Book cover

Introduction

This book explores the beginning of the religion, the surroundings, and the man in the middle of all of it, Jesus. The details that are given in the book are basic and common, we did not find any new discoveries.

Summary of content

Dead Sea scrolls are used to give some early background on the teachings of Jesus. It is also stated that these theachings were present 50 years before his birth by a sect called the Essene. This sect is never mentioned in the Bible. The books show how Christian thought was formed by Romans and later by the teachings of Paul. Jesus is addressed as Rabbi J in the book.

Analysis

Q. What is the Church?

A. Page 9. It is easier to explain what the Church is not. The Church is not sacrosanct nor untouchable. It is a dynamic organism, constantly changing like a mutating virus. The only reason Christianity has survived is that it kept up with the changing times, popular demands, and fashion. The only one flaw with that concept is that Christianity has no origin. Jesus never came with any new religion, he even said so. His main purpose was to reform the already corrupt religion existing with people who called themselves Jews. The teachings of the master does not exist, and they have been replaced, soon after his disappearance, by self-proclaimed apostles such as Paul and others imitating him in his letters.

Q. What is Paul’s title?

A. Page 11. This man, who changed his name to better fit the crowd he was entertaining, was called the first falsifier of Christianity. He brought the Jewish book to the Greek sphere of culture and so inevitably distorted it. There was nothing of the original message left after Paul had done his work. The discovery of Dead Sea scrolls do show some aspects of the original message.

Q. What exactly do we know of Rabbi J?

A. Page 13. Everything we know currently about Rabbi J, we know through intermediaries. During his life he never instructed anyone to jot down a single spoken word from him. He himself was an educated man, who could read and write, and he also never wrote anything.

It is quite strange that a man has a message for all the world and all the coming generations and he never thought to preserve his law or commands. He was quite aware of Moses and the commandments, and the scrolls he read, still not a word he wrote himself with his hand.

Q. Where are Christians focused?

A. Page 13. They are focused on the person and not his acts or actions. But, when his face no longer holds the center of stage, we learn more about him. The less we look at him, the better we can get to know him; the hazier the Rabbis face, the clearer his life.

Q. Who was Rabbi J?

A. Page 15,16. He was a Palestinian Jew, and probably he did not wash as often as we consider necessary nowadays.

He spoke Aramaic, a language that is no longer spoken today. He did not speak Hebrew, Latin, Greek, or English. He lived in a barren wilderness where water was scarce. He did not worship himself but rather he worshiped an invisible God. Anyone who grows up in the Christian West will have an impossibility of understanding this man. The main reason for this is that Rabbi J.’s life has passed through two filters: 1) First filter made people obscure his life from the very beginning for their own special reasons, 2) Since there was no original or first-hand writings, it was open season to create new stories.

The fact of the matter is that Rabbi J was labeled a terrorist and was summarily executed up a pole or tree in his underwear according to the holy book of Christians. No one came to his rescue.

Q. Who wrote the stories about Rabbi J?

A. Page 17,18. The people who wrote almost all the stories about Rabbi J were Non Jews. This made it very difficult for them to understand very simple Jewish customs. For instance: “And the third day there was a marriage in Cane of Galilee”, [John 2:1-2]. What happened first and second day? Apparently intelligible words. Since, they were embarrassed by everyone questioning, they removed the “third day” from new translations. If you ask any Christian theologian, they will give you the answer of third day resurrection, since Rabbi J turned water into wine on the that third day at the wedding. Jews answer this by saying that third day is Tuesday, because Jewish week starts with Sunday and ends on the seventh day, the Sabbath. The individual days have no names and Sabbath just means day of rest. That is the simple answer to the third day but the Christians make up false stories due to their ignorance of the Jewish customs and culture.

Q. What do the Christians have?

A. Page 18. Everything they have is in Greek, which was not the language of Rabbi J. Nothing was written in the language of Rabbi J.

Q. Why do the disciples never understand the parables of Rabbi J?

A. Page 20. At first, it looks like as if Rabbi J. had the misfortune to choose followers who were rather simpleminded. This is a stylistic trick used by the evangelists to give Rabbi J. a chance to explain. Rabbi J. Also says that the parables are only for the disciples and no one else is to understand, [Matt 13:10-13, 16].

Q. What do Christians say was the doctrine of Rabbi J?

A. Page 21. The doctrine of love rather than the law. But, if love was all he was teaching then why make a mystery about it? Because of love, Rabbi J. told parables and kept the people guessing what it all meant? Every religion teaches love, and it doesn’t keep it a secret. The main aspect of any religion is not love, but laws and rules. The law is actually what matters in life.

Q. Are there any contemporary descriptions of Rabbi J.?

A. Page 23. No. Flavius Josephus, who wrote a detailed history of the Jewish people in the first century _C.E, did not know him. The only sentence in Josephus, “J., who was called Messiah, is worshipped by a community in Jerusalem,” is not by him, but is a later addition, and the Roman historian Tactitus, who is the only profane source to mention the Jew J., merely writes in explanation of the name “Christiani”: “Christus, from whom their name comes, was condemned to death by the Procurator Pontius Pilate in the reign of Emperor Tiberius.”

Q. What are the three sources of information about Rabbi J?

A. Page 23, 24. One source is the epistles of Paul, who never saw or heard Rabbi J. The second consists of a no longer extant original text called the Q gospel. The gospel of “Q” gets its title from the German word quelle which means “source.” The whole idea of a Q gospel is based on the concept that the Synoptic Gospels (Matthew, Mark, and Luke) are so similar that they must have copied from each other and/or another source. The third source is yet another gospel according to John, which is based on a quite different tradition. All four gospels appeared a generation after Rabbi J.’s departure and were written and edited by people who were demonstrably not eyewitnesses, but secondhand reporters. These accounts all have frequent contradictions and revisions to keep the text up to date by their contemporary standards and “improved” them. For example the last words of Rabbi J, in Mark: “My god, my god, why hast thou forsaken me?”, in Luke: “Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit”, and in John: “It is finished.”

Q. Is Rabbi J. prince of peace?

A. Page 25,26,27. No. When the Roman soldiers came to arrest Rabbi J. “with swords and staves,” and the aggressive Peter promptly chopped off Malchus’s ear, we accept it as a bit of convincing realism. But how did Peter, the disciple, get hold of a sword in the first place? He got it from the instructions of Rabbi J. the prince of peace who, according to Christians only preached love. He said: “Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword,” [Matt 10:34]. He said: “Let them who had no sword, let him sell his garments and buy one,”[Luke 22:35-36].

Rabbi J. was nothing more than a political rebel against the Roman occupation. At first, he tried peaceful means and soon realized that it will not work. After this he was convinced that the sword was the only answer. He entered Jerusalem with a small armed force to purge the temple, but in reality it was an occupation of the temple. Afterward he had to flee and spend the night outside the walls of Jerusalem. This is where he was arrested and politically charged by the Romans for calling himself the King of the Jews.

We even see this today by the USA, which is nothing more than a modern Roman Empire, killing people because they declare themselves as a leader. Osama bin-laden and Anwar al-Awlaki, let’s just take these two people from a million others, they started just like Jesus as peaceful people, but that did not work to rid their lands of Roman occupation. Thus, when they adopted the sword, just like Rabbi J, they were summarily killed, exactly like Jesus. World has not changed much at all, the only difference is that Rabbi J. was made into a hero long after his departure and Osama and Anwar remained hero before and after their death. Jesus, Osama, and Anwar looked the same, dressed the same, and had the same mission for their people, even being 2000 years apart.

Q. How does a failed leader or failed man cry?

A. Page 27. Failure would explain the cry of despair: “My god, my god, why hast thou forsaken me?” This was retouched my Luke and then further edited by John. The Christians draw only the devout picture of Rabbi J and cover over the political aspects of his life where he came into conflic with the occupying power and was treated on the same level as Barabbas, the agitator, or the modern word for this activity is terrorist.

Q. What were the changing roles of the Messiah?

A. Page 28. The Jews only have one definition of Messiah, and that is a national liberator at God’s behest. When liberation by this Messiah failed, the later Christians introduced a brand-new concept of Messiah, which was the suffering Messiah. This Messiah had no prototype in Jewish history. In other words, the Christians, completely transformed the proper function of the Messiah, this was done because they could not think of anything else at the time and this concept just made sense to them. If Rabbi J. was the Messiah but did not fulfill his main duty and died, then there are only two options: 1) He was not the Messiah, 2) The definition of the Messiah must be something other than what Jews understand. Option 1 was chosen by the Jews since they are still waiting for the true Messiah. Option 2 was picked by the Christians who totally invented a new idea of the suffering Messiah since they could not see any other choice.

Q. Who was Rabbi J. against?

A. Page 28. If the Christians are guilty of creating a new brand of Messiah then the Jews are also guilty of hiding the true actions of Rabbi J. He was attacked by the Jews for his ethical and religious teachings. A hostility to the scribes and Pharisees that is never explained or justified runs right through the gospels.

Q. Why was Rabbi J. so dangerous?

A. Page 29. Anyone who has read a smattering of the Jewish history of that time period knows that it literally teemed with rebels and revolts. The new teaching must have had a different emphasis—an emphasis that also justified the conflict with the Pharisees.

Q. How many groups were there?

A. Page 30-33. The Christian book only mentions two groups, Sadducee and Pharisees. Sadducees had good relations with the Romans rulers of Palestine, and were really not that concerned with the occupation. They only regarded the Torah (first five books of the Bible) as the guidance and law. They were the priestly sect. Sadducee did not believe in resurrection and had no sympathy with apocalyptic ideas of kind traditionally ascribed to Rabbi J.

Pharisees, on the other hand, enlarged the scope of Torah and evolved the concept of Oral Law (Talmud). They had an explanation for everything even when the Torah did not cover it.

Rabbi J. was against both these groups so he made enemies on both sides, but was there anyone that he did not attack? There was a third group that the Bible never mentions as a separate group. This group was led by John the Baptist. This third religious reformist movement, which Rabbi J. neither mentions nor attacks, was, unlike the Pharisees and Sadducees, a secret cult inside Judaism. Strict rules, which included starvation (fasting), forbade the revelation of the secrets of the inner circle, access to which was possible only after a waiting period and initiation rites.

If we assume that Rabbi J. was close to this sect or belonged to it, would not the fact that he appeared in public and yet had sworn to keep the mysteries secret, secure, unintelligible, or contradictory, because they do not express clearly what it was forbidden to express?

Flavius Josephus described in astonishing detail the secret sect which he expressly calls the third force in the Jewish faith and which is unmentioned in the New Testament.

Q. What is the teaching of Essenes about the soul?

A. Page 36-37. The soul is immortal, thus they encourage virtue and discourage vice, since the good become better in their lifetime through the hope of a reward after death, and the propensities of the bad are restrained by fear that, even if they are not caught in this life, after their dissolution they will undergo eternal punishment. This then is the religious teaching of the Essenes about the soul. This idea is quite alien to the Old Testament, that life on earth is a trial and a journey on the way to ethernal bliss. The Old Testament makes no mention of the immortality of the soul in this form nor of a domain of eternal bliss.

The concept that the body is only the prison of the soul, which is unknown in the Old Testament, also occurs among the Essenes according to Josephus.

Q. What does the word Essenes mean?

A. Page 38. The name Essenes oe Essaeans is reminiscent of the Aramaic-Assyrian word Assya, which means doctor. A distinguishing mark of Rabbi J. was to heal and help the sick, and he ordered his disciples to continue this work.

Q. What was the Essenes sect?

A. Page 39-41. Everyone gave all their possessions to the leader, it was a monk type system. There were ritual ablutions and meals. All this information comes from Flavius Josephus. He was a member for three years when he was nineteen years old, before he was captured during a rebellion by the Romans, in whose service he then wrote the Jewish War.

Q. What sect did Jesus belong to?

A. Page 42. Karl Friedrich Bahtrdt believed Rabbi J. was an Essene. Other scholars asserted that the crucifixion and resurrection were only a theatrical production staged by the Essenes and consequently that the white-clad youth who announced the resurrection to the women in the empty tomb was simple one of the Essenes, who, as is well known, wore white clothes. Mary may have also taken an Essenes as an angel because of the white robe.

Q. How did the Christian church emerge?

A. Page 42. The Christian church emerged from the Essene community, whose ideas it developed, and its organization would be inexplicable without the Essenes rules. A solitary community living without women that has renounced every contact with Venus and money, and whose only companions are the palm trees. No Essene monastery has ever been found. The Essene also had a lot of similarities with the Buddhist monks.

Q. Have the Jews neglected their faith?

A. Page 57-60. Many times the Jews accepted and mingled their faith conquering forces such as Persians, Greek, and Seleucid. People who did not mix were the Pharisees “separated one”. The prophets that foretold the end and their books were not accepted by the Pharisees and were removed from the Old Testament. These prophets are quoted in the scrolls of Essenes. They were the chosen among the chosen people and became cut off from the tradition and development of Judaism down the centuries owing to their fixation on the past historical situation. They were conservatives, rooted in their own historical past, not that of the Jewish people. They called themselves the Sons of Light and the people who occupied the temple, they were called Sons of Darkness.

Q. What calendar was observed?

A. Page 80. In the temple at Jerusalem the lunar calendar was observed, among the Qumran Essenes the solar calendar.

Q. Are there passages in the bible that are meaningless?

A. Page 87. Salt loses its saltiness, [Matt 5:13]. Salt cannot lose its savor; if it does it was not salt to in the beginning. Here Jesus is using some simile or local idiom that we no longer understand, just as the satement that everyone shall be “salted with fire” [Mark 9:49], obviously comes from a world whoes mental imagery was quite different from ours.

“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven”, [Matt 5:3]. This beatitude is obscure and ambiguous. This has been explained as people lacking in understand, knowledge or lacking financially will get to heaven. It could mean the mentally deficient? No one actually knows and everyone is coming up with interpretations since there is no original. The man who is poor in spirit is neither a pauper nor a fool. The actual meaning is that those who remained poor deliberately in order to prepare themselves for the spirit, the spirit of god, will get to the kingdom of heaven.

Q. What happened after the departure of Jesus?

A. Page 108. The disciples are also scared for their lives and disperse. Some are caught and killed for political reason and not religious. Such as James and Peter. Paul who was not a disciple is also executed. Later came the uprising, destruction of the temple and dispersion of the Jews. People began to idealize Rabbi J.’s life and project its actual effect into the future. The filter began to obscure the scene, it let through only those things that seemed opportune and right to the evangelists a generation after the events. The gospels do not reproduce historical truth. Everything that is Essene teaching survives in the gospels except the name of the source. The filters are used to remove all politically dangerous references. These writings were well accepted because the readers and followers were no longer Jews. All superfluous references to a rebel role would have been politically inept and unnecessary among the new Christian outside Judaism. Something were not filtered out, such as in Mark and Matthew two contradictory versions of the feeding of the four and five thousand are left standing side by side, instead of one being rejected. The writers did not completely alter what had been written once. They did not mention Zealots by name, but they describe them. There is no summons to revolt, but the passage about sword remains intact. This was done because the placed context calls for a different interpretation. The peace and sword story is interpreted as acceptance or rejection of Jesus. Peter cutting of the ear of Malchus’s is a mere bagatelle; Jesus just puts the ear back and all political discourse disappears. Judas also had to be a Sicarian, a Zealot, a dagger-man, who betrayed Rabbi J. The evangelists are interpreters, not biographers; they did not illuminate events that had become dark owing to the generation gap—if anything, they darkened what still seemed too light.

These people did not write history, they invented it.

Q. Did anyone care about where this might all lead?

A. Page 114. Relation to reality became unimportant; doctrine became the only vital criterion. They did not ask where the doctrine came from, but what it meant—in a vacuum, so to speak. Western Christianity could manage without the Old Testament and without Judaism. This is the main reason all western Christians draw Rabbi J. as an Aryan.

Q. What would be the result if theologians told the truth about Jesus?

A. Page 116. It would be the end of Christology.

Q. What is Christianity today?

A. Page 119. Pauline Christianity called Pauli-theism, very similar to Polytheism.

Q. What are the filters created for Jesus?

A. Page 120. The first filter is to obscure his historical and biographical references. The second filter is not a filter at all but an enlargement of Jesus to god. Enlarge Jesus to a level where you see nothing but Jesus.

Q. What does Paul mean?

A. Page 123. Little one.

Q. Are Essense a Christian sect?

A. Page 124. Yes.

Q. Were there disputes between Paul and the early Churches?

A. Page 124. There were many disputes but all the records we have of these disputes are from Paul himself which makes it only one-sided point fo view. History is always written by the victor. Few disputes are mentioned in Acts of the Apostle. In Acts the very things that were not logical consequences were described as if they were. Paul and Acts make a divine event out of the break, and fulfillment out of repudiation of the past.

Q. Why did Paul create his own brand?

A. Page 125-126. He was in search of a merciful God which he was unable to find, so he created one that did not require any work, no adherence to strict rules or law, no painful circumcision, no restriction to food, and, above all, no more burden of any guilt from any previous or future sins. To achieve all of these he used the “case” of Rabbi J. to solve the “case” of Paul. The teachings of Rabbi J. does not interest Paul, he mentions none, nothing about his birth, no miracles or any facts about his life. He is only interested in the death of Jew J. which destroyed all hopes of liberation by a Messiah. He creates a victorious Christ out of a failed Jewish Messiah, the living out of the dead, the son of god out os a son of man. Everything that was anathema to an orthodox Jew like Rabbi J. becomes the gospel message in Paul. The suffering Messiah of faith replaces the conquering Messiah of the Jewish people; the transference of a man to heaven, which can only have come from Greek mythological ideas, replaces the “servant of God” on earth, as Isaiah still understood the Messiah; Paul preaches that God-Yahweh is not the one and only God, a concept inconceivable in the Jewish religion. He professes a triune God, a trinity that is yet one. Paul and the evangelist John thus create a syncretism out of monotheism. It is clear that Paul cannot possibly have been a born Jew, raised in a Jewish household; no Jew would create such lies against his creator. John further corrupted the teachings of Jesus with his gospel.

Q. Did Jesus know Paul?

A. Page 127. Jesus did not know Paul, nor did Paul know Jesus. It is clear that Paul used Rabbi J. as an excuse for propagating his own ideas. Paul must have had these ideas already established in his mind long before he believed in J.

Q. How did Paul win?

A. Page 128. The Pauline heresy became the foundation of Christian orthodoxy and the legitimate church was disowned as heretical.

Q. Did the death of the Messiah remain a mystery to the disciples?

A. Page 129,130. There is no remorse shown by the disciples at the loss of their master, nor any joy at the resurrection. They are afraid but far from being hopeless. They waited for the Messiah and also for the end of the world, neither happened. Paul arrives that gives then renewed hope. He preaches the idea of a suffering Messiah, which is completely alien to Judaism, who took our sins upon him.

Q. What does Paul’s Christology consist of?

A. Page 131. We see a lot of Septuagint, Greek mythology, Buddhist, Hinduism, Egyptianism, and Persian Zoroastrianism. The ideas that were mixed were: 1) The Lamb of God, scapegoat sacrifice on Jewish holy day, 2) Son of God, 3) God has to make atonement with himself, 4) God and Satan on equal level as light and darkness, 5) Resurrection, an idea from Gentile. 6) Deification, Greek ideas.

All these ideas were alien to Jews but quite acceptable to Jewish Christians in Jerusalem, for otherwise they would have been left without an explanation of Rabbi J.’s death.

Q. How did Paul create his magnum opus?

A. Page 131. Paul worked the events backwards. He had a dead, departed, or missing Messiah on his hands and people with no hope or explanation as to what happened and how to proceed forward. Since Paul was the only one in direct communication with the spiritual Jesus, he could invent any idea and scheme and attribute it to Rabbi J. which people then could not question or reject since it was from their own master. Even if there were questions, Paul could come up with more explanations and details since he was well-trained in the art of interpretation from his Pharisees education. Paul developed his Christology using this sequence: 1) Suffering Messiah, 2) Son of God, 3) Blood atonement, 4) Resurrection, 5) Full god and 3 gods, 6) Break the Law, 7) Return.

First step was to rescue the failed Messiah. The only way to get out of a failed Messiah situation was to say that he willingly died and for a reason even though the records show otherwise but the details did not concern Paul. He could create anything new since he was in contact with the spiritual dead Jesus. This was copied over from Buddhism and the suffering Buddha. He also had the luxury of copying this from Shri Krishna from where the word Christ also comes. Both mean “anointed one.”

Second step is to make the man more than a man. This was easy due to all the Greek myths surrounding Paul or man-god stories and gods having sons with earthy beings. The miraculous birth story was already there, so Paul did not have to do very much work on this step. He just had to elevate Jesus to a literal begotten son level and remove the Jewish thinking that all are sons of god.

Third step was the blood atonement which also was quite easy since the Jewish religion already had incorporated many sacrificial rituals for atonement of sin. Paul just had to develop this into the ultimate sacrifice where all guilt is removed from the guilty.

Forth step is the easiest and is the dying-and-rising god concept. This was a very common phenomenon but still quite alien to the Jews. Osiris, Tammuz, Adonis and Attis, Zagreus and Dionysus are just to mention a few dying-and-rising gods.

Fifth step was to join the son with the real god and make the son, from here on, the intermediary for eternity. Jews had a direct connection with god but in order to elevate the status of son it was necessary to destroy this link and create a detour. This concept of triads existed in Egypt with Osiris, Isis, and their son Horus.

Sixth step was the most rewarding of them all, to Paul. Paul wanted nothing more than popularity, fame, and adherents. He could not get Jews to follow him because they knew better, the next target was simpleton gentiles who already had most of the concepts from Greek heathenism, just the names had to be changed. The only thing standing in the way was the Law. Circumcision, dietary laws and rituals were just too cumbersome for the gentiles, they were used to doing nothing at all and going to heaven, concept. Paul linked the risen Christ to breaking of the Law and made life for the gentiles very easy. Now, the gentiles can join this religion without any pain or change.

Seventh step was copied over from the disciples who were already waiting on the return of their master, Paul really could not remove this and had to keep this in his Christology.

More theories had to be added later about the essence of Jesus, Hypostatic union, dyophysitism, trinity, the list keeps increasing. Christology, created by Paul is a dynamic religion which needs constant change and incorporation of new ideas. The acceptance of homosexuality is the newest idea to have been adopted by the church.

Q. Is Trinity polytheism?

A. Page 132. Trinity is defined as Polytheism by all religions except Christianity, which insists that it means one.

Q. What was the second step after Trinity?

A. Page 133. The failed life of Rabbi J. was replaced by the success of a divine plan for salvation by Christ. Once the Jewish Christians had accepted these monstrosities, they could equally well accept Paul’s next claim, that redemption was no longer dependent on observing the Mosaic law. Circumcision, the symbol of Judaism, was abolished by Paul. The decisive step from Jewish sect to universal religion was taken.

Q. Why did Paul knowingly corrupt the Jewish religion?

A. Page 134. Paul was a Pharisee, so he was well-trained in creating theories, interpretations, and explanations about everything in the universe. The observance of the law did not seem to provide a solution for his own guilt complex. Paul did something that Rabbi J. never did and refused to do. He extended God’s promise of salvation to the Gentiles; he abolished the law of Moses, and he prevented direct access to God by introducing an intermediary.

Q. What are the timelines of the texts?

A. Page 134. The epistles of Paul were written between year 50-60 _C.E, although only half of them are recognized as genuine by scholars, rest are written by unknown individuals using Paul’s name. The gospels were edited after 70 _C.E. The victory belonged to Pauline theology. All gospels were influenced by Pauline interpretation of man’s life according to the meaning of his death.

Q. How did Paul win?

A. Page 134. He won the day against the Jewish Christians with his universal gospel because he had more members abroad in Gentile countries than the church in Jerusalem. Majority won.

Q. Does Paul ever ask what led to Jesus’ death?

A. Page 137. No. He only sees what it means to him personally. The gentiles were easy, they already believed in many gods and even god-man concepts.

Q. What was the language of Palestine?

A. Page 138. It was Greek and Aramaic. Paul wrote in Greek. There was a difference between a Jew reading the gospel in Greek and a gentile. A Jew knows that Christos means Messiah, meaning anointed one. It refers to kings who were anointed, chosen. To a gentile this word has some secret and hidden meaning. Same with “son of god”, to a Jew it merely means a godly, pious person, but to a gentile it means a physical begotten human son by god. Such as the gods of Olympus mating with the children of earth and begetting. For the gentiles it was an easy task to transition from one form of idol worship to another. The gentiles never asked about its original meaning in the original language.

Q. Who was the firstborn of God?

A. Page 139. David, [Psalm 89:21,27,28]

Q. What does the Bible talk more about?

A. Page 150. It talks about Jesus and not God.

Conclusion

This book answers some basic questions that we already knew the answers to, but it also leaves some gaping mysteries. If it were that easy just three years after J. departed to have a Christian Church in Jerusalem and one in Damascus, where Paul was baptized, then why did it never occur to J to just prop up a Church and do things the proper way?

We also found few other books that were interesting to read from the bibliography of this book. Overall, we enjoyed that someone else also agrees that the message of Jesus was completely distorted by Paul and many gospel writers who were influenced by him.
