reader see him as crazy. However, this is not what the narrator wants. He wants everything he says to be taken seriously by the reader and for this reason, he says that he has characteristics that crazy people cannot be astute, act wisely and know what he is doing.
This does not justify the narrator's sanity.

Answers
Explanation:
If you bring a runaway slave into your home and don't report it, the head of the household will be put to death. I'm guessing that during the time, kidnapping people for more labor work to be done was illegal, especially when it was done without permission by The Public Proclomation of the Major Domus.
The Way Society Changed:
Before the law was passed, this would be done constantly to keep possessions they didn't want to trade or to save currency (whatever currency was at the time). After it was passed, people had to start notifying the PPMD about the enslavements so their heads won't get hacked off.

Answers
Answer:
I cant give you the whole thing but an idea
Explanation:
People are ashamed to be part of the LGBTQ+ community because in some countries its against the law, its against some religions for example Christianity. Some people don't have accepting family and might be kicked out of the house for being part of the LGBTQ+ community
Answer:
fear of rejection, internalized homo/transphobia, and illegalization of homosexuality/transgenderism in certain countries are all good talking points
Explanation:
i'm sure that the third point is kind of obvious; if someone were to be openly lgbtq+ in a state were they aren't legally allowed to be proud, they could be imprisioned or killed.
though it may not be illegal worldwide, that doesn't mean that everyone who lives somewhere where it's legal to be lgbtq+ is accepting. people may be scared of getting rejected upon coming out. this could be losing friendships/romantic partners, getting kicked out by one's family, or becoming ostracized by society.
when one is in an environment that teaches them that it isn't okay to be lgbtq+, they are not going to feel happy with themself upon the realization that they may be gay/trans. they may have been taught at a young age that lgbtq+ people are gross or wrong in someway, making them refuse to accept that not only they are lgbtq+, but that is an okay thing to be.

In the context of the poem, the speaker gazes around at a meadow full of daffodils, without fully understanding how much the scene really means to him. He remembers the moment later on in his life and it brings him COMFORT. With this in mind, think about what the poet means when he speaks of wealth.
In this situation, wealth does not mean money.
Think about a precious memory you have. When you were experiencing that moment, did you know how precious it was? Did you know how much “wealth” it would bring you in the future?
The daffodils that the poet gazed at brought him ____ in days of sadness.
Fill in the blank with an accurate word and your choice will correspond with “wealth” and what it means in this poem.

Read the passage. What is a similarity between the narrator and her best friend, Karen?
Karen and I had been best friends since first grade. But I was a little jealous of her. Karen always seemed smarter and prettier than everyone. One day, we both put our names in for a dance contest. I practiced hard for weeks. I wanted to win the dance contest and beat Karen. On the day of the contest, I went on stage. I danced like I’d never danced in my life. The crowd clapped loudly. Then it was Karen’s turn. She missed some steps and even lost her balance at one point. I knew something was wrong—Karen was no klutz. I ended up winning the contest, but that didn’t even matter to me anymore. After the contest, I ran to Karen and asked her what was wrong. Karen told me that she had been dancing with a sprained ankle. I asked her why she did it. Karen looked ashamed. Then she said, “Because I wanted to beat you and prove that I’m just as good as you!” I was shocked. Here I was so jealous of her, and she wanted to beat me so badly that she went on stage with a sprained ankle!

What did hrothgar offer as recompense for Beowulf’s heroism in offering to help rid the west Danes of Grenada
Answers
Just correcting the spelling:
What did Hrothgar offer as recompense for Beowulf’s heroism in offering to help rid the west Danes of Grendel?
Answer:
Hrothgar offered Beowulf the bond of kinship and treasures.
Explanation:
"Beowulf" is one of the most famous epic poems of all time. It takes the name of its main character, the hero Beowulf, who fights and defeats three monsters: Grendel, Grendel's mother, and a dragon. Beowulf is "hired" by king Hrothgar to get rid of those monsters, and is offered an incredible reward.
Once Beowulf has killed Grendel and his mother, he is rewarded with the bond of kinship, a sword, an embroidered banner, breast-mail, and an adorned helmet. Hrothgar also gives Beowulf eight horses with gold bridles, and gives his men treasures and gold.
