Witness My Fury said: "A Jesus likely existed, but the supernatural Jesus of the Christians (mainly hijacked by Paul) certainly didn't."
Well, everyone is entitled to believe what they wish. In my world, though, and per the Bible, both John and Paul never die. There is a suspicion that the Templars discovered John along with some others still alive from the 1st Century, along with lots of genealogy records and that is the true basis for their search for the so-called "holy grail" which is linked to John. That is, they believe that John was still alive and they are desperate to find him.
In my personal experience, since I'm the Christ, I got a chance to see and/or meet Paul, John and Jesus' mother, Mary. That's why when Jesus was dying he said to John to take care of his mother. It wasn't because she didn't have other, closer family members to take care of her, but that John and his mother were chosen not to die. I know this might sound funny, but Mary is pretending to be a witness! I met her at a Kingdom Hall. She knew who I was, of course. So that is very interesting.
Paul was dark complected which I found out later in Scripture that he was considered to be an "Egyptian" who were dark people in the 1st Century. This contrasts with the concept that the Jews of that time looked like modern Mid-Easterners, that is, of a darker comlexion rather than being fair-skinned like many modern Jews. Paul was dark complected, but John looked like the typical white Jew. I was surprised, in fact, that he was so fair-skinned. But that explains as well why Paul, being dark complected, would have been presumed to be Egyptian rather than Jewish. It was a shock to those who were persecuting him that he was actually Jewish.
But getting back to the point of Jesus being a man of miracles. The "elect today" tend to believe Jesus was a man of miracles simply because Paul, John and Mary are still alive. Now while most people will not accept this reality, it is what the Bible claims! That is, that some alive in the 1st Century would not die before the Christ returns. (Matt. 16:28).
Further, the Templars are an active and long-time secret society. Their existence if based on the secret knowledge that John and others from the 1st Century are still alive is more logical than them existing based on a lie, such as Jesus having married Mary Magdalene. Plus, the nature of my own secret ministry takes a back seat to John. That is, John's identity is a far more closely guarded secret than my own. In fact, likely interest in me is at least partially increased by a hope that I might lead the Templars to finding John. He is an extremely closely guarded secret, probably because he along with those extant ancient records poses the greatest threat to pagan Christianity.
All that to say this, if the secret modern elect are aware that Mary, John and Paul and others are still alive from the 1st Century, plus we are aware of the new identities of resurrected ones, then we are hardly worried about trying to defend the gospels in regard to Jesus being a man of miracles! That's because we are now witnessing some of those miracles first hand.
So, Witness My Fury, thanks for the LAUGH! Doubting and being a skeptic is one thing -- that's fine. But DISPROVING the gospel account is not something you're in a position to do.
So a lot is going on behind the scenes you are not aware of. Just step back and realize the Templars search for the so-called "holy grail", meaning descendants of Jesus or his relatives is directly linked to John. John even in "The DaVinci Code" is substituted by Mary Magdalene. That is only because it was understood that John had a special relationship with Jesus. Remember, John was the "disciple that Jesus loved." John was the disciple that was on the bosom position of Christ at the Lord's Supper. The Templar's substitution of Mary Magdalene for John, simply addresses their acknowledgement that John and Jesus had a special relationship similar to a marriage, and it was just easier, historically, to represent that between a man and a woman rather than two men. John and Jesus, certainly were not lovers, but Jesus certainly was interested in no woman, if you get my drift.
At any rate, even the existence of the Templars and this great tradition for the search for the "holy grail" confirms or suggests they discovered John was still alive at Jerusalem when they first went there. When they reported this to the Pope and then were sent back, of course, John and that small congregation of survivors from the 1st Century along with all those records were long gone.
But it is understandable that persons not of the elect or not close to Jehovah's modern activities would have a basis to doubt and second-guess the Scriptures. I understand. But I just wanted to share that some of us, who happen to be of the elect, have a totally different experience as far as miracles and believing the gospels. Since we are experiencing up close the modern miracles, even conversing with God pesonally, there is no reason to doubt the gospels and certainly know YOU have no authority to challenge what they say or doubting Jesus was the son of God, which he truly was.
Well, that's my 2 cents. Bing an "insider" has its perks!
