Straight out of Christianity

[Mider2009]

Have you thought of either

one: studying the mystical aspects of Christianity? The Works of Dion Fortune are a good Primer

or looking at Kabbalah (there’s a Christian version that Fortune knew and the Freemasons and the Jewish one which is highly misunderstood today)

Ill do both thanks

There is much learning by repeated experience over many lives. If you can forgive yourself for having to learn, you will naturally rise above the subplanes on which nasty entities operate. Then there will be no hell for you.

The soul (solar angel) always exists far above such levels. It is the personality that can get stuck in heaviness

Thank you

Welcome Dashae,

Glad to hear of your early successes! When you do your visualizations do you add elements of the fantasy series you love?

I found that doing so really boosted my ability to get into "The Zone" early on.

No actually I haven't but I will try

Well the trinity of course. The father son and holy spirit. Also the dates for the events. These fall in line with pagan or early religious events. Granted the Romans were trying to incorporate it into a pagan society and easy transition was the best for everyone. But everyone looking at christinanity as its own story, it took several stories before. Example. Adam and Eve, Noah's ark and Jonah and the whale were all tales before in the bible. They just transferred them to the Bible. I think many of them have some truths to the story from many generations earlier. Sorry I'll add more info when I'm not on mobile.

Sorry, what specific pagan religion did the trinity copy and how. I thought it was pretty clear that the trinity in Christianity originated from the numerous mentions of the trinity in Ancient Jewish Books? Additionally specifically what culture or religion did Christianity copy Adam and Eve, Noah's ark and Jonah. Nearly every culture has a flood narrative for example that can be compared to Noah's Ark. I need something a little more specific to look into.

What dates were copied from the Romans? Additionally is your argument that Christianity was invented by the Romans or that it stole many traditions from it?

Christianity did adopt many practices from other cultures...praying for our dead, purgatory, hell though they made it eternal, the Messiah, baptism which is Mikvah in Judaism

Praying for the dead seems very vague, and I'm not arguing that Judiasm wasn't a predecessor to Christianity, because I believe it is. I just don't see a lot of evidence that Christianity outright copied pagan religions.

As for purgatory, I do not see a lot of Scripture to base it and it has been estimated that it originated in the middle ages, likely popularized by Dante, but that is my own subjective opinion

As far as hell goes, it did go under a transformation from the Jewish Sheol, to the Christian version of hell, although a large part of that was the purpose of it changed after the resurrection of Jesus.

Most early religions were not pagan (peasant) but rather focused on cities and their gods.

An obvious trinity is Osiris/Asar Isis/Ast and Horus/Heru

Another is Anu, Enlil and Enki

How about Shiva, Vishnu and Brahma

No doubt you can find many others

There’s a trinity in Jewish books?

Not really trying to bash of course

but many cultures believe in a world flood, virgin births, including Judaism.

Catholics and modern Jews often pray for the dead and to dead Saints.

theres no hell in scripture but mention of a new world, the concept of hell was later developed

While were all on the myth train, could it be that the events occurred, only that that tribe at the time survived?
Seems the only reason for the all too convenient truth of myths.

 

[DiLoco_DelEted]

There is also the convenient truth of Biblical Archaeology recovering things like Noahs Ark. Or fragments of it.

Also Jerusalem was not a city until long after the alleged dates of the New Testament.

Even so, Salem is the name of a Phoenician god - also called Shalim

I'll post more tonight after work. Tougher to type a ton on mobile. @Lemongrass00 and I'll start a new thread we hijacked Alyssa introduction. I apologize to her. @Dashae

I hope everyone's day will be a good one.
