Abstract:
The utterances produced by people have speech acts, especially in the English teaching learning process. One of them is directive speech acts. The main aim of the study is to ascertain contrastively, in English and Arabic, how directive speech acts are represented in religious discourse and what the underlying syntactic structure. For the purpose of the investigation, the directive speech acts of two sermons, one in English and another in Arabic, were extracted and analyzed. A classification taxonomy, was created in order to categorize the different types of directive speech acts and determine

Abstract:
Christian Framework, Jewish Content? Jewish School Sermons in Galicia The article is devoted to so-called “exhortations,” school sermons delivered to Jewish school youth in Galicia since the 1880s by Jewish teachers of religion. The author traces the roots of these sermons by analyzing the legal framework and the realms of Galician school that since the late 1860s became non-confessional. Sermons were part of religious education which in theory should have been provided to all children. The article shows that the Jewish exhortations, while retaining Jewish content, resembled Christian sermons

Today, we are facing the decline of institutional religion. In Finland, the decrease in membership of the mainstream Evangelical Lutheran Church has been unusually rapid over the past few years, but, at the same time, the variety of religious supply has significantly increased. In addition to non-Christian spiritual and religious alternatives, innumerable lay movements, functions and practices are also offering their services within the Christian field, both in non-denominational circles and in those more or less linked to the mainstream church.

Abstract:
In the public debate on the English involvement in the War of the Spanish Succession, and over time, on the peace that would end the prolonged war, sermons occupy a special place among the various political mediums of the time. After briefly reviewing the main features of the political controversy, the present study specifically examines two political sermons by the English churchman John Adams (1662–1720), in which the discourse on balance of power is organically present, reinforcing the theme of the need for a “good peace”. In Adams’ sermons, published in 1709 and 1711, respectively, the not

Akkerman and Arthur Bakker’s theory about boundary crossing, this article analyses religious meaning-making in sermons from Christian services in the context of international sports events. The article demonstrates that potential learning mechanisms at this boundary are more effective when not only seeking harmonious coordination and legitimisation but also bringing out differences and confrontation.

Abstract: This article argues that William Barnes looked back to the fourth-century Christianity of his local Dorset to explore questions of faith, language, and nation. In his poetry and still unpublished sermons, Barnes spoke directly to his community in an Old West Saxon Dorset dialect about the early Christianity of their ancient ancestors. I argue that this early Dorset Christianity offered Barnes a way out of nineteenth-century Christian schisms and was also congruous with his interests in the linguistic and religious practices, myths, folklore, and archaeology of Dorset.

This technique is a characteristic she incorporates in each of her succeeding novels.

The argument is that racial inequality remains entrenched because race has become religionized in the United States. Indeed, a religion with unique beliefs, practices, and organizations has developed around whites’ racial dominance. This religion, which we call the Religion of Whiteness (ROW), feeds on racial inequality. Race and racial injustice have not receded from American life because t

Religion was still omnipresent in England, but even before the great shock of the Reformation and the ‘stripping of the altars’ it was confronted by a variety of challenges. With many of these the inherited orthodox tradition could cope: indeed, it proved to be enduring and, in spite of persecution, a surprisingly long-lived one.
