Healing Mystery Revealed: What the Greek of the New Testament Says About Healing

By Dr A. Nyland

The New Testament is full of very different words about healing, but these have been largely ignored by Bible translators. The ancient Greek of the New Testament makes a distinction between different words for divine healing. One type of divine healing is instant, but the other type of divine healing is not instant but ongoing,  the symptoms may last for some time, and the person may need to change their lifestyle and work along with the healing. You will be very surprised to find out what the Greek of the New Testament actually says about healing! 

 

Book of Enoch: Angels, Watchers and Nephilim.
By Dr A. Nyland

The Book of Enoch contains accounts of the Watchers, a class of angel, who came to earth, taught humans weapons, alchemy, spell potions, sorcery, astrology, and astronomy. The Watchers also married human women and produced the Nephilim. For this, they were punished and cast into Tartarus. This is also mentioned in the New Testament.  This is an easy to read translation of The Book of Enoch with additional information on angels, Watchers, and Nephilim. 

 

The Psalms: Translation with Notes is a new English translation by Dr A. Nyland.
It retains the divine names of the Hebrew Bible, such as Yahweh, Adonai, Adon, El, Eloah, Elohim, Al, El Shaddai, and Elyon. The translation is easy to read, avoids the Biblish dialect, and does not read the New Testament back into the text. 

 

Harlots, Victims, and Rulers: The Startling Truth about Women in the early Bible.
By Patricia Erlandsen.

When we do hear about women in the Old Testament, and that is seldom, we hear how they were traitors, femme fatales, and harlots. It is not often that Deborah, mighty Judge of Israel, is preached from the pulpit, or the woman Jael, who single-handedly brought down a mighty warrior, or the ambitious Achsah, a political envoy who owned and ran a great city. Delilah, in reality a captured woman in fear of her life, is presented as the archetypal traitorous temptress.
In those early times, the line of inheritance was passed down though women, and husbands had to live with the wife’s family. The society was of mother-right and matriarchy. Yet Religion has allied itself with Patriarchy to present instead to the church-goer and world at large an entirely different picture.
Historian Patricia Erlandsen sets out the facts in this fascinating story of powerful women and powerless women from Genesis to Judges.  

 

Wealth Mystery Revealed: What the Greek of the New Testament Really Says About Prosperity!
Dr A. Nyland

Was Jesus poor or wealthy? Were the disciples wealthy? What is the truth about the so-called "Three Wise Men?" Was Jesus in fact a carpenter? Read the startling truths about what the ancient Greek of the New Testament really says about money, wealth and prosperity. Find out how to follow God's way to wealth! We depend on God's Word, but it's no secret that most of our major Bible translations today have inaccuracies to a large degree. Since we rely on God's Word, we need to know what God's Word actually says! 

 

More Than Meets The Eye: The Campaign To Control Gender Translation In Bibles
Dr A. Nyland

Politically powerful lobbyist groups such as Council on Biblical Manhood and Womanhood and Focus on the Family have controlled the release, and even the content, of certain Bibles, while producing and promoting their own Bible versions. They claim that certain Bible versions that translate gender accurately have neutralized masculine gender in an attempt to be politically correct. Yet such masculine gender did not in fact appear in the original languages of Scripture, only in the traditional English translations of the last few centuries. The lobbyists promote the view that women are by nature subordinate to men. Such groups rely upon misinformation about basic grammatical principles as well as upon mistranslation of common Greek words. More Than Meets the Eye is a must for every minister, and for every person interested in the facts about gender translation in Bibles. 

 

Prayer Mystery Revealed: What the Greek of the New Testament really says about Prayer!
Dr A. Nyland  .

We depend on God's Word, but it's no secret that most of the major Bible translations we have today have inaccuracies to a large degree. Since we rely on God's Word, we need to know what God's Word actually says!
Prayer Mystery Revealed: What the Greek of the New Testament Really says about Prayer, by Classical Greek scholar Dr A. Nyland takes a close look at the information in the New Testament about prayer. You can't afford to be without it!

A Devil of  a Job to find Satan in the Bible!

Dr A. Nyland

Does the Bible reveal that God created a devil? Will Satan and his demons torture the wicked forever in a burning hell? Christianity asserts these teachings are found in the Bible. The Bible itself, however, reveals something different! The trouble with the whole Devil question is that Christianity's view of "Satan" is more colored by the views of the Essenes and John Milton's Paradise Lost than by any reading of the Bible itself. The Essenes' view of punishment of the ungodly in the eternal fires of hell, a hell run by the chief evil spirit with his angels, is precisely that of Christianity today. However, nowhere in the Bible does it say anything of the sort.
