Download or read book A Crusade Against Salvation Ignorance written by Dr Julius Nang Kum and published by Ukiyoto Publishing. This book was released on 2023-11-16 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This long-awaited book of an extraordinary magnitude highlights some African minds vis-à-vis the Good News of our Creator. The book provides its readers with some amusing but educative instances of confusion, limitation, and ignorance observed in some very old African believers in their quest to deeply understand and embrace the words of God. Although the book comprises of six short but interesting chapters, these chapters are grouped under two main themes. The first theme is ‘expository’ and contains Chapter one. It identifies some causes that motivated many ancient Africans to know the Good News, and also reveals some instances of confusion and ignorance observed in those Africans in their struggle to understand the Good News in greater details. The second theme is ‘solution’ and contains chapter two, chapter three, chapter four, chapter five and chapter six. Chapter two examines some important religious and political events among the Greeks, the Jews and the Romans that happened before the coming of Christ into the world. Chapter three narrates Jesus’ life on earth based on the Bible and some insightful Historians. Chapter four highlights some important events that occurred after Christ. Chapter five pinpoints some benefits the world enjoys, thanks to the one-time presence of Christ on this earth and chapter six suggests some wise tools that can be used when spreading the Good News. This book is appropriate as a text for minds-building in the domains of, history, values and religion. It is intended for God’s friends, would be God’s friends and non God’s friends.

Download or read book The Debate on the Crusades 1099 2010 written by Christopher Tyerman and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2013-07-19 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David Hume, the eighteenth century philosopher, famously declared that ‘the crusades engrossed the attention of Europe and have ever since engaged the curiosity of man kind’. This is the first book length study of how succeeding generations from the First Crusade in 1099 to the present day have understood, refashioned, moulded and manipulated accounts of these medieval wars of religion to suit changing contemporary circumstances and interests. The crusades have attracted some of the leading historical writers, scholars and controversialists from John Foxe (of Book of Martyrs fame), to the philosophers G.W. Leibniz, Voltaire and David Hume, to historians such as William Robertson, Edward Gibbon and Leopold Ranke. Accessibly written, a history of histories and historians, the book will be of interest to students and researchers of crusading history from sixth form to postgraduate level and beyond and to cultural historians of the use of the past and of medievalism.

Download or read book Crusade Against the Grail written by Otto Rahn and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2006-09-22 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first English translation of the book that reveals the Cathar stronghold at Montségur to be the repository of the Holy Grail • Presents the history of the Papal persecution of the Cathars that lies hidden in the medieval epic Parzival and in the poetry of the troubadours • Provides new insights into the life and death of this gifted and controversial author Crusade Against the Grail is the daring book that popularized the legend of the Cathars and the Holy Grail. The first edition appeared in Germany in 1933 and drew upon Rahn’s account of his explorations of the Pyrenean caves where the heretical Cathar sect sought refuge during the 13th century. Over the years the book has been translated into many languages and exerted a large influence on such authors as Trevor Ravenscroft and Jean-Michel Angebert, but it has never appeared in English until now. Much as German archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann used Homer’s Iliad to locate ancient Troy, Rahn believed that Wolfram von Eschenbach’s medieval epic Parzival held the keys to the mysteries of the Cathars and the secret location of the Holy Grail. Rahn saw Parzival not as a work of fiction, but as a historical account of the Cathars and the Knights Templar and their guardianship of the Grail, a “stone from the stars.” The Crusade that the Vatican led against the Cathars became a war pitting Roma (Rome) against Amor (love), in which the Church triumphed with flame and sword over the pure faith of the Cathars.

Download or read book The Life and Legend of the Sultan Saladin written by Jonathan Phillips and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2019-08-20 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An engaging biography that offers a new perspective on one of the most influential figures of the Crusades In 1187, Saladin marched triumphantly into Jerusalem, ending decades of struggle against the Christians and reclaiming the holy city for Islam. Four years later he fought off the armies of the Third Crusade, which were commanded by Europe’s leading monarchs. A fierce warrior and savvy diplomat, Saladin’s unparalleled courtesy, justice, generosity, and mercy were revered by both his fellow Muslims and his Christian rivals such as Richard the Lionheart. Combining thorough research with vivid storytelling, Jonathan Phillips offers a fresh and captivating look at the triumphs, failures, and contradictions of one of the Crusades’ most unique figures. Bringing the vibrant world of the twelfth century to life, this book also explores Saladin’s complicated legacy, examining the ways Saladin has been invoked in the modern age by Arab and Muslim leaders ranging from Nasser in Egypt, Asad in Syria, and Saddam Hussein in Iraq to Osama bin Laden, as well as his huge appeal across popular culture in books, drama, and music.
