Science of the Sacraments by Charles Leadbeater
This would be the best book available that describes the actual spiritual events that occur during the Eucharist.  Charles Leadbeater was one of the most brilliant clairvoyants at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, and he  accurately records all he sees during the performing of the Mass.  The accuracy of this book has been vouched for by so many other psychics, (including some of the present Australian Church of Antioch Clergy), and they join in with the others to commend the quality of this work.    
One minor statement about women's ability to be celebrants that Leadbeater made in this book, is no longer relevant, and Leadbeater did himself acknowledge that this information would in the very near future be redundant.   This has proved to come true with the Church of Antioch USA. and Australia both having gained true lines of female succession in 1987 that are perfectly in balance with the male.  
Available through all theosophical bookshops.  
Please be aware that the new editions have deleted the section on the robes, croziers, etc.  For information on these, contact us for a copy of this section from the old edition. 
Link to PDF Version with corrections to pages 20,41,42,78 & 237.  See also "What Have I got to Say".

The Validity of Apostolic Succession, Holy Orders, and Sacraments in the Catholic Apostolic Church of Antioch - by Monsignor J Sweeley. 
Mons Sweeley has investigated and left no stone unturned to get to the roots of the beginnings and the subsequent moving down through the centuries of this question of Apostolic succession, and how (if at all) female lines have any affect on the succession.  I am rather doubtful that there is any question that could be asked on this subject that Mons Sweeley's book will not touch on, for such is the depth of his investigation and research.  Any man, and especially any woman having doubt about succession will find this informative and will relieve any doubts to their mind about the genuine lines within the Church of Antioch. Nothing is doctored or twisted up to give an impression in any direction.  The facts are presented openly and honestly, and then you decide for yourself.  This is always the approach by Mons Sweeley to refrain from forcing his personal opinions upon any person. Truly a book full of little known facts about Apostolic information.

When Women Were Priests by Karen Jo Torjesen
Some facts about when women were priests in the Roman Church long before they were outlawed by a misogynistic Pope in the fifth century AD. This outlines the lies of the Church to hide these facts that are now coming to the fore with the discovery of more ancient texts revealing the presence of Women in the clergy roles.

The Cosmic Human Yo Yo by Archbishop Frank Bugge
This book describes the principles of Re-incarnation and also lists just a few of the many incarnations of Archbishop Frank Bugge going back through Atlantis, ancient Egypt and other places, to even further beyond any recorded history. It also gives a chart of exactly where the Soul lies in our divine being of our Spiritual consciousness. There are several brief descriptions of the time spent between incarnations, and an overall description of the full process.  As one reads through this book, you will get the feelings and the reactions of changing genders as we change from lifetime to lifetime. Also there is much of the visions during these lifetimes that will certainly NOT concur with history. The author contends that many are the assumptions of the academics that are convenient to fit their limited facts, and therefore many are the mistakes they have settled on and accepted. One very wise man once said --- "HISTORY IS THE LIE THAT ALL GOVERNMENTS OF THE DAY AGREE UPON.  
The Author states "I have no doubt that most of the academics will surely not agree on this and condemn this statement, but in the words of Pontius Pilate --- What I have written I have written.

Science of the Sacraments by Charles W Leadbeater.

I have added to my website a pdf copy of Charles W Leadbeater's The Science of the Sacraments.  The Australian Church of Antioch closely follow much of Leadbeater's work. It appears that Leadbeater was not pro female ordination, the reason for this was that Leadbeater tried to ordain women priests, but with his clairvoyant sight he could see it did not work.  If you see the comments on the relevant pages of our copy of the book you will see why he made this mistake.  There are comments on Pages 20,41,42,78 & 237 by Archbishop Frank Bugge, Presiding Archbishop of the Australian Church of Antioch, explaining the differences between the male & female energy flows, how the censing sequence should be changed, and the Pectoral Cross worn by a Bishop.  In the latest versions of this book, I understand that the information about the robes etc has been ommitted as not necessary.  We believe this information is imperative for the understanding of, & therefore working with, not against, the correct energy flows during a Eucharist.  The reason that Leadbeater came to Australia was because he knew the female lines would be restored to the Christian Church in this country.  Leadbeater did say that they would be restored soon, and indeed they were.  He could not find them, but Archbishop Herman Spruit did, and bestowed those lines to the Australian Church of Antioch.

Happy reading to those who are interested. 

If you are, put your feet up, grab a cuppa, open your mind, you in for a long read. 

Blessings.

Bible Facts - Did You Know

24/12/2012

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.

Did You Know - Hair

20/12/2012

Did you know....... that in the old temples of Jerusalem, the Priests and Priestesses never cut their hair, and they coiled it up in either clockwise or anti clockwise fashion depending on the ritual they wished to perform. Each direction creates a different energy flow of cosmic energy into the body, which is quite often the same energy that is sent to us in the Mass ritual. It all depends on the celebrant's desire, and the ritual performed as to fine tuning the energy.
