    About this ebook

    The Christians, the Muslims, and the Jews have very different views on the nature of Jesus, What is the truth? By considering one of the most significantly revealing events – the Temptations of Jesus in the desert – the author uses reason and logic to analyze the situation. The Three Temptations are carefully discussed in detail before the (missing) fourth Temptation is presented. The main aim is to show how difficult it is to evaluate any event based solely on the written word. Finally, the author suggests possible solutions to current religious conflicts. Very rarely do religion and reason combine, but they do so here and lead to a natural conclusion.

    I have an honours degree in Mathematics from the Open University and taught in Scotland before gaining an M.A. in English Literature. I taught English to O Level International GCSE Cambridge students for 14 years in Pakistan and was Head of Department there. My Haiku on Cultural Diversity is published in UNESCO’S Cultural Report 2000. My story of Big Samson The Big Lion (in a much shorter form) was accepted for publication by Oxford University Press, but never published for technical reasons. Currently, I have published about 12 e-books on the teaching of English, novels, short stories and poetry. My Spelling book was ranked number 1 in its category on Amazon. My interests include chess, badminton, bridge and astronomy. (Pervaiz Salik)

      What Does The Bible Say About Fate / Destiny?

      Jan 1, 2021

      This is a very complex issue, and we will start with what the Bible does not teach. Fate is usually thought of as a predetermined course of events beyond human control. A typical response to a belief in fate is resignation—if we can’t change destiny,

      The Three Temptations of Jesus (PH) in the desert before he starts his ministry is a pivotal moment mentioned by Luke, Mark and Matthew in the Holy Bible but did it actually happen? If so, who witnessed these events?

      The Bible clearly states that Jesus (PH) went alone into the desert; no one else was present, so the testimony of the apostles could only have come from the mouth
