A study of the roots and growth of the Church of the Nazarene.
Historians agree that Nazarenes or Al-Nassarah in Arabic, similar to Judaism, was a source for knowledge and religious thoughts for the Arabs of Hijaz. The Arab of Hijaz and specially Arab of Mecca had a tremendous knowledge in the Nazarene doctrines and sect and their opinion of Christs Birth, His message and His crucifixion. It was natural that such talks created a feedback in their knowledge, minds and dogma. The only religion known to the Quran is the religion of Moses (Moussa) and Jesus (Isa), as one religion that was carried by the Nazarenes. It is very important to remember that in history before Islam the term Nusrani and Nassarah, the Nazarenes never used to represent the Christians and Christianity wherever they lived throughout their history. The Nazarenes is the name confined to a sect of Beni Israel who believed in the coming of Christ, and deflected from the main streams of Christianity since the first Council of the Churches that took place in Jerusalem in 49 AD. Christians refer to them as the Shiites in relation to their Sunni Christianity, in faith and in dogma. With their presence in Mecca and Hijaz, the name Nazarene prevailed, as they had monopolized the Gospel. The best proof is the Raheb Gregarious Buheira of Basra Ash-sham who was labeled, in Al-Sira Al-Nabawiah, the caretaker of Isa on His religion, and to whom Waraka Bin Nofal belonged. Waraka Ben Nofal, the Bishop of Nazarenes in Mecca, was translating the Book and the Gospel of Mathews Hebrew in Aramaic to Arabic in the presence of Muhammad. Dr. Effarahs intention is to discuss in short that such important fact that deserves in depth study and research, especially the Quran never used the term Christianity and Christians. The only reference was to Jesus, as Isa Bin Mariam, and to the Nazarenes all the time. Therefore any translation from Arabic into English for the Holy Quran is misleading if Isa is considered a presentation for Jesus Christ, or any reference to the Nazarenes as Christians. The Holy Quran can be looked at as a continuous dialogue with the people of the Book from Jews and Nazarenes. The positions of testimony by the Nazarenes and their support to the Quranic call, and their affiliations to that mission, does not mean in the Quran, except the Nazarenes of Beni Israel due to the Qurans position, similar to their position, from the trinity and the divinity of Christ. The Arab Prophet direction is to follow the believers state of affairs Those are the ones to whom We have given the Book, along with Discretion and Prophet hood Such are the ones whom God has guided, so copy their guidance, as stated in Sura Al-Enaam, 6: verses 89-90. This book, What are the sacred roots of Islam, verifies how monotheism was spread in Arabia through the teaching of the Book and the Gospel through the Nazarenes Arab tribes who accepted the Prophet Mohammad as their leader and helped in setting the foundation for the Arab tribes in the Arabian Peninsula to unite and to spread out into an Islamic Empire. The current assumed Islamic State of Iraq and Levant (ISIL) does not represent the true concept of the sacred roots of Islam that created the Islamic Empire in the past. Today, ISIL is nothing more than a group of terrorists hiding behind a form of Islam of their own brutal imagination. This book is written to those intellectuals who believe in the renewal, innovation and knowledge production that makes that make the contemporary Arab mentality open to global, psychological, social and human interactions and that Democracy is the solution and not Islam that ISIL is calling for by slaughtering humanity and its antiquities.
Take a look under 'Churches' in the yellow pages of any large-city telephone directory. What you'll get is an idea of the extreme diversity of religious groups in today's society . Add this proliferation to the widespread notion that 'all religions are simply different roads leading to the same place, ' and you may wonder how many religions justify their existence.In this well-documented examination of various religious beliefs, authors Wes Tracy and Stan Ingersol help Nazarenes gain a greater appreciation for their own faith heritage through a clearer understanding of where they fit on today's often frenzied religious landscape.
A mix of thematic essays, reference entries, and primary source documents covering the role of religion in American history and life from the colonial era to the present. Often controversial, religion has been an important force in shaping American culture. Religious convictions strongly influenced colonial and state governments as well as the United States as a new republic. Religious teachings, values, and practices deeply affected political structures and policies, economic ideology and practice, educational institutions and instruction, social norms and customs, marriage, and family life. By analyzing religion's interaction with American culture and prominent religious leaders and ideologies, this reference helps readers to better understand many fascinating, often controversial, religious leaders, ideas, events, and topics. The work is organized in three volumes devoted to particular periods. Volume one includes a chronology highlighting key events related to religion in American history and an introduction that overviews religion in America during the period covered by the volume, and roughly 10 essays that explore significant themes. These essays are followed by approximately 120 alphabetically arranged reference entries providing objective, fundamental information about topics related to religion in America. Each volume presents nearly 50 primary source documents, each introduced by a contextualizing headnote. A selected, general bibliography closes volume three.
Welcome to my book, The Nazarene. May Yahuah give us all eyes to see the Truth, the ears to hear what the stars proclaim day after day, night after night, and the mind to overcome 2,000 years of the Lying Pen of the Scribes. Today we are faced with the traditions/doctrines passed down generation after generation that are “nothing but lies, false gods, and things of no profit”. In this book, I am going to overcome these lies. I am going to show the proper meaning and intent of Scripture by correcting the mistranslations and demonstrate the meaning in context. I will portray The Nazarene in proper context of The Heavenly Scroll, within the proper relationship to his Father, and lay out his life as a human being. I will show that Yahusha came to show us The Way whereby we all can achieve the Fullness of Deity in our bodies, Fulfill The Law, and defeat death. That “Way” is Mikveh, Circumcision, and Offering on Passover. While these Hebrew Roots teachers claim to have ‘come out of Babylon’ they remain knee deep in it. These “teachers” are self-appointed and remain Hellenized… They all have denied The Creator’s Witness of Yahusha written in the stars at creation called The Heavenly Scroll. Instead of teaching the Truth, that Yahusha was given Glory with Yahuah at Creation, written in The Heavenly Scroll, where The Branch is foretold as a “Lamb that would be slaughtered”; they teach us that Yahusha pre-existed and was co-creator. These men who claim to understand the Scriptures, have denied the very source of inspiration of all the Prophets, as they all to a man, were Witnessing the coming of the Branch, Orion, in The Heavenly Scroll. We have twisted the Scriptures to serve our own blasphemous purposes to tickle the ears of the people who want a demi-god in the image of all pagan religions. Much like when the Israelites rejected Yahuah as their King and demanded a human King like all the pagan nations. We have adopted “the way of the pagans” in the most fundamental pagan doctrine of all! Incarnation. Yahusha the Nazarene was rejected 2,000 years ago, betrayed by everyone he knew, beaten to the edge of death, and then nailed to a tree. He has suffered no less over the past 2,000 years, as we have falsely accused Yahusha the Nazarene of being “God in the flesh” and used his image to idolize a ‘man who died’ as God in our hearts! In Yahusha’s name we are taught to blaspheme our Creator, deny the Set Apart Ruach, and commit the unpardonable sin! We have created in our own minds, an image of a demi-god we say was ‘Yahuah in the flesh’ making Yahuah out to be a liar, forcing the Creator to be conformed to our own human image (instead being conformed to His Divine Image), and we deny The Creator’s (Yahuah’s) immortality teaching that He came to Earth as a man and died (that is a pagan myth originating in Babylon). Scripture openly declares that Yahusha is NOT ‘Yahuah, who came in the flesh’. I will explain exactly what “according to the flesh” means in this book and prove Yahuah would not, could not, ever “come in the flesh”. Instead of Yahusha, we are taught “Yahuah came in the flesh” which is The Spirit of the False Messiah. We have twisted the Scriptures to serve our own blasphemous purposes to tickle the ears of the people who want a demi-god in the image of all pagan religions. Much like when the Israelites rejected Yahuah as their King and demanded a human King like all the pagan nations. We have adopted “the way of the pagans” in the most fundamental pagan doctrine of all! Incarnation. Our translators cater to the whims of the people and continue to force feed humanity false translations knowingly! Scholars have proven these translations to be in error, proven the Name of Yahuah was removed, proven the name of the Messiah has been replaced by the name of the False Messiah. Textual Critics The Nazarene 3 have known for hundreds of years that the Greeks twisted the Scriptures and where they are in error. Scholars now openly admit that the Apostle Sha’ul’s writings were twisted even further by the “Reformers” into what we call The Pauline Doctrine. The Pauline Doctrine is a mistranslated, Greek appropriate, sound bite driven implied LIE! It is 100% contrary to what Sha’ul taught as a “Leader of the Nazarenes”. Yet today, these self-appointed teachers do not have the anointing to correct Sha’ul’s work even going so far as to commit false witness against Sha’ul, blaming him for what the ‘Greeks’ have done, as if Sha’ul is the author of The Pauline Doctrine. In doing so, they have taken one of the most inspired, anointed, and qualified teachers of the Nazarenes from us! I will show us what it means to be Nazarene, what they believed and what Yahchanan, Yahusha, Yaakov and Sha’ul taught that continued to be believed for 500 years before the Nazarenes were driven underground by Christians and Hellenized Jews. I will prove that not one of them accepted The Virgin Birth, they rejected Incarnation, they taught Yahusha was Adopted upon his Mikveh (just like we are), they kept the ‘intent’ of The Law, not the letter, they followed the ancient Enochian Path; and they knew that Yahusha Fulfilled The Law through Mikveh (he was NOT a “Living Torah”). Yahusha was the Fulfillment of the Debar (Predestined ‘Plan’ written in The Heavenly Scroll) not the Logos (Word made flesh). These issues are at the very foundation of The Yahushaic Covenant. The teachers in the Hebrew Roots movement show a total disconnect from who The Nazarenes were, what they taught, and what the Nazarene’s believed! Overall these teachers today in the Hebrew Roots and Messianic Movements show very little Spiritual anointing to even teach. Yet, they “appear” as worthy teachers to the masses, unless you truly understand what they teach.
Ethiopia accepted Christianity as her sovereign faith after being a Judaic nation for centuries before Christ. Her political seat being the Throne of David makes this event uniquely significant in that Judaism as a religion or as a nation had no existing empire. By this, we mean that after the destruction of Jerusalem in 588 BC and the dispersion of the Israelites, the Jews, as a nation, were unable to reconstruct an independent state anywhere in the world except for the empire established in Ethiopia. Therefore, Ethiopia represented the only nation to have made such a transition from Judaism to Christianity. When one makes a thorough study of the traditions of the biblical Jewish nation, one will understand that a Jewish nation could not be reestablished without the Throne and seed of King David. Therefore, Israel as a place remains to be the fragmented ruins of a past flourishing Jewish state. The Roman invasion and occupation of Jerusalem created an atmosphere of tension and political unrest that continued and subsequently led to the destruction of this once glorious city, which used to house the Ark of the Covenant. All this occurred before the birth of Christ, who was to be the major element in the events that were to lead to a New Way.
