The Virgin Mary In the Light of the Word of God

The Virgin Mary in Light of the Word of God is an elegant and comprehensive book on what the Bible has to say about Jesus’ mother Mary. Originally published in Arabic, and then Spanish, it has already received distribution in Africa, South America, and the Middle East. Even now, Dr. Nasser Farag is distributing an advance copy of the English translation to several leaders on the mission field in Africa. Nordskog Publishing is pleased to present the finished English language edition.

In The Virgin Mary, Dr. Labib Mikhail makes an important contribution to Christian literature as he systematically identifies the Scriptures concerning blessed Mary, the mother of Jesus, and draws Biblically sound conclusions. As you will read in the biographies, author Dr. Labib Mikhail, and his literary partner in this work, Dr. Farag, each have an amazing lifetime of accomplishment in God’s Word, in living for Christ, and in educational, missionary and evangelism work over many fields of service around the world. Their depth of accomplishment and Biblical wisdom reveal themselves in the elegant style and pointed message of The Virgin Mary.

Dr. Labib, over the traditions of men, fervently teaches the Holy Bible as the very Word of God. In this, he provides a tremendous ministry to those who rely on tradition at the expense of Biblical truth. The tradition-imposed diminishment of power for godly living a1nd the resulting lack of blessings can be effectively countered by this clear enlightenment from God’s Word.

As the book reveals, the veneration of blessed Mary by the churches has led to the wrongful conclusion by Muslims that Mary is a person of the Holy Trinity. While this notion is clearly untrue, Mary’s veneration in the traditional churches nonetheless adds weight to the erroneous conclusion that Christianity is a false religion which denies the oneness of God. Moreover, in the traditional churches themselves, dependency on Mary as an intermediary at the expense of a personal relationship with Christ has demoralized many Christians who by that choice deny themselves the power of the Word of God and the true Gospel.

For those not well acquainted with but interested in Christianity and its true historic beliefs, you will find a straightforward declaration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ that leads to salvation and the abundant life that our God always intended for mankind, through the saving and sanctifying work of Jesus Christ.

For the committed Christian, you will find an edifying presentation of the true Gospel and of sound doctrine.

The Virgin Mary in Light of the Word of God is an eminently worthwhile book for every reader. It is not burdensome. No esoteric theological language here, this book is accessible to anyone who seeks to know the truth regarding the great figure of blessed Mary, the sound reasons to honor her and emulate her faith and character, and the glorious Good News of Jesus Christ from Mary’s point of view.

This book is full of truth. It glorifies God and His Son, our Savior, Jesus Christ. Please read, enjoy, and let this book minister to your heart
for the glory of God and the furthering of His kingdom.
