All religious path equally become corrupted

By fb Allan Cronshaw

    At their core and essence, all religions began as a path to self-discovery. All religious path equally become corrupted -- and it is the Natural Laws of Creation that causes the corruption for the greater good of the people. Quoting from http://BrotherOfJesus.org :
The Spiritual Holistic Lifestyle: The original Essene and Ebionite Nazirenes lived a Wholistic Spiritual Lifestyle that enabled them to comprehend man's higher Soul and Spiritual Realities -- a.k.a., the Mysteries of the Kingdom of God. As it is written: "He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes, to him I will give of the hidden manna" (Rev 2:17). Unless you have fulfilled the requirement to "overcome", it is impossible for you to receive the "hidden manna" of the Kingdom (see Christians Blocked From Being Taught By Indwelling Logos http://KeyOfKnowledge.org#ChristiansBlocked ). Which means that ONLY those who live the necessary Wholistic Spiritual Mindset and Lifestyle are able to comprehend the spiritual meaning of the scriptures, as well as the purpose and objectives of the life that all of mankind is presently living.
Jesus did not say that the knowledge of the Kingdom belonged to everyone, as demonstrated in the words: “Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables: That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand” (Mark 4:11-12).
Why did Jesus portray some people as "...seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand”? What Jesus said was that, unless certain transformative requirements are fulfilled by a person, they will see, but remain blind and unable to understand with any depth what they are seeing. And this is verified by Paul when he stated to the Corinthians who he had himself taught what he portrayed as the (quasi-historical) "traditions" of the Gospel that, "And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual people but as to carnal, as to babes in Christ.
I fed you with milk and not with solid food; for until now you were not able to receive it, and even now you are still not able; for you are still carnal" (1 Cor 3:1-3). Paul was stating that it was not a matter of teaching or instruction -- but rather, of the "natural" mind of man evolving beyond man's organic limitations, that would raise them up to a level of higher spiritual maturity. And this is why the Church Father Origen who was portrayed as the greatest teacher second only to the Apostles stated of the physical resurrection that it was “preached in the Churches… for the simpleminded and for the ears of the common crowd who are led on to live better lives by their belief” (see Contra Celsum). Why? Because of their untransformed carnal condition of mind and being, this allegorical portrayal of the Final Stage of Birth was all that the faith-based believers were capable of comprehending.

Corrupted Gospels Important: Why was it important for the people to embrace a corrupted form of the Gospel? Another important fact that the Christian world has ignored to their own demise, is the witness of the biblical authors that it is impossible for the faith-based Christians who are of a Natural Organic mindset, to comprehend the true spiritual meaning of the scriptures (see Animal-Soul http://AnInconvenientTruth.org#animal ). And that because it is impossible for people of ordinary human organic consciousness to understand the deeper spiritual meaning of not only the Gospels, but also the higher reality of the Soul and the Mysteries of the Kingdom, it is necessary to provide the congregation of believers with an elementary allegorical text that contains important catalysts that are employed within the written text to bring about a development of the mind of the believer. When Paul stated that he was only able to nourish the faith-based Christians with "milk", the purpose of the Gospel teachings was to develop their human consciousness through the process of the deepening and expansion of their mind, in order to enable them to evolve into spiritually mature Christians who were able to be nourished by the "solid food" of the Divine Manna of the Kingdom.
The very foundation of the New Covenant which few people understand today, conveys the reality that spiritually mature believers will not be dependent upon the written word which Paul correctly portrayed as the "letter that killeth [and] Jewish folktales" (see 2 Cor 3:6; Titus 1:14) -- but rather, with the necessary spiritual maturity they will be taught directly by God -- i.e., "It is written in the prophets, 'And they shall all be taught by God'" (John 6:45 NKJ). But this ability to learn and be taught directly by God, requires a Wholistic Spiritual mindset and lifestyle that enables the seeker to receive the "solid food" of the Divine Manna of the Kingdom. Brother Of Jesus

Christians Blocked From Being Taught Directly From the Indwelling Logos/Son of God/True Prophet:  When Paul stated to the baptized and committed Christians who he personally taught, "And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual people but as to carnal, as to babes in Christ.  I fed you with milk and not with solid food; for until now you were not able to receive it, and even now you are still not able; for you are still carnal" (1 Cor 3:1-3 NKJ) -- what he was stating was the need to deepen and expand human consciousness beyond organic natural levels.  Without this mental expansion and spiritual deepening, it is therefore impossible for the faith-based Christian or the critics to read the scriptures, and understand the true spiritual meaning of the writings -- which meaning can only be imparted to man directly from the Logos that exists at the core of our mind and being.   As stated by the Apostle Peter above: "...therefore great care is to be taken, that when the law of God is read, it be not read according to the understanding of our own mind. For there are many sayings in the divine Scriptures which can be drawn to that sense which every one has preconceived for himself; and this ought not to be done. For you ought not to seek a foreign and extraneous sense, which you have brought from without".   And therefore, understanding the true meaning of the scriptures is virtually impossible for those who throw away the Key of Knowledge, and rely upon the teachers and authorities of this world for their knowledge and understanding.  To receive the Divine Manna from the Inner Source of Knowledge remains impossible so long as the person is functioning in an Old Covenant mode of learning. 

The Gospels were corrupted in order to make them support a foundation of man-made beliefs imposed upon the faith-based community by a series of secular and sectarian leaders.  With the corruption of the Gospels, their ability to fulfill their intended purpose and objective was undermined.  If these people who had corrupted the Gospels had known the Truth -- or, understood the purpose of the allegorical catalysts -- they never would have corrupted the Gospels (see http://BibleCorruption.com ).   Those who corrupted the Gospels did so, in order to force the body of faith-based Christians to practice a very different religion than the historical man Jesus intended and ordained.  In addition to the corruption and removal of many ultra-important teachings, the very words that the Gospels portray as having been spoken to mankind by God, were also edited and corrupted in order to change and alter the very purpose of the whole of the Gospel teachings and objectives.   The question then becomes: Is the purpose and objective of the corrupters of the Gospels, the same as the purpose and objectives of the historical man Jesus and the original authors?    

With the corruption of the very Words that God spoke to mankind (see The Corruption Of The Words Of God http://BrotherOfJesus.org#CorruptionOfGodsWords ) means that (1) you are worshiping the historical man who you should be imitating as a pattern; and (2) you are looking outwardly for what you must find within you.  And since you are worshiping the man Jesus who was your elder spiritual brother as God -- and therefore your thinking, mindset and beliefs are built upon a totally different and gravely flawed foundational paradigm -- it remains impossible for the indwelling True Prophet to teach the modern Christian.   When Paul told the faith-based Christians who he had personally taught that "...I fed you with milk and not with solid food", so long as the believer is basing their doctrines of belief upon the gravely flawed foundational paradigm of the modern Church, it will remain impossible to evolve their thinking and mindset beyond a very immature level of understanding. 

If Jesus was God incarnate, then the foundational paradigm of thought and belief is totally different than the foundational paradigm built upon the original words of God when it was stated that the man Jesus became the Anointed (Messiah/Christ) at his baptism in the Jordan when God said: "Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee"  (see http://TheTenWords.com ).  What this means is that on the day that Jesus was baptized, he became the Anointed (Messiah/Christ) for the first time.  The original Words that God spoke to mankind is quoted verbatim by Paul in the Epistle to the Hebrews, and also the Book of Acts as the words that the disciples witnessed that were spoken by God about the man Jesus.  Of this quotation, The Adam Clark Commentary with regard to the passage at Hebrews 1:5 which quotes the Original Words that God spoken to Mankind states that if this quotation used by Paul and is also found in the Book of Acts is true with respect to the words spoken of Jesus, then “...the whole Christian system is vain and baseless" -- and thus, when the Church corrupted the Words spoken to mankind by God, the congregation of believers were cast into a Spiritual Diaspora which they have yet to escape.   Why?  Because the Church under the Roman Emperor Constantine erected the structure of the core doctrines of the Church on a gravely flawed foundational paradigm of thought and belief.   And so long as they continue to cling to that gravely flawed foundational paradigm of belief, it will remain impossible for Christians to receive the higher spiritual knowledge that Paul portrays as the "solid food" of the Gospel -- i.e.,  "...I fed you with milk and not with solid food; for until now you were not able to receive it, and even now you are still not able; for you are still carnal" (see Animal-Soul http://AnInconvenientTruth.org#animal ).    

If Jesus was a man -- just like his brothers and sisters -- who became At-One with the Indwelling Logos/Son of God, then how did he accomplish what other men seemingly do not?   The facts are, that the New Covenant Gospel teachings emerged out of the foundation of the Essenes, and not the Jews (see The Essenes And The Dead Sea Scrolls http://OriginalGospel.Ebionite.com#Essene ).  And the foundation of the Essene  teachings was based upon the evolution of the Soul over the course of many lifetimes.   Which means that the Soul of Jesus and his core disciples were evolved over the course of many lifetimes, in order to achieve the final stage of birth that is allegorical portrayed in the crucifixion.  And that this was understood by the pre-Nicene Church, is apparent in the explanation by the Church Father Origen in defense of the teachings on the resurrection when Origen explained in Contra Celsum that the allegorical account of the crucifixion was “...preached in the Churches …for the simpleminded and for the ears of the common crowd who are led on to live better lives by their belief”.   Once it is understood that the Gospels are not historical accounts -- but very much, accounts of the mind and spirit -- then the meaning of the resurrection takes on a very different and personal meaning.  And what this also means is that the virgin birth is not an historical account -- but rather, is a portrayal of the next non-physical birth that Jesus taught was necessary in order to enter the Kingdom -- what this means is that every follower of Jesus must be born of the virgin and achieve the Final Birth which is allegorically portrayed in the resurrection.  But these series of births is impossible for the faith-based Christians to comprehend, so long as their system of beliefs remain founded upon the gravely flawed foundational paradigm of the fourth century Church.  

The Ebionite Nazirene disciples of Jesus emerged out of the Essenes, and of the Essenes the historian  Josephus who was a contemporary of the man Jesus who lived among them stated with respect to the foundation of Essene beliefs: “For their doctrine is this, that bodies are corruptible, and that the matter they are made of is not permanent; but that the souls are immortal, and continue for ever; and that they came out of the most subtle air, and are united to their bodies as to prisons, into which they are drawn by a certain natural enticement...”.   With respect to the emergence of Jesus out of the bedrock of the Essenes, Prof. Edmund Wilson, an expert who worked on the Dead Sea Scrolls concluded that “Jesus... had been trained in the discipline and imbued with the thought of a certain Jewish sect, and that he had learned from it the role that he afterwards lived...” (The Scrolls From The Dead Sea).   And this fact prompted A. Powell Davies to state: “Biblical scholars were not disturbed by what they found in the Dead Sea Scrolls because they had known all along that the origin of Christianity was not what was commonly supposed to have been” (quoted by Millar Burrows in More Light on the Dead Sea Scrolls).  And when Prof. John Allegro was quoted as saying that what has been revealed in the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls is a great amount of overwhelming evidence that “...may upset a great many basic teachings of the Christian Church.   This in turn would greatly upset many Christian Theologians and believers.   The heart of the matter is, in fact, the source and originality of Christian doctrine” (August 1966 issue of Harpers Magazine), what is being portrayed is the fact that modern Church doctrine has virtually nothing in common with the Original Gospel Teachings. 

When Jesus portrayed those who  "...prophesied ...cast out demons ...and done many wonders" in the name of Christ, and stated that "...I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!'" (Matt 7:21-23 NKJ) -- what is portrayed in reference to the Laws, is what Jesus taught his Ebionite Nazirene followers they must overcome, in order to enter through the "narrow strait gate" and gain entrance to the Kingdom within.   And in accord with the original teachings of Jesus, his followers who walked and talked with him daily maintained that Jesus "...was justified by fulfilling the Law. He was the Christ of God, since not one of the rest of mankind had observed the Law completely. Had any one else fulfilled the commandments of the Law, he would have been the Christ, for they assert that our Lord Himself was a man in like sense with all humanity" (see Hippolytus, Refut. Omn. Haer. vii. 34).  Which teaching confirms the Words of God that were spoken at the baptism of Jesus in the Jordan when he became the Anointed (Messiah/Christ) that were corrupted by the fourth century Church -- i.e.,  "Thou art My beloved Son, to-day have I begotten Thee".  That the corruption of the Words of God is easily confirmed by six (6) Pre-Nicene Church Authority Witness http://TheTenWords.com#Gentile .   

When Jesus stated that not one jot or tittle of the Law would be done away with -- i.e., "For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished" (Matt 5:18) -- means that the Law remains in effect until there is no longer a heaven and and earth.  But when the scriptures are understood, what is being portrayed is not the outward understanding of the Law by the Jews -- but rather, the Inward Application of the Law that when Jesus fulfilled the Law within his own Mind and Being, he became Anointed (Messiah/Christ) and At-One with the indwelling Logos/Son of God.   Therefore, in the Original Gospel where it is stated that the followers of Jesus must pick up their own cross and travail in TheWay, then they must also fulfill the Law in the same manner that Jesus did.  And the original uncorrupted words spoken by God to mankind stated that the historical man Jesus was a pattern for all of mankind, because of his success in overcoming and fulfilling the Law within himself, is demonstrated in the words: "He was the Christ of God, since not one of the rest of mankind had observed the Law completely. Had any one else fulfilled the commandments of the Law, he would have been the Christ..."   And this confirms this statement with respect to the true potential of all of mankind that Jesus taught, as demonstrated in the words of Hippolytus when he wrote that this body of original core followers and disciple believed that when anyone "...thus fulfill the law, they are able to become Christs" (Hippolytus, Refut. Omn. Haer. vii. 34 - see http://Ebionite.com ).   Which means that what Jesus accomplished, is in fact the eventual destiny of all of mankind who are portrayed as the lost prodigal sons and daughters of their Heavenly Father.   And this is why Jesus taught that he was our brother -- i.e., "Go instead to my brothers and tell them, 'I am returning to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God'" (John 20:17 NIV).     That the historical Jesus was a true holy man who became the Anointed (Messiah/Christ) by fulfilling the Royal Law within himself, is attested to at Acts 2:22 where Jesus is portrayed as "a man, attested to you by God" -- and this was demonstrated by God performing "mighty works and wonders and signs that God did through him in your midst".   If Jesus was himself God incarnate as believed by the later Romans, then these words portraying Jesus as a man approved by God through the works and wonders that God did through him, never would have been presented in this manner.  

It was the living of the necessary Consecrated Life that Jesus ordained, and the seeking of the Kingdom within, that enabled the historical Jesus to become the Messiah, and At-One with the Indwelling Logos/Son of God -- a path and teachings that the modern Church totally rejects based upon the doctrine of faith apart from one's actions which was instituted by Martin Luther.   And the reality that Jesus, the man, became the Anointed, and At-One with the Indwelling Logos/Son of God, is especially demonstrated in the words of Edward Gibbon with respect to the original position of the Ebionite Nazirene disciples of Jesus who walked and talked with him daily, that he was in “...supernatural union of a man and God... In their eyes, Jesus of Nazareth was a mere mortal, the legitimate son of Joseph and Mary: but he was the best and wisest of the human race, selected as the worthy instrument to restore upon earth the worship of the true and supreme Deity. When he was baptized in the Jordan, the Christ, the first of the aeons, the Son of God himself, descended on Jesus in the form of a dove, to inhabit his mind, and direct his actions during the allotted period of his ministry” (Gibbon; The Decline & Fall of the Roman Empire, V.4, P.366). 

How did the historical man Jesus become At-One with the Indwelling Logos/Son of God?  Once the original teachings on the Soul that evolves to perfection over the course of many lifetimes was removed from the Gospels, it became virtually impossible for the faith-based Christians to understand the path that they must themselves walk.   The Soul of the man Jesus became Whole and Complete over the course of many lifetimes -- and as the prodigal sons and daughters of the Most High, this is true of all of mankind.  And without understanding the essentials of the process of how a "babe in Christ" becomes Whole and Complete, the inward path into the "narrow strait gate" becomes impossible to enter.  Until the faith-based believer begins to build upon the proper foundational paradigm of thought and belief, it will remain impossible to evolve those beliefs into the necessary Higher Truth that enables them to be taught by the Indwelling Logos/Son of God -- i.e., "It is written in the prophets, 'And they shall all be taught by God.' Therefore everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to Me" (John 6:45).
