The Wrong Messiah by Nick Page Pdf

He came from the wrong social class, the wrong place and the wrong profession. He ate with the wrong people, championed the wrong causes and attracted the wrong kind of supporters. He even spoke with the wrong accent. In fact everything about Jesus of Nazareth was wrong. How could this odd-job man be God's Messiah?To the authorities he was a dangerous rebel; to the pious he was scandalously unorthodox. Even his family thought he was mad. But somehow this builder from 'up north' - this outrageous, unorthodox, rebellious teacher and miracle worker - changed the world. In this illuminating new biography, Nick Page strips away centuries of misrepresentation and myth to reveal the real personality portrayed in the gospels. Drawing on a wealth of historical and archaeological research, the result is a startling and vivid new portrait of Yeshua ben Yosef - Jesus of Nazareth. Challenging and thought-provoking, THE WRONG MESSIAH will change the way you view Jesus: the man who in so many ways seemed utterly wrong, but who history has proved triumphantly to be right.

Christians Against Christianity by Obery M. Hendricks, Jr. Pdf

A timely and galvanizing work that examines how right-wing evangelical Christians have veered from an admirable faith to a pernicious, destructive ideology. Today’s right-wing Evangelical Christianity stands as the very antithesis of the message of Jesus Christ. In his new book, Christians Against Christianity, best-selling author and religious scholar Obery M. Hendricks Jr. challenges right-wing evangelicals on the terrain of their own religious claims, exposing the falsehoods, contradictions, and misuses of the Bible that are embedded in their rabid homophobia, their poorly veiled racism and demonizing of immigrants and Muslims, and their ungodly alliance with big business against the interests of American workers. He scathingly indicts the religious leaders who helped facilitate the rise of the notoriously unchristian Donald Trump, likening them to the “court jesters” and hypocritical priestly sycophants of bygone eras who unquestioningly supported their sovereigns’ every act, no matter how hateful or destructive to those they were supposed to serve. In the wake of the deadly insurrectionist attack on the US Capitol, Christians Against Christianity is a clarion call to stand up to the hypocrisy of the evangelical Right, as well as a guide for Christians to return their faith to the life-affirming message that Jesus brought and died for. What Hendricks offers is a provocative diagnosis, an urgent warning that right-wing evangelicals’ aspirations for Christian nationalist supremacy are a looming threat, not only to Christian decency but to democracy itself. What they offer to America is anything but good news.

Jesus, the False Messiah by Miltonash Pdf

Study based on biblical passages and evangelical material: Bible itself and writings of its evangelical scholars give the option to this essay: it's time to be honest and face reality, leaving aside imaginary worlds. English edition (2017) of the important Theme of the messianism of Jesus. Published previously in Spanish in three editions: 2008, 2011, and 2016. This is one of those specific Themes, some readers say it's the most important of all (If Jesus was not the messiah, Christianity collapses), and the first of my books translated into English. Index Presentation Prolog Introduction Prophecies, Fulfillments, and Conclusions: 76 Themes, more variants Epilog Table of Contents 234 pages, 76 Themes/Topics, 32 Footnote... With a few extra details of the book in Spanish. In these 76 Themes you will discover the answers to these issues: Parousia; suffering Messiah; Messianic era; the Messiah son of a virgin; Hebrew patriarchs; Jesus' ancestors and Jewish kings Davidic line; the blessing of all the families of the Earth through Abraham; the Messiah, Son of God; the divinity of Jesus; divinity of the Messiah; Jesus the prophet; Jesus the Rabbi; Jesus the Priest; born in Nazareth; miracles; parables; Jesus revealed in the Old Testament; Jesus the Servant; Jesus manifested to take away our sins; the Messiah must be resurrected; voluntariness of Jesus' sacrifice; predestination; tithe; the "Old Covenant" and the "New Covenant"; Jewish mythology, Tanakh, Torah, Laws of Noah, Talmud. .. And more. I was about to not publish it: I do not speak the English language correctly, so I have made an effort and do everything possible to translate it myself, with some help. The interest of the Theme and my anxiety that it reaches more people, that is not limited to Spanish - speaking people, has been able more. Thus, it is not written in a "perfect English," but if these lines of mine are understood, the book will be understood.

False Messiah by Un-Maa Saa Pdf

Did you know that Paul, the apostle to the gentiles, had never been an apostle? Did you know that Christianity had begun over 17 years after the crucifixion and had never been the religion of the apostles? Did you know that before 80 CE, no one had had any notion of Jesus having disciples, Jesus having made profound statements, Jesus having performed miracles, or Jesus having actually been seen alive after his crucifixion? And did you know that no one knows who the gospel writers had been? That their first audience had known their gospel accounts to have been aggadic fiction? And that it had been corrupt Christian leaders of the second century who had declared the gospel accounts to have been the authentic 'word of God' (even though internal evidence has always shown that they're not)? FALSE MESSIAH discloses a small portion of the information that a well informed Christian clergy has consciously kept from the awareness of their Christian congregations. For anyone who has ever been asked "Have you accepted Jesus Christ as your personal lord and savior?", FALSE MESSIAH provides clear and irrefutable PROOF that the answer should always be an emphatic "No!" As an academic response to the dishonest promotion of religious-based ignorance, FALSE MESSIAH is a valuable addition to anyone's arsenal of truth and knowledge.
