Abstract
The paper analyzes the various aspects of lighting, form, movement, texture, and volumetric in this formal analysis of the "Apostle" and "Madonna and Child". The paper discusses how by understanding the means in which limestone makes such detail possible in sculpture, the highly detailed relief of the chisel work reflects a divinity of lighting and movement for these religious icons. The paper looks at how the textural application of these sculptures identifies them as decorative embellishments for greater architectural form.

From the Paper
"As a messenger of the gospel, Paul viewed his mission as a great privilege. He also thought that the Jews had missed the rights and opportunities to be a messenger. Israel was to be God's messenger of good news for the world. The good news of God's grace was to be proclaimed among the Gentiles, by the Jews. This did not happen. Not only did the Jews reject the message and the Messenger, they rejected their calling to be a messenger as well. In the text of Isaiah, it is God who speaks saying, "Here I am." In Isaiah 52:7, the messenger is singular, "the feet of him." In Paul's citation, the messengers are plural. When Paul speaks of the messengers being sent, he wants the people to understand that God Himself, not the church, is sending the messengers of the gospel."

Abstract
This paper examines who the apostle Paul was, from his beginnings as the Jewish Pharisee, Saul of Tarsus, to his dramatic Damascus road conversion experience, to his profound spiritual insight as a man who walked in the spirit realm. Paul's mysticism is discussed.

From the Paper
"The apostle Paul was a man who embodied the Christian experience before Christ had even been crucified. Starting out life as Saul the Pharisee, a self-confessed enemy of Christians, Paul had a life-changing experience on the road to Damascus and converted to Christianity, becoming the very picture of how even the most contrary sinner can be changed through an encounter with the Lord. Once converted, Paul became one of the most committed Christians in Jesus' time, preaching the Gospel and enduring imprisonment at Rome..."

Abstract
In this article, an analysis of sections of the New Testament is provided. In this analysis, the writer demonstrates that the role played by Peter the Apostle in the work and for Christianity is one of primacy. The writer explains that this is due to Peter representing the primary model of Christian faith and behavior.

From the Paper
"In the New Testament, Peter the Apostle is one of the most significant of Jesus' twelve apostles. Simon ben Jonah is Peter's original name but when Jesus encountered Simon and his brother fishing, he said Thou art Simon the son of Jona thou shalt be called Cephas, which is interpreted Peter. There are numerous mentions of Peter, later Saint Peter, during his apostolic life in the New Testament Gospels and Acts. It is in ... "

Conclusion

From the Paper
"Paul has often been credited with making sure that the Christian faith became a universal faith. While there were many important names in the bible who helped to create the foundational universal nature of the Christian faith, Paul traveled the world to do it and the fact that he had been a rabbi gave his word a significant amount of creditability during the process. "
"Another contributor to the great significance that Apostle Paul had when it came to the Christian faith was his writing ability. While many of the Lord's followers were able to produce speeches and talks that were guided by the Lord, Paul had an extremely talented writing ability. This was during a time in which educated people who could write well were highly regarded, respected and revered. Paul was one of those people so much so that even from his house arrest status and his time in jail he was able to write down the things that he wanted the world to know about the Christian faith and have it spread in that manner .

Abstract
This paper explains Paul's theory that Jesus's sacrifice on the cross rendered Mosaic Law invalid. It suggests that the formation of this idea was the fundamental break between Christianity and Judaism.

From the Paper
This philosophic shift of thought both made the Jesus sect that emphasized Jesus life rather than his words more important in the Early Christian tradition as well as heralded a radical break between Christianity and the world that provided the fertile religious soil of thought from which it sprung.

Abstract
This paper examines what is known about the life of Saint Paul the Apostle. It further traces his conversion and subsequent travels. Also discussed is Paul's ministry and how he preached to the Gentiles about Jesus' teachings. The paper concludes by stating that historical references to Paul's early life, from his birth and prior to his conversion on the road to Damascus, are woefully lacking.

From the Paper
"The Bible's Acts of the Apostles tell us that Paul, the Gentile, was converted from Judaism on the road to Damascus; he remained for a time in Damascus following his Baptism before leaving for Arabia. It is believed that Paul remained in Arabia for some time, "possibly for a year or two to prepare himself for his future missionary activity." When Paul returned to Damascus, he again stayed for a time, preaching in the synagogues and telling all who would listen that "Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God." Historical references to Paul's early life--from his birth and prior to his conversion on the road to Damascus--are woefully lacking."

Abstract
This paper illustrates Paul's life from the first time he was mentioned in the Bible, at the stoning of Stephen, until his death in Rome. It also tells of his life as a Pharisee and his conversion to Christianity while on the road to Damascus. The paper shows in detail Paul's many travels and tells about the 17 Epistles that he wrote that later became books of the New Testament and explains why he wrote them and to whom they were written. Finally, the paper gives many examples of Paul's devotion to Jesus Christ and details the many times that he was imprisoned for his refusal to stop preaching the Gospel.

From the Paper
"If I had to rate all of the Apostles of the Bible on a scale from one to ten, I would give the Apostle Paul a fifteen. He was an Apostle among Apostles, a Christian among Christian, a powerful and influential man of God whose witness and message pierced the hearts of people everywhere to the core. When I think of the Apostle Paul and hear about his Holy Spirit filled power, I see in my mind a tall, handsome, and strong man, but interestingly enough, Paul was not much to look at. Paul was said to be a small and feeble man, near sighted, partially bald, eyes set close together, and his nose was somewhat crooked (All the Apostles 204). His unappealing looks aside, he mesmerized the hearers of his message with his fire of faith and zeal that flashed and flared in his eyes, this is why he is known as the greatest of Christians and profoundest of teachers (All the Apostles 205).
