Download or read book The Qur an Respond to the Dead Sea Scrolls Myth written by Major (R) Rashid Iqbal and published by . This book was released on 2020-02-23 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book will explore the innovative outlook of the early dynamics of the Jesus era while taking a lead from cross-referencing five major fields of the study. It is analyzed that in the light of latest development of the Dead Sea Scrolls, Judaism and Christianity have resolved many enigmas e.g. resolution of biblical disparity of the Last Supper episode by employing Essene's calendar of DSS community. On the other hand, Judaism has scientifically proven that no textual error or omission between existing and old cannons exists after carbon dating tests. However, certain empirical pieces of evidence related to hermeneutic meanings of several Qur'anic and biblical verses with respect to DSS have not been viewed. Qur'an does talk about Essenes and their community and links between the DSS community and Jesus do exist. A hypothetical scene is re-constructed taking aides from these factors while elaborating chain reaction of events during Jesus era, The Last Supper, The destruction of the Second temple and ultimately resurrection of the sleepers of the cave that became the catalyst of expansion of Christianity in Europe. With the help of this book, attention can be drawn in the field of DSS and early Christianity. It will open a new window as no serious input is made in the field of studying hermeneutic meanings of many Qur'ānic and biblical verses that contemplate many entwining interests of the sectarian tug of war in first-century Christianity. This book will prove the efficacy of consulting the Quran in resolving many conundrums of history.
Download or read book Gospel Centered Discipleship Foreword by Matt Chandler written by Jonathan K. Dodson and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2022-03-03 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Gospel-Rich, Reproducible Model for Making Disciples as Jesus Intended Biblical discipleship emphasizes encouragement, repentance, and spiritual growth—essential parts of the Christian life. However, well-meaning believers often struggle to follow Jesus, unaware their views are too legalistic, licentious, or individualistic. How can churches and Christians develop a healthy, successful path to disciple-making? In this second edition of Gospel-Centered Discipleship, Jonathan Dodson presents an effective, Spirit-led model for sanctification. Reminding readers that real discipleship is imperfect yet transformational, Dodson encourages Christians to engage more authentically with others as they grow in faith. Drawing from his own failures and successes while following Jesus, Dodson defines discipleship, describes the heart of a disciple, and gives practical guidance for mentor and peer-based discipleship as Jesus intended. Revised and Expanded: Includes three new chapters and new illustrations Applicable: Shows how discipleship can be practical and gospel-centered Theological: Addresses the Holy Spirit's involvement in discipleship Foreword by Matt Chandler: Author of The Explicit Gospel

Download or read book Unveiling the Messiah in the Dead Sea Scrolls written by Margaret S. King and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-01-20 with total page 515 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author is convinced that the early Byzantine Church deliberately cut out sections from an historic text to conceal the truth about the crucifixion of a man they were promoting as their Messiah. She solves the mystery by reconstructing the deleted sections. King pieces together what happened in Jerusalem during the trial and attempted crucifixion of the real Messiah and shows that the key passages that were tampered with are actually the missing link that connects the Dead Sea Scrolls to the New Testament Gospels. Using those passags and the history of the period, she identifies the figures mentioned in the Dead Sea Scrolls.

Download or read book Quranic Geography written by Dan Gibson and published by . This book was released on 2011-05-01 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gibson believes that four times in ancient history the Arab people united and poured out of the deserts to conquer other nations. The first is described in the Qur'an as the people of 'Ad. Gibson identifies 'Ad with the Edomites and the Hyksos supported by various archaeological proofs. Years later Arabia united again under the Midianites. Some centuries later the Nabataeans unite Arabia. The Qur'an calls them the people of Thamud. In 600 AD the Arabian Peninsula was united under the flag of Islam.But there is more to this book than a study of the four times when the Arabs demonstrated their greatness. This book also examines the geographical references in the Qur'an cross-referencing them with historical locations. The surprise comes when Gibson examines the Holy City of Islam, known as Mecca. Here Gibson finds evidence that the original Holy City was in northern Arabia in the city of Petra. He theorizes that during an Islamic civil war the Ka'ba was destroyed and the Black Rock moved to its present location. Gibson examines archaeological, historical and literary evidence that support this theory. This book contains many references, as well as some useful appendices including a 32 page time line of Islamic history from 550 AD - 1095 AD, and a 20 page annotated selected bibliography of early Islamic sources in chronological order from 724 AD - 1100 AD plus a list of many early Qur'anic manuscripts. Easy to read, fully referenced with many illustrations and photos.
Download or read book The Dead Sea Scrolls and the Roots of Christianity and Islam written by Robert Eisenman and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-01-31 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert Eisenman is the author of The James the Brother of Jesus and the Dead Sea Scrolls series (2012), The New Testament Code: The Cup of the Lord, the Damascus Covenant, and the Blood of Christ (2006), James the Brother of Jesus: The Key to Unlocking the Secrets of Early Christianity and the Dead Sea Scrolls (1998), The Dead Sea Scrolls and the First Christians (1996), Islamic Law in Palestine and Israel: A History of the Survival of Tanzimat and Shari'ah (1978), and co-editor of The Facsimile Edition of the Dead Sea Scrolls (1989) and The Dead Sea Scrolls Uncovered (1992).The Dead Sea scrolls were discovered in a desolate, and place called Qumran on the north-west shore of the Dead Sea, between 1946 and 1956. Over 970 documents were found in 11 caves. The scrolls have courted controversy ever since because of their Biblical and extra-Biblical content, and the question of who actually wrote theta continues to be disputed till this day.Because the scrolls were possessively kept secret for a long time, conspiracy theories arose with some claiming that the Vatican was suppressing information found in the scrolls that was damaging to the church, á la Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code. In reality, it was greed and a turf war between scholars that kept the scrolls hidden from the public-scholars wanted to be the first to interpret the texts, for obvious reasons. Today, you can view the fragments of the scrolls on the Internet."We said (the scrolls) should be open to anybody," said Prof: Eisenman. "It should he free for anyone religious, Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, or whomever to look at the scrolls for themselves. And the Israelis didn't want that. They wanted their scholars to see the documents and write the principal works so that their version would be the official interpretation."The Dead Sea Scrolls and the Roots of Christianity and Islam: Re-Erecting the Fallen Tent of David in the Land North of Damascus represents a small part of Prof. Eisenman's groundbreaking work in deciphering the hidden history and influence the Dead Sea Scrolls have had on the world's three major religions; Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.
