<p>What does &ldquo;ex nihilo&rdquo; mean?&nbsp; How does the Christian view of Creation differ from the pantheist view?&nbsp; Is judgment according to works?&nbsp; Explain.</p>

<p>What is a succinct rendering of the Hebrew &ldquo;hesed&rdquo;?&nbsp; Comment on its use in Hos. 2:18-19.</p>

<p>Comment on the following:</p>

<p>&ldquo;I continue to hear the mantra that God is a God of love, not judgment. But this totally misunderstands God&#39;s nature and the purpose for judgment. It is because God is a loving God that He judges. For without judgment, there can be no deliverance. And those who love, seek to protect and deliver those under tyranny.</p>

<p>Supposing your young daughter rode a bike with the neighborhood children but then a bully came up, pushed her off the bike and started riding it himself. Would you, as a parent, not grab him by the ear and march him off to his parents? That is judgment, and it is because you love your children and hate tyranny that you act to deliver.</p>

<p>In a small, imperfect way, this shows the importance of judgment as an act of love and why God is both a God of love and judgment. And this shows how those who have the power to bring judgment but do nothing, in fact, do not love.&rdquo;&mdash;Dr. Colver</p>
