THE ROSETTA STONE AND THE
RESTORATION OF THE LOST LANGUAGE OF EGYPT & THE TRUTH ABOUT "THE
CHRIST"
Egyptian hieroglyphics had been used by the Egyptians for thousands
of years. However, a particularly bleak period of Egyptian history is the
conquest of Egypt by Persia. The Egyptians were dominated by Persian
intruders. In the Twenty-sixth Dynasty there was a revival of independence
and prosperity, which was followed by the Persian conquest and the period
from the Twenty-seventh Dynasty to the Thirtieth Dynasty inclusive was one
of Persian domination, except for brief intervals when the Egyptians
gained temporary independence. The
events that changed the nature of Egypt were not the Persian conquest but
rather the war between Persia (the new rulers of Egypt) and the united
Greek city-states. Greece had originally been united by
Philip of Macedon and then ruled effectively by Alexander the Great.
Alexander defeated the Persian forces and then took his army to Egypt.
There he was welcomed as a conquering hero by the Egyptians because he
brought an end to Persian rule. He was made a god by the Egyptians as well
as a pharaoh. He, however, had other campaigns to wage and took his army
off to the Middle East and the Indus River Valley leaving a regent in
charge of Egypt. After the conquest of the Persians in Asia by the Greeks,
Alexander the Great took possession of Egypt and the Greek domination
under his successors, the Ptolemies, lasted until Egypt became a Roman
province, the country then remaining in Roman occupation until the Arab
conquest.
After the death of Alexander the Great in 323 BC, his empire was
divided among his three most trusted and powerful generals. The throne of
Egypt fell to Ptolemy I, the son of Lagus. Ptolemy took Alexander’s
preserved body in a jar filled with honey back to Alexandria. Ptolemy ran
Egypt like a business, strictly for profit. He was welcomed by the
Egyptians as part of Alexander the Great’s family. Ptolemy then
became the pharaoh, Ptolemy I. By so doing, he set the name standard for
the 32nd Dynasty which turned out to be the last of Egypt’s great
dynasties. All of his male successors were called Ptolemy and all of his
female successors were called Cleopatra.
As we move to the end
of this Greek Dynasty, there was increasing involvement with the Roman
Empire. The Roman civil war between Caesar and Pompeii indirectly involved
Egypt. Pompeii lost this war and turned to Egypt for
shelter and young Ptolemy (several generations below Ptolemy I) had him
executed and delivered to Caesar. The young Ptolemy, thinking this would
ingratiate him with Caesar was totally incorrect. His sister, Cleopatra,
who was vying for the throne had other ways of ingratiating herself with
Caesar - they had children together. Caesar was unfortunately assassinated
while visiting Rome and his empire was divided up between General Marcus
Antonious and his adopted son, Octavian. Marcus Antonious was better known
as Marc Antony. Marc Antony took rulership of that part of the Empire that
contained Egypt and that resulted in his inheriting Cleopatra. They, too,
had children. His relationship with Octavian broke down and resulted in a
war which Marc Antony lost. Antony was killed and Cleopatra committed
suicide. Their male children were executed and their female children were
probably married off to local princes. The
Egyptian dynastic system was ended and a Roman Governorship was
established.
During the Ptolemic
dynasty, Egyptian and Greek languages were used simultaneously. During the
Roman Governorship only Latin was used and occasionally Greek.
Within a hundred years the Egyptian hieroglyphics were no
longer used or understood by anyone and even the Roman authors of the time
suggested that hieroglyphics was not even a language. In the truest sense
this is now a dead language. Thus, following the Roman invasion of Egypt
in 30 B.C.E. the use of hieroglyphics began to die out with the last known
writing in the fifth century AD.
Ultimately the Roman Empire fell and the Middle Ages "came
about". Nevertheless, there existed a constant contact between Europe
and Egypt such that hieroglyphics were consistently known by the European
elite. The reason for this is that medical practices of the Middle Ages
resulted in the prescription of bitumen, ground up mummies as a cure for
various kinds of diseases. Thus, there was a trade in whole mummies which
resulted in examples of hieroglyphics coming into Europe throughout the
Dark Ages.
As a result, there
were some early attempts at translation of hieroglyphics.
In 1633, a Jesuit priest named Anthanasius Kircher, whose specialities
were the humanities, science, language and religion translated the word ‘autocrat’
or in Greek ‘autocratur’ into German and did so by substituting
ideas for the images. His translation read "the originator of all
moisture and all vegetation whose creative forces is brought into this
kingdom by the holy mukta" (is this a ‘bureaucrat’?)
The history of the deciphering of the Egyptian hieroglyphics during
the 16th and 17th centuries took small steps toward final interpretation.
Some scholars thought that the hieroglyphics were the origin of other
languages. Some believed that hieroglyphics spelled nothing at all. Yet
others believed that the hieroglyphics were an indication of social
stratification or social significance.
This speculation would have continued had not a political event
interceded. The almost constant warfare between Britain and France
resulted in a major change in the understanding of hieroglyphics. The
French under Napoleon
Bonaparte decided that they could defeat the British by
attacking Egypt and subsequently controlling the rich food supply from
along the Nile.
In August of 1798, 13 French ships landed near Alexandria at Aboukir
Bay in Egypt and marched inland to fight the British near Cairo. The night
before the battle, Napoleon exhorted his troops on by saying something
like "Soldiers, from the tops of these pyramids, forty centuries are
looking down at you." The French ground forces won the conflict but
the British navy, under the command of Lord Horratio Nelson, defeated the
French navy. Napoleon believed that he would be in Egypt for only a few
months, but he and his men were stranded there for three years with no way
to return home. Napoleon had brought with him between nearly 1000
civilians including 167 of whom were scientists, technicians,
mathematicians and artists who studied the art, architecture, and culture
of Egypt during their "extended vacation." From 1809-1828, they
published a 19-volume work called Description of Egypt. Their
observations, drawings and illustrations were circulated throughout Europe
and created a tremendous interest in antiquities of Egypt.
The soldiers continued to "dig in" and they reconstructed
forts as most soldiers had done during previous centuries by using
building stones previously used by earlier peoples. In
1799, while extending a fortress near Rosetta, a small city near
Alexandria, a young French officer named Pierre-Francois Bouchard found a
block of black basalt stone. It measured three feet nine inches long, two
feet four and half inches wide, and eleven inches thick and it contained
three distinct bands of writing. The most incomplete was the top band
containing hieroglyphics, the middle band was 
an
Egyptian script called Demontic script (he did not know that), and the
bottom was ancient Greek (he did recognize the bottom band). This stone
was called the Rosetta Stone. He
took the stone to the scholars and they realized that it was a royal
decree that basically stated that it was to be written in the languages
used in Egypt at the time. Scholars began to focus on the Demontic script,
the middle band, because it was more complete and it looked more like
letters than the pictures in the upper band that were hieroglyphics. It
was essentially a shorthand hieroglyphics that had evolved from an earlier
shorthand version of Egyptian called Heiratic script.
Material from Egypt was continuously coming into Europe. In order to
display their status, the European gentry and nobility normally had some
Egyptian relics in their possession, perhaps an art object on a table or
if one were quite rich, they might have an obelisk in the front yard of
the estate. Material containing hieroglyphics continued to enter Europe at
a reasonably accelerated rate.
The first to make any sense of the Demontic script on the Rosetta
Stone was a French scholar named Silvester deSacy. Silvestre deSacy was an
important and skilled French linguist. He identified the symbols which
comprised the word ‘Ptolemy’ and ‘Alexander’ thus,
establishing a relationship between the symbols and sounds. Johann
Akerblad who history records as a Swedish diplomat, looked at the Rosetta
Stone with an additional knowledge of Coptic. Coptic was the language used
by the Coptic church of Egypt, an early Christian group who preserved the
language which was used as early as the 4th century. Coptic was written
with the Greek alphabet but utilizes seven additional symbols from the
Demontic script. Akerblad’s knowledge of Coptic allowed him to
identify the words for ‘love,’ ‘temple’ and ‘Greek’
thus, making it clear that the Demontic script was not only a phonetic
script but it was also translatable.
The earliest translation of the Greek text on the Rosetta Stone into
English was done by Reverend Stephen Weston in London in April 1802 before
the Society of Antiquaries . About this time, both deSacy and Thomas
Young, attempted to decipher the hieroglyphics on the Rosetta Stone. Young
was successful in determining that foreign names could not be represented
by symbols because symbols are based upon the words used in a given
language. Thus, foreign names had to be spelled phonetically. In
hieroglyphics there are groups of symbols that are separated from other
symbols. These encircled
inscriptions are called cartouches. Thomas Young
determined that the cartouches were proper names of people who were not
Egyptian like the names of Ptolemy and Alexander which in Greek were
Ptolemaios and Alexandrus. He successfully deciphered 5 cartouches. His
publication on this matter was far reaching.
At this point there is involvement by a young French historian and
linguist named Jean-Fracois Champollion. Champollion had mastered many
Eastern languages. In 1807, Champollion went to study for two years with
noted French linguist Francois Antoine-Isaac Silvestre deSacy. Later in
his career, Champollion had compiled a Coptic dictionary and read Thomas
Young in 1819. Looking at Young’s writing on the subject of
hieroglyphics, he realized that what Young had actually proven was that
all of hieroglyphics were phonetic, not just those hieroglyphics that were
contained within the cartouches. Utilizing hieroglyphics from an estate at
Kingston Lacey in Britain, Champollion correctly identified the names of
Cleopatra and Alexandrus and verified Ptolemeus which had previously been
identified by Young. He published his results and continued his research.
In 1822 new inscriptions from a temple at Abu Simbel on the Nile were
introduced into Europe and Champollion had correctly identified the name
of the pharaoh who had built the temple. That name was ‘Ramses.’
Utilizing his knowledge of
Coptic he continued to successfully translate the hieroglyphics opening up
an understanding of the Ancient Egyptians.
Answer for yourself: And why is this
important for our studies? Simply this; had it not been for these efforts
to restore the understanding of Egyptian hieroglyphics then we would not
have been able to restore the true understanding of Egyptian writings
along with their religious writings and without this ability then we would
not have seen let alone understand the unbelievable
unique parallels and similarities between the "Jesus Story" in
the New Testament and the main themes of Egyptian religion as acted out in
these hieroglyphics by Osiris, Isis, Horus, and others.
But it does not stop here for detailed study into the "Osiris
Story" and Egyptian religion, just like the "Jesus Story",
reveals that behind a story
of a dying and rising godman like our Jesus and Osiris the Ancients
understood the story on a much deeper metaphysical, mystical, and
mythological meaning. This
"Osiris Story", as well as our "Jesus Story", was
never to be taken and understood as if "literal-historical";
rather it was a story built with the aid of allegory, simile, metaphor,
personification, and anthropomorphic language to express the hidden Divine
Truth of the Descent of the Soul into matter or the Descent of the "Karast/Christ"
into matter which ultimately is the "flesh of mankind".
Along with this when we read the "Osiris Story" we find these
representatives of the Soul in mankind faced with every test and challenge
possible to the humankind and teaching abounds in this "Osiris/Jesus"
story as to how man is to allow and train his Soul to master his flesh and
its propensity to fail and sin while on this plane of existence.
All of this understanding
of these hidden metaphysical and Spiritual Divine concepts would not be
possible today without the aid of the Rosetta stone being recovered.
The pick that struck the Rosetta Stone in the soil of the Nile delta
in 1796 also struck a mighty blow at historical Christianity. For it
releases the voice of a long-voiceless past to refute nearly every one of
Christianity's historical claims with a loud "negative". The
cryptic literature of Old Egypt, sealed in silence when Christianity took
its rise in the 3rd century and further silenced when Rome burned the
ancient libraries of the world, was once again awakened from its long
silent slumber and its voice can once again be heard today in our
generation. Because of our
ability to again read the Egyptian hieroglyphics then the ancient Old
Egyptian literature now raises its voice out of the deep abyss of
forgetfulness to proclaim the true source of every
doctrine found in Christianity as Egyptian, the product and
heritage of a remote past and the spiritual heritage of the "black
race" of Egypt.
With the restoration
of the Egyptian hieroglyphics we now have privy to the translation of the
Egyptian Book of the Dead, the Pyramid Texts, and the Book of Thoth as
they lay on the table of public awareness the irrefutable data which shows
that, Christianity, far from being a first gleam of true light in the
world as Rome would have us believe, Roman Christianity is but a sad,
deplorable poor and crippled distortion, a deformity if you wish, of the
Absolute Truths once treasured by the Ancient Spiritual Masters of Egypt.
In it place Roman Christianity has given the world a monstrous, vulgar and
gross false illusion and purposeful "reinterpretation" of every
religious doctrine that has existed since the beginning of recorded time.
The book of old Egypt unroll the sagas of wisdom which announce the
inexorable truth that not a single doctrine, rite, tenet, or usage in
Christianity was a new contribution to world religion, but
that every article and practice of that faith which goes by the name of
Roman Christianity was a disfigured copy of ancient Egyptian religion in
one way or the other. Christianity today can be shown to
have not registered a single advance in any line of wisdom or truth, but
deplorably disfigured and purposefully misinterpreted every religious
tenet of Egypt religion which it adopted beginning the the late 2nd and
early 3rd century and afterwards. If you find such statements hard to
believe then you need but study and see for yourself such comparisons from
Comparative religions whereby you can see the similarities and later Roman
dissimilarities between the religious doctrines of Egypt and 3rd century
Rome. If you take my
challenge then you will find, as I did, that Roman Christianity and her
illegitimate daughter Protestantism and the entire body of Christian
religious doctrines and dogmas based upon and associated with a "literalized"
and "carnalized Jesus Christ" are nothing more than a revamped
and terribly mutilated Egyptianism.
Answer for yourself: What should this
tell you if you are an insightful reader? Simply, that "close"
only counts in horseshoes. This
should alert you to the fact that the entire Christian Bible, creation
legend, descent into and exodus from Egypt, the ark and flood allegory,
Israelite "history", Hebrew prophecy and poetry, New Testament
Gospels, Epistles, and Revelation imagery, Messianism, Immortality of the
Soul, Reincarnation, as well as "the Karst/Christ" can now all
be proven to have been from the transmission of ancient Egyptian scrolls
and papyri which fell into the hands of later ignorant and untaught
generations which did not know neither the original true meanings of these
doctrines and dogmas let alone their true origin nor their unfathomable
meanings. Long after Egypt's voice, expressed through
the inscribed hieroglyphics, was hushed in silence, the perpetuated relics
of Hamitic (black) Wisdom, with their cryptic message utterly lost, were
brought forth and presented to the world by parties of ignorant zealot of
both Greece and Rome as a new body of truth. The only thing is that it was
never a "new body of truth"; the only new thing about it was the
pitiable exegesis that inspired and accompanied the reissuance by the
Greeks and later Romans.
Only by acknowledging this fact from your personal study along with
your personal adoption of these higher Egyptian religious truths can you
and I ever hope as misguided Christians to rise at last back to the
nobility and splendor once possessed by the Christian Gnostics of Egypt
and Palestine. Judaism is the first step and from there the Christian can
begin to see the Egyptian Roots to this Jewish expression of this Egyptian
Spiritual Wisdom entrusted to the Jewish race while then sojourned in
Egypt. It is time to return home to the cradle of all world religions and
we are blessed to be able to see these truths today like not former time
on this planet in the last two thousand years.
Through the chance stroke of a trench-digger's pick Christianity, as
has been taught for some 1,800 years, is brought to its knees having to
face its plagiarism and "reinterpretation" of Divine Concepts
held sacred by mankind since the beginning of recorded history. The
heathen parentage that it strove so desperately to deny and the marks of
which is so sedulously endeavored to obliterate in the early centuries now
rise from the dead past to charge the whole of Christianity with deceit,
guile, duplicity and deception.
Truly the Rosetta Stone has exposed the lie and revealed the truth
about "the Christ" like never before since it is again possible
to read and understand this Egyptian language. From the scrolls of papyri
five thousand to ten thousand years old there comes stalking forth to view
the whole story of an Egyptian
Jesus raising from the dead an Egyptian Lazarus at an
Egyptian Bethany, with two Egyptian Manes (Marys) present, the
non-historical prototype of the incident related (only) in John's Gospel.
From the walls of the temple of Luxor, carved there at a date at least
1,700 years B.C., there faces Christianity a group of four scenes that
spell the
non-historicity
of four episodes purveyed as history in the Gospels' recital of the
Christ nativity:
- the angels' pronouncement to
the shepherds tending their flocks by night in the fields;
- the annunciation of the angel
to the virgin;
- the adoration of the infant
by three Magi; and
- the nativity scene itself.
Answer for yourself: Sound familiar?
Up until 200 years ago we could not read these inscriptions but now we can
and in so doing we have to wonder how a historical Jesus can both be in
Palestine doing his thing as well as in Ancient Egypt thousands of years
prior doing likewise? Are these events concerning "the Christ"
intended to be understood "literally" as Rome has taught us or
are they to be understood "allegorically" and "mystically"
as Egypt taught them to the world? Is "the Christ" to be
understood as if "historical-literal" or is "the Christ"
but an allegory for the intended "descent and life of the Soul of God
in us"?
Answer for yourself: Is such evidence
fatal to any hope of finding a "historical Jesus" or a "literal-historical
Christ? Well, it should be for there is much more.
Egypt had used the symbol of a star rising in the east as the
portent of coming deity for millennia anterior to the Christian era. Egypt
had knelt at the shrine of the Black Madonna and child, Isis and Horus,
for long centuries before a historical Mary lifted a the "patterned"
supposed historical Jesus in her arms. Egypt
had from remote times, five to ten thousand years B.C., adored a "Karast/Christ"
(Horus) who had raised the dead and healed the lame, halt, blind,
paralytic, leprous and all afflicted, who had restored speech to the dumb,
exorcized demons from the possessed, dispersed his enemies with a word or
look, wrestled with his Satan adversary, overcome all temptation and
performed the works of his heavenly Father to the victorious end.
Answer for yourself:
Can we find Jesus Christ
in Egypt some 10,000 years B.C.E.?
Ancient Egypt had
long known a Jesus, Iusa, who had been born amid celestial portents of an
immaculate parenthood, circumcised, baptized, tempted, glorified on the
mount, persecuted, arrested, tried, condemned, crucified, buried,
resurrected and elevated to heaven. Egypt had listened
to the Sermon on the Mount and the Sayings of Iusa for ages. Egypt had
known a Jesus who long antedated the Gospel Messiah and who presents to
the student hundreds and hundreds of items of identity, similarity and
correspondence in word, deed and function with his later copy which was
presented by Rome as the "unique and only" Jesus.
Answer for yourself: And why is so
important for us to understand and know?
What I uncovered in my 20 years of study is absolutely fascinating
as I see it. The first of my studies in the early years following Seminary
were consumed with viewing the New Testament Jesus through the eyes of the
Judaism and their Rabbis where Israel has for 2,000 years flatly denied
that the New Testament Jesus is the Messiah of the Hebrew Scriptures. I
would come to know why as I would soon come to see that purposeful
misquotations, purposeful mistranslations, and pure Scriptural invention
of "texts" by Rome in order to present to the unaware Gentiles
this "Roman Jesus" as the supposed Messiah of Israel.
This creation
by Rome of a "false Messiah" was done only by gross textual
forgery of our Christian Bibles and few Christians every study hard
enough to see the truth. The fruit of such study showed me
repeatedly that the Jews are right in their rejection of the New Testament
Jesus for we in
Christianity today have unbelievably accepted forged Old and New
Testament texts that are "fixed" to make this New Testament
Jesus appear as the "fulfiller of prophecy" and the awaited
Jewish Messiah when in fact he does not and Judaism has for over 2,000
years denied that he is such a one. But again we don't know this as
typical Christians because few if any Christians even know to look and
compare their passages in their Christian Bibles with the Greek or even
earlier Hebrew passages to see if they have been purposefully altered. In
doing such studies I
was troubled by the many comments by Jewish writers that the New
Testament Jesus and his life "mimicked" the lives of prior
sungods down through recorded history so I had to delve into this and
devoted a website comparing these prior "Jesus Stories" with
the one we have been given as "inspired, infallible, and inerrant"
in our New Testaments by Rome. I, as a Pastor at a mega church in
Dallas, was in tears as such a study was done over the next year or so for
without a doubt my Jesus did not do or say one thing that has not been
done or said by a host of other "sungods" thousands of years
prior to the time the assumed historical Jesus was supposed to live. Along
the way in these studies I ran into the doctrine of "gnosticism"
which had to be investigated in-depth as well; a study that would take two
years to really get my feet wet and which continues today because if
opened my eyes to how Rome systematically destroyed the "First New
Testament" of the early Gnostic Christians "Chrestians"
(Gnostic Chrestians) whom we mistakenly call "Christians" today.
In its place we got the
counterfeit "rewrite" of the Gnostic New Testament where the
mystical Gnostic Christ in us all is replaced by a non-existent "literal-historical"
person which today has not one uncontested or unforged piece evidence that
exits that can substantiate his very existence and a lot that does not.
These Gnostics, I would find out, did not believe in a
human Jesus Christ as amazing as that might sound. In facts the earliest
New Testament had not infancy narratives or genealogies until the late
second century around 180 A.D. when a "human Jesus" all of a
sudden shows up. This
study of gnosticism is highly important because it gave me an accurate "kodak-moment"
of the earliest followers of "the Christ" and then comparisons
with Rome and what they have taught us as Christians is easy to make.
This study began to open my eyes not only to the "Mystical Christ"
but the "Mythical Christ" which comes from the observation of
the Sun through the Heavens and the Zodiac; a study which will show you
the genius and superiority spirituality of the Ancients and their
understanding of the Divine Realm in relation to what we know today.
What you see
here is that the Sun in its movements through the 12 Houses of the
Zodiac, was personified by the Ancients with their keen spiritual
insights, reveal to us that the Creator placed the whole intended plan
for the Descent and growth, life, and maturation and ascent of the Soul
at the end of our lives in the movement of the orbs of the Heavens.
As I continued to study these key "issues" as reflected on these
websites I began to get the "key" to unlock the common thread
between all of these above studies; there exists a common theme repeated
over and over again and the picture began to come clear the more I studied
but I did not want the results I was finding. There was no Jewish Jesus
that Israel would claim, no historical references contemporary to the time
in which he supposedly lived from either Roman or Jewish writers.
The Gnostic Christians
never believed in a historical-Jesus and saw "the Christ" as a
personified concept living and dwelling within the flesh of mankind.
Unlike Rome who limited this Christ to one person these Chrestians taught
that this Christ lives in every child of God and it is man's
responsibility to "awaken" to its presence in one's live. Even
Egypt and their astronomy only reinforced for me the idea that God is
teaching all mankind about "the Christ" that dwells and lives
within all matter, in our case mankind, and He does so through the
movements of the Sun through the Heavens and Zodiac. Following
such a study in Astronomy I saw unbelievably that the personification of
the Sun and its path through the Zodiac for one year follows exactly and
chronologically the "Jesus Story" from the first chapter in the
Gospel of Matthew to the 28th chapter of the Gospel of Matthew. I
was floored to see this as it was the final nail in the coffin of the
supposed "historical Jesus" for me. Many come to such a
conclusion long before this but I had to be certain and left no rock
unturned to find the truth about this supposed "historical Jesus".
No where is to be found any unforged and unadulterated evidence for the
existence of a "literal-historical Jesus Christ" and no matter
how far back you study you find the same things taught about this Christ
since day one a long time ago in Ancient Egypt; that is until you get to
the 3rd century and Constantine and the emerging Roman Church. As far back
in time that you wish to look, from 2nd - 3rd century before the rise of
the Roman Empire and Constantine, all the way back to Ancient Egypt, we
find the same Divine truth and Divine spiritual concepts concerning "the
Christ" as taught by Egypt originally. This concept of "the
Christ within" remained in tact and unadulterated up until the 3rd
century when Rome will come along and "literalize" and "canalize"
this Christ and continues to do so today. Sadly the vast majority of 2.5
billion good people and professed Christians in the world today don't know
they are deceived and have not the slightest notion of the great need for
their personal study in these areas since being ignorantly and falsely
assured from their pulpits of their churches that they have the truth and
that they are the "light" to a darkened world when the opposite
is in ironically true.
No matter how far you
go back and the discovery of the Rosetta Stone has allowed us to go back
to the beginning of recorded time, Egypt's Christ was never a living
person and all later "copies" and "Christ-prototypes"
were never taught as if "literal-historical" until the 3rd
century. But the fact of this Christ's nonhistoricity
rises now out of the past that Christianity thought it had sealed in
oblivion forever this ancient truth concerning "the Christ" and "Egyptian
religion" by burning the libraries and books of the world along with
their devotees. This proven
nonhistoricity of "the Christ" strikes the death-knell of a
false and spurious religion called Roman and Protestant Christianity as it
is taught today. The Gospels' "life" of Jesus
turns out to be nothing but the garbled, distorted, confused, perverted,
warped, misrepresented, twisted, falsified, fragmentary and a plagiarized
copy of an Egyptian prototype of a "Karast"
who never lived, but was a purely a typological dramatic figure,
portraying as always the Divinity in man (the Descent of the Soul into the
flesh of mankind). The Egyptian Christ was always to be
understood only "allegorically" and never as if "literal-historical".
Matt 24:23-26 23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is
Christ, or there; believe it not. 24 For there shall arise false Christs,
and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that,
if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. 25 Behold, I have
told you before. 26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in
the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it
not. (KJV)
Answer for yourself: What has the
Rosetta Stone unlocked for us in restoring the Egyptian language and
religion? Many things, but my focus here is on the truth about the "Karast/Christ"
which we find throughout the Egyptian writings, Temples, and Pyramids
which, thanks to the Rosetta Stone, "speak to us again today".
We learn from deciphering the heiroglyphs that the coming of Christ,"
means the presence of "the Karast/Christ/Christos" in everyone
in everyone and not the literal return of the body of some presumed
historical Jew named "Jesus" back again to the earth. This
Christ is neither in the wilderness nor in any temple or church built by
man; for Christ is the
Divine Principle inside every human being. The "Son
of Mankind" is the adolescent of mankind’s own deeds, and the
fruit of their own spiritual work. There is no "end of the world,"
but the beginning of the age of enlightenment when the Christos is
activated in each and every one of us.
The "Christ principle," the awakened and glorified Spirit
of Truth, being universal and eternal, is the true Christos which cannot
be monopolized by any one person, even though religious leaders have
chosen to give themselves the title of the "Vicar of Christ." or
of the "Head" of that or another State-religion. The spirits of "Christos"
and "Christ" cannot be confined to any creed or sect because
that sect chooses to make itself exclusive or better than other.
The first key that one has to use to unravel the mystic name of
Christ is the key which unlocked the door to the ancient mysteries of the
Gnostics. Here again we can thank no only the Rosetta Stone and its
discovery but the African and Egyptian Gnostics and the wonderful
discovery of the Nag Hammadi Library just a mere 50 years ago which
brought this all to light and exposed this Roman lie and corruption of "the
Christ". The Gnosis supplanted by the Christianity were universal.
They taught the repetition of the primordial wisdom-religion which had
been inherited by all of mankind from its beginning and in its abstract
appearance, the Spirit of Christ (the divine Logos) was present in
humanity from the beginning.
The mystery of Christos—taught by the Ancient Spiritual Masters
and "anointed ones" since the beginning of time just happens to
be identical with that which from the first had been communicated
concerning "those who were worthy." We may learn from the Gospel
according to Luke, that the "worthy" were those who had been
initiated into the mysteries of the Gnosis and these deeper Spiritual
Truths that lay behind the simple "allegories" and "myths"
given to laymen and others who were "accounted worthy" to attain
that "resurrection from the dead."
In other words, they were the great adepts of whatever religion; and
the words apply to all those who, without being Initiates, strive and
succeed, through personal effort to live the life and to attain the
naturally ensuing spiritual illumination in blending their
personality--(the "Son") with (the "Father,") their
individual divine Spirit, the God within them.
This resurrection" can never be monopolized by anyone for it is
the spiritual birth-right of every human being endowed with soul and
spirit, whatever his religion may be. Such individual is a Christ-man. On
the other hand, those who choose to ignore the Christ (principle) within
themselves, must die nonbelievers— regardless of baptism, sacraments,
lip-prayers, and belief in dogmas.
For this to make sense we must bear in mind the original meaning
involved in the two terms Chrestos
and Christos.
The former means certainly more than merely "a good," and "excellent
man," while the latter was never applied to any one living man, but
to every Initiate at the moment of his second birth and resurrection.
He who finds Christos within himself and recognizes the latter as
his only "way," becomes a follower and an Apostle of Christ,
though he may have never been baptized, nor even have met a "Christian,"
yet alone call himself one.
The word Chrestos existed long before Christianity existed. It is
found used, from the fifth century B.C., by Herodotus, by Aischylus and
other classical Greek writers, the meaning of it being applied to both
things and persons. As St. Paul said," You may find Christos in your
inner self through knowledge, not faith.
The Christos is the
union of mankind with the divine principle in him. The
Golden Age begins with the Spirit of Truth (Christos). The name of
Christos was given to the solar gods who opened the gates of light and
that it was a Chrestos whom god spoke through. It might come as a shock to
you but the "real" Paul was a Gnostic, a founder of a new sect
of Gnosis which recognized, as all other Gnostic sects did, a "Christ-Spirit."
Gerald Massey connects the Greek Christos or Christ with the
Egyptian Karast/Karest, the "Mummy" of immortality," and
proves it thoroughly. He begins by saying that in Egyptian the "Word
of Truth" is Ma-Kheru, and that it is the title of Horus (the
prototype for all later "Christs" including "Jesus").
Thus as he shows, Horus preceded the "Christian Christ" as but
one of many Messengers of the Word of Truth, the Logos or the divine
nature in humanity.
In the same paper Gerald Massey writes as follows: The Gnosis had
three phases
- astronomical,
- spiritual, and
- doctrinal,
Massey goes on to say that all three phases can be identified with
the Christ of Egypt. In its astronomical aspect the constellation Orion is
called the Sahu or mummy. The soul of Horus was represented as rising from
the dead and ascending to Heaven; in particular in the stars of Orion.
Next, the mummy-image of Horus was the preserved one, the saved, therefore
a portrait of the Savior, as a type of immortality. This mummy-image of
Horus, "the Christ", was as a figure of a dead man, which, as
Plutarch and Herodotus tell us, was carried round at an Egyptian banquet,
when the guests were invited to look on it and eat and drink and be happy,
because, when they died,
they would become what the image symbolized—that is, they also would
be immortal! Here
is your belief in "life after death" and being "in
Christ/Karest/Karast".
This image of the Karest was bound up in a woven fabric
without a seam,
the proper vesture of the Christ! No matter what the length of the bandage
might be, and some of the mummy-swathes have been unwound that were 1,000
yards in length, the woven fabric was from beginning to end without a seam
just like the one mentioned in the New Testament for Jesus Christ.
Now, this seamless robe of the Egyptian Karest is a very tell-tale
type of the mystical Christ,
who becomes historic, carnalized, and literalized in the Roman Gospels as
the wearer of a coat made without a seam, which neither the Greek nor the
Hebrew fully explains, but which is explained by the Egyptian Ketu for the
woven fabric, and by the seamless robe or swathing without seam that was
made for eternal wear, and worn by the Mummy-Christ, the image of
immortality in the tombs of Egypt.
Unknown to most Christians Jesus is depicted in the New Testament
put to death in accordance with the instructions given for making the
Karest. Not a bone must be broken. The true Karest must be perfect in
every member. "This is he who comes out whole; whom men know not is
his name."
In the Gospels Jesus rises again with every limb intact, like the
perfectly-preserved Karest, to demonstrate the physical resurrection of
the mummy. But, in the Egyptian original, the mummy transforms. The
deceased says: "I am
spiritualized. I am become a soul. I rise as a God."
This transformation into the spiritual image, the Ka, has been omitted in
the Gospel.
This spelling of the name as Chrest or Christ in Latin is of utmost
importance, because it proves the identity with the Egyptian Karest or
Karust, the name of the Christ as the embalmed mummy, which was the image
of the resurrection in Egyptian tombs, the type of immortality, the
likeness of the Horus, who rose again and made the pathway out of the
sepulchre for those who were his disciples or followers.
This type of the
Karest or Mummy-Christ was duplicated in the Catacombs of Rome. No sign of
the supposed historic resurrection of Jesus has been found on any of the
early Christian monuments. But instead we find the scene
of Lazarus being raised from the dead. This is depicted over and over
again as the typical resurrection where there is no real one!
Answer for yourself: What is behind
this Lazarus story?
The scene is not exactly like the rising from the grave in the
Gospels. It is purely Egyptian, and Lazarus is an Egyptian mummy! Thus
Lazarus is the mummy-type of the resurrection; Lazarus is the Karest, who
was the Egyptian Christ, and who is reproduced by Gnostic art in the
Catacombs of Rome as a form of the Gnostic Christ, who was not and could
not become an historical character. Further, as the thing is Egyptian, the
name of Lazarus is derived from the Egyptian language. If so, "Laz"
(equal to Ras) means "to be raised up", while "aru" is
the name of the mummy. In
Greek terminology this becomes Lazarus. In the course of
humanizing the myth of the typical representation of the resurrection
found in the tombs of Rome and Egypt evolves the story of Lazarus being
raised from the dead. This Karest type of the Christ in the Catacombs is
not limited to Lazarus.
By means of the Karest type the Christ and the Christians can both
be traced in the ancient tombs of Egypt. The mummy was made in this
likeness of the Christ. It was the Christ by name, identical with the
Chrestoi of the Greek Inscriptions. Thus the honored dead, who rose again
as the followers of Horus-Makheru, the Word of Truth, are Christians. On
the Egyptian monuments "Ma-Kheru" is the term that is always
applied to the faithful for the Christ.
The fact that the physical Church was founded by Constantine, and
that it was a part of his decree "that the venerable day of the Sun
should be the day for the worship of Jesus Christ as Sun-day,"
indicates that they knew that the allegory was based upon the zodiac for
the Puranas (the richest collection of mythology in the world which has
been passed down orally since the time of Krishna) and the Bible are full
of solar and astronomical metaphors.
Thus "Christos," under whatever name, means more than
Karest, a mummy, or even the "anointed" and the chosen ones of
the Church. Avatars, who lived and died for humanity, have existed in many
and all the ages, and many holy men in ancient times who bore the surname
or title of Chrestos before Jesus of Nazareth was born. Therefore the
example of the New Testament Jesus was like Socrates, like Theodorus, and
so many others surnamed Christos, i.e., the "good, the excellent,"
the gentle, and the holy Initiate, who showed the "way" to the
Christos life, and thus models themselves of "the Way" of
Godliness in the world and in the hearts of their enthusiastic followers.
The Roman Church has unsuccessfully tried to eliminate all signs of the
other Christoi, who have appeared to them as rivals of their Man-God.
To be considered a good Christian as defined by "the Church"
one has to affirm and show faith in the dogmas interpreted by the Church;
then we are free to live on principles contrary to those expressed in the
Sermon on the Mount. How sad. "Faith is the key of Christendom,"
saith Chaucer, and the penalty for lacking it is as clearly stated as
words can make it, in St. Mark’s Gospel, Chapter XV1 verse 16:
"He that believeth and is
baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned."
But the "Christ Within" teaches otherwise. In
closing let it be said that it is difficult for anyone who has studied
comparative myths and religions and compared them to the Bible we have
today to see it as anything but a watered down version of the Wisdom
Religion of ancient Mystery Schools.
Answer for yourself: And who do we owe
for this revelation of "the Christ Within"? Well, we can thank
1799 by Napoleon's army in 1799 for preparing the world for the truth
about "the Christ" which comes to us from a black stone which
unlocked the secrets of the Egyptian Temple walls and Pyramids and in go
doing restoring to the world the Ancient Divine Truths from God given
mankind which had been destroyed and purposely hidden from the world by
the devious agendas and forgeries of Rome in their Christian Bible which
furthered their political ambitions.
With this one revelation of lost truth and lost light, namely, that
as Christians and followers of the Christ, we have been once again given
the lost the "keys" necessary to understanding the "Jesus
Story" as it has been handed down for thousands and thousands of
years before Rome's reinterpretation of it. Given this and its proper
understanding the structure of a "literal-historical Christianity"
tumbles to the ground. This ruse and deception must come to an end and
today finally it can be replaced by a purely spiritual Christianity since
the facts and archeological truths are surfacing daily; and all thanks to
a black rock. The Dark Ages can be brought to their dismal end at last and
this only because some trench-digger hit a buried treasure and old back
rock that has laid buried for thousands of years waiting for the saying of
"the Christ" to be fulfilled:"the
rocks will cry out" and they have. Have you heard
them?
