Secret Bilderberg Agenda To Microchip Americans Leaked- June 10/08
Should we be worried about this? The promoters of the chip use
'safety' of our borders, our children, and the quick identification of terrorists and suspected criminals
as reasons to have the chip implanted.
But it will come down to this; You cannot buy, sell, get a job, go to a hospital, get on an airplane,
or enroll your kids in school with out this chip. Are we to become a nation of 'completely
controlled' individuals? It looks that way.
This is the legendry "Mark of the Beast". Are you willing to have this implanted under your skin?
Oh, and by the way, Masons have nothing to do with this.
Forbidden Knowledge - What does God
have to do with it?...Everything !

The Mystery Religions
There existed both in the Greek and Roman cultures certain practices
known as the Mystery Religions. These were not confined to Greece and Rome. Evidence
of them may be found in the early cultures of China, India, Egypt, and other ancient
civilizations. They were secret religious assemblies with special initiation rites, and most
certainly these were present in the time of Jesus. Undoubtedly they had an influence on
the growth of the ceremonies of early Christianity. In fact, the Apostle Paul in some
of his letters found it necessary to protest against the intrusion of pagan practices
into the Christian Church. In one instance he warned the new Christian converts that
they must not drink to excess at the Lord's Supper.
At another point he emphasized
that he did not participate in the growing practice of baptism. Despite the warnings
some of the customs of the Mystery Religions became an integral part of Christian
Ritual. One only needs to examine some of the mysticism surrounding the festivals
of Christmas and Easter to understand the syncretism that occurred and has been
Lost as the centuries have passed. We should remind ourselves again that the Roman
Catholic Church, with its elaborate ceremonies, was once the main support of
Freemasonry and the ceremonies connected with that order. All of the ceremonies
of the Christian Church and of Freemasonry contain overtones of the ancient Mystery
Religions.
The Mystery Religions were very selective in their membership. No uninitiated
person was permitted to take part in the ceremonies. Note the relationship here
with the Christian Holy Communion, and also with the practices of Freemasonry.
The Mystery Religions appear to have had a double purpose. First, they wished to
hand down, from generation to generation, the traditions associated with the gods
in whose honour they were organized. Secondly, they taught very carefully how
certain rituals were to be performed, and then trained their initiates to carry out
those rituals exactly. Under no circumstances were there to be variations from the
ancient traditions, even in the words of the rituals. The prime purpose of the Mystery
Religions was not to teach dogmatic religious beliefs; it was to strive for the moral
improvement of their membership. The rituals were designed not only to improve
the morals of the adherents, but also to implant in their membership a hope for
the life that would go on after death.
The first remarkable resemblance between the Mysteries and Freemasonry
is that membership rested on the voluntary choice of the individual. No one was
ever invited to belong to a mystery religion. The individual had to volunteer to
become a member. If the individual indicated his desire and if he were accepted,
then he had to submit himself to the Initiation Rites. These rites were designed to
provide for the candidate an emotional experience that would tie him forever to
his spiritual beliefs. When that was done he was accepted into a fellowship, designed to
give him support as he became more and more absorbed into a community of
regenerated individuals.
The ultimate goal of the Mystery Religions was to establish a relationship between
the individual and the gods. It was supposed to be an intimate and personal type
of communication, that would bring to the individual the particular help he needed
to live the type of life expected of him as a member of the religion. For the Mysteries
the initiation rites sought to bring the individual, no matter what his age, a sense
of being born again and, as he grew in knowledge, to admit him to a sense of maturity
that he did not possess before. After he was initiated and as he was transformed
from childhood to maturity, he was expected to share in the social duties of the
religion. The social and moral issues that faced the particular nation became his
responsibility.
There are many things about the Mystery Religions that are not known. The reason
is that the religions had an inviolable rule that all Initiation Rites and instruction
were transmitted by word of mouth. It was forbidden that anything be written.
Thus the customs and traditions were handed down orally from individual to individual
and from group to group. We have never been able to discover, for instance, what
exactly happened in the Ceremony of Initiation. On the other hand it is known that
the total effect of a Mystery Religion was to weld a chain of continuity that lasted
through the ages. The system disappeared with the growth of the Christian Religion,
and the collapse of the Roman culture in the early years of this era. When Rome
was overrun by the barbarians of Europe in the First Century A.D., the Mystery
Religions, as such, disappeared, although remnants of heir practices survived.

THE MISTS OF ANTIQUITY

If you have a King James Bible,
the Latin Vulgate bible,
or a copy of the Torah, the most important question there is - is -
Who is the 'US' in Genesis 1:26, 3:22 and 11:7?
Before we tell you the answer, we need to focus on a political problem that is
directly tied to a religious difference. Everything in the news these days seems to
focus on the War on Terror. While we are looking for Bin Laden our soldiers are
being killed fighting what seems to be an undefeatable enemy. The enemy claims they
are defending their faith - or so it would seem.
The basis for religious wars.
March 2006; Arrested, an Afghan man is facing a possible
death penalty for converting from Islam to Christianity may be mentally unfit to
stand trial, a state prosecutor said Wednesday. Abdul Rahman, 41, has been charged
with rejecting Islam, a crime under Afghanistan's Islamic laws. His trial started
last week and he confessed to becoming a Christian 16 years ago. If convicted,
he could be executed. see the article Conversion
Update March 26th; The charge has been dismissed for lack of evidence..but it
is still under investigation.
Islamic Men can be dragged out of their
homes and beaten for missing the call to worship! Catholics are miscommunicated for
disobeying the dogmatic rules of the church!.
Are Jews still stoned?
Genocide in Darfur: The ICC will soon decide whether to issue an arrest
warrant for General Omar al-Bashir, President of Sudan, on charges of war crimes,
crimes against humanity and genocide in Darfur.
March 5, 2009; President Omar Hassan al-Bashir was charged by the International Criminal
Court with war crimes and crimes against humanity.
Mass murder and genocide in recent years have involved:
The execution of individuals who have simply decided to change their religion,
Mass murder of followers of a minority religion by members of a dominant religion,
Mass murder of followers of one faith group by others of the same religion.
Mass murder and genocide of an identifiable group for a variety of reasons.
Why is this happening? Why aren't religious freedoms
protected everywhere? Why does a religious sect have 'control' over what you are
allowed to believe and especially the 'control' of the government with religiously
bias laws that may result in the death of Abdul? As we explained on the Intro
page, the Masons who helped form the U.S. government and wrote the constitution made
sure we are not threatened with these kind of laws. We are proud to be a religiously
diverse country that prefers religious tolerance over a 'forced on us' faith. But then
we have to overlook the intolerance of each religion in order to reach common ground.
Most people are appalled at the 'no tolerance, religiously controlled' law of
countries like Pakistan and Iran, ect., but if we look at the evidence this has been the major cause
of conflicts and war. It happened with Hitler. It happened when Rome took control of Israel. It's
happening right now in Afghanistan and Pakistan it has everything to do with the conflict between
Israel and Hamas
and Hazbollah.
So how many countries have been affected with Holy Wars? Is Iran building a nuclear
reactor so they can extract the spent rods and build a weapon to destroy Israel and us because
of the differences in 'which' god or Son of God we worship? It's very likely they are!
Then we ask why are
Sunni Muslims attacking
Shiite Muslims and Christians?
What happened that made people like Osama bin Laden and his Taliban fighters the
most radical and feared religious group in the world? What made
Al Qaeda a world wide organization?
MEN! Men that want to control what you believe! Men that will go out of their
way to spread a lie like the
Taxil hoax
which suggests that Masons worship a devil.
In the case of Al Qaeda, their goal: It seeks to rid Shiite Muslim countries of what it sees as
the profane influence of the West and replace their governments with fundamentalist Islamic
(religiously controlled) regimes.
Al Qaeda
Some Sunni groups, often labeled as extremists, such as the Taliban or Al Qaeda,
have even advocated the persecution of the Shi'a (Shiite) as heretics. Such groups
have been responsible for violent attacks and suicide bombings at Shi'a gatherings
at mosques and shrines, most notably in Iraq during the Ashura mourning ceremonies
where hundreds of Shi'as were killed in coordinated suicide bombings, but also
in Pakistan and Afghanistan.
However, many Shi'as have come to welcome the ostracization by the Sunni
majority, which helps distance them from such Sunni phenomena (albeit extremist)
as the Taliban and Al-Qaeda.
Under the most liberial Masonic teaching, this fighting is wrong. Most
religious groups get along, at the very least they tolerate each other. But
like the Afghan man above, there are still major religious differences that influence
the government and it's leaders.
We Ask Why? Because our religious freedoms are not protected enough? How
many countries actually protect religious freedoms? Not Many! But that's only one reason.
Another is because some, like the more traditional Islam are misunderstood.
Since there are now many forms of Islam and christinaty how do we know
which ones are opposed to killing people of other religious groups? Which ones are not?
It is the radical groups that leave nothing to the imagination. The Taliban just want to kill
Americans and anyone who supports them.
Even more radicals, like black Islamic radicals just want to kill whites. Is this what their
religious branch teaches them? Yes! The more traditional Islam will not allow killing anyone.
How did religion get to this point? It only takes one man! All he has to do is convince
others he's right. Then it only took bin Laden a few million dollars to start a Holy War!
The United States and Britian have been trying to install and support a government in
Iraq that respects three religious parties and their ideals, but it must include basic
human rights....like allowing women to go to school and making it a crime if a man is
caught beating his wife. Of cource the Sunni Muslims don't like this idea...because
it takes away the total control of the men on any given subject. They have been taught
to 'kill' anyone who disagrees with them. The key word is "taught"...brainwashed!
Those of you who are against the war would do well to consider the women and children
who will be sacrificed in the name of the Sunni (Al Quada) new radical Allah if they succeed.
These radical Muslims do not support freedom of the people, they support a religiously controlled
government where a few susposed religious leaders make all the decisions. No outsider
can vote or complain and in this case all the Shiites, including women and children
will be executed. They are also held hostage and used as human shields. And lets
not forget the thousands of Kurds than Saddam had exterminated. What we see happening
is Iran will defend the Shites and Saudia Arabia will come in to defend the Sunni's.
This presents the possiblity of an all out nuclear war!
This by no means should show any disrespect for our soldiers. They need our prayers and support
but doesn't it make sence to bring them home from a war they cannot possibly stop
between the Shi'as and the Sunnis? Their religion drives them to murder where ever they are
and maybe we shouldn't be a part of that even if we know what the outcome will be.
Syria controlls Lebonnon and it will be taken over by the Hezbollah (hamas) and they will rally
to destroy Israel. Islamist Hamas has tried to take over the West Bank and the Palestinain government.
An all-out-civil-war is looming in the future. Israel and the US will be victims of who ever wins it!
Hamas has 'called' every Muslim to come help them destroy Israel.
This religious investigation also applys to Allah or Muhammed and two
of our friends at
farrakhanfactor.com Forum
(an Islamic forum site) who have agreed to disagree with us:
This was posted by a man who identifies
himself as Blackmuslimcouncil - Cincinnati, Ohio; "The devil is the God of the wicked
(the Caucasian race) whose world must be destroyed to allow the World of Righteousness
as its ruler."
Is this why blacks and whites can't get along? Is this a radical group? This
statement seems to be a threat to our National Security as well as our religious freedoms
and we hope the FBI is paying attention.
Another forum member (our friends),'Truthseeker' or 'Truthseeking black man'
and 'Bilal Qaadir Muhammad' disagrees with most of these radical muslims and agrees with us.
What they say makes allot of sence. see
farrakhanfactor.com Forum
in the middle of the page.
As to Racism! - Hate! This is exactly what fuels the fire to seperate us! Who is teaching these
Muslims this? A radical cleric who controlls what they are taught! We would suggest that a few Black
Brother Masons post replies to this racist statement. We have pointed out the fact that if we
don't stick together, Iran or Syria has a missle just for us and they don't care what color your skin is.
A further Islamic religious investigation reveals more: Ask yourself why the Muslim Fatima looks
allot like the virgin Mary. The truth is that the Jesuits (Catholics CIA) created her
as the daughter of Muhammad and the Arabs fell for it. Why? - "What has this got
to do with Islam?
Muhammad was born on the
outskirts of Mecca in the Year of the Elephant. Most Muslims equate this with the Gregorian year
570 but a few prefer 571. Did Pope Gregory I
have someting to do with this? also see
The Rise of Islam,
education and Christinaty.
As the story goes; After Muhammad died, a series of Caliphs governed the Islamic State:
Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman, and Ali. These first Caliphs are popularly known as
the "Rashidun" or "rightly-guided" Caliphs. After the Rashidun, a series of Caliphates
were established. Each caliphate was a monarchy, developed its own unique laws
and adopted a particular sect of Islam as a State religion. Until the ninth century
the Muslim World would remain a single political entity under the leadership of one
Caliph. The early Caliphate is also known as the Arab Empire or Islamic Empire.
Just like Christianity, Islam has divided it's self into many forms, each one
with a dfferent opinion on what they believe.
The year 1000. This time also marks the disintegration of the Muslim Caliphate,
an imposing and united rival only a century before. Muslim unity was hobbled by
the divisions between Shiite and Sunni conflicts as well as Arab Persian ones. At
this time, there were three caliphs, an Umayyid caliph in Spain, an Abbasid caliph
in Baghdad, and a Shiite (Fatimid) caliph in Egypt. The population of Baghdad, the
Abbasid capital, had shrunk to 125,000 (compared to 900,000 in AD 900). The
Umayyids were still strong and assertive in 1000, but declined rapidly after 1002
and disappeared entirely by 1031. These seperations of opinion are the work of Men, Not God!
Christianity had established itsself in 44AD at
Antioch Turkey. Antioch was destined
to rival Alexandria as the chief city of the nearer East and to be the cradle of
gentile Christianity. It was one of the four cities of the Syrian tetrapolis. During the 4th
century, Antioch was one of the three most important cities in the eastern Roman
empire (along with Alexandria and Constantinople), which led to it being recognized
as the seat of one of the five early Christian patriarchates.
The chief interest of Antioch under the empire lies in its relation to Christianity.
Evangelized perhaps by Peter, according to the tradition upon which the Antiochene
patriarchate still rests its claim for primacy (cf. Acts xi.), and certainly by Barnabas
and Paul, who here preached his first Christian sermon in a synagogue, its converts
were the first to be called Christians (Acts 11:26).
They multiplied exceedingly, and by the time of Theodosius were reckoned by
Christiandom at about 100,000 souls. Between 252AD and 300AD, ten assemblies of the
church were held at Antioch and it became the seat of one of the four original
patriarchates, along with Jerusalem, Alexandria, and Rome (see Pentarchy). Today
Antioch remains the seat of a patriarchate of the Oriental Orthodox churches.
Antioch gave its name to a certain school of Christian thought, distinguished by
literal interpretation of the Scriptures and insistence on the human limitations of
Jesus. Diodorus of Tarsus and Theodore of Mopsuestia were the leaders of this school.
In an attempt to unify Islam and Christianity, Christian bishops invented Fatima.
We take note of Bishop Sheen’s statement: "Our Lady’s
appearances at Fatima marked the turning point in the history of the world’s 350
million Muslims."(Bishop Sheene is a popular christian televangelist in the US.)
After the death of his daughter, Muhammad wrote that she "is the most holy of
all women in Paradise, next to Mary." But did Muhammad really write this? This is
probably the result of one religious party declaring 'holy war' on another, trying
to 'convert' those they consider 'sinners' or non-believers. Is this subtle
persuasion or is it an outright lie? In this instance Bishop Sheen and
other christians like him wanted the divinity of Fatima to be like Mary so that
Muslims would also believe in the divinity of Christ too. If you care to read some
of the postings from the forum, you will see that a few educated Muslim 'Masters'
have proof this is true. More proof, explained by a former Jesuit priest is on
our page called Christ's Mission 2 and it is again confirmed on the
farrakhanfactor.com Forum
in the middle of the page by GHETTOMESSIAH.
"quote"; THE POWERFUL ROMAN CATHOLIC TEACHER, AUGUSTINE, APPEARED
IN NORTH AFRICA. HE RE-WROTE THE GOSPEL, AND PRETENDED TO BE A CHRISTIAN
AND A GREAT APOSTLE OF CHRIST. HIS WRITINGS BECAME FAMOUS. AUGUSTINE'S MISSION
WAS TO DEVELOP A TECHNIQUE TO CONVERT ARABS TO CATHOLOCISM, HIS VEHICLE WAS MUHAMMAD.
MUHAMMAD'S SPIRITUAL ADVISER WAS WARAQA, HIS WIFE'S UNCLE.. HE COUNSELED
HIM ON THE INTERPRETATION OF HIS VISIONS. BEING A FAITHFUL ROMAN CATHOLIC,
WARAQA GUIDED MUHAMMAD TO GIVE THE VIRGIN MARY A PLACE OF PROMINENCE IN
THE KORAN. THIS WOULD FORM A LINK BETWEEN ISLAM AND THE VATICAN.
THE VATICAN, UNDER POPE BONEFACE V AND HIS SUCCESSOR HONORIUS I SECRETLY
FINANCED MUHAMMAD'S MILITARY FOR THE EXCHANGE OF JERUSALEM. THE LEADERS
OF ISLAM REFUSED BECAUSE THEY REGARDED JERUSALEM THEIR SECOND MOST HOLY
PLACE, NEXT TO MECCA..." So...due to Catholic interference, the Muslims control
the Holy Dome of the Rock and mostly what's left of Solomon's Temple. We also
think catholics were instramental in Hitler's extermination of the Jews.
This takes us to the most basic fundamental problem all
cultures come face to face with. What we say, what we put in print, can and does
effect other people. Our opinions and our likes and dislikes affect every one we
come in contact with. We have the most vast array of communication equipment the
world has ever know...yet with all this we are not carefull that what we say or
put in print might have a profound effect on someone. Even the spreading of a
'rumor' might cause someones life to change overnight. Tabloid journalism sells
as sensationalism wheather it's fact or not. People tell outright lies just to get
on the news. Sometimes the only way to stop a rumor or a tabloid lie is to present
the facts that support the truth. This is our goal.
What happened when the Pope (2005) quoted a
14th century book?
...All Hell broke loose! Is this ignorance? Stupidity? Probably. He did say 14th
century but you see what effect it had on the Muslim radicals....Any excuse - Right?
We have trusted our religious leaders for hundreds of years to tell us the
truth, but what we actually have is a personal interpretation or an interpretation
agreed to by a majority of church leaders. This applies to all organized churches or
Mosques, ect.
That doesn't make it true or even fact.
It simply means they want you to believe them no matter what they say. You are not
allowed to question the teaching. You do not have the freedom to make your own
choices if you want to remain a member of any organized church. Then they tell
you the bible is God's or the Koran is Allah's word - We don't think it is. We think it's
the church's word, modified and edited over and over until it agrees with what a few men
want you to believe....again this does not represent fact and it does not represent
the true God.
The Jesus of Theology
325 C.E. marks a pivotal event in the history of Christianity. The Roman emperor Constantine;
He summoned more than 250 bishops to Nicea in Turkey to resolve a rancorous dispute which was
threatening to disrupt the newly won peace of his empire. While all the bishops agreed that
Jesus was the Son of God, they disagreed on whether he had existed with God before the
beginning of time (as the Alexandrians believed); or had been created later and was
subordinate to God (a position popularized by Arius of Antioch).
Constantine, still an unbaptized pagan at the time, decided in favor of the pre-existence
of Jesus. In addition he demanded that the bishops add to the creed (drawn up by Eusebius,
bishop of Caesarea) that Christ was "of one substance" (homoousion in Greek) with the
Father. It was theologically necessary that God himself had become mortal in order to
make the hope that mortals may obtain eternal life more believable. Under pressure of
banishment, the council agreed with only two dissenting votes. The true nature of the
Son of God was now an ineffable mystery beyond human understanding.
(To learn more about the first ecumenical council at Nicea,

"According to the Egyptian Gospel Jesus is supposed to have said to his disciples that
'the same was the Father, the same was the Son and the same was the Holy Ghost'."
- Seigfreid Morenz, Egyptian Religion
Beliefs About the Divine Nature of Jesus -
Distinct from God?
"The Father and I are one."
- John 10:30
"The Father is greater than I."
- John 14:28
"Paul's Christ is not God, he is God's first creation, and there is no room for the
trinitarian formula of the Athanasian Creed nor for its doctrine that the Son was 'not made,
nor created, but begotten.' But inasmuch as the visible universe is the expression of the
Invisible God, the Christ, as first-product, comprises the whole of that expression in himself."
- The Christian Conspiracy: The Orthodox Suppression of Original Christianity
"However, for those who had grown up around Antioch, the region that included the homeland
of the earthly Jesus, there was an altogether different emphasis and outlook. In the third century
the great Lucian of Antioch, reflecting Christianity's origins in Jewish monotheism, had stressed
the essential oneness of God, the simple humanity of Jesus, and the importance of the way of
life Jesus taught, which those obsessed with theology too easily overlooked."
- Ian Wilson, Jesus, The Evidence
The School of Antioch was in direct opposition to the School of Alexandria, which
supported the trinitarian creed. The Christians in Antioch claimed that they possessed the
true manuscripts (Textus Receptus) of the Gospels. They charged that the Alexandrian
manuscripts, which were used as the source for revised bible versions, were composed by heretics.
Although Arius was Deacon of the Church in Alexandria, Egypt, he was also a follower of
Lucian.
His philosophers and textual criticism opposed the trinitarian doctrine of the Alexandrian
school and provoked a crisis within the church. The Arian controversy, as it came to be
known, eventually spread across the Roman Empire.
Thus two completely different views emerged. One under the direction of the Imperial Romans
and the other from learned scholars of an ancient school - and with that the
Library at Alexandria
was burnt.
"By the time of the Emperor Constantine's [deathbed - -337 CE] conversion, when
Christianity became an officially approved religion in the fourth century, Christian bishops,
previously victimized by the police, now commanded them. Possession of books denounced
as heretical was made a criminal offense. Copies of such books were burned and destroyed.
But in Upper Egypt, someone, possibly a monk from a nearby monastery of St. Pachomius,
took the banned books and hid them from destruction - in the jars where they remained
buried for almost 1600 years."
- Eileen Pagels, The Gnostic Gospels (1989)
Why we might not need a religion at all!
We present facts; that is words taken from ancient scrolls,
clay tablets, archaeological digs and other historical writings conducted by the world's leading authorities
on one particular subject.. The difference between these words or artifacts being myth and truth
is the fact that several sources support the same idea, use the same scrolls,
tablets and archaeological references. When we find the same exact wording in one
text that we find in another, we consider this a representation of fact. We also
reference more than one author of any given book that we use as source material,
who has other supportive references to back up what he or she writes. In addition to
this, these writers have no religiously bias ideas to put forth. They are simply
stating facts or reprinting words as taken from the scrolls or tablets, which do not
support or denigh any religion...
The texts do however, verify the existance of certain characters in the biblical text.
Language seems to be the only barrier to these characters being identified
both in the bible and in the ancient scrolls and tablets. Their names coincide
with the language spoken in the country where the texts and scrolls are
found. Joseph had an Egyptian name and claimed he was 'father to a pharoah' - but who was it?
His will be an Egyptian name - but you won't find it in the bible. Joseph's sons were
Ephraim and
Manasseh. As part
of the Kingdom of Israel, the territory of Manasseh was conquered by the Assyrians
and the tribe exiled.
History says, the Israelites of Gilead, under the leadership of Jephthah, fought the
Tribe of Ephraim, the pronunciation of shibboleth as sibboleth was considered sufficient
evidence to single out individuals from Ephraim, so that they could be subjected to
immediate death by the Israelites of Gilead.
So Joseph's relatives were killed in an effort to extinguish their religious preferences.
But the tribes of Ham's sons lived on....The family had moved to Hierakonpolis Egypt in
about 3400 BC. The complete story and the archaeological proof is on the
Hiram Index 4 page.
When we find Nimrod as being a grandson of Ham, we will see his name
in the Egyptian language when we refer to Egyptian artifacts. But he also was in
Babylon during the building of the tower of Babel and he was not Hebrew or a Jew because
there was no such thing in 3100 B.C. His name will emerge in the Sumerian
language, only spelled a little differently. Narmer was his Egyptian name.
The same applies to Abraham as he was from Ur, another area of Babylon, in fact right
on the Persian Gulf. His name appears in the early Hebrew text as Abram but it is
AB.RAM in the Sumerian tongue.
Going back further we find Enoch. Keeping in mind that Enoch is the seventh descendent from
Adam - what language would he have spoken? Sumarian! The name in Sumerian is Eridu
and as the bible states, 'a city was named after him'. This city IS on the ancient Sumerian
map seen here.
When the bible (The Torah) was written their names appeared only in the
Hebrew language and this was rewritten and revised in the late 500's B.C. -
2000 plus years later. The origional language writings are more detailed and
reveal facts left out of the Hebrew version.
What we present breaks the language barrier because we can identify these
characters in the places where they actually lived 2500 years before the Bible, Torah or Koran
were written. This takes any 'faith' issue and turns it into a scientifically verifiable fact.
Keeping in mind that religious leaders have only one goal on mind, that is
getting your support which includes having you believe what ever they preach
(including radical Islam). Then they tell you to disregard everything else
even prompting you to label everybody else who is not of your faith, a sinner
or a heretic. As we said, this is the cause of war. This is the major cause of
hatered throughout the world. Breaking the language barrier might change their views.
In creating Christianity every form of deception, lie, and hatred was generated.
It is apparent that the creation of the Christ Mythos was rooted not in reality, but in past
mythologies. The early church, to survive, thrive, and dominate all others, had to define
itself as the only truth and it did so with the lowest and most contemptible of brain washing
techniques. It was necessary to demonize ALL people save those of the church. Denigration
of other gods, destruction of the symbolism of other religions, and the creation of miraculous
events, saints, and heroes in support of Christianity was the methodology.
With this in mind - we present the connecting evidence. This evidence
is meant to re-unite all religions so we can all get along. This information is
not religiously related but it does have a religiously related history because
we are going to compair the Bible and the Torah and related subjects and characters to archaeological
and historical evidence. This is a common sense approach that is verified over
and over by all of the ancient writings. Some of this is called circumstantial
evidence because in some instances we don't know who wrote the words. But this
evidence usually refers to the place and time something took place, added to other
clues which relate to the authenticity of the evidence and might include something
that can be radio-carbon dated or the DNA checked. The scientific evidence
generally verifies anything circumstantial. When an historical person's
envolvement is included, this becomes part of the proof. Since the characters name
will be in a different language, but at the same place and time the same exact
event took place, a real connection will emerge. Right down to the bare bone,
this is not rumor, myth or speculation, this is how we seperate faith from fiction and
get to the truth.
Matthew 13:35, "I will utter things
which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world."
The Oldest Religions
When we look at the evidence all modern religions are based on
a 'One God system' with a 'Holy Son' or prophet who guides the people into compliance with
that god's laws. But who makes the laws? Is it the god or is it a few men? What are
the sacred teachings of the Son? Who gives the people the idea that it's OK to try
and convert, punish or kill so-called non-belivers?
When we look at the evidence we find that Buddha's
teachings are very similar to Jesus'. Both Buddha and Jesus preached non-violence.
There are three more religious figures that are older than this - First the Persian
Vishnu. The Ramayana relates
the story of Lord Rama an incarnation of Vishnu.
The central message of the Ramayana is to demonstrate to us how to lead a virtuous
life that does not violate any law of nature. This epic has a Holy Mother and her Son.
This religion is dated from 500 B.C.
And then we have the Egyptian Ra - Father of the first divine couple, Shu and
Tefnut. Grandfather of Geb and Nut, whose children were Osiris and Isis, Seth
and Nephthys. As we recall, Osiris and Isis have a divine son - Horus. The
Egyptian gods included gods of fertility, and nature related activities..The
Egyptians were obsessed with the 'underworld'. They took great care to ensure
that their King reached the 'Afterlife'. You could say they were the first to
believe in 'life after death'. This religion is much older but Egyptologists
cannot agree on it's age because they do not want to promote a religion that
interfears with or contridicts Islam. So we can only go back to about 3500 B.C.
This becomes a serious problem when we try
and date the Pyramids because there
is evidence they are older than the Islamic Egyptologists want to admit...At least
10,000 B.C.. Current Egyptian Egyptologists are Muslim. They are not allowed
to admit that the early Egyptians had anything to do with Moses, Atlantis,
or a Hall of Records, which was found beneath the Sphinx's paw in 1999, by
the way, just as Edgar Cayce predicted. Arrangements made with President Sadat
of Egypt in 1978, resulted in three decades of top secret excavations to penetrate
the system. Sadat was assassinated due to the secret excavations and the fact
that he was a Mason. At a recent meeting in Australia, one of
the key scientists on the Giza project, Dr. Jim Hurtak, showed film footage of work in progress
called, CHAMBERS OF THE DEEP, due to be released at the end of the century. And a book
by Zecharia Sitchin reveals what they found inside the Great Pyramid.
According to the "calendar in stone" of the Great Pyramid, which describes the
so-called "Phoenix Cycle" of our galactic orbit, the present time period ends (converted
to our present calendar) in the year 2012 AD. The Greek word PHOENIX, derived from
the Egyptian word, PA-HANOK, actually means, "The House of Enoch". ..

The age of the Sphinx
by Robert Buvall
They denigh the existance of these findings because it makes their religion null and void. Dr.
Hawass did investigate a cavern under the sphinx in 1999 but he emerged saying he didn't find
anything and ordered the cavern closed up. The Government of Egypt which is Musslim will not allow
any information on this to be released to the public. Here we have a drawing of the chambers
under the Sphinx.
We recognize that Divine mothers and sons have
always been a part of religion and almost every religion has them. This is
the first connection that all religions started in the same place. The
similarities don't stop there - there are many more.
The oldest religiously important text in the world is
the Enuma Elish, otherwise known as the first Creation epic. This
text has a god named Anu and his divine sons Enki and Enlil. The text is written on
hundreds of clay tablets and was found in the Middle East by archaeologists in
1876. Civilization started in the land of Sumer, otherwise known as Babylonia over
10,000 years ago.
Do any of you remember Sargon? - Marduk? Our school children learn
about the ancient Greeks, the ancient Egyptians, the Romans and of course the
bible, but they are told little or nothing about the oldest of all civilizations
because the Sumerian writings pose such a threat to the cultish dogma of our
modern religions. What our schools teach in this regard is not accurate history,
but the propagandist ideal of a Church-led movement which is entirely dedicated
to supporting its own mythology, irrespective of the historical truth.
Sargon and Marduk have been verified to be historical characters who did
live in the Middle East over 4,000 years ago. We can then link these men with
events that happened after Noah's great flood. But what was going on before the
flood? Who are the men or shall we say Nephilim who corrupted mankind?
Genesis 6:4.
The Sumerologists historical finding would be enough to blow the lid off
traditional religious and historical propaganda, but their findings are surpressed
and contained so that the debates take place within the confines of academic
society and are very much rarely discussed in classrooms. We are told our children
are being shielded from the romance of mythology, but they are actually being
prevented from learning the truth of history. This is a purposeful, strategic
manipulation by an establishment, which knows only too well that learned people
are the greatest of all threats to governmental thradom.
the above is quoted from Laurence Gardner Genesis of the Grail Kings
Besides the Sumerian tablets we have the Turin Papyrus, a link to which you
will find at the bottom of the next page. The Sumerian King List was compiled
sometime before 2000 BC, and comprising some 15 different tablets. It provides an
uninterrupted record of kings from the very dawn of monarchy, beginning long before
the Flood and progressing down to the 18th century BC. It lists not only the
individual kings, but also gives their seats of kingship within Sumer. The schedule
begins with the pre-partrichal kings and this list not only mentions the Flood
but actually opens with the words,
"When kingship was lowered from Heaven."
Laurence Gardner Genesis of the Grail Kings
And he said, "There is Nothing Buried
That Will Not be Raised Up"
So even if you're not familiar with the King James Bible,
the truth lies in the oldest historical record in the world which began before
any religion was created.
...whereby Masonry becomes the center of union, and the means of
conciliating true friendship among persons that must
have remained at a perpetual distance." (Anderson's Constitutions)"
Archaeological and scientific records and artifacts that have
been discovered in more recent times leave little doubt that something
is missing from the King James bible stories we have all been taught. These records
and artifacts come from many places, some now considered lost forever. But what
these records and artifacts contain uncovers a truth that Jesus told us we would some
day find. Another man said the same thing. His name was Enoch.
Enoch is a biblical as well as an historical figure. He is mentioned as the
only man that was taken aloft by God and taught all the secrets of the Gods. This
verse (Genesis 5:21) says; "He walked with God". Note: it does not say he was taken
aloft in the biblical account, however the Secret Books of Enoch describe numberous
events of this walk in detail. A set of these books was recovered from Ethiopia
in 1768 by James Bruce, who was by-the-way, a member of the Knights Templar.. see
Enoch's Books
A copy of these books was also discovered with The Dead Sea Scrolls found in 1947.
These books describe the events related in Genesis 6:4. which deal with the so-called
fallen angles, otherwise known as Nephilim. The implications of this are huge.
The books are authentic so why is this account not included in the biblical tale?
The Book of Enoch dealing with the nature and deeds of the fallen angels so
infuriated the later Church fathers that one, Filastrius, actually condemned it
openly as heresy. Many other books were treated in this very same way
..reference; Book of Jubilees - Book of Jasher.
Here is a sample of why even the bishops could not agree..
Priscillianism and Pagan Survivals in Spain
Filastrius, bishop of Brescia, wrote his work on the various heresies about the
year 383, when the Priscillianist controversy was at its height. In this book he
refers to a group of people in Spain, known as the Abstinentes who teach and
practice the harmful doctrines of the Gnostics and Manicheans. Filastrius goes
on to say that these Abstinentes - probably the Priscillianists are meant - to
persuade married people to separate and teach that food is something evil
because it has been made by the devil.
If you read our
Hiram intro 3 page
(Automatic scroll down) You saw Enoch's words; "This scroll is to bring forth a new
cosmology of consciousness in explaining how the Brotherhoods of Light will work
with members of the Human Race who can accept the promise of New Life
in the myriad other universes. The Keys, thus, are to exemplify both
the spiritual understanding and the scientific understanding that must
converge if the right reality structure is to be shared by members of
the Human Race in taking a quantum leap forward into the New Age."
The key to this text is 'The spirtual and scientific understanding' That MUST CONVERGE.
The problem many people have with this text is that the words used, such as
'biochemical testing zone', sound very scientific and most people do not understand
how this person who lived 4000 years ago could have this kind of information,
little-lone understand it. We believe he lived more than 8000 years ago and other
scientifically related scrolls have been found that verify the knowledge necessary
to understand this and write it down. We have provided the examples that prove this.
Enoch was not the first person to understand pi and use geometry to build great
structures. Enoch also practiced medicine, pharmacy and alchemy.
The newly released "Gospel of Judas" contains almost the
very same subject matter: Jesus says to the disciples,"How do you know me? Truly I say
to you, no generation of the people that are among you will know me."What did he mean?
The reference to 'this generation of people', most likely means the teaching is
far beyond their understanding and that is verified in the Nag Hammidi Scrolls. There
is a much more significant sentence in this scroll that we will analyze shortly.
We will also tell you where the gospel is and how to get a printed copy in a little while.
In the mean time we will try to explain what he meant.
"To the Christians he [Judas] was the greatest of traitors, to the Gnostics he 'alone
knew the truth better than the other apostles {and thus} he accomplished the mystery
of the betrayal'."
- Maged S. Mikhail, "The Gnostics, A Survey of Gnostic Beliefs and Gnostic-Christian Ties"
According to Enoch, the ancient expressions of the Egyptian
- Hebrew - Tibetan - Sanskrit - Chinese tongues are to be used because they
faithfully connect with the Masters who are still administrating
Wisdom to this program of intelligence. These 'sounds of Light,' used
in laying the foundation of the present program, will figure
predominantly in the recapitulation of this program now at its Omega
point. We recommend that you read the entire 'Key' found here
Keys of Enoch
Some parts of the Dead Sea scrolls are still being kept hidden from the public.
The connections we present will show you why.
Jesus taught these things to the disciples.
Matthew 13:35, "I will utter things
which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world."
What do we really know about God?
Most of us are educated - Right? Most of us can
research any subject we choose right here on the internet - Right? Then we ask -
Why don't most people research religion? Where did it start? Why do we worship only
'One' god? According to theological sources, 'One god' worship was only begun in the time of Abraham,
around 2200 BC. But Adam was the first human to talk to God you say...
Little information is given about Enoch but we know he 'walked with God' as it is described in the KJB.
What does that really mean? The word 'walk' means alot more that the literal term implies. It means
learning and studing. In Sylvia brown's books, especially "Life on the Other Side", we found there
is a massive library. Anyone who want's to may spend as much time as he or she wants in this library.
It would have the same books we now have only much more scientific knowledge would be found.
Stuff a Rocket Scientist or a Nuclear physicist would know. Or DNA biology or 'cell theory'; The modern
version of the Cell Theory includes the ideas that: Energy flow occurs within cells. Heredity information
(DNA) is passed on from cell to cell. All cells have the same basic chemical composition.
This advanced knowledge is very evident when we read
Enoch's Keys
on Hiram Intro 3.
If you take into account that the beginnings of our modern bible weren't even written until around
425 AD, and it was edited more 4 times by the King of England right up until the
1700's, there is little doubt that parts were taken out - other parts inserted -
over and over. Not only that, but scribes who couldn't read, copied texts by hand
and they made allot of mistakes. Other scribes made changes to suit their own beliefs.
Translating Greek to other languages proved to be another problem when words were
used that did not mean the same thing in Greek. The first 5 chapters of the Old Testament
that became our modern bible were composed by Moses. These words taken from the Hebrew
Torah, were edited by Joshua and after that by Ezekiel after the captivity of the Jews.
But what about the New Testament?
How did we really obtain the true 'sayings of Jesus'? What we discovered is that scribes
often cut or added words they thought appropiate or they simply copied words incorrectly.
Again translated from Greek to Latin, ect., many mistakes were made.
Over and over the text was changed and not always by scribes. What were the Words of Jesus
before these changes? This book might give an answer.
And we suggest reading the
sayings of Buddah,
which parallel Jesus words. "There can be little doubt that many of the important sayings
of Jesus were uttered by the Buddha five hundred years before Jesus. The Catholic
church has tried to deny this for the last 2000 years but the time has come to acknowledge
the truth about Jesus.
The Hebrew text as thus handed down is full of errors of every kind due
to defective archetypes and successive copyists' errors, confusion of letters
(of which several in the Hebrew alphabet are singularly alike), omissions and
insertions, displacements of words and even of whole sentences or paragraphs;
and copyists' unhappy attempts to rectify mistakes have often only increased
the confusion.
The order of the books of the Old Testament followed in the present translation,
though not entirely the same as that found in Hebrew manuscripts and in the ancient
versions, is that of the Authorized and Revised Versions. see
Introduction to the Old Testament
The Old Testament: The original cannon that became our King James bible was
compiled by Catholic bishops - who have claimed for themselves surpreme authority over
what you are allowed to believe for almost 2000 years. That means the Hebrew Torah and
the modern bible have been translated by men - usually the religious authorities of
their day. There are allot of words in the Torah that do not mean the same thing in
the English translation. Other words like the word 'Elohim' and the word
'US' in Genesis have just been ignored.
If you have read the King James Bible you probably have already discovered that
there are many contradictions...many things that make no sense at all...like - Who
was Cain's wife? Where did she come from? Why are there two sets of descendents
listed for Cain and Seth that have almost the same names - In fact one is the same -
Enoch! Why?
In Numbers 13:28 we find giant Anakim - They are called 'the descendents of
the ancient giant race' in Numbers 13:33. Who are they?
Wouldn't you like
these questions answered?
Most important case and point - 'Who is the
'US' in Genesis 1:26 and 3:22 if there is only one god? Our Hiram Index and Intro series has
most of the answers.(links below)
We took this from a private entry in the guest book; "This site is great.
Been reading every night for days. The last few months I have been reading
the bible and some of the things I thought were odd, I have found that what
I was thinking, are explained here. THANK YOU.
Here's another one; Nigeria and USA Comments: I always knew there had to be more
and the more finally seems to be coming out but why now? Is it the advent of the information age or
do these things being revealed on a wide scale at his time mean something is going to happen?
Very interesting stuff and I appreciate the amount of research and work that has gone into putting it
all together. I must admit there is just too much here to digest quickly, allot to think
about. Thank You.
If you read Enoch's books you were informed that 'another generation' would
come to understand the teachings. Jesus said the very same thing. This generation
is being introduced to this now because we are the incarnated Masters who will except
it and prepare the way for the 'second coming'. This means that all religions
will unite and there will be piece among all nations. Try explaining that to a
Christian - which includes Catholics, or a Jew or a Muslim.
As far as Christinaity is concerned, the scriptures
we have excepted as 'God's' word are taken from the Hebrew Torah
and written by Moses (so we are told), and are their version of God and his
creations including man - Right? We mentioned there is another source. A
source that is more than 5000 years old and in this version there was more than
'one god'...in fact there were many more. Our religious society has told us we are to
ignore, mistrust and consider ALL 'OTHER' religions heretical, pagan and false...
even Judisim because they do not recognize Jesus as a 'savior'. It would depend on
what your definition of 'savior' meant and if you take into account the real history
of the Jews, Jesus didn't save them! The Muslims say Jesus didn't die on
the cross, but they believe he was a great profit.
Whatever the belief is, the basics of the religions all came from the same
source, most including a virgin mother and Holy Son. The point is they all had one
single important thing in common. They believed in a God, a supreme being,
a creator of all things. The problem is that each religion uses a different name
for Him.
Is this due to a language barrier or
could it be that there IS more than One God?
Monotheism
(in Greek µ???? = single and ?e?? = God), in contrast with
polytheism, is the belief in the one, single, universal, all-encompassing God.
In traditional Jewish, Christian, and Islamic thought,
only those religions derived from biblical sources were considered monotheistic, with
monotheism being regarded as their most basic belief. They have traditionally
interpreted scriptures as exclusive monotheism. However, upon a careful study
of scriptures, the conceptualization of the biblical God seems to be more
monistic or even pantheistic - no different from all the other spiritual
traditions in the world, which existed then and the major religious traditions
which exist today.
In the west, the Hebrew Bible has been the primary source describing how and
when Monotheism was introduced into the the Middle East and the West. As believed
by followers of the Abrahamic religions, it teaches that when Abraham discovered
God (Genesis 12:1-9 ; 13:14-18 ; 15 -18 ; and 22, he thus became the world's
first Monotheist. According to Jewish tradition, until then, in ancient history
all cultures believed in a variety of multiple deities such as in idolatry forces
and creatures of nature as in animism or in celestial bodies as in astrology
but did not know the one and only true God.
However, the Hebrew Bible teaches that, at Creation according to Genesis, Adam
and Eve knew God (and so did their descendants) but that over the ages, God and
his name were forgotten. This is how one of the most important Jewish sages,
Maimonides describes the process in his work the Mishneh Torah.
but
'[Abraham] planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba and there he called in the name
of God, Lord of the Universe '(Elolam) (Genesis).
Pre-biblical Middle-Eastern religions
Ancient Middle-Eastern religions may have worshipped a single god within a
pantheon and the abolition of all others, as in the case of the Aten cult in
the reign of the Egyptian pharaoh Akhenaten, under the chiefly influence of
the Eastern-originating Nefertiti. Iconoclasm during this pharaoh's rule is
considered a chief origin for the subsequent destruction by some groups of
idols, holding that no other God before the preferred deity (dually and subtly
acknowledging the existence of the other gods, but only as foes to be
destroyed for their drawing of attention away from the primary deity).
However, before the captivity of the Jews in 1060 BC., YHWH was a word that
symbolized 4 different Gods. Their names were; Y=El, H= Ashtereth, W= Baal,
H= his daughter Anath. So when it was written that Solomon worshiped Ashtereth, they
labeled him a heretic after the fact, because the first five books of the bible weren't
even written until 586-536 BC., after the Jews returned from Babylon. Essentialy meaning
that Ezekiel edited the bible and condemned Solomon for his 'sinful' practices
400 years earlier.
The Hyksos, (Hebrews) continued an inheritance of Abraham's 'One God' religious policies.
Other issues like the Divine Right of Kings may possibly also stem from
pharaonic laws on the ruler being the demigod or representative of the Creator
on Earth. The massive tombs in the Egyptian pyramids which aligned with
astronomical observations, exemplify this relationship between the pharaoh
and the heavens and was subsequently adopted by Christian royalty by claiming
a direct lease on ruling by the grace of God.
The Polytheistic religions
Polytheism is belief in, or worship of, multiple gods or divinities. The word
comes from the Greek words poly+theoi, literally "many gods." Most ancient
religions were polytheistic, holding to pantheons of traditional deities,
often accumulated over centuries of cultural interchange and experience.
The belief in many gods does not preclude the belief in an all-powerful
all-knowing supreme being.
In polytheistic belief systems, gods are conceived as complex
personages of greater or lesser status, with individual skills, needs,
desires and stories. Usually such gods are not omnipotent or omniscient;
rather, they are often portrayed as similar to humans in their personality
traits, but with additional individual powers, abilities, knowledge or
perceptions.
In a polytheistic pantheon, the gods may have multiple names, each
with its own significance in specific roles, and have dominion or authority
over specified areas of life and the cosmos. Thus a god may be the god of
music (Apollo) or herding, the god of a particular food (Dionysus, Ceres)
or emotion (Aphrodite), have a particular role in the god-hierarchy (Zeus,
Loki), or be the "patron god" of a geographical or cosmological phenomenon,
or a region, town, stream or family. In some polytheistic beliefs, such as
the Greek or Norse pantheons, gods have complex social arrangements. For
example, they have friends, allies, spouses, lovers and enemies, they
experience human emotions such as jealousy, whimsy or uncontrolled rage,
may practice infidelity or be punished, and can be born or die.
God's Names - Monotheism ?
The most important name for God we
find in the Torah is 'EL'. If you read Enoch's words on the title page, and in
the 'Key' link above, you saw it there too as ''Elohim'.
Note that plural gods appear in the earliest Hebrew texts, even though it is
translated as one God (El) in modern texts. Not all scholars
accept the plural nature of the Elohim. "Biblical Hebrew occasionally employs
something scholars call the 'majestic plural'. In effect it is a plural ending added
to a deity's name to confer status or majesty. In the Old Testament the best
example is Elohim which does not mean 'the gods' but is rather the god El with
the majestic plural im appended."
- David M. Rohl, A Test of Time: The Bible from Myth to History (1993), p. 228
"The sons of God (or children of God; 'bene elohim' and variants) are divine
members of God's heavenly host...The title 'sons/children of God' is familiar from Ugaritic
mythology, in which the gods collectively are the 'children of El'.
The sons/children of God are also found in Phoenician and Ammonite inscriptions,
referring to the pantheon of sub-ordinate deities, indicating that the term was
widespread in the West Semitic religions."
- Oxford Companion to the Bible
The word 'Jehovah' is derived from beneha-elohim.
Jehovah is a Hebrew word, beneha-elohim is a Sumerian word.
The Elohim are also called "Watchers" by Enoch and if you
read Psalm 82: you find this;
"Jehovah takes his stand
at the council of El to deliver judgement among the elohim."
'elohim is a plural noun and means the 'sons of the gods'.
Gods? "You too are gods, sons of El Elyon, all of you".
Jehovah therefore is understood to acknowledge his counterparts when he attended
the grand assembly of the deities: "God standth in the
congregation of the mighty ; he judgeth among the gods... Ye
are gods, and all of you are children of the most high."
"Other Elohim are occasionally mentioned throughout the older parts
of the Old Testament. The most important of them is Baal, usually
translated as 'the Owner'. In the Canaan of the times,
there were many Owners, one to each village, in the same way that many
Catholic cities today have their own Virgin Marys, and yet they are all
the same one."
- Julian Jaynes, The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the
Bicameral Mind
"Baal, one of the sons of El [the chief god of the Canaanites], was the
executive god of the pantheon (more than one), the god of thunder and winter storms,
the dynamic warrior god who champions the divine order against the menacing forces of
chaos. He is also identified with vegetation and the seasonal fertility cycle. There
is ample evidence that some of the aspects of Yahweh reflected aspects of Baal as the
Divine King, in the destruction of the sea-serpent Leviathan and
the concept of everlasting kingly dominion.
Another title; El-beth'-el (el beth-'el, "God of Bethel"; Baithel):
By this name Jacob called the scene of his vision at Luz, when he returned
from Paddan-aram (Gen 35:7). El is a shortened version of EL-ohim. El is a
Sumerian name for a god that controlled the Babylonian area over 5000 years
ago. The god 'EL' is seen in all the old texts. Newer versions of
the bible have changed this to simply 'God', but that makes it even more
confusing when we know El was a Babyloian and Canaanite god and
'Elohim is described in many texts as a
false god or 'gods' - more than one.

The difference between
Monotheism
and The Polytheistic religions.
Polytheism is belief in, or worship of, multiple gods or divinities. Before the captivity of the Jews in
1060 BC., YHWH was a word that symbolized 4 different Gods. Their names were; Y=El,
H= Ashtereth,
W= Baal, and H= his daughter Anath.
Even the Apostle Paul explained that the
tabernacle pointed to our physical bodies. “What? know ye not
that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you,
which ye have of Elohim (God) , and ye
are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify Elohim
(God) in your body, and in your spirit, which are Elohim’s. I Cor.
6:19-20; Jn 2:18-21.” So clearly the purpose of the tabernacle
was so that Elohim could dwell among Israel, which pointed to
his real dwelling place being within the mind of man.
If God tells Moses in the 10 Commandments, "Thou shall have no other gods
before me." He is acknowledging there ARE other gods - plural!
