Judaism and Christianity unMasked

This is a four volume set of a solid foundation for further studies in Christianity.  The most popular of the Bernard items.  The study is clean and clear enough for you to teach your friends about the beginnings of Judaism and Christianity. You may purchase the four volumes for only $30.00 or get them separately as they are listed below.  The Source or Roots of the Jews / The Sign of the Return or Coming / The Semite or Rabbi after 70 AD / The Silence of Christianity After 70 AD.  These books give the Biblical facts and dates of the origin and end of things.  These four volumes will give you all the information for you to decide on the issues.  

"The Source"  The origin of the Jews.  The first Temple did not know the Jew.  It was not until the Prophet Ezekiel created the Jew, which created a design for the Second Temple.  Abraham was not a Jew.  David was not a Jew.  So, who are these Second Temple Jews?  This volume gives the Biblical facts and dates of the plans and beginning of the Second Temple Jew.  It was within an exiled nation after the destruction of the first temple in BC 586.  Ezekiel mastered their problem and became the Father of Judaism.

"The Sign"  The lone sign of the Coming of Christ.  Since no one knew when the coming of Christ would be, the Disciples asked Jesus what the physical sign would be.  This volume researches the account of Luke, the 21st chapter about the Parousia.  Josephus, the Roman historian gives an eye witness of the events of the Parousia.

"The Semite or Judean"  The modern Rabbinic Jew.  Are they a nation, race or religion?  Can they survive with their identity intact?  If they try to blend in, will they be accepted?  Where can they live in peace and security?  Must they have their own country?  Should there be a Jewish State in Israel?  This book tells it all.

"The Silence of Christian history On Trial" Three possibilities of what caused the awesome silence of Christian activity and ministries at the close of the 1st century.  We look in the early manuscripts at the great apostasy from the faith and the martyrdom of so many Christians.  That leaves only one other option.  All three options are considered in this book.  Read it and decide.

"The Lost Letter to the Laodiceans"  $9.95    Sale @ $7.00 Paul told the Colossians to read the letter coming from Laodicea and let them read your letter.  This letter has been highly esteemed by several learned men of the Church of Rome and others, including the Quakers that have a translation and strongly appeal to others for its canonistic acceptance.  The idea that Paul wrote one epistle (Hebrews) to the Jews and fourteen epistles to the Gentiles give rise to this Laodicean letter.  As one reads the epistle, a calm assurance comes to the mind that one is reading one of Paul's letters.  It has all the marks of a Pauline letter.

"Assyria, Princes, Priests and People by A.H.Sayce        $29.95    Sale @ $20.00  At the head of the divine hierarchy still stood the old triad of Anu, Mul-ge, and Ea. Mul-ge's name, however, was changed to Bel, but since Merodach was also known as Bel, he fell more and more into the background, especially after the rise of Babylon, of which city Merodach was the patron deity. At Nipur, now Niffer, alone, he continued to be worshipped down into late times. His consort was Bilat, or Beltis, 'the great lady,' who eventually came to be regarded as the wife of Merodach rather than of 'the other Bel.' Like Anu and Ea, Bel was the offspring of Sar and Kisar, the upper and lower firmaments.  Anu was the visible sky, but he also represented the invisible heaven, which was supposed to extend above the visible one, and to be the abode of the gods. The chief seat of his worship was Erech, where he was regarded as the oldest of the gods, and the original creator of the universe. But elsewhere, also, he was. looked upon as the creator of the visible world, and the father of the gods. By his side, in the Semitic period, stood the goddess Anat, whose attributes were derived from his. The worship of Anat spread from Babylonia to the Canaanites, as is shown by the geographical names Beth Anath, 'the temple of Anat' (Josh. xix. 38 ; xv. 59), and Anathoth, the city of 'the goddesses Anat.' It was even introduced into Egypt after the Asiatic wars of the eighteenth dynasty. In the prae-Semitic days of Chaldea, a monotheistic school had flourished, which resolved the various deities of the Accadian belief into manifestations of the one supreme god, Anu; and old hymns exist in which reference is made to 'the one [59] god. 'But this school never seems to have numbered many adherents, and it eventually died out. Its existence, however, reminds us of the fact that Abraham was born in 'Ur of the Chaldees.'  If you want to know the beginning of the gods, this is your book.  (It is old but in good shape.)

" Figures of Speech in the Bible" By Bullinger        $39.95    Sale @ $29.00 A figure is simply a word or a sentence thrown into a peculiar form, different from its original or simplest meaning or use. These form are constantly used by every speaker and writer. It is impossible to hold the simplest conversation or to write a few sentences without, it may be unconsciously, making use of figures. We may say, "the ground needs rain": that is a plain, cold matter-of-fact statement; but if we say "the ground is thirsty" we immediately use a figure. Some figures are common to Hebrew and Greek and not to English. There are figures used in the English language, which have nothing that answers to them in Hebrew or Greek. How are we to know? We take most of the scripture as literal. However, much of it is in figures. This 1100 pages book takes each case and lays it out for the reader to understand.

"Crucified With Christ" DVD  of six "fireside" talks on victorious Christian living.  $19.95    Sale @ $15.00 A Christless cross... no refuge there for me;  A crossless Christ my Savior could never be: But, O CHRIST CRUCIFIED, I rest myself in Thee.  The victorious Christian life depends very little on how one feels.  For the victory is built upon the knowledge that one has.  I realize a new life as I see my old life on the cross.  As I yield all to the power of His death, I shall be "in the likeness of His resurrection."  The knowledge that we need for the victorious life is to know our union with Him in His death, entombment and resurrection.  If I know that I have died with Him, I will know that I was raised with Him to live in newness of life.  This is the victorious life.  JWB

"The Last Days" Video     

$19.95    Sale @ $10.00

Popular prophecy "experts," like Hal Lindsey, Tim LaHaye, Jack Van Impe and Grant Jeffrey assure us that we are in the last days.  But, the 1st century writers of the New Testament claim that both Jesus' earthly ministry and the time of the end had arrived.  In this video you will discover: when and how the biblical "Last Days" actually occurred; why modern-day end-time pundits are dead wrong; the true identity of the "world" that was passing away; why our world is never going to end; the basis for the next reformation of Christianity.  (Only two left)
