Chapter 9
The foundation and birth of
“Christianity”
|
Introduction
The true beginning of the religion known today as
Christianity is shrouded in secular and pagan thought and tradition. The
historical beginnings of this religion is all but “hidden” and kept silent in
today’s churches. When we do a little digging… it is understandably so. The
slightest research into the origins of Christianity will literally destroy your
faith in it. So I guess to most Christians, “Ignorance is bliss”! However, in
this case, it is eternal destruction. We see below this is the case as we are
destroyed by the lack on knowledge and rejected by Yahuah for abolishing His
Law.
Hosea 4:6
my people are destroyed from lack
of knowledge. "Because you have rejected knowledge, I also reject you as
my priests; because you have ignored the law of your God, I also will ignore
your children.”
All we need to know concerning the “new” religion that
evolved at the hands of the Roman Emperor Constantine formalized at the Council
of Nicaea we can learn from early scholars of the day and Catholic Church documents
that live on historically. These all openly admit that the “religion” was
neither “new” nor “strange” to the pagans of their day and that the only thing
“new” about it was the name of the new “god” they created. This new god’s name
was Jesus H. Christ or I.H.S in Latin. So we are going to take a long hard
look at this name. The Council of Nicaea was held around 300 AD and writers of
that era admit what should now be obvious to the reader of this book, if not it
will be soon enough:
§
Eusebius of Caesarea (circa 283-371 CE) wrote: "The
religion of Jesus Christ is neither new nor strange."
§
St. Augustine of Hippo (354-430 CE) wrote: "This,
in our day, is the Christian religion, not as having been unknown in former
times, but as having recently received that name."
Yes, Christianity was not new to the pagans and as St.
Augustine pointed out it has been known all the way back to Babylon and only
recently called “Christianity”. Every Christian Church today from the Roman
Catholic Church to every last Protestant denomination expresses its faith in
what is called The Nicene Creed. This is the resulting creed
that came out of the first council at Nicaea where Christianity and its
fundamental doctrines of sun worship were formulated by Constantine to unite
his kingdom through syncretism.
Constantine openly worshipped a pagan sun deity named Mithra
or Apollo who was simply another name for Tammuz or Baal the sungod.
Constantine believed the Hebrew Messiah Yahusha was yet another incarnation of
this second member of the Babylonian Trinity who is Tammuz. At the council in
Nicaea Constantine set out to formulate a religion that all pagans and all
those who had newly found faith in Yahusha could accept if he could twist the
scriptures to conform to his sun worship. Since Constantine believed Yahusha
to be an incarnation of Tammuz, he had no problem replacing the Holy
Days/Sabbaths/Feasts of Yahuah with those of his god Tammuz/Apollo/Mitha.
After all, to Constantine, Yahusha was the latest incarnation of them all and
therefore he kept the Babylonian pagan days of worship. And of course, the
re-incarnated “Tammuz” would have abolished the Sabbath/Holy Days of Yahuah and
established those of Sunday/Easter/Christmas in his image. This is what
Constantine believed and he was “Emperor” and what Constantine believed defined
his empire.
Let us take a close look at Flavius Constantinius who ruled
Rome and was literally “the author” of what today we call Christianity. Make
no mistake, the religion of Christianity was not authored by the Jewish Messiah
Yahusha as it has no relationship to the Hebrew Faith held by Adam, Noah,
Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Joshua, David, Solomon, Yahusha, even the Apostle
Paul, or any of the disciples or apostles or early church in Jerusalem. In
fact, Constantine’s religion of Christianity is a carbon copy of The Mystery
Religion of Babylon… sun worship.
An
ancient religion reborn with a “new” god
Constantine was the High Priest of the sungod Sol Invictus
(invincible sun) and his coins remained inscribed “Sol Invicto Comiti” or
“committed to the unconquered/invincible sun” to the day he died.
From Wikipedia entry “Sol Invictus”. Constantine’s coin depicting Sol
Invictus
Constantine decided to call an official Roman (Rome was a
pagan empire) council at Nicaea which is now considered the first “Christian
Council” in an attempt to standardize all religions in his empire. There were
literally hundreds of “gods” worshipped throughout the empire and it was cause
of constant division and conflict. So a council of pagan priests were
convened.
Who participated and what exactly was discussed in this
council is somewhat unclear because Constantine burned all the evidence. However,
we know exactly what resulted from this council as we will see. It
is hard to know what took place behind close doors because all
documentation of this blasphemous council was literally destroyed by
Constantine as he had all the documents burned to hide the abomination
that transpired. A far cry from how Yahuah documented every step of the
Truth found in the Torah for all to know and read throughout history.
The
Catholic Encyclopedia admits the truth behind Christianity
The “lie” Christianity is based on was carefully and totally
destroyed to hide its origin. What we do know is openly found in the Catholic
Encyclopedia:
“It was British-born
Flavius Constantinus (Constantine, originally Custennyn or Custennin) (272-337)
who authorised the compilation of the writings now called the New Testament.
After the death of his father in 306, Constantine became King of Britain, Gaul
and Spain, and then, after a series of victorious battles, Emperor of the Roman
Empire. Christian historians give little or no hint of the turmoil of the
times and suspend Constantine in the air, free of all human events happening
around him.
In truth, one of
Constantine's main problems was the uncontrollable disorder amongst presbyters
and their belief in numerous gods. The majority of modern-day Christian
writers suppress the truth about the development of their religion and conceal
Constantine's efforts to curb the disreputable character of the presbyters who
are now called "Church Fathers". (Catholic Encyclopedia,
Farley ed., vol. xiv, pp. 370-1).
There it is, plain admission from the “source of
Christianity” the Catholic Church that the very “Church Fathers” invited to the
Council of Nicaea were not men of Yahuah but disreputable pagan priests
or “presbyters” who worshipped many different gods. So “who were” these
preachers running around the Roman Empire dreaming up all kinds of various
“gods” to worship that today’s Christian Church considers “fathers of their
faith”? Below is how they were described…
"...the most
rustic fellows, teaching strange paradoxes. They openly declared that none but
the ignorant was fit to hear their discourses ... they never appeared in the
circles of the wiser and better sort, but always took care to intrude
themselves among the ignorant and uncultured, rambling around to play tricks at
fairs and markets ... they lard their lean books with the fat of old fables ...
and still the less do they understand ... and they write nonsense on vellum ...
and still be doing, never done." (Contra
Celsum ["Against Celsus"], Origen of Alexandria, c. 251, Bk I, p.
lxvii, Bk III, p. xliv, passim)
These pagan “preachers” invited to formulate the new
religion at the Council of Nicaea were “rustic fellows teaching strange
paradoxes” to the ignorant uncultured fools of that day at pagan fairs and
markets in Rome. These men were not the mighty men of God and descendants of
Abraham/Isaac/Jacob. No, these men literally created “Christianity” from “fat
old fables”. I was certainly never made aware of any of this in my 20
years in the Christian Church! I was taught to blindly pledge allegiance to…
The Nicaean Creed, no less, the abominable creed that came
from these babbling fools. Little did I know (until I decided to question it
and test it) that this creed was a complete denial of Yahuah and His Truth
created literally by pagan “idiots” or “Christians” as they came to be known.
Constantine’s
dilemma
Let’s look at exactly what was actually going on in the
Roman Empire under Constantine and we find it openly admitted that the
conversion and baptism of Constantine was nothing more than simply a
legend. In reality he was a sun worshipping Emperor/High Priest with a
very real political problem that had to be dealt with.
“Clusters of presbyters had
developed "many gods and many lords" (1 Cor. 8:5) and numerous
religious sects existed, each with differing doctrines (Gal. 1:6). Presbyterial
(pagan) groups clashed over attributes of their various gods and "altar
was set against altar" in competing for an audience”… (Optatus
of Milevis, 1:15, 19, early fourth century).
From Constantine's point of
view, there were several factions that needed satisfying, and he set out to
develop an all-embracing religion during a period of irreverent confusion. In
an age of crass ignorance, with nine-tenths of the peoples of Europe
illiterate, stabilizing religious splinter groups was only one of Constantine's
problems. The smooth generalization, which so many historians are content to
repeat, that Constantine "embraced the Christian religion" and subsequently
granted "official toleration", is "contrary to historical
fact" and should be erased from our literature forever… (Catholic
Encyclopedia, Pecci ed., vol. iii, p. 299, passim).
So our contention that Constantine embraced the Jewish
Messiah is not true and should be totally erased from our minds. Simply put,
there was no Christian religion at Constantine's time, and the Church
acknowledges that the tale of his "conversion" and
"baptism" are "entirely legendary" and never happened at
all. (Catholic Encyclopedia, Farley ed., vol. xiv, pp. 370-1).
Constantine "never acquired a solid theological
knowledge" and "depended heavily on his advisers in religious
questions" (Catholic Encyclopedia, New Edition, vol. xii, p. 576,
passim). According to Eusebeius (260-339), Constantine noted that among
the presbyterian (pagan) factions "strife had grown so serious, vigorous
action was necessary to establish a more religious state", but he could
not bring about a settlement between rival god factions (Life of Constantine,
op. cit., pp. 26-8). His advisers warned him that the presbyters' pagan
religions were "destitute of foundation" and needed official
stabilization. Constantine saw in this confused system of fragmented dogmas
the opportunity to create a new and combined State religion, neutral in
concept, and to protect it by law. Then ensure it through forced
conversation and death for disobedience. |
When he conquered the East in 324 he sent his Spanish
religious adviser, Osius of Córdoba, to Alexandria with letters to several
pagan bishops exhorting them to make peace among themselves. The mission failed
and Constantine, probably at the suggestion of Osius, then issued a decree
commanding all pagan presbyters (pagan priests) and their subordinates "be
mounted on asses, mules and horses belonging to the public, and (forced to)
travel to the city of Nicaea" in the Roman province of Bithynia in
Asia Minor.
The
Council of Nicaea a pagan council!
After these pagan priests were commanded to “mount asses
and come to Nicaea” they were instructed to bring with them the testimonies
they orated to the rabble (uneducated pagan masses), "bound in
leather" for protection during the long journey, and surrender them to
Constantine upon arrival in Nicaea (The Catholic Dictionary, Addis and
Arnold, 1917, "Council of Nicaea" entry). Their writings
totaled "in all, two thousand two hundred and thirty-one scrolls and
legendary tales of gods and saviors, together with a record of the doctrines
orated by them" (Life of Constantine, op. cit., vol. ii, p. 73;
N&PNF, op. cit., vol. i, p. 518). Of course, we don’t have them
now to compare to Yahuah’s Truth, these pagan writing which were the foundation
of Christianity were carefully and totally destroyed after the Council of
Nicaea… for obvious reasons.
Now the “foundation of Christianity” and how
this massive lie started begins to come into focus. It was created at The
Council of Nicaea founded not on The Torah and Messiah but rather “two thousand
two hundred and thirty one scrolls and legendary tales of literally hundreds of
gods and savious and pagan doctrines”. This is what Constantine set out to
standardize into one generic neutral religion that they all could
agree upon! A syncretic religion was born! That resulting religion was named
“Christianity” and the god of this new religion was named Hesus Horus Krishna
later to be known in English as… Jesus (Hesus) H. (Horus) Christ
(Krishna). This is historical fact.
I go into great detail concerning this name of the False
Messiah later in this book. In truth, history has proven that four years prior
to the Council of Nicaea Constantine was initiated into the Cult of
Sol Invictus; the sun worshipping religion that evolved out of
Babylon. That was the “conversion” that truly happened to Constantine he was
never converted as a follower of Yahusha… ever. That is why he was bowing down
facing East worshipping the sun in the first place and seeing the Cross of
Tammuz (if that even really happened at all because it was never documented by
a “Legend” to placate the ignorant masses).
What we do know, is the religion that came out of the
Council of Nicaea was a carbon copy of what Constantine already
believed and anyone that did not bow down to the new “god” he created was
executed in the inquisition. All the pagans surrendered to this new
religion while all the true sons of Yahuah were executed or went into hiding
leaving only “Christianity” in the Roman Empire by law. This is exactly what
the Prophets of Yahuah said would happen!
