Book Synopsis Misquoting Jesus by : Bart D. Ehrman

Download or read book Misquoting Jesus written by Bart D. Ehrman and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-06 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When world-class biblical scholar Bart Ehrman first began to study the texts of the Bible in their original languages he was startled to discover the multitude of mistakes and intentional alterations that had been made by earlier translators. In Misquoting Jesus, Ehrman tells the story behind the mistakes and changes that ancient scribes made to the New Testament and shows the great impact they had upon the Bible we use today. He frames his account with personal reflections on how his study of the Greek manuscripts made him abandon his once ultraconservative views of the Bible. Since the advent of the printing press and the accurate reproduction of texts, most people have assumed that when they read the New Testament they are reading an exact copy of Jesus's words or Saint Paul's writings. And yet, for almost fifteen hundred years these manuscripts were hand copied by scribes who were deeply influenced by the cultural, theological, and political disputes of their day. Both mistakes and intentional changes abound in the surviving manuscripts, making the original words difficult to reconstruct. For the first time, Ehrman reveals where and why these changes were made and how scholars go about reconstructing the original words of the New Testament as closely as possible. Ehrman makes the provocative case that many of our cherished biblical stories and widely held beliefs concerning the divinity of Jesus, the Trinity, and the divine origins of the Bible itself stem from both intentional and accidental alterations by scribes -- alterations that dramatically affected all subsequent versions of the Bible.

Book excerpt: For many Christians, words like 'theology' and 'doctrine' taste dusty in our mouths: we don't immediately see how they're relevant to our daily life. But good theology should be thrilling: it tells us about our creator, sustainer, and redeemer and what it means to live in his world. That's what this course aims to do: it's serious theology, simply expressed, and concretely applied to help 'ordinary Christians' better love God, his people, and his world.The course is framed by an opening chapter on the gospel. It goes on to explore the Trinity, the person and work of Christ and of the Spirit, the Bible, creation, church, end times, and discipleship. Each chapter includes additional resources, including a primary source from church history and a hymn or song of praise.Contents1. Family as mission-field and mission-base2-3. Marriage: what it is4.

Book Synopsis Authorized by : Mark Ward

Download or read book Authorized written by Mark Ward and published by Lexham Press. This book was released on 2018-01-24 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The King James Version has shaped the church, our worship, and our mother tongue for over 400 years. But what should we do with it today? The KJV beautifully rendered the Scriptures into the language of turn-of-the-seventeenth-century England. Even today the King James is the most widely read Bible in the United States. The rich cadence of its Elizabethan English is recognized even by non-Christians. But English has changed a great deal over the last 400 years—and in subtle ways that very few modern readers will recognize. In Authorized Mark L. Ward, Jr. shows what exclusive readers of the KJV are missing as they read God's word.#In their introduction to the King James Bible, the translators tell us that Christians must "heare CHRIST speaking unto them in their mother tongue." In Authorized Mark Ward builds a case for the KJV translators' view that English Bible translations should be readable by what they called "the very vulgar"—and what we would call "the man on the street."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you have some penetration to see Jesus’ teaching in four Gospels, you know that Jesus doesn’t call Jehovah as God or Father. God or Father seen with the word of truth are not different expression with a morality, a true self, a void, the sky, nothing said in the Oriental Philosophy. Over 2000 years the Christian has been called or believed as “pray as name of Jesus, Amen” but captured in the religion fence, turn away their faces from the word of truth, the true Jesus’ teaching and volunteering a slave action cheated by the false of Jehovah with begging and imploring as if the key of relief for Jesus’ death of cross and the revival miracle, they don’t live the true love or the life mercy in not escaping from all the biding or scare. Now we have to live in the true freedom and happiness going beyond living and death getting a perceive treasure likely to Jesus escaping from mind illusion with the treasure map of the word given to us by Jesus, the way, the truth and the life as the light drives out the darkness. Being spiritually awakened, that is, you see the God, meet and this is the relief to enter into the God’s heaven with the forever life. Reviews: “Jesus is not Jehovah’s son” is very awful and shocking idea. What they just believe the different of Jehovah and Paul is like to get a graph from a horn bush. Luther couldn’t change the religion but this book called the big revolution over the religion. -- Man Sung Park, Carpenter Jesus is not the Son of Yahweh (Jehovah) is the one of the greatest book that defines the truth that Jesus want to teach easily and clearly. As the writer say, if we would know the truth that teaches by Jesus, the Christianity and Buddhism would meet each other and the human would finds the true freedom and happiness which is high dimension over the religion. -- Seung Taek Lee, Prof of University of Foreign Studies This book is to understand easily for Christianity problem that views the reader’s mind deeply. This book is not picked up various stories but is expressed what the writer who realized the truth felt and saw through in deep mind. The Gospel in Brief written by Leo Tolstoy is even for the starting to question for Christianity but this book is important to complete Jesus’ teaching. --Jung Bu Jo, Student of Theological School Read this book, what oppose other’s religions and we call heresy or Satan in same religions is because they all don’t know the truth. I respect more Jesus, foresighted leader realized, after read this book. I hope it’s not only all the people find the order and the peace met each other, but also all the religion by this book. --Ye Jin Lee, Teacher of Middle School Why don’t Theologians and Ministers know this contents yet? They can’t find the truth to know easily like this for 2000 years long. The refinding the truth in Jesus’ teaching is the most popular, important event in the world and it will be a bright light for all human. --Woo Nyun Lee, Farmer I went church for 50 years long, but in my mind I always got a question and a doubt. However, this book clears all the question and doubt. I’ve never heard the book detailed and lectures quoted like this Bible for Jesus’ Teachings. I knew now that praying in the Church “the Apostles’ Creed” or the doctrine of Christ are not fixed anything else. -- Jun Su Kim, Rep. Publishing Firm. “Jesus said if the person who would eat my flesh and blood, they will live forever.” It does not mean that if they believe the blood split from Jesus and the revival of Jesus, they got a forgiveness and a relief and go to the heaven. This book defines that if they follow Jesus’ teaching and get the new life beyond the life and death. -- Chang Suk Kim, Homemaker It’s the first time to see the uninteresting and difficult book. It’s uneasy to understand and a lot to accept in my mind. But it’s a book of low balance to blame whom or to support. I am going to compare the contents of this book and t
