The Greatest Story Ever Told
“They turned an awakened teacher into a domesticated saviour”
Growing up, I never questioned God, nor sought God. I never wanted to go to Mass unless it was to get out of school. I never prayed nor read the Bible. I never had an interest, and I couldn't wrap my head around the fact that we had a God/Creator before the creation of “Religion,” or why we needed something to represent this omni-being.
That changed when I began to notice that the teachings of Christ and the Roman Catholic Church never aligned. Whenever I did attend Mass, it was always “Paul this,” “Paul that” all within the perception of Paul. Yet he only encountered Yeshua/Jesus after his resurrection; he never knew or had any interaction with him before he was placed on the cross. I’m more interested in the information and the life Yeshua lived that got him on the cross in the first place.
You may ask, 'Who is Yeshua?' Well If a man walked the earth performing healing miracles, his name was Yeshua, not Jesus. The letter J wasn't introduced into the Latin alphabet until the 16th century. You may ask why it matters—well, it's the truth. It all comes down to truth and spoken will-power. If a man was this omni-being, surely the actual name that was spoken during those times carries all the true weight and power. When we call on Jesus today, who do we truly call upon? Whereas, if you begin to chant Yeshua, you begin to speak the tongue that was used in those biblical times..
After school, I looked more into history and our past—not the Boston Tea Party, but real history as in our ancestors: Latin, Hebrew, the Pyramids, the Celts, Paganism, Gnosticism, and Sumerian texts, etc. What was our foundation built on top of?
I needed a more in-depth research of history that wasn't filtered or spoon fed through school books.
Syncretism
When I first came across the word "syncretism," it opened up a whole new realm of understanding regarding how narrow-minded and self-centered I was growing up, as well as the lack of real teaching that went on within schools. If only I were able to pass this vocabulary on to my younger self, how different I would be today.
The religion we know as Christianity is itself a form of syncretism. It takes aspects of different religions and cultures and blends them into its own belief system. Virtually all religious traditions exhibit syncretism over time; from a historical and sociological standpoint, no major religion developed in total isolation.
Keeping this in mind, you can explore the different traditions and cultures that resonate with you the most and pick your fruits from them—you don't have to restrict yourself to one major religion. Growing up in Ireland, I held the belief that I had to pick something and stick with it for the long run. It is an environmental reinforcement that you carry with you from childhood. But as you transcend on your journey and awaken to the truth within, you feel foolish for how you've been boxed into an old, systematic belief system.
This is the Matrix: coming to understand that there was never a box, nor a spoon. It is all within the mind. Yet, we attach ourselves so easily to the physical world—to words, objects, situations, wars, money, and jobs. All of which are ultimately out of our control.
The Book of Enoch/Hanock
Origional Ethiopian Bible contained 81 while the Roman Catholic Bible contained 73
Rejected by Rome:
1 Enoch (The Book of Enoch/Hanok)
The Book of Jubilees
1, 2, and 3 Meqabyan
The 8 Books of Apostolic Order
The importance of the book of Enoch; Enoch was the first man to ascend into heavan. First man to be transformed into angelic form by God and given the name “Metatron” or “Lesser Yahweh” (Little God),
another is the “Prince of Presence”
He’s been given over 70 different names. In old bibical times he was given many names as he great power held and indiviuals were known to call upon the angels to use for their own deeds giving him multipe names was a way to throw people off and deceive them from calling upon this great celestial scribe.
He holds many attributes similar to Thoth, egyptian detity. When the Greeks conquered Egypt, they looked at the Egyptian deity and started matching gods with similar traits—a process called syncretism. Because both Thoth and Hermes were the masters of language, writing, magic, and guiding souls, they completely fused them together.
Ultimately, both traditions use sacred geometry to show that reality is not random; it is a highly organized, coherent field of energy held together by precise mathematical harmonies.
“Stillness reveals what distraction works hard to hide.”
From my understanding and many conversations with others who were daily readers of the Bible, it is a big book of metaphors—not meant to be read as a literal book or story. It is an ancient text that teaches one the way to a higher state of consciousness through metaphors. “His words were not rules, they were keys.
Once I changed my perspective, it made a lot of sense.
The Roman Empire never collapsed; they simply reformed into the Catholic Church. They saw the power the Word of God had on people and how they bowed to it, and used it to create their wealth and power. They weaponized hell to create fear among the people, threatening that God would reject them if they didn't pay the tithe, and taught people to believe God was outside of themselves. Even to this very day, people are seeking validation and answers outside themselves.
Luke 17:20-21 TLV — 20 Now when Yeshua was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, He answered them and said, “The kingdom of God does not come with signs to be seen. 21 Nor will they say, ‘Look, here!’ or ‘There!’ For behold, the kingdom of God is in your midst.”
“They turned an awakened teacher into a domesticated saviour.”
You may ask why metaphors through a story?
Back in the ancient times, information on raising awareness/consciousness was deemed forbidden by the “gods” and was punishmeant by death. So they created a story not known by the tounge of the “gods” to hid the information. The Bible isnt something you have to live by 24/7, its a text that teaches if we want to communion with God/Higher Self that these are the steps to do so.
