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 written by Jonathan K. Dodson and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2012-03-31 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reflecting on the practice of disciple making in young adult, college, graduate, and local church contexts, Jonathan Dodson has discerned some common pitfalls. For many, discipleship is reduced to a form of religious performance before God. For others, it devolves into spiritual license and a loose adherence to spiritual facts. Both approaches distort biblical motivations for Christian obedience and are in need of reform. By explaining various motivations for discipleship, Dodson charts a biblically faithful, grace-driven alternative. Additionally, he provides a practical model for creating gospel-centered discipleship groups—small, reproducible, missional, gender-specific groups of believers that fight for faith together. This book blends both theology and practice to inspire and equip Christians to effectively fight sin, keep Jesus central, and make gospel-centered discipleship a way of life. Both new and growing Christians will learn to trust the gospel in community as they fight together for holiness as well as how to start gospel-centered community groups in any local church.

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 God written by Alexander Waugh and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2004-05 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about God. Not just any god, but the god that created Adam and Eve; the god of Abraham, the god of the Jews; the god of the Christians; and the god of Islam---without a doubt, the most influential figure in the history of human civilization. But what do we really know about him? Who is he? Where did he come from? What does he look like? What sort of character does he have? What, if anything, does he eat? Does he have a family? In what ways can he be said to even exist at all? Alexander Waugh has been asking questions like these for as long as he can remember. Now, having drawn from an enormous range of sources, from the sacred books of the Torah, the Christian New Testament, and the Islamic Qur'an, from the Greek Apocrypha and the ancient texts of Nag Hammadi to the Dead Sea Scrolls, he has sought out the answers. Using material gleaned from the diverse writings of saints, rabbis, historians, prophets, atheists, poets, and mystics, he has molded his findings into a singular, striking biographical portrait of God. Erudite, perceptive, and entertaining, God reveals many startling and unexpected characteristics of the divine being. From the simple stories of Genesis and Job, explored from God's own viewpoint, to the prophecies of Muhammad and Sybil and the intricate philosophies of Newton and Nietzsche, Alexander Waugh has left no stone unturned in his compulsive mission to create a fascinating and complex portrait of God, as humans have claimed to understand him.
Download or read book Jesus and the Dead Sea Scrolls written by John Bergsma and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2019-09-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A major new work on the Dead Sea Scrolls, the oldest sacred documents of Judaism, which reveals their surprising connections to early Christianity. “A luminous treatment of a fascinating subject! Highly recommended!”—Scott Hahn, author of The Fourth Cup From award-winning scholar John Bergsma comes an intriguing book that reveals new insights on the Essenes, a radical Jewish community predating Christianity, whose existence, beliefs, and practices are often overlooked in the annuls of history. Bergsma reveals how this Jewish sect directly influenced the beliefs, sacraments, and practices of early Christianity and offers new information on how Christians lived their lives, worshipped, and eventually went on to influence the Roman Empire and Western civilization. Looking to Hebrew scripture and Jewish tradition, Bergsma helps to further explain how a simple Jewish peasant could go on to inspire a religion and a philosophy that still resonates 2,000 years later. In this enriching and exciting exploration, Bergsma demonstrates how the Dead Sea Scrolls—the world's greatest modern archaeological discovery—can shed light on the Church as a sacred society that offered hope, redemption, and salvation to its member. Ultimately, these mysterious writings are a time machine that can transport us back to the ancient world, deepen our appreciation of Scripture, and strengthen our understanding of the Christian faith. “An accessible introduction . . . This is a handy entry point for readers unfamiliar with Essenes or those interested in the Dead Sea Scrolls.”—Publishers Weekly
Download or read book History of the Prophets written by Ali Maulana Muhammad and published by Ahmadiyya Anjuman Ishaat Islam Lahore USA. This book was released on 2011-05-25 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deals with the lives of the prophets as they are given in the Holy Qur'an. The chief object is to remove the prevailing misconception that the Holy Qur'an takes its narratives from the Bible or Jewish and Christian traditions. For this purpose narratives in the Holy Qur'an are contrasted with their versions in the Bible or Jewish and Christian traditions. It will be found that wherever previous record has cast a slur on the character of a prophet, the Holy Qur'an has invariably vindicated it. The Holy Book has further brought out facts which enhance the moral value of these narratives and removed defects and contradictions which have found way into sacred history due to manipulation of facts or carelessness in recording them. This affords the clearest evidence that Divine Inspiration and not any previous record or tradition was the source from which the Prophet obtained information. By doing away with the profanity of sacred history, the Holy Qur'an has rendered immense service to the Bible itself. This is in accordance with its claim.
