‘n Film oor Jesus, vertel uit Islam-perspektief
It pays to be careful...
Hierdie is so ‘n kort vakansie-uitgawe van OosKaap eNuus vir ‘n vinnige lees.
Verlede week het 50 predikante en gemeenteleiers die werkswinkel oor geloofsonderskeiding in Port Elizabeth bygewoon. Dit was ‘n lekker ontspanne, vervullende en geestelik-verrykende geleentheid. Menige leier het besield teruggegaan gemeente toe. Die kursus is deur die Begeleidingsnetwerk aangebied.
Onthou dat alle vorige uitgawes van OosKaap eNuus op die web geplaas word by www.ngkok.co.za/enuus. Hier kan jy ook alle uitgawes wat Vrydagnuus, enuusblad van die Wes- en Suid-Kaapse Sinode vind.
Vanjaar se voorstelle vir die Pinksterreeks, wat reeds vir meer as 100 jaar jaarliks aan predikante gestuur word, is op die web beskikbaar. Klik hier daarvoor. Die baie aktuele tema is Families in die kragveld van die Gees. Dr Johan Pienaar van Pretoria het die reeks geskryf.
Chris du Raan van Somerset-Oos skryf:
Die - nou amper beroemde - toespraak van Obama in aanloop tot die Demokrate se finale benoeming van hul presidensiële kandidaat is baie insiggewend. Veral ook vir ons in Suid-Afrika - EN as Christene. Miskien kan jy dit beskikbaar stel vir ons ander kollegas. Net soos jy dink. Maar dit is werklik goed.
Wel Chris, die teks wat jy aangestuur het van die werklik boeiende en leersame toespraak, is op die web - net ‘n klikkie vêr.
Hiermee 'n herinnering aan en uitnodiging na die 2008 werkswinkel vir aanbieders van die kursus in verhoudings- en diensevangelisasie: Getroue Getuies. Die doel is die opleiding van opleiers van die kursus in gemeentes. Lees die uitnodiging op die web vir volledige besonderhede.
"The Messiah" – written, produced and directed by Iranian filmmaker Nader Talebzadeh - was filmed in the Islamic Republic of Iran with Iranian actors to portray how Muslims understand the life of Jesus based on the teachings of the Qur'an and the Gospel of Barnabas – a book not included in the Christian Bible and in which the Prophet Mohammed appears.
The movie features two endings – the Muslim and Christian version of Jesus and the cross – and has won an award at Rome's Religion Today Film Festival for generating interfaith dialogue.
• When was Jesus replaced, according to the Qur'an?
"Perhaps Muslims and Christians will recognize that the Qur'an only offers sparse speculation into one of the most noted events in history while the Bible gives meticulous detail into the historic events of the day," Caner wrote to The Christian Post in an email Thursday. "It is a new day when the public is once again willing to discuss religious issues with eternal significance."
For most of "The Messiah," Jesus is depicted similarly to versions made in the West – light complexion, brown hair and performing miracles, according to Variety magazine. But where the Muslim version diverges is at the end where the disciple Judas Iscariot miraculously transforms into the likeness of Jesus and is crucified in his place.
"He (Jesus) is not the son of God and was never the son of God. He is a prophet and he was not crucified, that somebody was crucified in his stead," Talebzadeh claimed, according to CNN.
"When you show this information (Christian view of Jesus) to the common people, they don't know. Ninety percent of the Muslims in Iran don't know about this," Talebzadeh said.
Dr. Gary R. Habermas, distinguished research professor and chair of the department of Philosophy and Theology at Liberty University, said he has not seen the film but commented that Islam is "very respectful" of Jesus. He noted that the Qur'an has almost 100 verses on Jesus.
"The bad news is he is not the son of God, he didn't die on the cross and because he didn't die, he didn't rise from the dead," Habermas said to The Christian Post. "The good news is he is a great prophet, he is sinless, he is virgin born and he did miracles."
He emphasized that the Qur'an does not say that Judas took Jesus' place but only that he was not crucified. The interpretation of Judas dying in place of Jesus is only one of several popular Muslim explanations for why Jesus did not die on the cross.
But not all Christians are happy with the film. One blogger, who goes by the pen name "Dan Goldfinch" in his web log at WordPress.com, argues that not only the Bible but history also declares that Jesus was crucified.
"Jesus didn't come to earth for mere respect," wrote the Ohio-based preacher. "If Jesus has not been crucified then he has not been resurrected. If Jesus has not been resurrected from the dead, then Christians are without hope. We may as well party it up if Christ has not been Resurrected from the dead."
Goldfinch further said that what the Qur'an does not understand and explain is that man's sin must be dealt with and if it is "not dealt with in the death of Christ then we, and all of humanity from the beginning until the end, are simply obligated to be 100 percent obedient to the law."
"So if there is no death of Christ as this man is purporting in his film, then exactly how will we be saved from our sins?" the Christian blogger asked.
Director Talebzadeh meanwhile sees the film as an Islamic response to "The Passion of the Christ," the 2004 blockbuster of self- professed Catholic Mel Gibson. Although the Iranian filmmaker praised Gibson's movie, he said it was "wrong."
"The Messiah," with over 1,000 actors and extras, was one of the largest film productions in Iran, according to Variety magazine. It is the first movie to portray Jesus both from the Muslim and Christian perspective.
