Has anyone here read the 'Hiram Key'.
It covers the ancient history, the history of the Free Masons, and christianity in general, including the ever popular Knights Templar.
I've found this book totally fascinating but don't know if I'm being objective enough about it at the moment.
I've just covered the part on the apostle Paul.
Jesus and his brother James were the leaders of the Quamarians. Jesus was killed and about twenty years later James was killed. The Quamarians spoke of themselves being alive and others dead. Therefore, when anyone was converted to them, they said they became alive. Hence when water was turned to wine, this was a mass conversion, not a literal water turning to wine. When Lazarus was resurrected, he had returned to the Quamarians, not literally died. He'd left, and then come back.
The whole miracle and resurrection thing was basically a misunderstanding of symbolic speech. Jesus was not believed born of a virgin and neither was he a God, or literally a son of God. He was believed to be a mortal by his followers.
Paul came along, many years later and believed this to be literal rather than symbolic.
Modern day Christians are not in fact christians but Paulists. Paul was a misoginist, and Christ was not. There's far more to this, but you'd have to read the book. It is fascinating. If nothing it is eye opening but totally fascinating. The Roman Church has worked hard to keep all this quiet. Jesus was just an ordinary man, even though he was a very intelligent and charismatic ordinary man.
So! Anyone read this book and wish to enlighten me furthur?!

Paul who ??? Apostle Paul....formerly Saul.....blinded....but made to see.....that bloke. Gill, Ohhh .. thanks, forgot for a minute what site I was on. The aplostile Paul seemed to be a hardliner. Apostate though ??? .... naaahhh. I don't think so. He didn't have a life "after" writing like Solomon did. I see nothing to indicate that he was an apostate. Rub a Dub

No,
Every prophet that God ever sent to the nation of Isreal..was a rebel against the established system...of religion... and ofcourse JESUS is the foremost apostate.

Was Paul the first apostate?
Well if he was, he certainly wasn't the last.

To some Christian Jewish groups he probably was an apostate because of his stand against the Mosaic law a very revolutionary approach at that time. But I can't see any contradictions between the gospels we have and Pauline theology. There the miracles of Christ are described as literal and it wasn't Paul that wrote them.
