Why would the early church have a painting of two men playing with sputnik?
Before I begin, you should know that
religion is a personal thing. What I believe may not be what you believe. That is why we have so many religions in this
world. We also have people who don’t believe in anything as well as people who
attack people who do believe in something. I am going to tell you what I
believe in and most of you will not agree with it. My beliefs are based on my
62 years of life, my years of studying bible and church doctrine, the study of
scriptures that did not make it into the bible, as well as science.
I have been known to tell a joke about
the two people who argue about who is correct about how to worship God. One man
takes communion by drinking the wine first and eating the bread last. The other
man eats the bread first and drinks the wine last. That is why the second man
calls the first man a heretic!
In the Beginning
God created the heavens and the Earth.
Last he created man then woman. Adam was born from the Earth or dirt. Most
people can trace their origins back to what their mother’s and father’s ate
that can be traced back to the Earth or dirt. When we die, our bodies go back
to dirt or Earth.
God told Adam not to eat from the tree
of knowledge. He never told Eve. Adam told Eve not to eat from the tree of
knowledge. But Eve somehow talked Adam into eating from the tree. So Adam
sinned not Eve. This is why sin is carried from generation to generation
through the male not the female.
Another phrase for Jesus is the “last
Adam.” Why? Because Jesus is the last person that will try to correct the
mistake created by Adam. This sin caused the corruption of the human Earth suit
making it degrade over time (now about 50 to 90 years) and die. It caused humans to create a multitude of
sins such as killing, stealing, making fails statements against others, and
righteousness.
So Jesus came here to teach humans how
to live with one another, how to prepare for life after their Earth suit wares
out, and to go rescue the dead from the forces of evil.
Now here comes the part where you are
going to start calling me a heretic!
The Birth of Jesus
Jesus had to be born without sin. That
means he had to be born innocent of sin. Who carried sin? Man carries sin! That
meant that a female had to deliver a baby without a man being part of the
transaction. This is why Mary had a
virgin birth. Jesus was born without the aid of sperm from a man. So who was
the donor? It had to be someone who was not from this Earth. It had to be
someone who is not a spirit because spirits do not carry sperm. This is why it
had to be a human who is not from this Earth.
This means that Jesus of Nazareth was
half human and half alien. Most of you
don’t think that is true because of your movie image of what an alien looks
like and how they act. I can relate to that because when I (a Black man) meet
and start talking to a bunch of White people who had no contact with Blacks,
they get scared and try to get me away from them. Their idea of a Black man is
what is seen in the media and movies. They are either a joke or a brute. If you notice, Jesus had to stay one step in
front of the authorities, the religious nuts, and the forces of evil. Why
because he did not think like a Jew or like anyone else.
When Jesus was a child, the wise men came to see
him. They followed a star to the place where Jesus was living. Keep in mind;
they did not have cars and trains at that time. It took two years for the wise
men to get from some place in the east to Nazareth. Both Matthew's Gospel and
Luke's Gospel say that Jesus was born during the reign of King Herod the Great.
Herod was an Idumean and was imposed on Judea by Roman military might. That was
one reason why he was very unpopular among the Jews. Keep in mind, Israel and Judea
was under Roman occupation at the time of Jesus.
The wise men went to King Herod first
to ask where this child was living. The king thought of this child as a threat
to his kingdom and wanted the wise men to tell him where he could find him. His
motive was murder. But when the wise men left Jesus someone or something told
them not to go back to King Herod. At the same time, someone told Joseph to
take his family and leave the country to Egypt.
Now let’s stop here for a minute. The
wise men came from the east. They followed a star to Nazareth. Problem, have you ever followed a star
before? Stars are not above a city or town. The only star that you can get
under is the North Star at the North Pole. As the Earth rotates the stars move
in the sky. This star stayed over a point over Nazareth. Why? Because it is not a star, it is an alien
ship standing guard over Jesus. It is the people in this ship that told the
wise men not to go back to Herod. It is these people who told Joseph to get out
of town. After Jesus left, the king killed every child 2 years old and under.
Why, because the king asked the wise men when did they start seeing this star
in the sky? The answer, 2 years ago.
After King Herod killed all the children, Herod had a bad accident,
falling off his chair and died.
Why would the early church have a painting about the crucifixion of Jesus with one space ship chasing another space ship across the sky?
Moving Forward
The Bible (the 4 gospels; Matthew,
Mark, Luke, and John) gives account of Jesus until he turns 12 years old. It
gives account of Jesus going into the desert and being tempted by the Devil.
But from a young age to about 30 years old, the scriptures nor the Roman
records do not account for Jesus where about or activities.
We can assume that
Jesus worked as a carpenter because his father Joseph was a carpenter and ran a
carpentry business. I suspect that is where the money came from to start his
ministry. He probably worked alongside his brothers James, Joseph (Joses), Judas and Simon . They lived with their parents Joseph and Mary until
they came of age to leave the home. The Bible said that he had sisters but does
not name them. Jesus brothers gained high places in the local government.
At 30 year old, he rounded up the people to work in his
ministry for three to four years, working miracles as he went along. Keep in
mind that at this time, his ministry was a radical concept and did not always
follow Jewish doctrine or Roman religious doctrine. This is why he had to stay
on the move all the time. The people in power did not believe in freedom of
religion or expression in the first century A.D. When Jesus was ready to go to heaven, he went
to the capital Jerusalem and turned out the powers to be. This got him
crucified in a way that no other person was recorded being crucified before or
after his death. Jesus said before he died that he will rise on the third day.
The Transfiguration
We
will start with a scripture called “Gospel of Thomas.” You will not find it in
the Bible. It is one of the Gnostic Christian
Scriptures. The
Gospel According to Thomas, commonly shortened to the Gospel of Thomas,
is a well preserved early Christian, non-canonical sayings-gospel
which many scholars believe provides insight into the Christian
Oral Tradition. It was discovered near Nag Hammadi, Egypt, in December 1945,
in one of a group of books known as the Nag
Hammadi library. The Gospel of Thomas was found among a
collection of fifty-two writings that included, in addition to an excerpt from Plato's Republic,
gospels claiming to have been written by Jesus's disciple Philip.
The Gospel According to Mary Magdalene
is also one of the many gnostic Christian scriptures found. This is important
because women did not write scripture in this time period. It probably was not
picked to be in the Bible because it was written by a woman.
Scholars
have speculated that the works were buried in response to a letter from Bishop Athanasius
who for the first time declared a strict canon of
Christian scripture.
The
Coptic language
text, the second of seven contained in what modern-day scholars have designated
as Codex II, is composed of 114 sayings attributed to Jesus.
Almost half of these sayings resemble those found in the Canonical Gospels,
while it is speculated that the other sayings were added from Gnostic
tradition. Its place of origin may have been Syria, where Thomasine
traditions were strong.
The
introduction states: "These are the hidden words that the living Jesus
spoke and Didymos Judas Thomas wrote them down." Didymus (Greek) and Thomas (Aramaic)
both mean "twin". Some critical scholars suspect that this reference
to the Apostle Thomas is
false, and that therefore the true author is unknown.
As
many as 100 Gnostic text was passed around in the first six centuries before
the Romans took over Christianity. From
the Bible Gospel texts, it appears that Thomas was more of a scientist than a
person that takes things on faith. He wanted to see and feel the holes in the
body of Jesus after resurrection.
The Point of Transfiguration
I believe that this next information was not put in the
Roman Bible because this story is too complicated to talk about. The Gnostic
Christian Scriptures give a detailed account of what happened when the stone
rolled away from the tomb and
three beings walked out. The account came from the Roman guards themselves. The
guards were placed on duty knowing that someone may try to steal the body of
Jesus and say that he rose from the dead. The guards saw a light in the tomb. They saw the stone roll away by itself
from the entrance. They heard a voice say, “Did you preach the gospel to the
dead?” One of the figures coming out of the tomb said, “Yes.” Then they flew up into the sky. The guards ran and
told their superiors what happen. They were paid to keep this information to
themselves.
In my opinion, the
Shroud of Tourane is probably the burial cloth of Jesus. It and the facial
cloth have blood on it and it matches perfectly with one another. The Shroud
has a full length front and back of a man on it. This image was not painted on
the cloth and the cloth is at least 1,400 years old. I say it is 2,000 years
old.
If you ever had nothing to do at 3:00 AM at work when you are trying to
fix a computer system problem, you may have done something stupid? You may do
stupid things like taking your pants down and copying your butt on the copy
machine.
The only way that this image of a man could be put on the Shroud of
Tourane is to copy the image of the body onto the cloth like it was going
through the light of a copying machine. This technology did not exist one
hundred years ago let along 2,000 years ago. So the Shroud of Tourane could not
be a fake. If it is not a fake then you must consider the possibility that the
shroud has the image of the crucified Jesus on it at the point of resurrection.
Mary Magdalene, was she a disciples, a converted prostitute, or the wife of Jesus and the mother of his child?
First Contact
Mary Magdalene was walking to the tomb to oil the body of Jesus.
On the way she met a man that said, “Why do you search for the living among the
dead?” She did not know him and did not answer him. When she arrived at the tomb she found it empty. She
ran back to the disciples and reported that the body of Jesus was stolen. The
disciples went to the tomb and found the burial cloth of Jesus as it was
when he was inside of it. It still had the closed ties on it just like it was
three days earlier. At that point they knew that Jesus was resurrected from the
dead.
Jesus appeared before Mary Magdalene again
and revealed himself to her. She wanted to touch him but he said, “Touch me not
because he has not returned to his father.” That is like me saying to you
“Don’t touch me because I have not gone to the store to buy myself some fruit.”
As you can see, one has nothing to do with the other.
The real reason why Jesus
may not want to be touched is because he was not yet fully in the “Holy Dimension.” At the time
after the resurrection, he could travel between time and space to other
dimensions. This fact may have caused a problem for Mary. For some reason,
Jesus was not ready to be touched safely.
In my opinion, Jesus was not in front of
Mary. She was looking at an image. Jesus was in another place. At that point he
had the ability to pass through time and space, affecting many places at the
same time. Jesus did not want to be touched because if Mary would have tried,
her hands would have passed through him. This would have hurt Mary’s faith in Jesus
and defeated his future plans for the disciples.
Mary went back and reported this to the other
disciples. They did not believe her for two reasons. She was a woman and women
at that time did not have the same social status as men. Second, from their
point of view, Jesus would have talked to them before talking to her. After all,
they are more important than Mary Magdalene.
Second Contact
Jesus walked through the walls of the place
where they were meeting. All the disciples except Thomas were present. They
talked to him before he departed. When Thomas came, they told Thomas that Jesus
was with them. He did not believe it. To this day, we call people who do not
believe something, “A Doubting Thomas!” Later Jesus returned when Thomas was
present. Thomas (a true scientist), wanted to see and feel the damage to his
body done by the crucifixion. Jesus had him put his hands into his side. Then
Thomas believed that it was Jesus.
Third Contact
Jesus was walking down the road and met three
of his followers. They talked and then they invited Jesus to stay the night.
They did not know it was Jesus until they sat down to eat. Jesus blessed the
food and broke the bread. The only person that ever broke bread like that was
Jesus. Jesus dropped the bread onto the plate. By the time the bread hit the
plate, Jesus was gone.
Conclusion
For 40 days, Jesus walked the Earth. At the
end of the 40 days, Jesus said good-bye and ascended into the sky. In my
opinion, his objective was to show that he did return from the dead and to
again tell his followers, whoever believes in him will go to heaven as his
guest. He also told his disciples to spread the word of his teachings around
the world. Since his disciples lost their fear of death due to Jesus return,
they could now carry out the message of Jesus.
This story explains many things besides the
message of Jesus. If you read the Gospel of Thomas, it suggests that Heaven
overlays Earth and they both exist in time and space together. We and Heaven
are in different dimensions occupying the same place. In my opinion, Jesus
exists in both dimensions. Jesus is the future ruler of this world and only through prayer in his name can
people enter into the dimension of Heaven. By believing that Jesus was here to
deliver us to Heaven, you will have a place on the future remake of Earth in
this dimension.
As for the aliens, they are
here occupying this dimension and other dimensions. Some are here to help Jesus
carry out his plans and some are here to mess things up. Yet some are here and
have a separate covenant. They have nothing to do with our salvation. They may
be under a separate God and “Son of God.” We will find out who is correct about
the hereafter, when you and I die!
