  • Deuteronomy Introduction
    Deuteronomy Introduction written and compiled by Gary Kukis Deuteronomy Introduction The Second Law These studies are designed for believers in Jesus Christ only. If you have exercised faith in Christ, then you are in the right place. If you have not, then you need to heed the words of our Lord, Who said, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only-begotten [or, uniquely-born] Son, so that every [one] believing [or, trusting] in Him shall not perish, but shall be have eternal life! For God did not send His Son into the world so that He should judge the world, but so that the world shall be saved through Him. The one believing [or, trusting] in Him is not judged, but the one not believing has already been judged, because he has not believed in the Name of the only-begotten [or, uniquely-born] Son of God.” (John 3:16–18). “I am the Way and the Truth and the Life! No one comes to the Father except through [or, by means of] Me!” (John 14:6). Every study of the Word of God ought to be preceded by a naming of your sins to God. This restores you to fellowship with God (1John 1:8–10). If there are people around, you would name these sins silently. If there is no one around, then it does not matter if you name them silently or whether you speak aloud.

  • THE FOUNDATION of ROMAN CAPITOLIAS a Hypothesis
    ARAM, 23 (2011) 35-62. doi: 10.2143/ARAM.23.0.2959651 THE FOUNDATION OF ROMAN CAPITOLIAS A Hypothesis Mr. JULIAN M.C. BOWSHER1 (Museum of London Archaeology) INTRODUCTION The town of Beit Ras in northern Jordan is the site of the ancient city of Capitolias. The identification and geographical location of Capitolias was deter- mined in the 19th century. According to numismatic data, the city was “founded” in 97/98 AD. However, it remains an enigma since no one appears to have addressed the questions of why and when Capitolias, as a Roman city, came into being. This paper will concentrate on the Roman city of Capitolias, re-examining the known sources as well as analysing the broader geographic, economic, political, military, and religious elements. These factors will be brought together to produce a hypothesis covering the why and when. This introduction will begin with a review of early accounts of the site and the history of its identifica- tion with Capitolias, before examining its foundation. Historiography The first known (western) description of the site of Beit Ras was by Ulrich Jasper Seetzen who was there in the spring of 1806. He noted that “… from some ancient remains of architecture [it] appears to have been once a consider- able town.” but he was unable to identify it.2 J.L. Burckhardt travelled in the area in 1812 and although he did not manage to visit the site, he was told that at Beit er Ras the “ruins were of large extent, that there were no columns standing, but that large ones were lying upon the ground”.

  • False Impressions
    False Impressions Consider the following statements: • The Bible says that God helps those who help themselves. • The books of the New Testament were written centuries after the events they describe. • “Cleanliness is next to godliness” is in the Bible. • According to the Bible, the earth is flat. • The earliest New Testament manuscripts go back only to the fourth or fifth centuries AD. • The Bible teaches that the earth is the center of the universe. • The English Bible is a translation of a translation of a translation (etc.) of the original, and fresh errors were introduced in each stage of the process. How many of the above statements do you think are true? The answer is none; all of them are false. Yet these false impressions persist in the minds of many, and misinformation like this produces a skeptical attitude toward the Bible. “Scripture alone is the true lord and master of all writings and doctrine on earth. If that is not granted, what is Scripture good for? The more we reject it, the more we become satisfied with men’s books and human teachers.” -Martin Luther “Sola Scriptura Is the corner-stone of universal Protestantism; and on it Protestantism stands, or else it falls.” -B.B. Warfield “The church throughout history has faced repeated attacks on the Bible from skeptics, but only in the 19th and 20th centuries have the truthfulness and trustworthiness of God’s Word been questioned, criticized, and abandoned by those within the body of Christ.” Carl Henry in his book God, Revelation, and Authority “What is clear beyond doubt is that whereas in the nineteenth century the tendency of history was to cast doubt of the veracity of Judeo-Christian records and to undermine popular faith in God and His Son as presented in the Bible, in the twentieth century it has moved in quite the opposite direction, and there is no sign of the process coming to an end.

Over and over again, like a broken record, people ask me, “Oh, you don’t read the Bible, do you?” Sometimes they’ll say, “Why, the Bible is just another book; you ought to read…” Then they’ll mention a few of their favorite books. There are those who have a Bible in their library. They proudly tell me that it sits on the shelf next to other “greats,” such as Homer’s Odyssey or Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet or Austen’s Pride and Prejudice. Their Bible may be dusty, not broken in, but they still think of it as one of the classics. Others make degrading comments about the Bible, even snickering at the thought that anyone might take it seriously enough to spend time reading it. For these folks, having a copy of the Bible in their library is a sign of ignorance. The above questions and observations bothered me when, as a non-Christian, I tried to refute the Bible as God’s Word to humanity. I finally came to the conclusion that these were simply trite phrases from biased, prejudiced, or simply unread men and women.
