Rediscovering Jesus In 1945, Egyptian farmers dug up a clay jar filled with ancient Coptic manuscripts. Among them was the Gospel of Thomas, a collection of Jesus' sayings, some familiar to us, some new, all with a fresh slant to their implications. In The Hidden Words of the Living Jesus, George Breed casts the light of his spiritual wit over these mysterious sayings. As simply conversational as it is deeply provocative, his commentary invites us to journey more deeply into the spiritual realm, accompanied always by the living Jesus.

While God allows temptation, he does not perpetrate it, unless it is not an evil temptation. A good temptation from God, which also means "testing and trials", might be the prompting of a Christian to help a person or persons in need. They may or may not do that thing that will help them and the Christian will lose rewards at The "Judgement Seat of Christ" (not to be confused with "The Great White Throne Judgement" for the unsaved). Part of Jesus' prayer he taught to the disciples was - "And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from the evil one."

This volume contains a novelized version of the Asarian Resurrection myth that is based on the actual scriptures presented in the Book Asarian Religion (old name –Resurrecting Osiris).

Here are some of the most important questions Avi addresses in this book: Who was Jesus and what was his actual message? Who was Mary Magdalene, and why is she one of the most despised and vilified women in the...

For the most part forgotten, they were “the other” prophets, miracle workers, and messiahs - in some cases acclaimed as kings – and they were certainly contemporaries of Jesus of Nazareth. The New Testament does not deny the existence of such characters; in fact, it gives subtle but unequivocal clues to their presence. Learn about their existence in this audiobook.

The enduring question has been: "Where did Cain get his wife?" The churches have not given an acceptable answer to this question. Their inability to answer this question creates great doubt as to the accuracy of the Bible. More and more Christians are giving up on defending the Bible. It is vitally important for Christians to be able to answer this question because it relates to defending the fact that all humans are descendants of Adam and Eve, and only their descendants can be saved. Cain's wife has been talked about in countries all over the world for hundreds of years.

These "Fourteen Lessons" are an introduction to some of the most important recorded wisdoms of our time. Embers of this sacred knowledge can faintly be seen through the veils of almost every religion, including the new age movement. Each doctrine seems to have a piece of this grail, but none contain it in its entirety.

I thought it important to put this before the introduction.Dated 27th Jan 2012. 2 Peter 3:8, which states that "one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day." This ratio was tied to the six days of creation in the book of Genesis and it is misunderstood. You will now be able to understand this riddle when you have read my book!! Near death experience, reincarnation, revealed hidden knowledge are that which enfolded and is the basis of my truly enlightening book. I was not, initially, an author so writing this book has been a daunting task but a task I felt ...

A great event occurred approximately 2000 years ago. It was the birth of Jesus Christ and the rise of a new religion called Christianity. Jews had been persecuted before that event; and that persecution even increased with the birth of Jesus; since many considered Him the Messiah. This was in conflict with the following of many pagan gods and the Roman Emperor at that time. This new ideology could not be tolerated. That persecution continued another 350 years until Emperor Constantine created the acceptance and adoption of Christianity into Rome’s religions. Rome protected Christianity ...

Ancient Mesopotamian religion continues to captivate people for many of the same reasons today's best known religions and their histories fascinate people. The religion practiced by the Ancient Mesopotamians provides a certain mix between the mundane and the surreal, and at the same time aspects of it are both familiar and bizarre to people today. Some find themselves drawn to it based on its preeminent position in religious history as the oldest documented religion in the world.

We have been conditioned by so many ideas around us that the measure of intelligence is material gain. Well, this book is a far cry from that. Learning from the examples of the ancient sages from among an ingenious civilization located in the Fertile Crescent of Mesopotamia, we will learn that true intelligence is not a matter of power, self-gain, and modern achievements.

From my books from the Translating the Hieroglyphic Vignettes series, I demonstrate how to translate the Egyptian illustrations containing deities. I pointed out that this was how Joseph Smith translated his Book of Abraham text. And I pointed out that Joseph Smith's translation was not complete. I therefore make a more complete textual translation of the facsimiles and other vignettes from the Book of Breathings and maybe even the Book of the Dead papyri.
