Book Description
Today the Church of the Nazarene faces issues that arise directly out of its past. For that reason, Past and Prospect argues that Nazarenes will be better equipped to face their future as a church armed by an understanding of their own history. Church historian Stan Ingersol examines issues that have characterized the Nazarene way of life during that denomination's first century, showing how the trajectory shaped by the church's founders has been altered through time by the shifting tides of Fundamentalism, mainstream Evangelicalism, global expansion, and the culture of affluence. He contends that current disagreements over polity, holiness, and worship are largely echoes and projections of tensions that have been present in the denomination since its very beginning. As the reader will discover, the common denominator running through these chapters is the prospect of rediscovering a relevant and useful past.

Book Description
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.

Book Description
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.

Book Description
Why do we worship as we do? What are the forgotten practices once central to many early Nazarene congregations? Because historical events and other factors have shaped and molded the various worship patterns found in local congregations, the way in which contemporary Nazarenes worship is no accident. Like other descendants of the American holiness movement, Nazarene worship is influenced by events predating our denominational forebears. This text explores the history behind current worship trends for a crucial reason: the very act of worship shapes and forms worshipers. Beliefs and attitudes are forged not merely by what is heard from the pulpit, but also by what is done bodily in the pew. Ellis examines the liturgical concerns and practice of John Wesley as well as those of early Nazarene pioneers in an attempt to address these issues. In so doing, the book provides a historical resource for denominational leaders, pastors, and congregations. At the same time, it aims to help congregations both to appreciate our rich ecclesial history and to critically evaluate current worship practices in order that they may truly be transformational.

Book Description
The Church of the Nazarene embraces American attachments to democratic rule, individual initiative, efficiency, and a strong sense of responsibility as "a city on a hill." It is also present in more than 150 world areas. These attributes are reflected in the astounding story of one of the founders of the denomination, H. F. Reynolds, who has been long hidden in the shadow of his early colleague, Phineas Bresee. While the church points to Bresee as its founding father, Reynolds lived and served for an additional two decades following Bresee's death, shaping the role of the General Superintendency, clarifying and expanding the church's Manual to meet the needs of the growing denomination, and establishing mission policies and practices that took it from a US church to a global presence. Reynolds maintained a lively devotion to Christ as he survived train wrecks, war, dread disease, and the sheer volume of meetings, correspondence, and explosive scandal that came with the nurturing of a new church. His vision and methods have profoundly influenced a denomination that does not know his name. This volume is designed to make the introduction.
