    Word of the Month: Syncretism

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syncretism

    Syncretism in Christianity

    Nascent Christianity appears to have incorporated many European Pagan cultural elements, "baptizing" or "Christianizing" them to conform with Christian belief and principles, at least partially, through discarding theologically or morally incompatible elements. One example of this is the strong connection between the thought of St. Augustine and Neoplatonic thought, and St. Thomas Aquinas' many citations of "The Philosopher" by Aristotle. Many scholars agree to this syncretism in principle, though any specific example is likely to be labeled "controversial". Open Theists (a subset of Protestant Evangelicals) assert that Christianity by the 3rd and 4th centuries had incorporated Greek Philosophy into its understanding of God.

    "Syncretism" was not on the table when Christianity split into eastern and western rites during the Great Schism. It was invoked however with the rifts of the Protestant Reformation, with Desiderius Erasmus's readings of Plutarch. In 1615 David Pareus of Heidelberg urged Christians to a "pious syncretism"[citation needed] in opposing the Antichrist, but few 17th century Protestants discussed the compromises that might affect a reconciliation with the Catholic Church: the Lutheran Georg Calisen "Calixtus" (1586-1656) of Helmstedt School was opposed by Johann Hülsemann, Johann Georg Dorsche and Abraham Calovius (1612-1685) for his "syncretism".[1] (See: Syncretistic Strife)

    The modern celebrations of Christmas (as celebrated in the northern European tradition, originating from Pagan Yule holidays), Easter and Halloween are examples of relatively late Christian syncretism. Earlier, the elevation of Christmas as an important holiday largely grew out of a need to replace the Saturnalia, a popular December festival of the Roman Empire. Roman Catholicism in Central and South America has also integrated a number of elements derived from indigenous and slave cultures in those areas (see the Caribbean and modern sections); while many African Initiated Churches demonstrate an integration of Christian and traditional African beliefs. In Asia the revolutionary movements of Taiping (19th-century China) and God's Army (Karen in the 1990s) have blended Christianity and traditional beliefs.

    Syncretism can be contrasted with contextualization or inculturation, the practice of making Christianity relevant to a culture.

     


    Ordered Yahveh book

    Just ordered this book, wonder what it's all about...? 

    HOLY TO YAHVEH
    Author Terrye Goldblum Seedman
    This book is a beautiful tapestry composed of Old and New Testament truths woven together to create a vivid portrait of Yahveh, the Most High God and Yahshua the Messiah. Throughout this book the plumb line of scriptural truth reveals many crooked places, faulty doctrines, and traditions that have permeated religious systems to this day. By His Spirit, Yahveh is calling Jewish and Gentile people alike to read this life changing book. For the Jewish people, the day has come to meet their Messiah; for the Gentiles it is now time to embrace the holy Hebrew roots of their faith and its scriptural mandates. For both Jews and Gentiles the hour has come for all anti-Christian and anti-Semitic walls of division to be exposed and shattered. Holy to Yahveh is a spiritual banqueting table presented before all who hunger and thirst for their Creator and His uncompromised truths. http://www.yahveh.com


    FOX FAITH Targets Christian Markets

    Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment Launches New Distribution Label, FOXFAITH; Studio Creates Consumer and Retail Brand Targeting Christian Market http://www.foxfaith.com

    CENTURY CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 20, 2006-- As the leading supplier of high quality entertainment product for the faithbased marketplace, Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment (TCFHE) unveils FOXFAITH, a new branded distribution label to house its growing portfolio of faithbased programming. Established for Christian retailers and churches/ministry organizations as a collection of inspirational films they can recommend and promote among their congregations, this new consumer and retail brand will be comprised of filmed entertainment with a clear Christian message or based on material by a Christian author. FOXFAITH will be a home entertainment distribution label as well as the marketing engine for limited theatrical releases of films specifically made for and targeted to the Christian audience as well as those seeking quality, inspirational and spiritual entertainment.

    "We're in the business of entertainment, not proselytizing," commented Jeff Yordy, Vice President, Marketing, FOXFAITH. "We simply recognized that there was a hugely underserved audience and seized the opportunity to provide them with highquality entertainment that reflects their values. And, as a result, we've seen explosive growth in this marketplace over the past few years, which only proves to us that we're successfully tapping into our core constituency."

    Continued Yordy, "We work very closely with the Christian retail community as well as a variety of Church and thought leaders across the country and they have fully embraced what we're doing with FOXFAITH and the banner has truly come to represent relevant and compelling programming that our consumers and retailers know they can trust."

    RETAIL ACTIVITIES: The studio recognized the need for a Christian label in 2002 as it realized there was an underserved market of millions of Christian households that were hungry for quality entertainment that reflected their values. Since that time, the Studio has been releasing appropriate products to the Christian Bookseller's Association (CBA) retail stores and in 2005 launched the website www.foxfaith.com as a "go to" resource for retailers, consumers, church leaders and other interested parties. To date, the studio has sold more than 30 million Faithbased DVDs, and in CBA has dedicated FOXFAITH sections in more than 1100 stores and the entire FOXFAITH business has become a $200 million retail business.

    In fact, the studio now dominates the sales charts at Christian retail outlets. Among the many titles released to CBA stores under the FOXFAITH banner are: "Be Still," "Mother Teresa," "The End Of The Spear," "The Passion Of The Christ," "The Visitation," "Love Comes Softly," "Love's Enduring Promise," "Woman Thou Art Loosed," "Billy Graham Presents" and the awardwinning documentary, "Beyond The Gates Of Splendor," plus many others. However, FOXFAITH releases are not the only titles from Fox sold in these retail outlets, many of the studio's wholesome family classics are also available including "Sound of Music," "Because of WinnDixie," "Dr. Dolittle" with Rex Harrison, "Cheaper By The Dozen," "Garfield The Movie," "My Friend Flicka" and many others.

    FORMAL, NATIONAL BRAND LAUNCH:

    GRASSROOTS OUTREACH: As part of the FOXFAITH initiative, the studio has built a network of churches/ministries that have "opted in" to receive regular information about entertainment releases that will appeal to their ministries and congregations. The program has been so successful that now more than 90,000 congregations are receiving information on upcoming FOXFAITH releases every quarter. In a direct marketing effort to further build FOXFAITH as a consumer brand, the studio has created a database of more than 14 million Christian households that regularly receive information.

    LIMITED THEATRICAL RELEASES: Beginning October 6 with "Love's Abiding Joy," a fourth filmed installment in the popular "Love Comes Softly" series based on the Janette Oke books, selected FOXFAITH films will be released to theaters, in concert with releasing company The Bigger Picture, for limited theatrical runs. Written and Directed by Michael Landon Jr., "Love's Abiding Joy" continues the inspirational and heartwarming story of a more innocent time following Missie and Willie LaHaye and they work to overcome the challenges that face them settling in the wild west.

    Plans call for a minimum of six FOXFAITH films to be theatrical releases per year, each of which will be supported by a comprehensive marketing campaign valued at nearly $5 million and targeting the core audience through television, newspaper, direct mail and other grassroots marketing, publicity and promotional activities. Covering approximately 40% of the United States, these FOXFAITH theatrical releases will be available in selected markets through Carmike Theaters, AMC and other regional theater chains.

    FOXFAITH is a distribution label of Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment LLC. FOXFAITH was created to provide compelling entertainment to the Christian audience as well as those seeking quality, inspirational and spiritual entertainment. Additional information about specific titles and programs can be found at www.foxfaith.com and www.foxfaithmovies.com.

    How to Pronounce God's Name?

    http://www.xanga.com/item.aspx?user=PronouncingTheName&tab=weblogs&uid=3...

     

    THE KEY TO PRONOUNCING GOD'S NAME

    the Tetragrammaton is composed of four
    Hebrew consonants - YHVH or YHWH ().

    Hebrew is read from right to left.

    When the vowel points are added to these four
    consonants, the word is pronounced literally as Yehovah,
    or the Anglicized form, Jehovah. This is the straightforward
    pronunciation with the vowels.



    To determine the correct pronounciation of the
    Divine Name of God, using the Hebrew Tetragram,
    "Carr used a computer to sift through all the relevant
    vowel/consonant combinations found in Hebrew scripture.
    The computer eventually narrowed the list to 'e' 'o'
    and 'a' or YeHoWaH (Jehovah in English)."
    --The Daily Breeze

    Many biblical names Started with the Tetragram,
    and give insite as to how we would pronounce
    The Great Divine Name of God.

    The following Chart shows us some of these examples
    :

    Chart provided by :
    Christian Ginsburg, Introduction To
    the Massoretico-Critical Edition
    Of The Hebrew Bible, p 369.

    Thus we see by the chart above
    that the beginning letters of the tetragram
    are pronounced in english as JEHO -

    Thus, it is clear how the ancient Jews viewed
    the correct pronunciation of the Tetragrammaton,
    for without exception the first two syllables in the
    above names are identical in pronunciation to the
    traditional pronunciation of the Tetragrammaton.

    We thus find in Hebrew : "Yehovah" and in English : "Jehovah"

    "Yehova, which was in agreement with
    the beginning of all the theophoric names,
    was the authentic pronunciation..."
    (
    Yehovah in Hebrew = Jehovah in English)
    - Paul Drach;
    De l'harmonie entre l'église et la synagogue
    (Of the Harmony between the Church and the Synagogue)
    published in 1842

    Thus, the Hebrew
    "ye-ru-sha-LA-yim"
    became "Jerusalem";
    "ye-ri-HO"
    became "Jericho";
    and "yar-DEN" become "Jordan".
    Hebrew personal names such as
    "yo-NA" became "Jonah",
    "yi-SHAI" became "Jesse"
    and "ye-SHU-a" became "Jesus".

    Likewise
    "Yehowah" became "Jehovah" in english.

    DO YOU SEE THE PATTERN ?

    "Jehovah is simply the form that conforms to normal
    English usage with respect to Hebrew names in the Bible.

    For example, in Hebrew, the name “Isaiah” was probably
    pronounced “Yeshayahu.” Similarly the English “Jerusalem”
    was, in Hebrew, pronounced “Yerushalaim.” “Jesus” was
    pronounced “Yeshua” or “Yehohshua”. The names Isaiah,
    Jerusalem and Jesus, were not the original Hebrew or
    Greek pronunciations. It is normal and proper for names
    to take on different pronunciations when they are
    transferred into another language. In Hebrew, God’s name
    was likely pronounced “Yehowah,” in Spanish it is Jehová
    (pronounced: ‘he-o-vá’), in English we say “Jehovah.”

    WHAT DO THE SCHOLARS SAY
    ABOUT THE PRONOUNCIATION
    OF GOD'S NAME ?


    "That mystic name which is called
    the Tetragrammaton...is pronounced JEHOVAH
    (Iehovah), which means, Who is, and who shall be."
    -Nicetas, Bishop of Heraclea, 2nd century,
    From The Catena On The Pentateuch,
    Published In Latin
    By Francis Zephyrus, P 146

    "The oldest archeological testimony
    favors the pronunciation Jehovah.

    A short inscription dated of the time of
    Amenophis III (circa 1400 BCE)
    has been found at Soleb..."
    -M. Gérard GERTOUX; a Hebrew scholar,
    specialist of the Tetragram;
    president of the Association Biblique
    de Recherche d'Anciens Manuscrits

    "According to postings on various forums, it has been
    stated that both Emanuel and Nehemiah Gordon believe
    that the Name of God is closer to Yehowah, which is
    similar to Jehovah in English. Nehemiah Gordon...
    defends Yehovah after extensive study of the Masoretic
    Text manuscripts. Nehemiah's view...based on studying
    the actual manuscripts under Emanuel Tov, is that...
    the earlier Masoretic manuscripts all have a Yehowah
    or Yehovah pronounciation..."
    - Seek God Association
    (Michael John Rood: Messianic Karaite Rabbi)

    "As a follower of Christ,
    Peter used Gods name, Jehovah
    .
    When Peters speech was put on record
    the Tetragrammaton (YHWH / Jehovah) was here used
    according to the practice during the first
    century B.C.E. and the first century C.E."

    YEHOVAH FAVORED OVER YAHWEH


    "non-superstitious Jewish translators always favored
    the name Jehovah in their translations of the Bible.

    On the other hand one can note that there is NO Jewish
    translation of the Bible with Yahweh."
    -M. Gérard GERTOUX; a Hebrew scholar,
    specialist of the Tetragram; president of the
    Association Biblique de Recherche d'Anciens Manuscrits

    "Concerted effort has been underway for the past
    several generations to alter the pronunciation of
    the Divine Name, known as the Tetragrammaton,
    from Jehovah into the Egyptian slur, Yahweh.
    In spite of these efforts, there is compelling evidence
    to stick with the traditional pronunciation."
    --LambLion; by Scott Jones

    "Actually, there is a problem with the
    pronunciation Yahweh
    . It is a strange
    combination of old and late elements."
    -Theological Wordbook of the Old Testament
    (TWOT)

    "The pronunciation of yhwh as Yahweh
    is a scholarly guess."
    -Anchor Bible Dictionary, VI-1011.


    "The great name YHWH is vocalized
    as "Yehowah" in Hebrew
    ...(Jehovah in English)
    In the same way, as there were theophoric names
    elaborated from the great name, that is names
    beginning with Yehô- or its shortened form Y(eh)ô-, ...
    The Hebrews took care of making either their names begin
    with Yehô- or Yô-, or to end their names with -yah,
    theophoric names like: Joshua, Jonathan, Jesus, John, etc."
    For example, the name YHWHNN (John) is vocalized
    Yehôha-nan in Hebrew."
    - M. Gérard GERTOUX; a Hebrew scholar,
    specialist of the Tetragram;
    president of the Association Biblique
    de Recherche d'Anciens Manuscrits


    "The tetragrammaton, YHWH, is therefore read
    I-eH-U-A (Iehoua), the equivalent of "YeHoWaH"
    in Masoretic punctuation. This means that the name
    is to be pronounced as it is written, or according
    to its letters."
    - (Won W. Lee professor at the Calvin College)
    published in the Religious Studies Review
    Volume 29 Number 3 July 2003 page 285.

    "There is some evidence that the Tetragrammaton,
    the Divine Name, (Jehovah), Appeared in some
    or all of the OT (Old Testament) quotations in the
    NT (New Testament) when the NT documents
    were first penned."
    - The ANCHOR BIBLE DICTIONARY
    Volume 6 Si-Z Pages 392-393


    "Numerous linguists have postulated that...this name
    was pronounced Yehowah in the first century..."
    -M. Gérard GERTOUX; a Hebrew scholar,
    specialist of the Tetragram; president of the
    Association Biblique de Recherche d'Anciens Manuscrits


    "We have objective manuscript evidence
    to support placement of the sacred name
    (Jehovah) into the NT (New Testament) text,
    the era of guesswork is over."

    - A Collection of Evidence Supporting
    Original Hebrew-Aramaic New Testament
    by James Trimm - Chapter 4

    "The Jewish scholars known as Massoretes
    introduced a system of vowels and accents...
    In this way the Tetragrammaton became Ye-Ho-VaH
    and later on, in Western languages, Jehovah..."
    - B.9.2: The Biblical Background;
    Gilles C H Nullens

    "Yehovah - pronounced {yeh-ho-vaw'} -
    is the correct Hebrew rendering. "
    -Strong's Exhaustive Concordance of the Bible


    Religious authorities favor the name Ye.ho.va.
    Additionally non-superstitious Jewish translators always
    favored the name Jehovah
    in their translations of the Bible.
    On the other hand - there is NO Jewish translation of the
    Bible with the name Yahweh.

    See the chart below for examples :

    NAME OF VERSION

    Concerning the tetragrammaton in favor
    of the Hebrew name "Yehowah" (English-Jehovah)

    - George W. Buchanan,
    "How God's Name Was Pronounced,"
    BAR 21.2 (March-April 1995), 31-32

    "Many scholars believe...that it is more likely that

    Poetry Confirms 3 Syllables

    "The correct pronunciation of the Tetragrammaton
    is either Yahohwah or Yahuwah. This can be shown

    or Eli-Yahu. "

    sound as Yah-oo-ay (three syllables)."
    -(Journal of Biblical Literature, 25, p.50
    and Jewish Encyclopedia, vol.9, p.161).

    "the pronunciation of YHWH
    is an academic matter and the God of Israel
    is more interested in our personal relationship
    to Him rather than the pronunciation of his name. "

    "God's Name...the spelling and the pronunciation are
    not highly important. What is highly important is to

    Jason Fried 37Signals on Design


    ...it's not just about design or engineering or business. To me, at least, those things don't matter so much on their own. I think what's important is how you can make them all work together.

    You can be a great designer, but if you don't have any idea how to build something, or market something, then it doesn't matter. And vice versa. So, a lot of different people show up from big companies and small companies. At our workshop in Seattle, people from Microsoft and Amazon showed up, but we also had owners of small companies with just one or two people who want to build a product. They wanted to gain some insight from how we did it.

    Our whole thing is about making big things happen with small teams. You don't need all these layers of red tape and bureaucracy and formal process to get things done. In fact, being smaller has its advantages, and we talk a lot about that. In some ways it's an inspirational talk, and in other ways it's a very practical, real talk about how we did it and how you can apply some of these principles to your own process.


    Entrepreneurs, angels, and the cost of launch

    37Signals

    Joe Kraus from JotSpot has a great piece on how the last ten years has reduced the price of doing a startup from three million to a hundred thousand dollars for him. That’s definitely an interesting development and Joe is highlighting the right trends. But since Joe is coming from a company launched on angels and running on VC ($5,2 million, no less), his side is only one side of the story.

    As part of a debt-free company that didn’t need angels to launch and is operating on revenues instead of VC, I naturally have a somewhat different perspective. I think the most interesting change in this economy is what can be done with little or no explicit investment at all. The products that emerge from the constraints of prior commitments. Like being a student, working for clients, or being just a regular old employee.


    BeliefNet passes the plate and gets $7Million VC

    Beliefnet gathers $7M round
    by Lesley Pink Posted 29, Jun 2005

    Beliefnet Inc. didn't look to the heavens for its latest round of funding, but rising spirituality across the country did help the multifaith online media company land $7 million in new venture capital in a funding led by the Boston office of Softbank Capital.

    The funding comes almost three years after the New York-based company exited Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection with the help of angel investors. Blue Chip Venture Co. of Cincinnati led two venture rounds totaling $1 million in 2002 and also participated in the Softbank-led round.
