Did You Know…….A point for your own thought here --- whom did Jesus first appear to after he was resurrected. It was his beloved Mary Magdalene. Would Jesus have appeared firstly to a woman if they were so unimportant as many mainline churches constantly infer.

As for Mary Magdalene being a reformed prostitute, what profound pathetic piffle this fabrication is. In some of the old dialects the word for prostitute and priestess is one and the same. (There is a good reason for that but that is another story). The translator thinking they were doing the right thing transcribed this word as prostitute, thinking there are no such thing as women priests therefore it must be prostitute. This was not so, for there WERE women priests in the original Christian Church. It was the Patriarchal Misogynistic Popes, Bishops and other church elders who were totally responsible for getting rid of women clergy and there is ample proof of this in spite of the constant denial of the Vatican and other church hierarchies. Some of this proof is inlaid in tile throughout the very old European Churches and cannot be destroyed without wrecking the heritage listed buildings. This is quite irksome to the church fathers, but even they dare not desecrate these buildings. The next best thing is that they were covered up by tapestries, and a Papal bull issued that these tapestries must not be removed as they are consecrated and sacred. In spite of this there are those who ignored the papal order, climbed up and peeped behind them. Inlaid in mosaic tiles are pictures of women bishops and they are named, and bold statement to their gender is also written in tile. When these old churches were built, do you really think the Church elders of the day would sanction any builder to desecrate their new church by the installation of any untrue fanciful imaginary event such as this? I hardly think so.

BIBLE FACTS
Over the years we see that the Bible has been translated several times into many languages and this is a commendable task. There are however the many distortions that have crept in sometimes accidentally, sometimes the translator doing his/her best and settling for what they thought was right, and lastly the heinous offence of deliberately twisting this magnificent book of life for reasons of power gain. When I say Bible, read that in many cases this also applies to the Koran, and many other religious texts. While I write mainly for the Christian tradition, I here quote my main teacher, my mentor and friend Archbishop Herman Adrian Spruit in saying “Christians do NOT have a monopoly on this information.”

THE ORIGINAL BIBLE IS PERFECTLY ACCURATE IN EVERY DETAIL, LEAVE US NEVER DOUBT OR FORGET THIS UNCHANGEABLE FACT.

We see that God created the world in six days and He rested on the seventh. When the texts were translated from the original there was a word that could not be explained satisfactorily. God created the world in six days of ???Brahma???. As the translators could not understand what the word meant, it was so simple to just omit it. This omission gave a completely different meaning to the text. If one goes to the ancient Hindu texts they will inform you that a day of Brahma is in Earth terms 8,640,000,000,000 years. What a different picture this presents us with. Instead of 24 hours we deal now with enormous lengths of time, more in tune with the scientists’ estimation of things. With this new knowledge, if we now compare this to the result of the scientist’s estimation of the age of the universe, they will find they are within spitting distance of each other. This means that science with its big bang theory and the theory of creation now align, almost perfectly with each other. Remember the Scientists estimated the age, and I think they did this rather well considering all things, but the Bible gives us closer and more accurate timing while upholding the scientific view, as indeed the scientific view now also upholds the Bible.

Did you know that Jesus was a pagan? He and his family, John the Baptist, many of the disciples were all Essenes. That information is well recorded, but what is not well known is that the Essenes were simply Jews who were Druids, and the Church has hidden this fact for centuries to claim "sole ownership" of Jesus. Jesus was actually respected in the Judean, and Hannifi traditions (hannifi being the esoteric school tradition from which Mohammed came). Mention of the prophet Mohammed being an outcast Christian Cardinal is erroneous, but Mohammed was a Qatan in the Hannifi which is the same rank as cardinal in Christian circles. Islam as taught by Mohammed was compatible with Christianity and they certainly were NOT at loggerheads with each other, until human intervention into the teachings of both sides was provided over periods of time.

I was asked for a further explanation as to what the changing from the Piscean Age to the Aquarian Age means and here it is……..
The Universe is never still and is forever progressing and evolving. This means that the earth comes under the different planetary energies and forces which gradually change every 2160 years. 2160 represents the length of time in each zodiac house. In 1956 the Piscean energies started to wane as the Piscean age comes to an end. Also in 1956, the Aquarian energies started to rise. These will meet and cross in 2056. From 2056 the Aquarian energy will then be stronger than the Piscean energy. These will reach a peak in 2156. At this time we will then have exactly 2160 years to the peaking of the next zodiacal age. As a point of interest this is when we hand over to the new Christ Force Manager of which Jesus held this Office for the Piscean age. An added to that is that this Sunday the 23rd December 2012 is exactly 144 years to the day for the coming of the next one to hold the position of The Christ Force. This shall be in female form and she will then hold the Title & Office of The Christ Force. Christ was not his name, but a Title & Office held by Jesus. To those that say that it is untrue that there are no other Avatars before nor after Jesus, I ask you this. Do you really think that God has only and will only ever send one person to “save the world” in all the centuries of its existence? The Mayans knew this information to be true and that is the meaning behind their “predictions” (not actually predictions but their knowledge) it has just been misinterpreted, an end of an age not the end of the world.

The Mayans used a 13 signed zodiac which appears to be the equivalent of the Celtic 13 month year. Information on the Mayan 13 sign zodiac is in several scholarly works including some articles by Morley in the early 20th century who is also a Mayan expert. The 13 sign Celtic system is tested in Rodrick O’flaritey’s, Oggya, 1st edition from 1690 also Ledwitch Antiquities of Ireland which is an 18th century work. There are numerous other sources accepted scholarly for this conclusion.

As to 23rd December, it is mentioned amongst other things by Jenkins in his books on the Mayan Calendar and he gives scholarly sources in support of that date. Also it is a well accepted date by several other Mayan scholars.

Implicit in several Biblical texts as well as in a series of several other ancient scriptures. In relation to early Christian knowledge of the procession of the equinoxes and the coming of a new age, we recommend the work of Gordon Strachin (several books) and also the important analysis of R.H. Charles of the meaning of the Stones of Holy City in the Book of Revelations. I would point out that Charles was a world renowned and highly respected Biblical Scholar who was a very respected main stream Anglican Christian.

I am not the clever one here with the knowledge, it is part of the curriculum within The Australian Church of Antioch for all Priests.

The Australian Church of Antioch has a vast library of very interesting books. Here is another interesting one to verify information. The Temple at the Centre of Time by David Flynn a well known contemporary Christian author. It is a study of King Solomons Temple which documents that 2012 is an important date in Biblical chronology. And this makes no reference to the Mayan prophecies so therefore the same "prediction" from 2 totally different sources.
