The Secret Door: What Ancient Texts Reveal About Jesus and the True Nature of Salvation - Tapa blanda

The discovery in recent years of many gospels and books dating back to early Christianity has shown, beyond a doubt, that what we think of as Christianity today is vastly different from that of early Christianity. By placing passages from the Bible alongside those from the lost gospels it becomes clear that the discovery of these lost gospels not only puts the original face back onto Christianity, it allows us, at long last, the privilege of understanding what Jesus Christ was truly saying. In juxtaposing these scriptures with Bible passages, a narrative emerges which answers many questions. Questions like: Why was the early church so desperate to hide much of what Jesus taught the apostles? And why, as years passed and orthodox institutions took holdâ€"institutions run by men who were looking after their own interests, who had no understanding through the Holy Spiritâ€"those scriptures were renounced as heresy and ordered destroyed.... What is true Baptism and why is it so very important to seek it? The lost gospels show that true baptism is far different from the mere ritual Christians have come to accept as baptism. Being baptized with the Holy Spirit is being filled with the Holy Spiritâ€" and you know when it happens.... Are there such things as aliens? In recent years more and more findings are pointing to this reality and the evidence is mounting that these encounters actually took place: that so-called “extraterrestrials†visited earth and intermingled with humans. Who were they? Texts show that they are no less than the “fallen angels†who came down in the days of Jared and cohabited with human women, their offspring becoming the giants (Nephilim) spoken of in Genesis 6. Where did they originate? Rather than angelic beings with wings, the word “angel†means messenger, and they belong to the “Prince of the Air†who is Satan himself. Find out when they are likely to return and what their agenda will be.... Why has there been so much talk about the world ending on December 21, 2012? And, more importantly... will it? There is very good reason for all the hype about 2012 and the answers can be found if you know where to look. It's highly doubtful the world will end exactly on December 21st, 2012, since Jesus himself told us no one knows the day or time, "...not the angels but the Father only" (Matt. 24:36). However, Jesus did give us very specific signs to look for regarding the end, and those who have opened their eyes will see.... Is there such a thing as Planet X? The Bible refers to it as the Destroyer while the ancient Sumerians called it Nibiru, which means "Planet of the Crossing." The truth is that we are living in a binary star system as, indeed, many stars are. A smaller, failed star, known as a brown dwarf, is orbiting our sun. Its long, elliptical orbit takes roughly thirty-six hundred years to complete, and it is due back around very soon.... These and many other questions are fully explored and answered in The Secret Door: What Ancient Texts Reveal about Jesus and the True Nature of Salvation. By showing passages from the Bible, the Nag Hammadi Scriptures, and the Books of Enoch and Jasher side-by-side, not only are these questions answered, you are shown exactly where to look so you can see them for yourself.
