+ | |||
+ | Christianity consists of categories to be entered into and not so much rules to be followed - i.e. living, dead, saved, unsaved, family, non-family, priest, prophet, king, evangelist, pastor, servant, worker, etc. | ||
+ | |||
+ | 1. The Apostolic Age began and ended with the actual original Disciples of Jesus Christ - the current Church Age is the Common Christian Church Era where all Christians are equal in status | ||
+ | |||
+ | 2. Jesus is the Christian High Priest after the eternal Order of Melchizedek | ||
+ | |||
+ | 3. Mt. Sinai is located outside of Egypt | ||
+ | |||
+ | 4. The Final Judgment is Spiritual not physical | ||
+ | |||
+ | 5. John the Baptist was the last of the Old Testament Prophets and died before the beginning of the Christian Church era | ||
+ | |||
+ | 6. The current and ongoing Christian Church era began on the day of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ | ||
+ | |||
+ | 7. Sin unto eternal death is singular and is unbelief | ||
+ | |||
+ | 8. The plural sins are a missing of the mark and are not sins unto eternal death | ||
+ | |||
+ | 9. The Spiritual realm and our physical realm are currently divided and temporarily separated i.e. there is absolutely no legitimate communion between the living and the departed souls of humans | ||
+ | |||
+ | 10. The legitimate communication and interaction or discernment for humans into the Spiritual Realm is strictly via the Holy Spirit (Holy Ghost Person in KJV) - any concept of the spiritual realm or i.e. departed souls would be from the agency of the Holy Spirit or it would not be legitimate | ||

+ | 11. The Four Primary Church Leadership Errors | ||

+ | The rebellious false leadership Error of Korah, the greedy Error of Balaam, the sexually immoral stumbling blocks Error of Balak and the user-oppressive leadership Error of the Nicolaitanes. | ||

+ | 14. The original New Testament Bible scrolls were written in Greek miniscule (all small letters aka minuscule) text on leather scrolls [currently the traditional modern KJV texts] – the papyrus manuscripts are later editions while the even later modern Greek uncial (all capital letters) texts are modern day forgeries - the four forged uncial codices: Sinaiticus, Vaticanus, Alexandrinus and Ephraemi [currently the non traditional modern NIV, ESV, ect.] - Greek uncial text was primarily used for government purposes usually on public monuments that still exist today while Greek miniscule text was used primarily for private correspondence - the Greek NT scripture documents that Jerome used in his Latin translation [the Vulgate translated 390-405 AD] were of the Greek miniscule text - "In the second edition (1519 [AD]) Erasmus also used Minuscule 3 (entire NT except Revelation; 12th century [Latin Vulgate]) [and a later revision was made with Minuscule 1]." source: wikipedia.com - Sinaiticus (discovered in the Mt. Sinai Monastery in 1859 by Dr. **Constantin Von Tischendorf**), | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Note:** possibly what happened in regarding the bigger picture of the four Greek uncial codices is that the four documents a variation of one document were known forgeries at the time and Constantin von Tischendorf [a Protestant] was simply used as an agent to locate, examine or discover the previously deposited documents. All of Tischendorf’s financing and activities i.e. examining Vatican documents and having an audience with the Pope, going to Saint Catherine' | ||
+ | |||
+ | **The Occult Practitioners Dr. Wescott and F. A. Hort** | ||
+ | |||
+ | The progenitor of the Society for Psychical Research and the Fabian Society was the Cambridge University Ghost Society, founded in 1851. In 1853, two years after founding said Ghost Society, F.J.A. Hort and B. F. Westcott agreed, upon the suggestion of publisher Daniel Macmillan, **to take part in "an interesting and comprehensive 'New Testament Scheme,'" | ||
+ | |||
+ | "One result of our talk I may as well tell you. He (Westcott) and I are going to edit a Greek text of the New Testament some two or three years hence, if possible. Lachmann and **Tischendorf will supply [occult] rich materials**, | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Codex Sinaiticus** | ||
+ | |||
+ | Discovered in the Mt. Sinai Monastery in 1859 by Dr. Constantin Von Tischendorf | ||
+ | |||
+ | German Biblical scholar **Constantin von Tischendorf** wrote about his visit to the monastery in Reise in den Orient in 1846 (translated as Travels in the East in 1847), **without mentioning the manuscript** [Sinaiticus]. Later, in 1860, in his writings about the Sinaiticus discovery, Tischendorf wrote a narrative about the monastery and the manuscript that spanned from 1844 to 1859. He wrote that in 1844, during his first visit to the Saint Catherine' | ||
+ | |||
+ | In 1853, Tischendorf revisited the Saint Catherine' | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Codex Vaticanus** | ||
+ | |||
+ | The manuscript is believed to have been housed in Caesarea in the 6th century, together with the Codex Sinaiticus, as they have the same unique divisions of chapters in the [Book of] Acts. It came to Italy – probably from Constantinople – after the Council of Florence (1438–1445). | ||
+ | |||
+ | The manuscript has been housed in the Vatican Library (founded by Pope Nicholas V in 1448) for as long as it has been known, appearing in the library' | ||
+ | |||
+ | Before the 19th century, no scholar was allowed to study or edit the Codex Vaticanus, and scholars did not ascribe any value to it; in fact it was suspected to have been interpolated by the Latin textual tradition. John Mill wrote in his Prolegomena (1707): "in Occidentalium gratiam a Latino scriba exaratum" | ||
+ | |||
+ | Griesbach produced a list of nine manuscripts which were to be assigned to the Alexandrian text: C, L, K, 1, 13, 33, 69, 106, and 118. Codex Vaticanus was not in this list. In the second (1796) edition of his Greek NT, Griesbach added Codex Vaticanus as a witness to the Alexandrian text in Mark, Luke, and John. He still believed the first half of Matthew represented the Western text-type. ... | ||
+ | |||
+ | **According to Tischendorf** the [Vaticanus] manuscript was written by three scribes (A, B, C), two of whom appear to have written the Old Testament and one the entire New Testament. Tischendorf' | ||
+ | |||
+ | It was used by Westcott and Hort in their edition, The New Testament in the Original Greek (1881), and it was the basis for their text. All critical editions of the New Testament published after Westcott and Hort were closer in the Gospels to the Codex Vaticanus text than to the Sinaiticus, with only the exception of Hermann von Soden' | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Codex Alexandrinus** | ||
+ | |||
+ | How did the Codex Alexandrinus come to the British Library? | ||
+ | |||
+ | This manuscript is named after the capital of Greek Egypt, Alexandria. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The first we know of the Codex Alexandrinus was when it formed part of the patriarchal library at the beginning of the 14th century, although its whereabouts before that are unknown. Since then it has a tradition of regal ownership: in 1627 Cyril Lucar, Patriarch of Constantinople and a former Patriarch of Alexandria, presented it to King Charles I of England. As part of the Royal Library it made its way into the British Museum, and then the British Library. It had a narrow escape in 1731 when Ashburnam House caught fire: it survived, thanks to the quick thinking of Dr Bentley of the Cotton Library, who took it to safety. <fs xx-small> | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | **Codex Ephraemi Rescriptus** | ||
+ | |||
+ | The manuscript is called Codex Ephraemi Rescriptus because (a) it is a codex, i.e., a handmade book; (b) its parchment has been recycled; originally inscribed with Scriptural texts, the pages were washed (removing most of the ink) and reused for another text {a common practice in currency forgery}, and (c) the text that was written on the recycled pages, in the 12th century, consisted of Greek translations of 38 treatises composed by Ephrem the Syrian, a prominent bishop of the mid-4th century. Manuscripts of this sort, consisting of recycled pages, are known as palimpsests. The later (or, " | ||

Mount Zion near Jerusalem is the location of the cross, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ it is where Christians go to meet God as opposed to the now spiritually empty Mount Sinai where the Laws of Moses were given and the Mount of Olives where Jesus will return in the future to the Jews | ||
