Glyn Thomas

Proof of a divine Creator is not to be found in the Bible but compelling evidence is found in astronomy and in biology. Surprisingly, the real identity of Yahweh may be deduced from biblical texts. The most memorable figures from the Old Testament include Noah, Abraham, Moses and kings David & Solomon - one might expect these found international rec- ognition, with references to their exceptional feats in the his- torical record of surrounding adjacent cultures. But, only one of these heroes has been verified, one appears to be adopted from another culture, one surprises by his total invisibility and the youngest are acknowledged only by an isolated and obscure fragment. Second Edition printed January 2021.

Part One: God, Enki, Ra/Marduk & Yahweh (The Truth Will Set You Free)

Christianity is built upon our understanding of Jesus role and teaching. This book seeks to prise away the many barnacles that have encrusted Christian beliefs so that the purity and simplicity of Jesus message can be appreciated.\nMany aspects of Christian belief have been invented - some for marketing purposes others for political ambitions. The virgin birth, the nativity story and the detailed genealogies of Jesus are clearly fabricated. Evidence points to a special sign concerning Jesus birth which convinced many He was a messiah - but it was not a star or comet which miraculously got suspended in geosynchronous earth orbit!\nJesus original followers, called Nazarenes by contemporaries, founded the first Church, in Jerusalem. Under the leadership of James, Jesus brother, this church blossomed eastwards across what today are Syria, Iraq and India; and westwards across North Africa and up the Atlantic coast along north-west Iberia, southern France and the British Isles.\nJesus teaching was embellished by Paul, who was repeatedly challenged by the leaders of Jesus' church for inventing new doctrines. AD325 saw Pauline (Mark II) Christianity merged with Roman worship of Sol Invictus (Akkadian: Shamash) - changing the Sabbath to the day of the Sun, moving Christ's birthday from mid-September to the annual festival of Sol Invictus and, under the new Trinity concept, even deifying Constantine as messiah and god elect. As Pontifex Maximus, Constantine became senior to the Bishop of Rome.\nFor information and maps on this series: truthpublications.co.uk

Part Three: Jesus, the Nazarene (The Truth Will Set You Free)

Does the church teach Jesus message accurately? If not, how can we find what Jesus originally taught? Tough questions, to which careful research provides revealing answers.\nMany know of terrible excesses committed by the Church using quasi military forces to carry out numerous purges over many centuries. Estimates of those professing to be Christian, tortured to death, burned at the stake or literally torn to pieces range from 30,000 to 300,000 under the Spanish Inquisition alone. Empowered by adoption as the state religion of the Roman Empire, religious dogma was enshrined in law - so disputing dogma attracted legal penalty. The law gave the Church full control over individual lives, dissent threatened this and triggered decisive action. Strenuous efforts were made to stamp out views deemed heretical - anyone believing such ideas and any texts containing such ideas were ruthlessly destroyed.\nThe destruction of early Christian texts was indiscriminate - the earliest New Testament we have, the Codex Vaticanus dates from c325, some fragments of individual books have survived dating back as far as 150. The oldest surviving manuscripts have sections with controversial verses removed to obliterate original beliefs. We do know that there was a thriving range of commentary and dozens of gospels used by the early churches - but, we only have their titles and some phrases quoted in the writings of early church fathers. Why were heretical ideas stamped out with such fanatical zeal - what inconvenient truths were being hidden?\nThe Church continued inventing dogma until some insiders rebelled, triggering the Reformation. The pathway to Truth lies in understanding the heresies and finding which link back to Jesus teaching as shown by the few ancient texts recovered in the past century.
