Dr. H. M. Baagil's Muslim Christian Dialogue is a proselytic tract that sets forth Islam's primary charges against Christianity: the corruption of Scriptures revealed to earlier prophets and the adoption of false and idolatrous doctrine. Dr. Baagil's treatise has been used by countless Islamic organizations to urge Christians to return to the pure, authentic, uncorrupted religion of Islam. Yet Dr. Baagil's tract employs insidious and subtle twists of logic to support its conclusions. The book is especially dangerous to the Christian or Muslim unschooled in Christian doctrine or having shallow biblical knowledge. Such a reader will fall prey to Dr. Baagil's traps, thus being led astray from the truth of the Gospel to an impotent form of religion that denies Jesus' salvific power. At last-there is now an answer to Dr. Baagil's treatise. In this volume, A. Yousef Al-Katib sets forth a systemic reply to each of Dr. Baagil's attacks on Christianity. A. Yousef Al-Katib, himself a Christian convert who spent more than five years in religious study before experiencing the miraculous power of Jesus to heal and to save, thoroughly replies to, refutes and rebuts each of Dr. Baagil's arguments on a detailed point-by-point basis. He reveals Dr. Baagil's innumerable contradictions, false statements, circular arguments, illogicisms and erroneous biblical interpretations. The present volume is indispensable to the Christian studying Islam and to the Muslim studying the Jesus of the Bible. In these pages, it vindicates Christianity from the charges that have been waged against it and guides the reader to the light of Jesus Christ-Savior, Messiah and Son of God.
What did Jesus mean when he said to "love your enemies" and "pray for those who persecute you"? Do these commandments leave room for Christians to serve in militaries or police forces that implement the use of force? Or is the Christian to steadfastly reject violence and embrace pacifism? Are certain wars justified on the basis of just war theory, or are all wars, in their brutality and destruction, inherently evil? In this study, Harold Palmer, an attorney, examines the case that has traditionally been made to justify Christian participation in war. The author begins with a historical background of the roots of just war theory as promulgated by Thomas Aquinas. He then examines the passages on which just war theorists rely, including God's commandments to the Israelites to go to war against their enemies, Jesus' praise of the Roman Army centurion for his faith and God's use of the centurion Cornelius to graft Gentiles into the Kingdom of God. Arguing that these passages have been misunderstood, he concludes that Christianity only permits a single response to evil-self-sacrificial love. The author makes a cogent case for Christian pacifism by examining the life of Jesus and arguing that His crucifixion was more than a salvific act; it also exemplified the ideal of Christian living. Being a disciple of Jesus means emulating Him in every way, including responding to violence through self-sacrificial love, as Jesus did, and obeying Jesus' commands to be as "harmless as doves," to "turn the other cheek" and "pray for those who persecute you." Finally, this study tackles the difficult question of Old Testament violence by arguing that it falls within a specific context and is not normative for members of the New Covenant of Grace. Rather than embrace violence, we are to follow the examples set by the early church and its martyrs, including the Apostle Stephen, who prayed that his persecutors not be charged with their sins, and the apostle Paul, who taught us to "live peaceably with all men." Our war is not a physical struggle, but a spiritual war to be waged with prayer, faith and the gospel of peace (Eph 6:12-18). About the Author: Harold Palmer is an attorney who served nearly two decades at the United Nations, before retiring to rural New York to dedicate himself to the study of philosophy and theology.
What is the historical framework of the Palestinian refugee crisis and what durable solutions are available? Which human rights instruments are applicable to Palestinian refugees? What is the place of the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees within the global refugee framework and what challenges does the Agency face? This book approaches the question of Palestinian refugees from a legal, historical and political perspective to address these and other relevant questions. Seeking to impart an understanding of the place of Palestinian refugees under international law, it explores the rights of Palestinian refugees, including the collective rights of self-determination and state sovereignty and the individual right of return. It discusses the specialized, separate regime established for Palestinian refugees and the relationship of this regime vis-à-vis the UN Refugee Agency and the Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees.
