For Those Who Want To Know.!
In the fourth century A.D. the Roman emperor Constantine formed a council of historians and scholars. What would later be known as the Council of Nice Fulfilled the directive of its charter and recommended that at least 25 documents be modified or removed from the collection of texts. The committee found many of the works under consideration to be redundant, with overlapping stories and repeated parables. Other manuscripts were so abstract and in some cases so mystical that they were believed to be beyond any practical value. Additionally, another twenty supporting documents were removed, held in reserve for privilege researchers and select scholars. The remaining books were condensed and rearranged, to give them greater meaning and make them more accessible to the common reader. Each of these decisions contributed to further confusing the mystery of our purpose, possibilities, and relationship to one another. Following the accomplishment of their task, the council produced a single document in A.D. 325. The result of their labor remains with us as perhaps one of the most controversial texts of sacred history. It is known today as the Holy Bible.
Five hundred years before the birth of Christ a mysterious groups of scholars formed communities to honor the ancient teachings that began before history as we know it. They were known as the Essenes, Nazarenes, and Ebionites. The Roman and Jewish scholars referred to the Essenes as a race by themselves. and their traditions are found in ancient writings such as the Sumerian glyphs, dating to 4000 B.C. Elements of nearly every major world belief system existing today may be traced back to this major world belief system existing today by the lineage of wisdom, including those of China, Tibet, Egypt, India, Palestine, Greece, and the American Southwest, also, the Freemasons, Gnostic's, Christians, and Kabalist. They were known as the "Elect, and the Chosen Ones."
The Vatican manuscripts, held for ever 1,500 years, were key in the documents or the scrolls found in the Dead Sea Scrolls. Both in Nag Hammadi and Qumran...It was confirmed that the scriptures in the Holy Bible were infact edited from the original scrolls. whole books such as Isaiah held many different views that were edited out of the cannon. Teachings such as vegetarian, reincarnation, Father in Heaven and Mother Earth, we are all connected to each other and to all living things, For the spirit of the Son of Man was created from the spirit of the Heavenly Father, and his body from the body of the Earthy Mother. Our Heavenly Father is the masculine and the Mother Earth is our Feminine and we are composed of both.
