"The time is
coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they
will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will
turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into fables." - 2nd letter
to Timothy 4:3-4
(written shortly before execution by decapictation
) |
"Roman influence divested Christianity of some of
its profound primeval
psychological knowledge. Christian tribes developing under different
cultural conditions created forms so variegated that maintaining unity turned
out to be an historical
impossibility." - Andrew M.
Lobaczewski Jesus fasted for forty days and nights
in the Judaean Desert.
Driven by the Holy Spirit into the desert, Jesus
remains there for forty days without eating; he lives among wild beasts, and
angels minister to him.
The evil one tempts Jesus to bend the physics
of reality thus gaining the keys to all the kingdoms of the world but Jesus
declines.
At this point in time he became the Lamb of God, divinely
chosen to fight the corruption of the traditions of the founders of Israel,
showing everyone the path to righteousness.
Cathartic breakthroughs can
occur without 40 days of fasting through Jesus.
In the first few
centuries, there were a number of conflicts over which
direction the Roman Catholic
Church would take.
The earliest conflict revolved
around Saul of Tarsus, a
Hellenized Hebrew convert
to the Zaddikim Cult, which
already had a supernatural
Hebrew Messiah, versus James, the brother of
Jesus, also known as James the Just.
Saul of Tarsus, the
reformulated "Paul", won out in a largely
Hellenized
population so it is no surprise the writing of
Saul of Tarsus dominate the
New Testament.
This form of
Christianity is known as Pauline
Christianity.
The conversion of
Saul of Tarsus into "Paul" can be
dated to a couple years after the crucifixion of Jesus of Nazareth, by
reference to it in his letters.
According to the account in
Acts, it took place on the road to Damascus, where he reported having
experienced a vision of the resurrected Jesus.
The account says that
"he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why
persecutest thou me?" Saul replied, "Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I
am Jesus whom thou persecutest!"
In Galatians 1:16 Saul writes that God
"was pleased to reveal his son to me."
In 1 Corinthians 15:8, as he
lists the order in which Jesus appeared to
his disciples after his resurrection, Saul writes, "last of all, as to one
untimely born, He appeared to me also."
Saul was a young
Hellenized Hebrew Zaddikim
fanatic charged with the
seizure and the execution of disciples of Jesus.
On the road to
Damascus Saul was struck with the realization that he could mold
the evolving legend of Jesus,
one of the last Tannaim.
Within the
Sanhedrin the last remaining elements of a Hasmonean high priest inner circle
cult, the Zaddikim, still existed.
The Zaddikim,
an extremist apocalyptic
sect, stated aim was to invoke
the intervention of supernatural powers to establish Israel as a sovereign
realm.
The Zaddikim, the inner circle of the
Hasmonean dynasty
Sadducees, had Sicarii
leadership to rouse the zealotry of the peasants.
"His
whole state of mind shows the
influence of the Hellenistic lore of Alexandria, especially the
Hermes literature, hence
his strange belief in supernatural powers.
Throughout Paul's writings
an irrational or
pathological element could not but repel the disciples of the Rabbis.
The conception of a new
faith, half pagan and half Jewish, such as Saul preached, and
susceptibility to its influences, were altogether foreign to the nature of
Jewish life and thought." - Kaufmann Kohler, rabbi Emeritus of Temple Beth-El,
New York
Modern scholars believe that Jesus preached mainly to Hebrews
as Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist whose opinions he would have shared.
James, as leader of the Jerusalem Church, taught both Aramaic and Greek
speakers.
Saul of Tarsus, as the 'Apostle to
the Gentiles,' made the teaching of Jesus relevant and interesting to the
Hellenized Judiac population.
In order for the fledgling Christianity to
gain attention in the Hellenized
culture, the religion had to obtain certain characteristics common to the
other gods and religions of that time.
There was a ready structural
model to be found in the State religion of Rome.
Rome adopted the myths
of the Greek city states spread throughout the Mediterranean by the Greek
colonizers - Alexander III of Macedonia who conquered all the ancient cultures
from the Ionian Sea to the Himalayas. |

This web site is not a commercial web site and
is presented for educational purposes only.
This website defines a
new perspective with which
to engage reality to which its author adheres. The author feels that the
falsification of reality outside personal experience has forged a populace
unable to discern propaganda from reality and that this has been done
purposefully by an international corporate cartel through their agents who wish
to foist a corrupt version of reality on the human race. Religious intolerance
occurs when any group refuses to tolerate religious practices, religious
beliefs or persons due to their religious ideology. This web site marks the
founding of a system of philosophy named The Truth of the Way of the
Lumière Infinie - a rational
gnostic mystery
religion based on reason which requires no leap of faith, accepts no
tithes, has no supreme leader, no church buildings and in which each and every
individual is encouraged to develop a personal relation with the Creator and
Sustainer through the pursuit of the knowledge of reality in the hope of curing
the spiritual corruption that has enveloped the human spirit. The tenets of the
Truth of the Way of the Lumière Infinie are spelled out in detail on
this web site by the author. Violent acts against individuals due to their
religious beliefs in America is considered a "hate crime."
This web site
in no way condones violence. To the contrary the intent here is to reduce the
violence that is already occurring due to the international corporate cartels
desire to control the human race. The international corporate cartel already
controls the world economic system, corporate media worldwide, the global
industrial military entertainment complex and is responsible for the collapse
of morals, the elevation of self-centered behavior and the destruction of
global ecosystems. Civilization is based on coöperation. Coöperation
does not occur at the point of a gun.
American social mores and values
have declined precipitously over the last century as the corrupt international
cartel has garnered more and more power. This power rests in the ability to
deceive the populace in general through corporate media by pressing emotional
buttons which have been preprogrammed into the population through prior
corporate media psychological operations. The results have been the destruction
of the family and the destruction of social structures that do not adhere to
the corrupt international elites vision of a perfect world. Through distraction
and coercion the direction of thought of the bulk of the population has been
directed toward solutions proposed by the corrupt international elite that
further consolidates their power and which further their purposes.
