Who Are
The Ebionites?
The Ebionites are the original disciples and
followers of the historical man Yeshua who
is today called Jesus. The term
Ebionite means "the
poor", and does not denote a sect
-- but rather, those who can be portrayed as
"poor"
to the ways and thinking of this world --
thereby spiritually fulfilling the
requirement to be in the world and not of
it. In the Beginning all
believers and followers of Yeshua/Jesus were
called Ebionites. Thus, the early Church
Authority Epiphanius writes that the name
Ebionite "...was at
first ...a common name for all Christians"
(quoted from Epiphanius Adv. Haer., xxix.
1). Ebionite means the
"poor ones"
-- Yeshua said:
"Blessed in spirit are the poor, for theirs
is the kingdom of heaven" (Quoted
from the
Gospel
of the Nazirenes). To fulfill the
requirement to be in the world and not of
it, one must be poor in the ways, thinking
and mindset of this world! The
Ebionites are the True Disciples of TheWay,
and the ONLY Genuine Followers of Yeshua/Jesus.
Because of the grave influence of Pagan Rome
and its dogma that was literally forced upon
the Church by the sword of the Emperor
Constantine, modern Christianity is very
much the rich in the ways and thinking of
this world that it would be easier for a
camel to pass through the eye of a needle,
than for the modern Christian to gain
entrance into the Kingdom.
By virtue of their personal contact as the
historical man Yeshua's companions and
disciple/students, the Ebionites understood
that Yeshua as a true Holy Man who became
the Anointed (Messiah/Christ) at his baptism
in the Jordan by John the Baptist -- wherein
the voice of the Father spoke to mankind and
stated of the man Yeshua:
"Thou art my Son,
this day have I begotten thee".
The Greatest Hoax And Fraud Ever Perpetuated
Upon Mankind:
To even suggest as the Church has done, that
the very disciples who walked with Yeshua
daily -- talked with him daily -- the
disciple who Yeshua personally taught about
God -- directly explaining to them both his
and their relationship to the Father --
those who Yeshua said were a witness to the
Truth and TheWay -- that these same
disciples (in the words of the later Church
leaders) were too ignorant, or too Jewish,
to understand what Yeshua taught -- must be
representative of the greatest religious
fraud and deception known to man. Modern
archeological finding have proven that the
modern Church has virtually little in common
with the original teachings of Yeshua and
TheWay. And yet, regardless of the
facts, this same fraud and deception
continues to be preached from the pulpits of
most Churches -- spiritually
disenfranchising the Christian world to this
very day!!!
the
Encyclopedia Britannica writes:
"Most
of the features of Ebionite doctrine were
anticipated in the teachings of the earlier
Qumran sect, as revealed in the Dead
Sea Scrolls. They
believed in one God and taught that Jesus
was the Messiah and was the true "prophet"
mentioned in Deuteronomy 18:15. They
rejected the Virgin Birth of Jesus, instead
holding that he was the natural son of
Joseph and Mary. The Ebionites believed
Jesus became the Messiah because he obeyed
the Jewish Law. They themselves faithfully
followed the Law, although they removed what
they regarded as interpolations in order to
uphold their teachings, which included
vegetarianism, holy poverty, ritual
ablutions, and the rejection of animal
sacrifices. The Ebionites also held
Jerusalem in great veneration. (Encyclopaedia
Britannica Online).
Why did the Ebionite Nazirene disciples and
followers of Yeshua believe in this manner?
Because this is what Yeshua personally
taught them -- and the higher spiritual
truths were directly revealed to them by the
Holy Spirit. The teaching that Yeshua was a Holy Man who
fulfilled the Royal Law within himself --
thereby attaining a Condition of At-Oneness
with the Logos/Son of God that equally
dwells within all of mankind -- and that the
historical man Yeshua thereby became the
pattern of salvation for all of mankind to
embrace in their daily lives -- has little
to nothing in common with the religion that
is being preached from Christian pulpits
today.
Contrary to what the later deception which
the Church of Rome promoted, the Gospels
emphatically state that these same disciples
were representative of a witness to the
Truth and TheWay that Yeshua taught -- and
to even suggest that they were themselves
too ignorant, or too Jewish to understand
these teachings, is representative of the
greatest religious hoax that has ever been
perpetuated upon mankind. The Book of
Acts testifies to the fact that Yeshua
further instructed the disciples through the
Holy Spirit -- i.e.,
"after giving instructions through the
Holy Spirit to the apostles he had chosen"
(Acts 1:2-3 NIV). And these same disciples
witnessed to the fact that
"God anointed Jesus
of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power,
and how he went around doing good and
healing all who were under the power of the
devil, because God was with him"
(Acts 10:38 NIV). They portrayed Yeshua as
"...a Man attested
by God to you by miracles, wonders, and
signs which God did through Him in your
midst" (Acts 2:22 NKJV). But in
the fourth century the segment of the Church
who entered into a covenant relationship
with the Pagan Emperor Constantine not only
rejected the witness of the disciples who
personally knew Yeshua, that he was a man
who was Anointed (Messiah/Christ) by God --
but they changed the very words of God
spoken to mankind -- i.e.,
"Thou art my Son,
this day have I begotten thee".
What
these original Ten Words spoken by the
Father to mankind presented, was that the
original
Ebionite
Nazirene disciples of Jesus remained
totally faithful to the Gospel teachings.
If, as the very words of God spoken to
mankind stated, that Yeshua became the
Messiah (Anointed) and Son of God by living
the necessary Consecrated Life that enabled
him to fulfill the Law within himself, then
the truth of the Gospel is found in the
witness of the
Ebionites who held firmly to the
position that Jesus
"...was justified by
fulfilling the Law. He was the Christ of
God, since not one of the rest of mankind
had observed the Law completely. Had any one
else fulfilled the commandments of the Law,
he would have been the Christ,
for they assert that our Lord Himself was a
man in like sense with all humanity" (see
Hippolytus, Refut. Omn. Haer. vii.
34). When the
Ebionite
Nazirenes
make reference to the Law, this
very much includes the Laws of Creation as
portrayed in the words
"...the designs/laws found throughout
Nature and all of Creation".
That the historical man Jesus was a pattern
for all of mankind because of his success in
overcoming the Laws, is demonstrated in the
words: "He was the
Christ of God, since not one of the rest of
mankind had observed the Law completely. Had
any one else fulfilled the commandments of
the Law, he would have been the Christ..."
And this confirms this statement with
respect to the true potential of all of
mankind that Yeshua taught, as demonstrated
in the words of early Christian authority
Hippolytus when he wrote that they (the
Ebionites) believed that when anyone
"...thus fulfill the
law, they are able to become Christs"
(Hippolytus, Refut. Omn. Haer. vii.
34 - see
http://Ebionite.com ). And this is why
Yeshua taught that he was our brother --
i.e., "Go instead
to my brothers and tell them, 'I am
returning to my Father and your Father, to
my God and your God'" (John
20:17 NIV).
The
heathen and pagan mind of the mainstream of
Gentiles always had great difficulty in
understanding the difference between the man
Jesus, the Indwelling Logos/Son of God which
is representative of the Mind of God (see
The Logos), and the One Teacher which
Jesus commanded all who would call
themselves his disciples and followers, were
to seek out and learn from (see
The True Prophet). And it was the
living of the necessary Consecrated Life
that Yeshua ordained, and the seeking of the
Kingdom within, that enabled the historical
Yeshua to become the Messiah, and At-One
with the Indwelling Logos/Son of God. And
this is especially demonstrated in the words
of Edward Gibbon with respect to the
original position of the Ebionite Nazirene
disciples of Yeshua that he was in
“...supernatural union of a man and God...
In their eyes, Jesus of Nazareth was a mere
mortal, the legitimate son of Joseph and
Mary: but he was the best and wisest of the
human race, selected as the worthy
instrument to restore upon earth the worship
of the true and supreme Deity. When he was
baptized in the Jordan, the Christ, the
first of the aeons, the Son of God himself,
descended on Jesus in the form of a dove, to
inhabit his mind, and direct his actions
during the allotted period of his ministry”
(Gibbon; The Decline & Fall of the Roman
Empire, V.4, P.366).
The
historical and spiritual factualness of
these words can be proven when one
understands the original words that were
spoken to the man Yeshua at his baptism in
the Jordan River -- when the Voice of God
stated: "Thou art
my Son, this day have I begotten thee"
-- which means that the historical man
Yeshua was a man who became the
Messiah/Christ when he overcame the Laws and
became Anointed by God. That the later
Church of Rome which existed as a puppet
under the pagan sun worshipping Emperor
Constantine, censored and changed the very
words of God spoken to mankind, is the
primary reason why the Christian world
remains shackled to the abyss of spiritual
ignorance to this very day. In the
article entitled
The Ten Words, it is demonstrated that
all the pre-Nicene Christian authors who
quoted the baptism sequence in their
Gospels, confirmed that prior to the fourth
century editing of the scriptures by Pagan
Rome, that the Gospels confirmed that Yeshua
was a holy man who became the Lord's
Anointed (Messiah/Christ) by fulfilling and
overcoming the Laws. Moreover, in
addition to the six (6) pre-Nicene Christian
authors who are cited in
The Ten Words, this fact is further
confirmed in the more ancient surviving
biblical texts that modern translators
continue to ignore to the spiritual pearl of
the Christian world today. That the
modern Church continues to reject the very
words of God spoken to mankind, in favor of
the censored and corrupted words of the
fourth century Emperor of Pagan Rome, is the
reason why the modern Church which has
caused itself to be spiritually flat-lined,
only possesses what Paul portrayed as the
"elementary"
doctrines that the Church Father Origen
defined as being
“...preached in the Churches …for the
simpleminded and for the ears of the common
crowd who are led on to live better lives by
their belief” (see Origen,
Contra Celsum).
These
10 words
demonstrate conclusively that the text of
the New Testament has been altered in order
to make it support the doctrines of the
Pagan Roman/Greek world. These
10 words
further demonstrate that the essence of the
teachings of Yeshua/Jesus has little in
common with the Christian religion today.
In fact, these 10
words are to Christianity, what the
10 Commandments
were to Judaism -- i.e., the foundation from
which every other aspect of the religion
springs forth!

The Ebionites Used The Original Scriptures
Most Important Scriptures Never Given To The
Church:
An
important truth is contained in the Epistle
of Peter to James where it is stated:
"Hear me, brethren
and fellow-servants. If we should give the
books to all indiscriminately, and they
should be corrupted by any daring men, or be
perverted by interpretations, as you have
heard that some have already done,
it
will
remain even for those
who really seek the truth, always to wander
in error. Wherefore it is better
that they should be with us, and that we
should communicate them with all the
fore-mentioned care to those who wish to
live piously, and to save others."
Those outside of the
original Ebionite/Nazirene core of disciples
and followers of Yeshua/Jesus, were quick to
corrupt all the copies of the scriptures
that were given to them. And this fact is
confirmed to us by Dr. F. H. Scrivener
where he writes that:
"In the second
century we have seen too many instances of
attempts to tamper with the text of
Scripture, some merely injudicious, others
positively dishonest".
Scrivener states that
"it is no less true
to fact than paradoxical in sound, that the
worst corruptions to which the New Testament
has ever been subjected, originated within
100 years after it was composed: and that
Irenaeus and the African Fathers, and the
whole Western, with a portion of the Syrian
Church"
used inferior
manuscripts (F.H.Scrivener, Introduction
to the Criticism of the New Testament).
Dean Burgon quotes Gaius (AD175-200) who
speaks of the source of corruptions that
survive in the early papyri:
"The Divine
Scriptures these heretics have audaciously
corrupted. Laying violent hands upon them,
under pretense of correcting them."
(Burgon, The Revision Revised, p. 323).
Eusebius (Eccleastical History), citing the
second century Church Father Clement of
Alexandria:
"The worst corruptions
to which the New Testament has ever been
subjected originated within one hundred
years after it was composed."
In
the words of Colwell (What is the Best New
Testament Text?, p.119)
"The first two
centuries witnessed the creations of the
large number of variations known to scholars
today. In the manuscripts of the New
Testament most variations, I believe, were
made deliberately."
G.D. Kilpatrick (Atticism
and the Text of the Greek New Testament, pp
125-131):
"Deliberate changes in all text types appear
to antedate A.D. 200..as distinct from
errors... all categories of deliberate
alteration... are present in both groups.
Tatian is the last author of make deliberate
changes. The vast majority of deliberate
changes were older then A.D. 200. They came
into being in the period A.D. 50-200."
It
can be easily understood why the Ebionite/Nazirene
disciples of Yeshua not only did not give
the Greek converts who edited and corrupted
the text of their scriptures, but withheld
the most spiritual and important to be
preserved in their care. Thus, Peter
writes to James:
"Knowing, my brother, your eager desire
after that which is for the advantage of us
all, I beg and beseech you not to
communicate to any one of the Gentiles the
books of my preachings which I sent to you,
nor to any one of our own tribe before
trial; but if any one has been proved and
found worthy, then to commit them to him,
after the manner in which Moses delivered
his books to the Seventy who succeeded to
his chair. Wherefore also the fruit of that
caution appears even till now. For his
countrymen keep the same rule of monarchy
and polity everywhere, being unable in any
way to think otherwise, or to be led out of
the way of the much-indicating Scriptures.
For, according to the rule delivered to
them,
they endeavor to correct the discordances of
the Scriptures, if any one, haply not
knowing the traditions, is confounded at the
various utterances of the prophets.
Wherefore they charge no one to teach,
unless he has first learned how the
Scriptures must be used. And thus they have
amongst
them one God,
one law, one hope."
(see Epistle Of Peter
And James)
The Gentiles not only
severely corrupted the copies of the
scriptures that they were given, but more
importantly what Peter states is true with
respect to their ignorance of the
"traditions"
within which the whole framework of the
scriptures are composed. And like the
Sadducees and Pharisees before them who
Yeshua/Jesus condemned for throwing away the
Key of Knowledge, they did not know the
manner in which
"...the Scriptures
must be used"
--
and this remains true even in our present
day.
Original Scriptures Written In Hebrew
Characters:
From a
New Covenant perspective, history records
the fact that the Gentiles were not even
given the more spiritual and genuine
scriptures of TheWay. When Edward Gibbon
writes: "But the
secret and authentic history has been
recorded in several copies of the Gospel
according to St. Matthew, which these
sectaries long preserved in the original
Hebrew, as the sole evidence of their faith"
-- he is speaking about the fact that the
original version of Matthew was written in
Hebrew Characters, rather than the Greek
text that our Bibles are translated from
today.
Of this Hebrew
original of Matthew, St. Jerome wrote to the
Bishops Chromatius and Heliodorus:
"A difficult work
is enjoined, since this translation has been
commanded me by your Felicities, which St.
Matthew himself, the Apostle and Evangelist,
did not wish to be openly written. For if it
had not been Secret, he would have added to
the evangel that which he gave forth was
his; but he made up this book sealed up in
the Hebrew characters, which he put forth
even in such a way that the book, written in
Hebrew letters and by the hand of himself,
might be possessed by the men most
religious, who also, in the course of time,
received it from those who preceded them.
But this very book they never gave to any
one to be transcribed, and its text they
related some one way and some another".
If
the genuine essence of the teachings of
Jesus was little more than belief in the
personage of Jesus -- and the purpose of the
scriptures was to enlighten man with regard
to the personage of Jesus so that they might
have faith and believe, which is the root
concept upon which the modern church is
founded -- then there would never have been
a reason for the disciple Matthew to author
a writing that was too secret to be placed
into the hands of either the secular Jewish
or Gentile converts. Once we truly begin
to understand what is being conveyed in a
statement such as this, then we would be
forced to re-evaluate everything that we
presently believe with regard to the very
design and purpose of New Covenant
teachings. Moreover, the whole foundational
concept of Martin Luther that everything in
the Gospel is simple and plain -- and meant
to be understood by the common believer --
is very much in error.
Additional information
regarding the original Hebrew Gospel of
Matthew is provided by Jerome in his work, O
Illustrious Men, on James the Lord's
brother:
"Further, the Hebrew itself (or original) is
preserved to this day in the library at
Caesarea which was collected with such care
by the martyr Pamphilus. I also had an
opportunity of copying it afforded me by the
Nazarenes who use the book, at Beroea, a
city of Syria".
Of the Hebrew original
of Matthew, Gibbon writes:
"the fact is attested
by a chain of fathers - Papias, Irenaeus,
Origen, Jerome, etc… But this Hebrew Gospel
of St. Matthew is most unaccountably lost;
and we may accuse the diligence or fidelity
of the primitive churches, who have
preferred the unauthorized version of some
nameless Greek".
Gibbon rightfully calls our copy of Matthew
the "unauthorized version of some
nameless Greek",
because the only true Gospel attributed to
Matthew is the original Hebrew version which
was never given to the Gentile Church, and
we no longer possess today.
In
like manner, there is sufficient evidence to
conclude that all of the original -- more
spiritual -- signatures of the gospels were
written in Hebrew. This fact is acknowledged
by Montague Rhodes James in his book, The
Apocryphal New Testament, when he wrote:
"Epiphanius
goes on to say that he had heard of Hebrew
Versions of John and Acts kept privately in
the treasuries (Geniza) at Tiberias".

Do You Know
The Original Religion Of Jesus?
The
Religion Of Roman Emperors: Do you
believe and follow the teachings of Jesus?
Or do you unknowingly filter what you think
you know of these teachings through the
dogma of Roman Emperors? And if the means
to prove the validity of your beliefs were
presented to you, what would you do? Would
you dismiss the what is presented? Or,
would you make the effort to prove the
Truth? The Apostle commands to:
“prove all things…”
(1 Thes 5:21 KJV). But would you?
In presenting
you, the reader with some background into
proving the Truth, let us first examine the
historical perspective: Sadly, the
historical facts have proven beyond any
doubt that
(1)
the modern Church has absolutely nothing in
common with the original teachings of Jesus;
(2)
the modern dogmatic Church does not at all
represent the purpose and objectives of the
original teachings;
(3)
contrary to the modern doctrinal positions,
it is easily demonstrated that the dogmatic
blank-check of salvation is easily proven to
be a fraud (see
TheLie.org ). How can I make such a
statement? Because once the facts are
known, what is practiced today is very much
The Religion Of Roman Emperors. To what
degree is this true? In a recent interview
with Christianity Today Brian McLaren made
the very informed statement that:
"One of the
problems is that the average Christian in
the average church who listens to the
average Christian broadcasting has such an
oversimplified understanding of both the
Bible and of church history - it would be
deeply disturbing for them to really learn
about church history." So
disturbing, that the vast majority of modern
Christians would literally run Jesus out of
their Churches as a heretic -- calling him
an impostor -- and not even recognize the
purpose and objectives of the original
teachings of Jesus known as TheWay.
When biblical
scholar and Dead Sea Scroll expert A. Powell
Davies attempted to warn the Christian world
that
“Biblical scholars
were not disturbed by what they found in the
Dead Sea Scrolls because they had known all
along that the origin of Christianity was
not what was commonly supposed to have been”
-- and another scholar and expert Prof. John
Allegro stated
that
the Dead Sea Scrolls provide overwhelming
evidence that
“...may upset a great many basic
teachings of the Christian Church. This in
turn would greatly upset many Christian
Theologians and believers. The heart of
the matter is, in fact, the source and
originality of Christian doctrine”
-- what the biblical scholars confirmed is
the fact that the dogmatic doctrines and
theology of the Church has virtually nothing
in common with the core teachings and
objectives of the Original Gospel Message of
the Good News! But in view of the fact
that the original followers of Jesus were
all hunted down as heretics because they
refused to accept the religion of the
emperor, it should come as no surprise that
I make the statement that modern
Christianity has virtually nothing in common
with both the pre-Nicene Church (325CE), or
the original teachings of TheWay.
While there are
sincere and dedicated Christians who strive
daily to serve the Lord. Very often they
are the most giving and kindest people you
will encounter -- often doing good for the
sake of doing good. And while doing good
for the sake of doing good is Godly, the
problem is seen in the fact that sincerity
alone cannot fulfill the objective stated by
the Apostle Paul that each Christian should
move on towards spiritual maturity. Why?
Because they have been severely hindered by
the dogmatic opium of Roman Emperors that
has undermined the Gospel Message with the
suppression of important teachings, and the
corruption of the scriptures (see
BibleCorruption.com ). But this was
foreseen by the Apostle Paul when he wrote
that there would come a day in the near
future where the Church which portrays
itself as Christian will worship the
AntiChrist in place of God (see
The Church Of The AntiChrist). With
respect to the statement of Paul, the
Adam Clark Commentary writes:
“[Except there come a
falling away first] We have the original
word apostasia in our word apostasy; and by
this term we understand a dereliction of the
essential principles of religious truth,
either a total abandonment of Christianity
itself, or such a corruption of its
doctrines as renders the whole system
completely inefficient to salvation.
Or, as stated by John
Wesley, Paul was portraying
"...that fatal period when the Emperor
Constantine called himself a Christian; From
this time onward - the Christians had no
more of the Spirit of Christ than the
heathens...." (Wesley's Works,
vol 7, Sermon 89, pp. 26-27).
From an
historical perspective, the perfect example
of the clergy of the third century is that
of Paul Of Samosata (see
Typical Orthodox Clergy), where Edward
Gibbon writes in his The Decline and Fall of
the Roman Empire that Paul
"...may serve to
illustrate the condition and character of
the times ...Paul
considered the service of the church as a
very lucrative profession ...Against those
who resisted his power, or refused to
flatter his vanity, the prelate of Antioch
was arrogant, rigid, and inexorable; but he
relaxed the discipline, and lavished the
treasures of the church on his dependent
clergy, who were permitted to imitate their
master in the gratification of every sensual
appetite. For Paul indulged himself very
freely in the pleasures of the table, and he
had received into the Episcopal palace two
young and beautiful women, as the constant
companions of his leisure moments".
Thus, Paul of Samosata who Gibbon states is
merely an example of the clergy who
portrayed themselves as Orthodox, corrupted
the teachings and the very spiritual
objectives of the Gospel -- i.e.,
"...Laymen were
told by the priests that only the priests
really knew what was necessary for salvation
and that laymen must accept the "mysteries"
on faith and on the priests' authority. This
kept the laity baffled by the nonsensical
"mysteries", confused, and dependent on the
priests for information about the
requirements for salvation."
While non-Roman
Catholics will respond to the above by
countering that they have rejected the dogma
of the priests, and they derive their
beliefs directly from the New Testament
Gospels. Yet, when the Church of
Constantine endeavored to make the teachings
of the Gospels in sync with fourth century
Roman Pagan thought and culture, to ignore
the facts with respect to the manner in
which the corrupters of the Word recreated
the message of the scriptures in order to
make it compatible to church doctrine, is to
make oneself disingenuous to the very Son of
God to whom we proclaim to be faithful to.
The truth and the facts to the matter is
very clearly expressed in the words of Prof.
Bart D. Ehrman in his book, The Orthodox
Corruption of Scripture, where he warns
us that:
"...theological disputes, specifically
disputes over Christology, prompted
Christian scribes to alter the words of
scripture in order to make them more
serviceable for the polemical task. Scribes
modified their manuscripts to make them more
patently ‘orthodox’ and less susceptible to
‘abuse’ by the opponents of orthodoxy"
--
which orthodoxy was to bring the text of the
Bible into conformity with the doctrines and
tenets of the Church of the Roman Emperor
Constantine. To close our hearts and minds
to the facts, and ignore the truth, is from
a New Covenant perspective synonymous with
relinquishing any claim whatsoever with
respect to being a follower of Jesus.
When did the
corruption of the scriptures begin? There
is strong evidence which confirms the charge
that the Gospels were corrupted as soon as
they were given into the hands of many of
the Gentile Churches.
Something which no
sincere believer today should take lightly
is the charge against Christians by Celsus,
the second century Epicurean philosopher,
who alleged that:
"Certain Christians,
like men who are overcome by the fumes of
wine and care not in the least what they
say, alter the original text of the Gospels
so that they admit of various and almost
indefinite readings. And this, I suppose,
they have done out of worldly policy, so
that when we press an argument home, they
might have the more scope for their pitiful
evasions".
Celsus concludes that because of the
wholesale rewriting and corruption of the
text of the scriptures, that this fraud has
made all of Christianity a bogus lie:
"It is clear to me
that the writings of the Christians are a
lie, and that your fables are not
well-enough constructed to conceal this
monstrous fiction: I have even heard that
some of your interpreters, as if they had
just come out of a tavern, are onto the
inconsistencies and, pen in hand, alter the
originals writings, three, four and several
more times over in order to be able to deny
the contradictions in the face of
criticism."
(R.J.Hoffmann's Celsus: On The
True Doctrine, Oxford University Press,
1987).
What teachings
were removed from the Gospels? From a
spiritual perspective, the most
important. Moreover, when that segment of
the Church which portrayed itself as
Orthodox entered into a covenant with the
Emperor Constantine, they used the most
corrupted versions of the New Testament as a
starting point, and then further corrupted
the text in order to make it support the
tenets of Pagan Rome. But herein lies the
problem: If the Gospels were corrupted --
with many of the most important spiritual
teachings edited or removed in order to make
them support the tenets of Pagan Rome --
then how can the modern Christian even begin
to know the Truth? The answer is found in
the words: “Then
many of the Jewish leaders who heard him say
these things began believing him to be the
Messiah. Jesus said to them, 'You are truly
my disciples if you live as I tell you to,
and you will know the truth, and the truth
will set you free’” (John 8:30-32
TLB). And if we augment this statement
with the text of the that translation known
as The Message, we can begin to understand
the solution to the dilemma -- i.e.,
"If you stick with
this, living out what I tell you, you are my
disciples for sure. Then you will
experience for yourselves the truth, and the
truth will free you." The key
message is in the words that the seeker must
"live out what
[Jesus taught] ...then you will experience
for yourselves the truth". And
in this respect, the Law is that you can
never possess any greater Truth than you are
willing to live and manifest in your daily
life. So while it is true that the Gospel
was corrupted in order to make it support
the dogma of the Emperor Constantine and
Pagan Rome, it is also true that with the
restoral of the suppressed teachings and a
desire on the part of Christians to
"live out what
[Jesus taught] , there is the
promise of the Gospel that
"...you will
experience for yourselves the truth".
With the corrupting of the biblical texts
and the hunting down of the Spiritual
Christians as heretics because they refused
to adhere to the dogma of Pagan Rome, the 4th
century Church of Constantine put to death
the Spirit of the Church (see
The Corruption Of The Church). Yet,
it's Spiritual Castration which totally
alienated all generations of future
Christian believers from comprehending even
what was left of a corrupted and spiritually
sanitized New Testament (see
Bible Corruption), was implemented in
the 6th century. As an example
of how the Christian world was literally
forced to adhere to the dogma of the
emperors, when the doctrine of the
pre-existent soul was outlawed by the
Emperor Justinian, the Britannica confirms
that the emperor then forced his will upon
the Church when he
"...banished the pope to
Egypt
, and afterwards to an island, until he
accepted the Council, which he ultimately
did" (see
http://Ebionite.com/reincarnation.htm
). After relenting to the will of the
emperor, and finely accepting the decree of
the emperor after seven months of
imprisonment, it is reported that the pope
met with an untimely death before he could
even return to the Vatican. |

The Great Lie!!!
Published By The Synagogue of Satan
To Deceive and Seduce The Church Elect!
The
Ebionites were unjustly condemned as
heretics because it was said that they
were Torah Observant. Yet, they
rejected all animal sacrifice, were
strict vegetarians, and they rejected
the literal interpretation of the Law of
Moses. Quoting Epiphanius: The
Ebionites
"do not accept Moses' Pentateuch in its
entirety; certain sayings they reject...
stating Christ has revealed this to me,
and will blaspheme most of the
legislation"
(Panarion 30.18.7-9). If the
early Church author is correct, and the
Ebionites blasphemed the majority of the
legislation of the literal Torah, then
how could they be portrayed as Torah
Observant? Unless, of course, they
observed the Spiritual Meaning of the
Torah -- as taught by Yeshua when he
stated that:
"Do not think that I came to abolish the
Law or the Prophets; I did not come to
abolish but to fulfill. For truly I say
to you, until heaven and earth pass
away, not the smallest letter or stroke
shall pass from the Law until all is
accomplished. Whoever then annuls one of
the least of these commandments, and
teaches others to do the same, shall be
called least in the kingdom of heaven;
but whoever keeps and teaches them, he
shall be called great in the kingdom of
heaven.…" (Matt 5:17-19).
Epiphanius then quotes the Gospel of the
Ebionites/Hebrews where Yeshua states:
"I have come to
destroy the sacrifices"
(ibid. 30.16.5). They were
Observant of the Law -- but this was the
Royal Law that is Spiritual. In
reference to the Ebionites, Epiphanius
states:
"They
are Jews. They use Gospels. Eating meat
is abominable to them. They consider
water to have sacred properties... they
often baptize themselves in water,
summer and winter, for
sanctification..." (Panarion,
19:28-30). So to say that the Ebionites
are Torah Observant in the manner of the
Pharisees, in view of the recorded fact
that they
"...blespheme most of the legislation
...They use Gospels. Eating meat is
abominable to them"
-- is a lie that was promoted by the
Gentile Church that was too heathen in
their mindset to comprehend the
spiritual nature of the teachings of
Yeshua and TheWay -- and the Gentile
Church condemned the Ebionites in order
to adopt pagan teachings, rituals and
religious observances which were common
to Pagan Rome. |

There Are No Modern Christians
To be a sincere
and valid Christian, one must be properly
baptized -- which is not at all the case
with the modern Christian. The
following is an abstract take from the
article on the Original Meaning of the
Sacraments (see
Sacraments) that have been undermined
and replaced by modern worthless rituals.
When Paul wrote
and warned that whoever eats the bread or
drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy
manner will be guilty concerning the body
and blood of the Lord -- i.e.,
"Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks
this cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner
will be guilty of the body and blood of the
Lord.
Let a person examine himself, then, and so
eat of the bread and drink of the cup. For
anyone who eats and drinks without
discerning the body eats and drinks judgment
on himself" (1 Cor 11:27-29) --
the question should be posed as to what
constitutes a lack of discernment? While a
more exacting translation of the above is
found in many of the older versions which
state: "eateth and
drinketh damnation to himself",
few Christians who have been taught the
modern man-made doctrines of the Church, are
able to understand how a baptized and
confirmed Christian can eat and drink
damnation and
judgment for their failure
to properly discern the Lord's body. In the
same way that Paul warned the Jews that no
rituals of the Law of Moses can bestow upon
them Salvation and Life, neither would empty
rhetoric that is not supported by a
transformative Godly mindset and life.
Thus, the Gospel message is Universal across
the spectrum of all religions:
"This people draws
near to me with their mouth, and honors me
with their lips; but their heart is far from
me. But in vain do they worship me,
Teaching as their doctrines the precepts of
men" (Matt 15:8-9). And if it is
true that God is a discerner of the hearts
and minds of men -- knowing whether they
desire to live in the Light of Truth, or the
doctrines and dogma of men -- then the
purity and validity of what we believe and
the spiritual code we live by, would be very
important to the modern believer.
In the parable
of TheCall to the Wedding Feast (Matt
22:1-14), the Kingdom is compared to a king
who celebrates the marriage of his son.
And when he sends forth his servants to
notify the invited guests that the banquette
table is prepared and ready,
"But they paid no
attention and went off — one to his field,
another to his business..." (Matt
22:5). And because they did not come --
and his servants were persecuted and even
killed -- "The king
was enraged. He sent his army and destroyed
those murderers and burned their city...".
And because those invited did not come, the
king said to his servants:
"Go to the street
corners and invite to the banquet anyone you
find.' So the servants went out into the
streets and gathered all the people they
could find, both good and bad, and the
wedding hall was filled with guests".
But then it is stated:
"But when the king came in to see the
guests, he noticed a man there who was not
wearing wedding clothes. 'Friend,' he asked,
'how did you get in here without wedding
clothes?' The man was speechless. Then the
king told the attendants, 'Tie him hand and
foot, and throw him outside, into the
darkness, where there will be weeping and
gnashing of teeth.' For many are invited,
but few are chosen."
Thus, the
question that must be asked in light of the
Biblical experts who have raised the
question as to
"...the source and originality of Christian
doctrine”, is what
exactly constitutes the required
"wedding garment"? Which
also raises the question: While it is true
that Paul rejected the ritual observance of
the Jews, what was the requirements that
Paul did set forth for the congregation of
believers? To the faith-based Christians
Paul stated:
"Put to death,
therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly
nature..." (Col 3:5 NIV) --
stating that "Those
who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified
the sinful nature with its passions and
desires" (Gal 5:24 NIV).
Therefore it can be concluded that from
Paul's perspective, living in accord with
the Gospel teachings requires repentance and
change -- and thus, the reality of the words
of Isaiah have enveloped the modern
faith-based believers:
"For they that lead this people cause
them to err; and they that are led of them
are destroyed" (Isa 9:6). And
when rightly understood, the resounding
truth is that the modern believers have
chosen tradition and dogma over the
Knowledge of the Original Teachings
associated with the New Covenant -- i.e.,
"My people are
destroyed for lack of knowledge: because
thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also
reject thee..." (Hos 4:6).
While the
purpose -- the teachings -- as well as the
religious/spiritual objectives of the
original New Covenant Sacraments may trouble
the modern believer, it can also be
demonstrated that the believer is not held
accountable for the sin of ignorance -- and
that there is Grace and Forgiveness for
those who are truly faithful to the Lord.
Thus, the question is raised:
“But why do you
call Me 'Lord, Lord,' and do not do the
things which I say?” (Luke 6:46
NKJ). And, while many Christians today may
that the very words of the Gospel do not
apply to them:
“Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,'
will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only
he who does the will of my Father who is in
heaven” (Matt 7:21 NIV).
What is the will
of our Heavenly Father? How are we to know
the Truth? After all, if we have been
deceived by the doctrines of men, then what
are we supposed to do? A reality that is
not understood by the modern faith-based
believer is the fact that the truly faithful
Christian has the innate ability to Prove
the Truth -- as stated in the words of
Jesus: “If any of
you really determines to do God’s will, then
you will certainly know whether my teaching
is from God or is merely my own”
(John 7:17 TLB)
How will the
believer know the Truth? And that these
teachings are from God?
In
the Bible translation known as The Message,
the above reality of Jesus' words are
answered. In this translation when Jesus
turned to the Jews who had claimed to
believe in him and said: "If
you stick with this, living out what I tell
you, you are my disciples for sure. Then you
will experience for yourselves the truth,
and the truth will free you" (John
8:31-32 TheMessage) -- which confirms the
original Gospel teachings set forth in the
parable of the Sower And the Seed, that only
those who live the Truth in word, thought,
desire and deed, can know the Truth. And
it is important to recognzie that Jesus
didn't say that they would believe the truth
-- or that they would discern what they
believed would be dogmatic truth out of the
scriptures or some book written by other men
-- but rather, Jesus conveyed to them that
if they follow in TheWay, that they "...will
experience for yourselves the truth, ...and
it is this SELF-EXPERIENCED TRUTH
that...will free you" from the
error and ignorance that consumes the people
of this world.
The Gospel
teachings of the New Covenant known as
TheWay, has specific Sacraments -- and the
spiritual significance of these sacraments
are not at all understood today. In the
parable of TheCall to the Wedding Feast,
what is portrayed as the required
"wedding garment" in
the parable is in fact the sacrament of
baptism. But the original teachings on
baptism is very different than what is
practiced today. In the Homilies of
Clement, the Apostle Peter is quoted as
stating: "He has
commanded us to go forth to preach, and to
invite you to the supper of the heavenly
King, which the Father hath prepared for the
marriage of His Son, and that we should give
you wedding garments, that is, the grace of
baptism; which whosoever obtains, as a
spotless robe with which he is to enter to
the supper of the King, ought to beware that
it be not in any part of it stained with
sin, and so he be rejected as unworthy and
reprobate." Contrary to the
modern usage of the sacrament of baptism,
according to Peter, once the "wedding
garment" is received, if the
person then willfully sins, then the wedding
garment is stained, and there can be no
further repentance -- i.e., you "...ought
to beware that it be not in any part of it
stained with sin, and so he be rejected as
unworthy and reprobate."
The most popular
and accepted scripture over the first three
centuries was the Shepherd of Hermas (see
Shepherd), which states that once one
receives the sacrament of baptism which is
the "wedding
garment", there is only one
opportunity for repentance from any future
sins -- i.e., "For
he that hath received remission of sins
ought no longer to sin, but to dwell in
purity. ...But I say unto you', saith he,
`if after this great and holy calling any
one, being tempted of the devil, shall
commit sin, he hath only one (opportunity
of) repentance." While this
original teaching will be rejected by the
modern dogmatic Church who uses the
Jesus-god of Constantine as an exemption
from being required to live in accord with
the Commandments and the Original Gospel
Teachings, this statement in the Shepherd of
Hermas is in fact confirmed by Paul in the
warning: "For it is
impossible to restore again to repentance
those who ...then commit apostasy, since
they crucify the Son of God on their own
account and hold him up to contempt.. For if
we sin deliberately after receiving the
knowledge of the truth, there no longer
remains a sacrifice for sins, but a fearful
prospect of judgment, and a fury of fire
which will consume the adversaries." (Heb
6:4-6;10:26-27 RSV). And what this means
is that the religion of Jesus in its
original form was one of spiritual
transformation -- and those who willfully
sin after coming to the knowledge of Christ
-- being initially clothed in the "wedding
garment" of Spiritual Baptism --
crucify the Son of God afresh when they then
willfully sin -- and in the warning of
Paul, "...there no
longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a
fearful prospect of judgment, and a fury of
fire which will consume the adversaries." This
is why Paul stated with respect to those who
call themselves Christian, and continue to
live a sinful life: "But
if, while we seek to be justified by Christ,
we ourselves also are found sinners, is
therefore Christ the minister of sin? God
forbid. For if I build again the things
which I destroyed, I make myself a
transgressor" (Gal 2:17-18 KJV).
Which confirms the alternate ending of the
Gospel of Mark which reads: "This
Age of lawlessness and unbelieving lies
under the sway of Satan, who will not allow
what lies under the unclean spirits to
understand the truth and power of God;
therefore, they said to Christ, reveal your
righteousness now. Christ answered them, The
term of years for Satan's power has now
expired, but other terrors are at hand. I
was delivered to death on behalf of
sinners, that they might return to the truth
and sin no more, that they might inherit
that glory of righteousness which is
spiritual and imperishable in heaven" (Moffatt,
quoting Gospel Of Mark in Codex W - Also
quoted by St. Jerome as being the authentic
ending of the Gospel of Mark). Thus,
Jesus warned those who would call upon the
Lord and expect to have earned salvation: “But
why do you call Me 'Lord, Lord,' and do not
do the things which I say?” (Luke
6:46 NKJ). And, “Not
everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will
enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who
does the will of my Father who is in heaven” (Matt
7:21 NIV). That the very people who with
their lips proclaim themselves to believe,
continue to lie "...under
the sway of Satan" -- or, in the
words of John: "Little
children, let no one deceive you. He who
practices righteousness is righteous, just
as He is righteous. He who sins is of the
devil, for the devil has sinned from the
beginning" (1 John 3:7-8 NKJV).
The sincere
Christian will of course pose the question:
Is the above teaching on baptism valid and
correct? Is the Christian held accountable
for their willful sins after baptism? On
this very subject the Apostle Peter makes
the profound statement:
"If they have
escaped the corruption of the world by
knowing our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and
are again entangled in it and overcome,
they are
worse off at the end than they were at the
beginning. It
would have been better for them not to have
known the way of righteousness, than to have
known it and then to turn their backs on the
sacred command that was passed on to them.
Of them the proverbs are true: A dog returns
to its vomit, and, A sow that is washed goes
back to her wallowing in the mud"
(2 Pet 2:20-22 NIV). Where the modern
Church promotes the doctrine that they are
saved by Grace regardless of the manner in
which they live their lives, Peter not only
states that this doctrine is in grave error,
but correctly states that:
"It would have been better for them not to
have known the way of righteousness, than to
have known it and then to turn their backs
on the sacred command that was passed on to
them." Every Christian should
ask themselves:
How can those who have never known the
teachings of Christ, be better off than
those who having heard and been baptized
into TheWay, and are complacent towards
those teachings? It would appear that
Peter is stating that those who had never
heard the Gospel message -- and had
themselves committed much sin -- will in the
hereafter inherit a more lofty place in the
Kingdom than the complacent believers.
Christians
promote the doctrine that only those who
believe can be saved -- and here Peter is
stating that the opposite is true -- and
that those people who claim to believe, and
fall back to their old ways where they
embrace the culture and ways of this world,
will in fact be worse off after they have
come to believe, than before they began to
believe. Moreover, the shepherds and blind
guides that Peter is making reference to,
are those who preach the modern doctrine of
using the Gospel as a license to dwell in
perpetual sin that is promoted in churches
today -- i.e.,
"This is especially true of those who follow
the corrupt desire of the sinful nature..."
(2 Peter 2:10 NIV). Because these false
shepherds even if they are sincere, fail to
understand the reality of what Jesus meant
when he used the terms Whole, and Complete,
they preach the
"...promise [of] freedom [in their doctrine
of salvation by faith and grace alone],
while they themselves are slaves of
depravity" In what can only be
in total opposition to what Christians today
believe, Peter states that it would have
been better for the entry-level believers to
have never heard of the Gospel, than to have
heard, and then fall prey to the false
shepherds who promise them freedom, but
blindly lead the believers into the
proverbial ditch. And thus, there is simply
no means for the modern Christian who
believes the doctrines of the Church, to
even begin to understand what Peter is
making reference to.
Baptism As A
Divine Marriage: True Spiritual
Baptism is a Divinely Consecrated
Union/Marriage with the Indwelling Logos/Son
of God. And this is especially seen in the
Homilies of Clement where Peter conveys to
the believer that it is a sin to seek out
any other teacher than the True Prophet --
as seen in the words:
"But the ways in which this garment may
be spotted are these: If any one withdraw
from God the Father and Creator of all,
receiving another teacher besides Christ,
who alone is the faithful and True Prophet,
and who has sent us twelve apostles to
preach the word; if any one think otherwise
than worthily of the substance of the
Godhead, which excels all things; — these
are the things which even fatally pollute
the garment of baptism. But the things which
pollute it in actions are these: murders,
adulteries, hatreds, avarice, evil
ambition..." And in the same way
that the True Prophet can only be approached
through the wearing of an unspotted
"wedding garment"
-- and the True Prophet must be sought with
a pure heart and the living of a Consecrated
Life in TheWay -- as stated in the Second
Commandment of the Didache:
"And the second
commandment of the Teaching; You shall not
commit murder, you shall not commit
adultery, you shall not commit pederasty,
you shall not commit fornication, you shall
not steal, you shall not practice magic, you
shall not practice witchcraft, you shall not
murder a child by abortion nor kill that
which is born. You shall not covet the
things of your neighbor, you shall not
swear, you shall not bear false witness, you
shall not speak evil, you shall bear no
grudge. You shall not be double-minded nor
double-tongued, for to be double-tongued is
a snare of death. Your speech shall not be
false, nor empty, but fulfilled by deed. You
shall not be covetous, nor rapacious, nor a
hypocrite, nor evil disposed, nor haughty.
You shall not take evil counsel against your
neighbor. You shall not hate any man; but
some you shall reprove, and concerning some
you shall pray, and some you shall love more
than your own life."
When Prof. John
Allegro wrote that the findings of the Dead
Sea Scrolls “...may
upset a great many basic teachings of the
Christian Church. This in turn would greatly
upset many Christian Theologians and
believers. The heart of the matter is, in
fact, the source and originality of
Christian doctrine” -- as
demonstrated in the above, the modern Church
has absolutely nothing in common with the
original teachings of TheWay -- and the
doctrines of the Church have so
disenfranchised the community of believers,
that it can be factually stated that there
are no Christians today. Further, because of
their spiritual adultery -- learning about
Christ from counterfeit teachers, priests
and prophets -- which has enslaved them in a
self-imposed Diaspora.
When Jesus condemned going to the teachers
of this world -- and stated to his disciples
that there was only One Teacher -- this
Inner Teacher was called the True Prophet
(see
True Prophet) by his Ebionite Nazirene
Disciples. Thus, this reality is especially
demonstrated in the Recognitions of Clement,
where St. Clement quotes the teachings of
the Apostle Peter. In chapter 59, under the
heading of The True Prophet, Clement quotes
Peter and writes:
“But I would not have you think, that in
saying this I take away the power of judging
concerning things; but I give counsel that
no one walk through devious places, and rush
into errors without end. And therefore I
advise not only wise men, but indeed all men
who have a desire of knowing what is
advantageous to them, that they seek after
the true Prophet; for it is He alone who
knoweth all things, and who knoweth what and
how every man is seeking.
For He is within the
mind of every one of us, but in those who
have no desire of the knowledge of God and
His righteousness, He is inoperative; but He
works in those who seek after that which is
profitable to their souls, and kindles in
them the light of knowledge.
Wherefore seek Him first of all; and if you
do not find Him, expect not that you shall
learn anything from any other. But He is
soon found by those who diligently seek Him
through love of the truth, and whose souls
are not taken possession of by wickedness.
For He is present with those who desire Him
in the innocence of their spirits, who bear
patiently, and draw sighs from the bottom of
their hearts through love of the truth; but
He deserts malevolent minds, because as a
prophet He knows the thoughts of every one.
And therefore let no one think that he can
find Him by his own wisdom, unless, as we
have said, he empty his mind of all
wickedness, and conceive a pure and faithful
desire to know Him.
For when any one has
so prepared himself, He Himself as a
prophet, seeing a mind prepared for Him, of
His own accord offers Himself to his
knowledge”.
What does Peter
say to us in these words? That the True
Prophet “is within
the mind of every one of us”.
This concept is Spiritual -- and is the
foundation of the Living Church that the
Lord inaugurated. But unless you live the
Consecrated Life as a Disciple of TheWay --
and seek the Divine Manna of the Inner
Kingdom -- you cannot be taught by the True
Prophet, and receive the Gnosis or Divine
Manna/Knowledge of the Kingdom. And in the
same writing these rather profound words are
stated that would be totally rejected by the
teachers, philosophers and scholars of this
world, is the warning:
“Hence, O beloved
Clement", proclaims Peter,
“if you would know
the things pertaining to God, you have to
learn them from Him alone, because He alone
knows the truth. For if any one else knows
anything, he has received it from Him or
from His disciples”. And even
more profound is the warning that it is
impossible for carnal man in his organic
state of mind, to perceive and understand
the true meaning of the scriptures -- i.e.,
in the words of Peter:
"...therefore great care is to be taken,
that when the law of God is read, it be not
read according to the understanding of our
own mind. For there are many sayings in the
divine Scriptures which can be drawn to that
sense which every one has preconceived for
himself; and this ought not to be done. For
you ought not to seek a foreign and
extraneous sense, which you have brought
from without". Which means that
those who proclaim they know Jesus, have all
been greatly deceived -- and all the
knowledge that people think they have, is
pseudo-knowledge from the perspective of
True Gnosis/Divine Manna of the Kingdom. And
since the vast majority of people reject the
necessary life and mindset that enables them
to be taught directly by the True Prophet,
they dwell in this world under the illusion
of knowledge. In order to learn from the
True Prophet, you must become the
"good ground"
in the parable of the Sower and the Seed
(see
Sower And The Seed ) -- transform your
body and mind into the
Final Temple -- and you must live and
manifest the Truth that you have received in
word, thought, desire and deed. And it was
for this reason that Jesus said that only
the very few will enter into Life (
http://GateOfEden.com ).
From the perspective of the sin that defiles
the necessary wedding garment -- which sin
causes the person to be cast out into the
"outer darkness"
of mind and being -- is the Spiritual
Adultery of seeking teachers in this world
-- instead of living the necessary
Consecrated Life in TheWay that enables the
seeker to enter into and sustain a Spiritual
Marriage with the Son of God that dwells at
the core essence of our being.

South Africa Community Of Ebionite Nazirenes
South Africa
has one of the few Spiritual Community of
followers of Yeshua/Jesus in the earth today
-- one of the few, because they have been
Spiritually Baptized in accord with the
Original Requirements of baptism in the Name
and Reality of the True Prophet (aka The
Logos and Son of God). Where the
Churches that portray themselves as
Christian today, baptise in the name of the
Jesus-god of Pagan Rome, the Community at
South Africa were baptized by the soul who
lived as Jacob who they call James, the
Brother of Yeshua who they call Jesus, and
is the acknowledged Leader of the New
Covenant Church that all genuine seekers and
disciples of TheWay are commanded to seek
out (see
Brother
Of Yeshua). In this life the
soul of the Brother of Yeshua is known as
Allan Cronshaw (see
Who Is Allan
Cronshaw?), and he made a trip to South
Africa to baptize and guide the Spiritual
Community of Ebionite Nazirenes in TheWay.
In the top

Yeshua/Jesus and his True Disciples of
TheWay. In the bottom two photos

The South African
Congregation of Ebionite Nazirenes are
living the required Consecrated Life in
TheWay (see

with the Original Teachings of Yeshua/Jesus.

Important
Removed And Suppressed Teaching
The
Pre-existent Soul
The Gospels
are based upon the Law of God that Paul
portrayed in the words:
“Do not be
deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps
what he sows” (Gal 6:7 NIV).
Which means that your own past actions have
orchestrated the life you are presently
living. And while this may
appear strange to the modern Christian, it
is easily proven to be a suppressed truth
that was forcefully removed from Gospel
teachings. And this fact is
easily proven beyond any doubt whatsoever,
on the website
http://ChristianReincarnation.org .
The Truth
Cannot Be Suppressed: Recall of the
previous lives that the soul (see
http://SoulSelf.org ) of a person has
lived, comes to a seeker of Truth in the
manner that leaves and fruit grows on a
healthy tree. As the soul who
lived as the Brother of Yeshua/Jesus, Allan
Cronshaw (see Who Is Allan Cronshaw)
returned to this world countless times as a
shepherd and guide to the seekers of TheWay.
One of his spiritual abilities has been to
be able to open the door for sincere seekers
to not only see the previous lives their
soul has lived, but also to bring the seeker
up into the presence of their higher soul
and true-self, who is a Being of Light (see
http://BeingOfLight.com ).
And when Allan recently visited with the
Ebionite Nazirene Spiritual Congregation in
South Africa, he was able to help the
seekers to explore some of the previous
lives their soul-self has lived -- which has
been presented in the below. In the
same way that in the Gospel account of
Yeshua we can observe where he opened their
minds to the inner spiritual meaning of the
scriptures that natural organic man is
inherently blind to -- i.e.,
"Then opened He
their understanding, that they might
understand the scriptures" (Luke
24:45) -- Allan Cronshaw opened the
minds of some of the members of the South
African Congregation of Ebionites to
remember when they knew the historical man
Yeshua, and how the Church of Constantine
hunted down the Spiritual Christians who
refused to accept the religion of the
emperor, as heretics -- putting to death and
silencing all those who embraced the
original teachings of Yeshua and TheWay.

Lempetje's
Life As A
Fourth Century Ebionite
I
recalled myself walking along,
and after being physically and
violently persuaded by some
soldiers who did not approve of
me in not agreeing with them on
their gross injustices and
oppression of the law abiding
people, I was given a safe
escape passage by a group of
people (Ebionites).
Standing on both sides of the
river they allowed me to safely
move upstream so that I should
not be killed. The river
led me to another group which
were also very kind to me in
providing for my needs (food and
rest). After being
refreshed I was shown another
road to follow through the
bushes. I followed that
thick and strenuous bush road
until I saw a stream which led
me to another group of people
who were busy working on the
land; women were also busy with
other chores. This place
is were I saw Allan Cronshaw who
I knew in that life as Matthew,
and he was a leader of the
Ebionite community.
He was sitting on a chair in the
middle of a stream of crystal
clear water welcoming me saying
“Welcome brother, you have
arrived!”. As I
walked through the water, the
person I know today as Florence
(Flo) Cronshaw was calling other
members saying “Come and
welcome our brother!”
All were happy to see me as I
walked out of the water. I
walked past these welcoming and
happy people to where I was
directed. I saw a small
building which looked like a
church and I passed through it.
There was a scary dark tunnel
which I was to pass through in
order to get to the other side
of the mountain. I
hesitated to enter at first, but
I eventually entered. I
bravely walked passed the
soldiers who were in there
searching the place. As I walked
past them, it was as if they
were blinded. After
walking through that dark
tunnel, I again saw Allan; and
this time he welcomed me saying
“You have made it, welcome!”
The above life of Ernest
coincides with the life
portrayed by Allan Cronshaw as a
fourth century Ebionite Elder in
the article
The Death Of The Religion Of
Jesus. |

Tsiu Adam Mathibeli
Three Lives -
One In The First Century
I
was able to recall a life when I
was a 12 years old American
Indian, rowing a boat towards my
home in a river. The river
was flowing in the direction in
which I was rowing. I kept
the boat on the left side of the
river, so that I should not be
swept downstream towards a deep
waterfall. Several people
in our community died on
previous occasions when they
were swept downstream to the
waterfall. I was sent by
my parents to do some errands,
and I got back home safely.
Our homes were tepees, and our
community was not particularly
large. I wore clothing
made out of animal skins. My
name was or rather sounded like
“Rauuwl”...
In another life I was in a plane
sitting next to a pilot in the
cockpit. The plane had two
engines and two propeller, each
mounted on the two front wings.
Most people addressed me as a
captain and I was of Caucasian
origin, about 53 years of age,
married and had three children.
The children remained with their
mother back home. We were
transporting injured passengers
to a destination over a body of
water, it is not clear whether
it was a sea or a lake.
The plane developed engine
problems (it might have been
shot down) and it dived down
towards that body of water.
There were screams in the plane
as it dived down and ultimately
splashed with a loud thud /
crash in the water. The
next moment, I was out of my
dead body, weightless. In
this state, I noticed that my
dead body had sustained severe
injuries on the right side of
the face. There was now
silence in the plane, with dead
bodies floating about.
The third life I recalled was
the most meaningful.
I was a found myself as one of a
group of people who had
assembled in a building, built
out of mud bricks.
It had openings on the wall
serving as windows and doors but
had no frames. Most
were adults sitting on the
floor, listening attentively to
the speaker, who was the person
we know today as Yeshua/Jesus.
He was addressing us on the
Commandments and the Laws.
We wore dress-like white linen
apparel, others had clothing of
color on top of the white linen.
The fourth and final life I
recalled was when I found myself
in an Ebionite life. In this
life Yeshua/Jesus had passed on.
I was addressing a large group
of people about the commandments
in a building that was painted
white inside. I
commanded Ebionites to help hide
the scrolls, amongst other
issues: soldiers were destroying
the scrolls. Soldiers killed
people for not obeying their
instructions, one of the reasons
was the scrolls. Most
soldiers wore short skirts, with
tunics of hardened material on
top; including their chests and
helmets for their heads. Some
soldiers rode horses, but most
were on foot. Weapons were
spears, axes, other war
implements, bows, arrows and
shields. It was a period
of great distress for the
Ebionites...
Other life times are remembered,
but are not included on this
report –My session of recall was
on the 15th November 2014, came
to an end after receiving
knowledge/ instructions
intuitively, on methods of
communication viz. Prayer and
Meditation ‘through the door of
the heart’.

The Brother Of Yeshua/Jesus:
2000 years ago I lived as
Jacob who many call James, and I
was known as the Brother of
Yeshua and the first leader of
the New Covenant movement of
TheWay which is today known as
Christianity. I was sent back
into the world to restore the
teachings of my brother Yeshua
to their original spiritual
essence, and to guide you in
TheWay that is "narrow"
so you will be able to open the
"strait gate" within you
and enter the Kingdom that
Yeshua declared must be attained
through the second birth. |

The Ebionite HomePage:
If you call yourself a
Christian, Jew, Messianic
believer, Evyonim, Nazarene or
Muslim, then it is imperative
that you learn of the Ebionites
who are True Spiritual Israel --
They are the Poor Ones to
the ways and thinking of this
world -- The Ebionites were the
Israelites of the Nazirene Vow
They are/were the Genuine
Disciples of Yeshua/Jesus who
are in the world and not of it! |

The Nazirene HomePage:
The original spiritual teachings
of Yeshua/Jesus as practiced by
the people of The Way who where
known historically as the
Essenes, Ebionites, and
Nazirenes. The teachings of The
Way are Spiritual -- and provide
a means to open the "strait
gate" into the Kingdom while
still physically alive in the
body/vessel. |

Original Gospel Sacraments: The Sacraments that are practiced and observed in the Christian Churches today have very little in common with the Original Sacraments instituted by Jesus. Without putting on the required Wedding Garment, and being nourished by the Eucharist of the Divine Manna that can only be imparted to the seeker/disciple by and in the direct Spiritual Presence of the Son of God while in the Kingdom, the believer will continue to dwell in what Jesus portrayed as the Far Country and Outer Darkness of Mind and Being -- unable to comprehend the Higher Mysteries of the Kingdom -- and unable to attain the subsequent stage of Birth that enables the seeker/disciple to gain entrance into the Kingdom, and inherit the Promise of Entering into Life. |

Know Thyself: Jesus declared in the Gospel of Thomas: "...But if you will not know yourselves, you dwell in poverty and it is you who are that poverty". It is for this reason that the second-century Church Father Clement of Alexandria said that it is “…the greatest of all lessons to know one's self. For if one knows himself, he will know God; and knowing God, he will be made like God… and that man becomes God, since God so wills”. When God, in the words of St. Nazianzen, no longer is an “object of wonder”, but rather an “object of desire” -- and we, desiring to be purified from the defilements of this world, make ourselves fit vessels for the Lord to indwell, the Spirit, according to St. Nazianzen, reveals to us our true nature, and the revelation of this manifest Sacred Knowledge makes “us like God; so that when we have thus become like Himself, God may, to use a bold expression, hold converse with us as Gods, being united to us, and that perhaps to the same extent as He already knows those who are known to Him”. St. Nazianzen then writes that “the Divine Nature then is boundless and hard to understand” by those who are yet carnal and think as natural beings of this world. |

An Inconvenient Truth:
One of the most important
articles that have been written
and exist in our present time --
in spite of those who attempt to
censor and inhibit the modern
seeker from having access to the
Truth and TheWay. Written by
an Original Author of the
Gospels, this article reveals
what modern authorities will at
any cost, censor and suppress.
Why? Because as counterfeit
shepherds, they are carnal and
totally earth-bound in their
thinking. Being carnal and
spiritually disenfranchised,
they don't at all understand --
or possess the knowledge of --
the Great Spiritual Truths
revealed in this article. |

Reincarnation, The Key To
Christianity: The only
eyewitness account written by an
Elder in the original Ebionite
Community portraying the Death
of Christianity -- The Religion
of Jesus and the Original
Teachings of TheWay. Because
the Emperor of Rome hunted down
and murdered the Original
Spiritual Christians and all
those who opposed the corruption
of the teachings of Jesus and
TheWay, the Christian world
itself has been cast into a
Spiritual Diaspora from which it
has yet to emerge.

The Church Of The AntiChrist:
The Apostle Paul predicted that
the Church which portrays itself
as Christian, will install the
Anti-Christ as the leader of the
Church, and the Christian world
will worship Satan in place of
God. While the Christian world
dwells under the deceptive
belief that they freed
themselves from the paganism of
Rome in the Reformation, the
leaders of the Reformation did
not at all understand the
reality of a purely Spiritual
Religion where the objective was
to be be in the world and not of
it -- using the scriptures as
the Key of Knowledge to gain
entrance into the Kingdom while
still in the body-vessel -- in
many respects the reactionary
dogma contrived by Martin Luther
and the other leaders of the
Reformation had the effect of
further imprisoning the Church
in the abyss of abject carnal
ignorance. |
|
|
|
 |
The Bible itself
openly rejects and condemns the
tenets of belief promoted by the
Church. What is demonstrated
is the fact that the vast
majority of Christians neither
understand the Bible -- and
those who do read it, do so
through the filter of their
dogma and beliefs. re are 10
words that
were altered from their original
context in the New Testament
that have the power to
re-establish the essence of the
teachings of Yeshua which was
known as TheWay. These 10
words demonstrate
conclusively that the text of
the New Testament has been
altered and corrupted in order
to make it support the doctrines
of the Pagan Roman/Greek
world. These 10
words further
demonstrate that the essence of
the teachings of Yeshua has
little in common with the
Christian religion today. In
fact, these 10
wordsare to Christianity
what the 10
Commandments were
to Judaism -- i.e., the
foundation from which every
other aspect of the religion
springs forth! These 10
words prove
the Ebionites correct, and
modern Christianity which is
founded upon 4th century Roman
doctrines to be in error. These 10
words prove
that without a return to the
essence of Yeshua's original
teachings, modern Christians
are neither saved, nor do they
have the salvation they
erroneously believe they do. |

The Consecrated Life is
the Path that leads to Wholeness
-- and this Wholeness can only
be brought about when the
teachings of Yeshua/Jesus and
TheWay becomes a mindset and
lifestyle that develops the
person and brings them to
Completion. In the parable of
the prodigal son, the
experiences in what is portrayed
as the Far Country develops the
son -- enables him to prevail
and to rule over himself -- and
it is this state of Completion
within himself that permits him
to return to the Edenic Kingdom
of the Father. Each and every
person is presently evolving to
this state of Completion and
Wholeness in the Omega of
Perfection, that will permit
them to return to their True
Source of Being. |

The Key Of
Knowledge: When Jesus
condemned the leaders of the
Jews as blind guides, it was
because they threw away the Key
Of Knowledge. In the fourth
century of our Common Era, the
Church of Rome in like manner
threw away the Key Of Knowledge
-- causing the Christian world
to become lost and wandering in
what Jesus portrayed as the "outer
darkness" of
Mind and Being.

The Light Of Yeshua -- The
Messianic Nazirene Disciple of
TheWay:
While many
teach that believers are saved
by faith, the journey of the
disciple of Yeshua is one of
absolute dedication to The Way.
The disciple who becomes a
brother to Yeshua must live as
he lived, and become a Nazirene
who is consecrated and wholly
set apart as they walk the
Narrow Way, enter into the
Kingdom through the Strait Gate,
and learn directly from the L-rd
-- the One Rabbi and Teacher of
the Mysteries of G-d. |

Divine Strategery: How God Fools
Mankind - Keeping Him Ignorant
Of The Truth: Strategery
has become synonymous with when
what is portrayed as simple,
simpleminded, or even
self-evident, is able to dupe
and thwart an opposing force
that perceives itself to be
either superior, or to suppose
they know the answers. Divine
Strategery is how God fools all
the religious leaders of this
world who think they
doctrinally know God
-- all the would-be teachers and
philosophers of this world who
think they
Know Truth -- all the
Atheists and those who criticize
and denounce the existence of
God by virtue of their limited
perception and understanding --
and all the people in this world
who think they understand the
purpose of life and the world in
which we presently dwell. As
prodigal sons and daughters of
our Heavenly Father, if the
people in this life knew the
answers, then the learning
experience of
God's SchoolHouse of this
world would not effectively
evolve us to become true
Brothers and Sisters of our
Elder Brother Yeshua/Jesus.
Therefore, in order to insure
that each of us is immersed in
the necessary learning
experience that this life
offers, all people are equally
fooled into thinking they know,
in order for them to be
manipulated into embracing a
higher agenda that is beyond
their ability to even imagine.
Thus, Divine Strategery!!!

Reincarnation - The Key To
Christianity And The The
Pre-Existent Soul of Mankind:
Jesus taught the reality of the
pre-existent soul that evolves
to perfection over the course of
many lifetimes. The Church
adheres to the doctrine and
theology of a Circus Prostitute
and a Roman Emperor who
maintained absolute control over
what Christians were permitted
to believe! Christians continue
to cling to the theology of this
Circus Prostitute today -
rejecting the teachings of
Jesus, while adhering to the
doctrines of Pagan Rome. The
mass confusion of an uncountable
number of sects today, is the
direct result of the void which
was brought about when this
foundational concept was removed
from both the Bible, as well as
Christian doctrine. The
doctrinal quagmire which was
brought about with the removal
of this foundational teaching,
obstructs Christians growth and
maturity beyond the entry-level
simple faith. Because they
adhere to the corrupted
doctrines of men, modern
Christians can't inherit the
Biblical Promise of entering the
Kingdom and Life.

It
was said of the Church Father
Origen by St. Gregory of Nyssa
that he was
“the
prince of Christian learning in
the Third Century” --
and the Encyclopedia Britannica
calls him
“…the most
prominent of all the church
fathers”. But how
did he become the man that St.
Jerome considered to be
“the
greatest teacher of the Church
after the Apostles”?
According to the soul who lived
as Origen, he had previously
lived as the disciple and scribe
of Jacob who people call James,
who was the Brother of Jesus.
And from that life with Jacob,
he learned to write scriptures
in Hebrew Characters, and he
worked on the original source
scriptures which has since come
to be called the New Testament
scriptures of the Bible. On
his web site, Emmanuel Pohorecki
reveals not only the accounts of
the many lifetimes that he has
lived, but also his own journey
into the presence of his
soul-self -- i.e., his true self
who is the Being of Light. And
once again Emmanuel has
demonstrated that you don't need
to physically die to communicate
with, and enter into the
presence of your soul-self who
is the Being of Light in the
Near Death Experience. And in
his soon to be completed article
on the Journey of the Soul and
Visions from his Higher Self, he
will write about what his
soul-self has taught him while
in the Realm of Souls.
Emmanuel provides other
important insights in man's
higher reality with his account
of his life with Fr. Francis, as
a Native American, and as one of
the Constitutional Founding
Fathers of the United States.

The Long Island Mystic and
Nazirene Disciple of TheWay:
The Organizational HomePage of
The Nazirene -- the Long Island
Mystic, Evangelical Minister,
and Prophet of TheWay -- who God
bestowed upon him the gift of
the recall of his previous life
as a Disciple and Brother of
Messiah/Christ -- and thus has
re-entered this world at the
present time in order to restore
the Spiritual Essence and
Teachings of his Master, Yeshua/Jesus.
The Kingdom is within! And we
must sojourn the narrow path of
TheWay, enter the "strait
gate" to the Inner Spiritual
Temple, while still alive in the
physical body. Thus, modern
Christians have misunderstood
the words of Yeshua -- he never
said that we must physically die
to enter the Edenic Kingdom of
Origination -- but rather, we
must die to the culture, mindset
and ways of this world in order
to enter the Kingdom! |

Being Of Light:
Who are we? What are we? From
where have we come? What is our
destiny? To the demise of those
who read these words, only a
handful of people today can
answer these all-important
crucial questions correctly! The
rest dwell under the cloud of
unknowing -- and if you think
you are the person whose
reflection you see in the
mirror, then you are a stranger
to your true self and have made
yourself part of the illusion of
this world. With great wisdom
Yeshua/Jesus is quoted in The
Books of the Savior, also known
as Pistis Sophia (Faith-Wisdom):
"Do not
cease seeking day or night, and
do not let yourselves relax
until you have found all the
Mysteries of the Kingdom of
Light, which will purify you and
make you into Pure Light and
lead you into the Kingdom of
Light." |

Gospel of the Nazirenes --
Gospel Of Light:
What did the Gospels look like
before being edited and
re-written by the Church of
Rome? What were the original
beliefs of the first followers
of Yeshua? You will be
astonished when you read a
surviving text of The Gospel of
the Nazirenes which was hidden
away from the corrupters of the
Roman Church. Are you ready for
a truly enlightening experience? |

The Orthodox Corruption of the
Scriptures: Was
the Bible rewritten? Prof.
Nestle writes: "Learned
men, so called Correctores were,
following the church meeting at
Nicea 325 AD, selected by the
church authorities to scrutinize
the sacred texts and rewrite
them in order to correct their
meaning in accordance with the
views which the church had just
sanctioned." To
ignore the facts is to alienate
oneself from the Living Word of
God |

The Suppressed Teachings On
Children:
"And calling to him a child,
he put him in the midst of them,
and said, Truly,
I say to you, unless you turn
and become like children, you
will never enter the kingdom of
heaven"
(Mat 18: 2-3). Because the
important teachings on children
were removed from the Gospels,
it remains virtually impossible
for the modern believer to gain
entrance into the Inner Kingdom |
|

What
Happened To Zackarias?
Because the mainstream of
Christians can't even begin to
answer the question as to what
happened to Zackarias? It
remains impossible for them to
understand the true reality of
the scriptures -- or why the
religion of the pre-Nicene
Church Fathers was very
different than the dogma
preached from the pulpits
today. And while the missing
account of Zackarias can be
easily proven today, the fact
that the modern Christians
ignores the facts and the truth
has had the effect of
disenfranchising them from the
Kingdom they have been commanded
to seek out. |

Things Christians Never Tell
Jews About The New Testament:
Many Jews have been misinformed
when they have been warned by
Christians that if they don't
believe and come to Jesus, they
will not inherit salvation and
eternal life. Part of this is an
error of ignorance -- i.e.,
because their Christian
forefathers were adulterous, and
defiled their own covenant with
the Lord in the manner of the
Jews when they worshiped other
gods, they have yet to recover
from their spiritual temple
being plundered and ravished by
the unclean and dark forces of
this world. They therefore have
lost their own way, and no
longer can come into the
Presence of the Lord.
The Facts:
Both Christians and the Jews
they have persecuted, condemned,
and even murdered over the past
two thousand years will be
shocked by what they will read
herein! What they will learn is
a fact that has long confused
many sincere students of the New
Testament scriptures --
scriptures which are very Jewish
in origin -- and because of
their very mystical Jewish
essence, has long confounded the
non-Jews who have championed the
Gospel message. To their own
undoing, most Christians ignore
their own theologians and
biblical scholars who have
attempted to warn them that the
scriptures are paradoxical --
i.e., that in all theological
positions there exists two lines
of seemingly opposite and
conflicting truths presented to
the reader -- and those who
accept one truth while ignoring
the other, will themselves fall
into heresy by falling into
grave sectarian error with
respect to the true meaning of
the Gospel message. Thus, those
who maintain that there is no
salvation apart from belief in
the historical Jesus in the
manner of modern Christian
doctrine, have themselves fallen
into the trap of heresy that the
very first followers of Jesus
warned believers not to fall
into! And while it is true that
these sectarian vicars of the
Church can prove their position
by using the scriptures, it is
further true that their own
scriptures also contain another
line of truth that presents an
entirely different picture than
what the Church has portrayed to
the world -- a picture where the
opposite is also true.

The Sower And The Seed:
Unless you become the "good
ground" in the parable of the
Sower And The Seed, it will
remain impossible for you to
comprehend the true spiritual
meaning of the Gospel and the
higher reality of the soul and
the Kingdom of God. |

The Secret Doctrine Of
Christianity: In the
approximate year of 178 of our
Common Era, Celsus, the
Epicurean Philosopher and
opponent of Christianity
published a rather embarrassing
work in opposition to
Christianity known as The True
Word or Discourse. It is said
that this work was widely
published and used by the Pagan
world as an attack on the
Church. In examination of this
document, the modern Christian
must initially ask: Who today
would accuse the Christian
Church of being a
“secret
system”? No one --
because the Church today has
lost its spiritual essence --
and is a mere shadow of its
former self over the first three
centuries of its existence.
Therefore, it is important for
us to recognize that such an
allegation would be unheard of
in our present time. |

The Enigma Of The Shepherd Of
Hermas: Even though it is
said of the Shepherd of Hermas
that it was
"...the
most popular books, if not the
most popular book, in the
Christian Church during the
second, third, and fourth
centuries...", it
remains unknown to the modern
Church. Why? Why was the book
that is representative of the
core Gospel of the earliest
Church, no longer is use today?
Because while Hermas reflected
the original teachings of Jesus
and TheWay, it would be deemed
heresy by the modern Church. And
when rightly understood, the
fact of the matter is that it is
impossible for the modern
believer, critic, biblical
expert or scholar to in any
manner understand the message
that Hermas bears. Which means
that if the Shepherd of Hermas
was indeed the most popular
scripture in the Gentile Church
over the first three centuries,
then it can rightly be stated
that the modern Church has
virtually nothing in common with
the pre-Nicene Gentile Church.

Divine Manna:
"To him
who overcomes will I give to eat
of the hidden manna"
(Rev 2:8-17). "My People Are
Destroyed For Lack Of Knowledge
Because You Have Rejected
Knowledge, I Reject You..."
(Hosea 4:6). "Blessed are
those who do His commandments,
that they may have the right to
the tree of life, and may enter
through the gates into the city.
But outside are dogs and
sorcerers and sexually immoral
and murderers and idolaters, and
whoever loves and practices a
lie" (Rev 22:14).
"Therefore, he who rejects this
instruction does not reject man
but God, who gives you his Holy
Spirit" (1 Thes 4:8 NIV) |

Gospel Of Thomas:
These are the secret sayings
which the living Jesus spoke and
which Didymos Judas Thomas wrote
down. And he said, "Whoever
finds the interpretation of
these sayings will not
experience death." Jesus said,
"Let him who seeks continue
seeking until he finds. When he
finds, he will become troubled.
When he becomes troubled, he
will be astonished, and he will
rule over the All."

The Gate Of Eden:
Why were the Nazirene/Ebionites
vegetarian? Why did they live
in accordance with the precepts
of the Torah/Law? Why did they
live separate and apart from
both Jews and Christians? The
answer is very simple: The Gate
of Eden is within us, and if we
fail to enter therein while we
are still physically alive in
the body, we will have failed in
our opportunity to enter into
Life. And while it can be
countered that we are saved by
our belief in Messiah/Christ,
faith, or the blood of the lamb,
the truth is that if we were
truly faithful disciples of
TheWay, that we would experience
the opening of the inner door
and the Kingdom coming within
us. The GateOfEden article
explores all aspects of the need
to pick up one's own cross and
follow the narrow path that
leads to the inner gate to the
Edenic Kingdom of Origination. |

What was the Mysteries of the
Gospel that Jesus revealed only
to the inner core of disciples?
While teaching the multitude of
the people only in parables? "And
the disciples came and said to
Him, Why do You speak to them in
parables? He answered and said
to them, Because it has been
given to you to know the
mysteries of the kingdom of
heaven, but to them it has not
been given" (Matt
13:10-11 NKJ). As someone who
was there, at the time, what is
presented in this article is not
only far beyond the
understanding of any book that
you could read, or teacher you
could seek out. what is
presented in this article will
force you to re-evaluate
everything that you thought you
knew about both yourself, and
the very purpose of life as you
think you understand it. And
even more revealing than the
three major lies of Judaism,
Christianity and Islam that
inhibits the people from
understanding the foundational
essence of all three religions,
is an examination of both the
lies and profound truths of the
emerging scientific world which
is for the most part ignored by
our cultural icons, because the
findings of modern quantum
physics confirms the visionary
truths of the Mystics which the
religious and intellectual
worlds have long censored from
the common understanding. |

Epistle Of Light - Epistle Of
James To Pope John Paul II:
2000 years ago I lived as Jacob
the brother of Jesus known as
James. I was sent back to bring
about the restoration of the
Church, and the within letter to
Pope John Paul is important for
you to read and forward. The
pope has the power to bring
peace on earth if he releases
certain early Christian
documents that are in his
possession. Jesus is calling out
to you to help make the truth
known! Will you hear the call? |

Light Of Yeshua: The
Essence of Messianic Judaism and
being Spiritually Torah
Observant. Many Messianic Jews
attempt to embrace traditional
Christian doctrine with a Jewish
facade in an attempt to convert
other Jews to a quasi-form of
Jewish-Christianity with a Pagan
foundation. In view of the fact
that the original followers of
Yeshua are historically
described as “…rejected from one
religion as apostates, and from
the other as heretics” (Gibbon:
Decline & Fall of the Roman
Empire, v.1, p.416), this
conversion to
Jewish-Christianity would be a
grave error. |

The Cross And The Seat Belt:
The
only mean by which mankind can
move beyond his present
limitations and struggles with
the unknown, is to gain access
to the Source of what he
observes and interacts with in
the world which is in what the
mystic and scientist affirm as
being the (Etheric) Field that
surrounds all matter that we
observe with our physical
senses. But to accomplish
this, man must develop ways to
effectively use his suppressed
Intuitive spheres of mind.
Which means that to even begin
to tap into the unseen Source,
we must move beyond our
traditional behaviors, mindset
and perception of reality, and
begin to embrace untraditional
ways that permit the development
and use of our suppressed
Intuitive facilities of mind.
If what man presently portrays
as accidents, can indeed be
perceived prior to the event
taking place -- and thus, be
avoided -- then we will have
eliminated the massive suffering
and even death that is the
result of these episodes of
human existence. And
therefore, if the witness of
both the Mystic and the emerging
scientific evidence is true --
and reality must he sought in
the unseen (Etheric) Field as
the Source of all events that
transpire -- then it becomes
imperative for man to begin to
develop and evolve those
Intuitive spheres of mind that
has been abandoned and left
atrophied by the linear-only
elements of our modern culture. |

How Did Jesus Become The Son Of
God It
is a widely accepted doctrine
among Christians today that the
disciples and Ebionite Nazirene
followers did not comprehend the
true nature of Jesus, because
they did not proclaim that he
was God -- as did the later
Gentile converts. Yet, just
the opposite is true -- i.e.,
the vast majority of Romans and
Greeks were too pagan and
heathen in their thinking and
mindset, to understand the
higher spiritual concepts that
Jesus and his disciples revealed
to mankind. Even today the
problem remains with respect to
our inability to understand why
Jesus was different than we are.
Because Christians cling to the
doctrines of Rome, they are
unable to answer many important
foundational questions that
would permit their thinking to
evolve beyond what Paul
portrayed as the entry-level
doctrines of the simple faith
that are elementary in their
understanding. And while Paul
warns that the "natural"
(organic) mind of man is
incapable of understanding the
higher reality of the soul and
the Inner Kingdom -- warning
that committed and baptized
believers will reject the
Mysteries of God as utter
"foolishness" -- yet, the modern
Church to their own destruction
continues to ignore this
all-important warning. What
enabled Jesus to perform
miracles? What enabled him to be
able to communicate with the
Father? Surely, we conclude, he
could not have been a normal
man. Therefore, we arrive at the
only possible answer from our
very limited perspective and
conclude that the Jewish
disciples and earliest followers
of Jesus must have been wrong,
and he had to have been God to
know all that he knew, and be
able to do all that he did.
Thus, the flaw in the thinking
of the Church is in their
inability to envision and
comprehend the manner in which
mankind grows and evolves to a
state of spiritual maturity --
how man, the prodigal son, who
was created in the image and
likeness of God, his Heavenly
Father, begins to take on all
the attributes of his Creator
and Parent. In not understanding
the process by which each of us
embraces our eventual destiny,
we worship instead of imitating
the pattern that Yeshua/Jesus
provided for all the prodigal
sons and daughters of the Most
High to follow. |

Lilith - The Demonic Reality Of
Feminism: In
the Divine Pattern of Creation
man and woman are not only
equal, but the mental/spiritual
level of one polarity directly
affects and limits the other.
The spiritual ignorance of many
religious groups today is
directly in proportion to the
failure of men and women to
interact and move into a state
of spiritual harmony and
balance. |
