Download or read book Terror in the Name of God written by Jessica Stern and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-13 with total page 623 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For four years, Jessica Stern interviewed extremist members of three religions around the world: Christians, Jews, and Muslims. Traveling extensively—to refugee camps in Lebanon, to religious schools in Pakistan, to prisons in Amman, Asqelon, and Pensacola—she discovered that the Islamic jihadi in the mountains of Pakistan and the Christian fundamentalist bomber in Oklahoma have much in common. Based on her vast research, Stern lucidly explains how terrorist organizations are formed by opportunistic leaders who—using religion as both motivation and justification—recruit the disenfranchised. She depicts how moral fervor is transformed into sophisticated organizations that strive for money, power, and attention. Jessica Stern's extensive interaction with the faces behind the terror provide unprecedented insight into acts of inexplicable horror, and enable her to suggest how terrorism can most effectively be countered. A crucial book on terrorism, Terror in the Name of God is a brilliant and thought-provoking work.

Download or read book Spiritual Terrorism written by Boyd C. Purcell and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2008-04-09 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spiritual Terrorism is about theimpact of fear-based religion on people's lives who have been spiritually abused by a negative conception of God through eternal hell-fire preaching and teaching. The doctrine of eternal punishment in literal fire is at the heart of many forms of spiritual abuse and all forms of spiritual terrorism which is the most extreme form of spiritual abuse. This book effectively explains the symbolic use of fire in the Holy Bible and other Holy Books. The common misunderstanding of the metaphorical usage of fire is the primary cause of spiritual terrorism. Dr. Purcell clarifies the confusion over the Christian doctrine of salvation by grace and judgment which is based on the deeds of lifegood or bad. This allows readers to grasp the liberating truth that people are totally free to live their lives but are also totally accountable, at the end of life, for how they have lived their lives. God will ultimately teach universal empathy and bring about perfect justice for all without violating anyone's free will. Spiritual abuse has the potential to affect all stages of life: in the womb, childhood, youth, young adults, older adults, end of life, and bereavement after the deaths of loved ones. Spiritual abuse may also affect all areas of life: marriage/divorce, emotional/mental/physical abuse, medical treatment or refusal of such treatment for self and children, and domestic and international terrorism. All major world religions are addressed: Judeo/Christianity, Islam, and the Eastern ReligionsBuddhism and Hinduism. Included as well are Native American Beliefs. There is a theme running through all major religions of God's unconditional love, amazing grace, infinite mercy, perfect justice, and a universal homecoming.

Download or read book Killing Christians written by Tom Doyle and published by HarperChristian + ORM. This book was released on 2015-03-17 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Could you retain your faith even if it meant losing your life? Your family’s lives? To many Christians in the Middle East today, a “momentary, light affliction” means enduring only torture instead of martyrdom. The depth of oppression Jesus followers suffer is unimaginable to most Western Christians. Yet, it is an everyday reality for those who choose faith over survival in Syria, Iran, Egypt, Lebanon, and other countries hostile to the Gospel of Christ. InKilling Christians, Tom Doyle takes readers to the secret meetings, the torture rooms, the grim prisons, and even the executions that are the “calling” of countless Muslims-turned-Christians. Each survivor longs to share with brothers and sisters “on the outside” what Christ has taught them. Killing Christians is their message to readers who still enjoy freedom to practice their faith. None would wish their pain and suffering on those who do not have to brave such misery, but the richness gained through their remarkable trials are delivered—often in their own words—through this book. The stories are breathtaking, the lessons soul-stirring and renewing. Killing Christians presents the dead serious work of expanding and maintaining the Faith.

Download or read book Jesus the Terrorist written by Peter Cresswell and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2009-12-10 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the shocking truth: Jesus was a zealot who wanted to be King of Israel. The apostles and disciples were members of his family, by blood and by marriage, and they went on to wage a war against Rome. Far from converting, Saul, the false apostle, remained malicious and vindictive to the end. Saul invented Christianity, borrowing the rituals of a pagan religion, Mithraism. The gospels are a deliberately scrambled version of Jewish zealot propaganda with characters, who were Jewish warriors, stolen and subverted by Christian writers.

Download or read book Ancient Texts for New Testament Studies written by Craig A. Evans and published by Hendrickson Publishers. This book was released on 2005 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the daunting challenges facing the New Testament interpreter is achieving familiarity with the immense corpus of Greco-Roman, Jewish, and pagan primary source materials. From the Paraphrase of Shem to Pesiqta Rabbati, scholars and students alike must have a fundamental understanding of these documents' content, provenance, and place in NT interpretation. But achieving even an elementary facility with this literature often requires years of experience, or a photographic memory. Evans's dexterous survey-a thoroughly revised and significantly expanded edition of his Noncanonical Writings and New Testament Interpretation - amasses the requisite details of date, language, text, translation, and general bibliography. Evans also evaluates the materials' relevance for interpreting the NT. The vast range of literature examined includes the Old Testament apocrypha, the Old Testament pseudepigrapha, the Dead Sea Scrolls, assorted ancient translations of the Old Testament and the Targum paraphrases, Philo and Josephus, the New Testament pseudepigrapha, the early church fathers, various gnostic writings, and more. the NT, and a comparison of Jesus' parables with those of the rabbis will further save the interpreter precious time.

Download or read book Islam Saves Jesus written by Mohamed Moussa Ghounem and published by Muslim School. This book was released on 2022-12-17 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction: True Love Christian: Is it True that Muslims Love Jesus Ten Times More than Christians? Muslim: Yes, Islam Teaches Unconditional Love For Jesus Christ. Modern Christianity Obliviously, Selfishly, and Impulsively Teaches Hate Towards the Original Jesus Christ. Christian: How Does Christianity Teach Hate towards Jesus Christ Compared to Islam Loving Jesus? Christians Love Jesus Because Christ Died on the Cross For us! Muslim: The Ten Ways Muslims Love Jesus Compared to Christians Hating Christ are: 1) Islam Teaches Jesus Was Not Murdered, Christians Need Jesus to have been Killed Like a Guilty Criminal Needing Someone Innocent to Take Their Crime. Muslims Love Jesus so we Accept Our Own Sins and Don’t Teach Murdering Someone Innocent For Our Own Debt to Our God. Would You Murder a Rich Relative Because of Selfish Greed For Their Wealth Or Would You Take Responsibility For Your Own Poverty and Love the Relative? Christian: Wow, insisting Jesus was Murdered so that Christians Are Not Responsible For Their Sins is Selfish. But Didn’t Jesus Voluntarily Die For Our Sins So Anyone Who Accepts Christ As Their Savior Would Go to Heaven? Muslim: Jesus Spent 33 Years Avoiding Death. Since Birth, Jesus Christ Moved to Egypt and Hid from Jews Trying to Kill him. Even When Caught On the Cross Jesus Begged God to Save him. Jesus Happily and Lovingly Wanted to Live As Islam Teaches. 2) Suicide is a Sin In Every Religion, Islam Teaches that Jesus Did Not Allow himself to be Killed On the Cross. It is Hateful to Say Jesus Sinned by Killing himself On the Cross. Islam Loves Jesus By Teaching he was Not Suicidal. Christian: If Christianity Teaches Jesus Committed Suicide and We Are Supposed to be Like Christ, Does that Means Christians Should Commit Suicide? Mohamed Ghounem 4 Muslim: The Original Jesus did not Teach Suicide. Islam Lovingly Restores the Original Message of Jesus Christ. Only One Entity Would Insist On Christ Dying to be disconnected from the Commandments of God: Satan. 3) Islam Lovingly Saves Jesus From Satanism. Christians Naively Spread the Deceptive Teachings of the Devil by Saying Jesus Was God and God Died and We No Longer Have to Obey the Laws of God because of God’s Death. Christian: The Two Groups Who Want the World to Believe that God Died so We are Free From the Laws Our Creator are: Demons and Christians? Muslim: Yes, Since Humans Were Created, Satan has been trying to Deceive us and Get us to Disobey the Laws of God. 4) A Fourth Way Muslims Love Jesus More than Christians Is Respecting the Original Teachings of Jesus, Being Compliant to the Laws of God as Jesus Was. Thus Muslims are More Christ Like, Displaying More Love to Jesus Than Christians. Christian: The Bible is Not Central to the Christian Faith so Not Obeying the Laws in the Bible is not Evil or Hateful towards Jesus. We Still Love Jesus Without the Bible Laws. Muslim: If You Love Jesus, then You Want to Learn About Jesus from the Words of Jesus himself, not Your Parents or Preacher… Can You Say You Love Ice Cream without ever tasting Ice cream? If You Say You Love College without Reading Any of the Books Or Passing Any of the Classes, then You Can Make the Claim to Love College But in fact You would be a Failure. If You Truly Love College, then You would Do Your Best to Study and Pass the College Classes. This is the Difference of the True Love Muslims Have for Jesus compared to Christians. It is Immaturity to Love College without being a College Student, just as Loving Jesus without being a disciple of Christ. Christian: Jesus is a Jew, how Can You Love Jesus if Muslims Hate Jews? P a g e | 5 5 Muslim: Jesus was actually a Muslim: “One who Submits his Will to God” Muslims have Loved Jews for Centuries, with the exception of the most recent century’s geo-political conflict with Israel. Jesus was Sent to the Jews and according to Islam, was Successful, but Christianity Teaches Jesus was a Failure: 5) Islam Loves Jesus More than Christianity Because Jesus Is a Proven Messiah in the Holy Quran Whereas Jesus is a false, convicted, and murdered man in the Bible. Islam Saves the Entire Mission of Jesus For Jews, Whereas Christianity Repels Jews by Claiming Jews are Christ Killers and that Jesus was a flesh god. Christian: Jesus Proved to Be God by Coming Back to Life after Being Dead for 3 Days. Muslim: Neither Jesus or God died for a minute or an hour or a day or half a week, God Can Not be Killed, and God Saved Jesus. Furthermore, Coming Back to Life After Assumed Death is Not Proof of Divinity Because there Are Multiple humans in the Bible who Died and Came Back to Life. 6) To Insult Jesus as a flesh god from the perspective of Monotheists is the same as sentencing Jesus to Death. This is What Led Jews to Crucify Jesus. Islam Loves Jesus More than Christians By Stating Jesus was not a flesh god, thus Saving Jesus from Murder. Christian: Jesus Says He is God in the Bible! Muslim: If You Base Your Faith on Jesus Being God, and the Central Basis of this Claim is the Bible, then the Bible is Central to your Faith. Since the Bible is Central to Christianity, the Majority of Verses in the Bible that Say Jesus is Not God Should Be Equally Adhered. 7) Muslims Love Jesus More than Christians Because We Do Not Claim Jesus is a Liar. The Original Language of Jesus is Aramaic, When the Bible was Translated to Other Languages, there were Many Translation Errors, that Have Jesus Contradicting Himself. Christians Pick and Chose the Self Serving Verses in the Bible then Claim the Bible Mohamed Ghounem 6 is not Central to Christianity when Verses are Presented in Contradiction to Modern Christian Divinity or Salvation Compared to What the Original Jesus Taught. Islam Saves the True Teaching of Jesus and Does not Put the Pagan Greek Translations into the Mouth of Our Loved Jesus. How Can You Say “Jesus Will Save You if You Know Jesus” When You Don’t Even Know Jesus and In Fact Teach Hating the Original Christ? Christian: It Seems From Your Perspective that Christians Really Hate Jesus! Muslim: Most Christians Innocently Hate Jesus. Their Intention is Loving Jesus but Their Impulsive Self Serving Thoughts and Actions Are Actually Hateful to Jesus. Some Christians Actually Intentionally Use Jesus as a Symbol of Hate. 8) Islam Saves Jesus from White Supremacists. Muslims Love Jesus More Than Christians Because We Don’t Use Christ As a Symbol of Hate. From the Crusaders to the Nazis to the Modern KKK, Christ is the Central Figure Used to Hate or Kill Everyone who Doesn’t Appear Like Christ. Islam Saves Jesus from These Hate Followers by Not Associating a Color to Christ and Teaching All Colors Are Equally Loved. Christian: Islam is a Religion of Terror and Muslims Are Terrorists! Muslim: Islam is a Religion of Love, We Respect and Understand Your Opinions. We Understand You Were Raised Your Entire Life Hearing and Seeing on the News Selective Coverage of Christians and Muslims and We Understand You were Only Taught Selective Verses from the Bible. 9) Many Christians Who Were Raised Learning About the Modern Jesus instead of the Original Jesus and Taught to Have a Bias Towards Islam, Become Atheists. The Reason For Their Atheism is threefold: A) With the Advent of the Internet, Christians Got an Onslaught By Skeptics and Are Presented With the Numerous Translation Errors. B) Without Obeying the Laws of God, Christians Are In Essence Taking Steps Away from God, thus God Takes Steps Away from Christians. P a g e | 7 7 C) With Christians Being Raised Believing All Other People and Religions Are Inferior, then they Feel No Alternative Other than Atheism. Islam Saves Jesus from Leading his Believers into Atheism. Islam Breathes Loving Faith Back into the Original Jesus so the Followers of Christ Can Remain Believers of God. Furthermore, It Can Be Interpreted By Modern Bibles That Jesus Suffered Atheism, On the Cross Christ Cried To God “Why Have You Forsaken Me?” Islam Loves Jesus More than Christianity Because Islam Teaches Christ Was Not Forsaken and Did Not Suffer Death, Thus Not Suffering from Atheism. Christian: All Humans Are Sinners and All Sins Are Equal and the Only Way to Cleanse our Sins is With the Sinless Blood of Jesus. No Human Can Be Perfect Except Jesus, that is Why We Need Jesus! Muslim: Both the Bible and Public Society Prove that All Sins Are Not Equal. There Are Dozens of Laws in Both the Bible and in Modern Civilization and the Redemption of these Various Laws Differ Greatly From Either A Fine Spanning All the Way to Death. It’s Agreed that No Human is Perfect, Only God is Perfect, But Cleansing the Sins, Paying Your Debt to Society and God for the Sins Is Possible and Has Been Done For Thousands of Years Without the Blood of Jesus. 10) Islam Saves Jesus From Pessimism Associated to Christ that Humans Cannot “Try” to Be Righteous. It is Hateful For Christians to Teach that All sins, whether Small or Large, Can Not be Forgiving by Our Loving God without the Blood of God. Islam Teaches that God is More Loving to Humans and Jesus By Stating that God is Forgiving For Many Sins in Easy Ways, Not Requiring Blood. As In Society, Some Infractions Are Forgiven With a Minor Fine. Also, Some Humans Spend Their Entire Life Obeying the Laws and Do Not Get Any Fines or Arrests or Having to Serve Any Time. Thus Islam Saves Jesus from the Illegal Claim that All Crimes Are Equal and the Bleak Cynicism that Humans Can’t Do Their Best to Obey the Laws and the Cruel Hateful Accusation that God Can Not Forgive Any Sins Without the Blood and Murder of Christ. God and Islam Are More Loving than That. Mohamed Ghounem 8 Christian: What Specific Evidence do you have On the Ten Ways Muslims Love Jesus More than Christians? Muslim: Yes, We Appreciate Your Time in Learning the Historical and Scriptural Proof that Muslims Love Jesus Ten times More than Christians

You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside.

Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Download or read book God s Answer to 21st Century Terrorists written by K. McKelvey Harvey K. McKelvey and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2009-11 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do we have terrorists today? Yes we do. Can we identify them? Yes we can. Are there political and religious terrorists today? Yes there are. Where can we find them today? Over the world, and in every nation. Do we have terrorists on the mission field? Yes we do. What are some of their actions so we may identify them? They burn churches and homes of Christians, they kill whole congregations, and they behead children going to and from school. They kill and imprison pastors and Christian leaders. What recourse do the Christians have? Until now they have been told to endure for God will avenge. But I say no, you have the power to stop this foolishness in its tracks. They can receive and believe the word, so that these terrorists become Christians just as Saul became Paul and the Syrian army became friendly with Israel. This is a "believing God thing." Not a man thing. In some nations of the world like in central Asia there are over 4 billion lost souls. The percentage of evangelical Christians among all of them is less than 5%. Jesus as we all know is coming soon, how are we to reach these before he comes? God's Answer to 21st Century Terrorists is a memorable account of a fresh historical perspective with unforgettable characters and with a touch of the supernatural. The apostle Paul was a First Century terrorist, killing and imprisoning Christians. The Lord Jesus Christ, Head of the Church, gave us an object lesson on how to win the terrorist. We need to use His plan today. Too many Christians are being slaughtered; their churches burned and whole congregations are threatened with violence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Apostles' Creed is a treasure trove of basic Christian beliefs and wisdom that helps ensure the integrity and orthodoxy of our faith.

What Christians Ought to Believe is ideally suited for both the classroom and the church setting to teach beginning students and laypersons the basics of what Christians ought to affirm if they are to be called Christians.

Download or read book The Global Politics of Jesus written by Nilay Saiya and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-05-20 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unique, timely, and wide-ranging book that formulates and applies an ethic of Jesus to the realm of global politics. Since the fourth century, Christians have wrestled with how they should interact with political authority. The most common view holds that while their ultimate loyalty rightfully belongs to God, Christians also have allegiance to their countries and a moral responsibility to transform their political systems. In The Global Politics of Jesus, Nilay Saiya provides a normative critique of this conventional view and advances an alternative approach. While it may seem natural for the church to fervently engage in political life and cultivate a close relationship with the state, Saiya argues that such beliefs result in a "paradox of privilege." As he shows, when the church yields to the seduction of political power when enjoying the benefits of an alliance with the state, it struggles to adhere to its tenets, and when it resists the allure of state power, it does its best work. This unique and wide-ranging book examines the paradox of privilege in some of the most important areas of global politics and considers its implications for the church itself.

Download or read book Dear Christians Christ Sins written by Mohamed Moussa Ghounem and published by MuslimSchool.com. This book was released on 2022-12-17 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love verses hate, God verses Satan, Islam verse Christianity, Muslim Jesus verses Christian Jesus. Christians are taught that Muslims hate Jesus, therefore Muslims are children of Satan. The opposite is True, Muslims Love Jesus, and as this book will detail, the Jesus Christians follow: “Christ” is the son of Satan. Therefore Christians hate God’s Jesus because instead they choose to follow Satan’s Christ. The crossroads between God’s Jesus and Satan’s Christ is the crucifixion. God Saved Jesus from the Cross as Islam Teaches, whereas Satan wants Christians to believe that Christ was Killed on the cross. This is the main difference between Islam Verse Christianity and God Verses Satan. If Jesus is a flesh god that died on the cross to remove all human sin, then rose again to life as Christians Teach, then this Christ Produces Seven Deadly Sins, Just as Satan wants. The Muslim teaching of Jesus is that God loves Jesus and therefore Saved Jesus from death on the Cross and that Jesus is the Messiah, not a flesh god. Therefore the Muslim Jesus is Loved and Saved and Counters Satan’s Christ, Cleansing the Seven Deadly Sins of Christ.
