The Oxford English Dictionary is the ultimate authority on the usage and meaning of English words and phrases, and a fascinating guide to the evolution of our language. It traces the usage, meaning and history of words from 1150 AD to the present day. No dictionary of any language approaches the OED in thoroughness, authority, and wealth of linguistic information. The OED defines over half a million words, and includes almost 2.4 million illustrative quotations, providing an invaluable record of English throughout the centuries. The 20-volume Oxford English Dictionary is the accepted authority on the evolution of the English language over the last millennium. It is an unsurpassed guide to the meaning, history, and pronunciation of over half a million words, both present and past. The OED has a unique historical focus. Accompanying each definition is a chronologically arranged group of quotations that trace the usage of words, and show the contexts in which they can be used. The quotations are drawn from a huge variety of international sources - literary, scholarly, technical, popular - and represent authors as disparate as Geoffrey Chaucer and Erica Jong, William Shakespeare and Raymond Chandler, Charles Darwin and John Le Carré. In all, nearly 2.5 million quotations can be found in the OED . Other features distinguishing the entries in the Dictionary are authoritative definitions of over 500,000 words; detailed information on pronunciation using the International Phonetic Alphabet; listings of variant spellings used throughout each word's history; extensive treatment of etymology; and details of area of usage and of any regional characteristics (including geographical origins).
Heaven on Earth: The Order and Meaning of Mass
The Catechism of the Catholic Church encourages parents to catechize their children: · Parents’ duty to educate their children is instinctive and inalienable. · Parents have the first responsibility for educating their children. · Parents’ role in education is so important it is near impossible to offer an adequate substitute. · By marriage, parents receive the responsibility of evangelizing their children. · Parents educate their children to fulfill God's law. · As “first heralds," parents should initiate their children into the mysteries of the faith. · Education in the faith by parents should begin in the child's earliest years. · Family catechesis precedes other forms of religious instruction in the faith. But . . . catechize on what and how? As a cradle Catholic, father, grandfather, layperson, and ardent student of our Faith, I offer a suggestion based on common sense . . . and a book series. “We’re living through the greatest loss of faith in the history of the Catholic Church,” a refrain reverberating thru Catholic America. Likely, you are familiar with the statistics: · 25% percent decline in Mass attendance. · 15% of churches closed and/or consolidated. · 65% of Catholics do not believe in the Real Presence. · Catholicism, the largest Christian creed followed closely by fallen away Catholics. America’s religious decline is not new. Experts claim, “Christianity has been on decline since the removal of prayer from public schools in 1962.” Catholic school enrollment declined concurrently. Yet prayer was not removed from Catholic schools. Predictably, Mass attendance followed. What changed? Catholic authorities proffered explanations and recommendations; none of which stemmed the tide . . . a sure sign the root cause was not rightly identified. “What changed” was the equivalent of removing the pillar of prayer from public schools . . . Mass was removed from Catholic catechesis - school, CCD, RCIA, adult formation, ambo, and domestic church. A cursory look at a Baltimore Catechism, the 1950-60s field manual for Catholics, reveals a 30-page segment, “Catechism of the Mass,” immersing students in liturgical details. A cursory look at current Catholic curricula reveals a paucity of information on Mass ranging from a few paragraphs in texts for schools and homeschool to “take home” trifolds for CCD, RCIA, etc. Is Mass that important? Did you know Mass . . . Is the only sacrifice perfect, pleasing, and acceptable to God? Is the most sacred function of the Church, surpassing all others in efficacy? Is the Church’s greatest prayer? Is the Church’s #1 effort to save souls? Is the same sacrifice Christ made on the Cross? Is the perfect answer to prayer as it brings mercy and salvation Christ won for us? Is required attendance every Sunday and six Holy Days a year but Communion only once? Is the Source and Summit of our Faith? Is Heaven on Earth? Seemingly, Mass is the answer to everything integral to Catholicism. Why is it not taught in Catholic education settings? How do we reverse the tide? Catholics must re-assess school, CCD, RCIA, adult formation, school and homeschool catechesis to make space for a deep dive into Mass. To fulfill the need, I submit a book series, “Catechism Curriculum for Catholic Homeschool,” which includes a 163-page text accompanied by a workbook with fifty-one lesson reviews containing 1,600+ questions. The series is not a theological or academic treatise but a user-friendly, step-by-step guide to Mass for homeschool catechesis unlike anything available elsewhere. Author’s Promise: “Your family will never ever go to church, attend Mass, or receive Communion the same way again.”
The Interpretation of The Meaning of The Holy Quran Volume 48 - Surah Al-Qasas verse 1 to 45
I have written many books and articles on various topics but since 2013, I have devoted myself fully in writing the interpretation of the Holy Quran in English and with the grace of Allah, I have completed the whole Quran on 29th October 2020 with 84 books. I believe there is a great need in the whole world for the correct interpretation of the Holy Quran to be written in English. Currently, there is a great misunderstanding about Islam among Muslims and non-Muslims globally. The misunderstanding of the meaning of the Holy Quran among Muslims will lead to the wrong practice of Islam which leads to the wrong actions of Muslims. The wrong actions of Muslims will lead to misunderstandings about Islam among Muslims and non-Muslims. The wrong actions of the Muslims have led to many miseries and wars among Muslims. The wrong actions of Muslims have also led to many wars and clashes between Muslims and non-Muslims. In order to avoid miseries, wars and clashes from taking place between the whole mankind in the whole world, the whole mankind in the whole world need to understand the true teaching of Islam. There is no other way for the whole mankind to understand the true teaching of Islam unless the whole mankind is able to read and understand the correct interpretation of the Holy Quran. The whole mankind is only able to read and understand the correct interpretation of the Holy Quran when it is written in the universal language of the world (English). For this very reason I have written the interpretation of the Holy Quran in English. Prof. Nasoha Bin Saabin
