13. “All great truths begin as blasphemies”
The title of this article is borrowed from the literary works of George Bernard Shaw (GBS), the renowned and notorious Irish playwright. The Shavian quote is front and center because it neatly describes the focus of this article concerning Lucianity, and also, pinpoints the uncomfortable situation in which the Bible detective now finds himself. As such, many “Christians” perceive the facts presented in Lucianity (the book written by the Bible detective) as blasphemy since the new information disrupts their beliefs and understanding of Christianity. They are unwilling to accept evidence which reveals Lucius forged over 75% of the New Testament, and in doing so, he also distorted the identity of Jesus, but more critically, the purpose of Christ’s incarnation on earth. Contrary to what people believe, Jesus wasn’t sent to earth to start a new religion or to save all mankind; he was only sent to confirm the truth of the original Mosaic Code, and more specifically Genesis 1:27. He was sent to affirm the spiritual nature of Man, and demonstrate that human beings are a creation made in the image of God who lived after physical death, and burial in a grave. Nevertheless, people refuse to believe 2000 years of accepted history about the Christian religion could be wrong, and thus, the detective has committed the sin of blasphemy by exposing false scripture due to the forgery of Lucius.
In any event, the detective believes he stands in the midst of good company, because Jesus was also accused of “blasphemy.” In the first century, the Jewish Rabbis and Priests believed in a corrupted version of Judaism which they proclaimed to be true, and anyone who disagreed, violated the established law of the Theocratic State. This explains the rationale for their violent reaction to Christ because he disagreed with their interpretation of the Mosaic Code. He defied the Jewish Law and declared they believed in false dogma. However, Jesus also thrashed the money changers in the courtyard of the Temple, and this behavior was deemed an unforgivable offense. In response, the priests demanded his death by crucifixion. The public execution of Jesus proved the truth of Genesis 1:27 since his very visible death and subsequent resurrection refuted the dogma of the theocracy. These events also demonstrated that the accusations of blasphemy were false because the soul of Man didn’t die or dissipate after death. Jesus had spoken the truth about the destiny of Man’s soul, and conjunctively revealed, the beliefs and proclamations promoted by the Priests were incorrect. Similarly, the detective is accused of blasphemy since he claims the proclamations and beliefs of Christianity no longer reflect the teaching of Jesus. He maintains that the dogma and the New Testament scripture are incorrect in many ways, because just like Judaism, they have been severely corrupted in the ancient past due to the unknown forgery of Lucius. This is why people believe in Lucianity, and not true Christianity.
Then, there is the case of Galileo Galilei. In the 17th Century, this Italian physicist, engineer, and astronomer was also condemned for blasphemy, only because he promoted a Copernican heliocentric concept (i.e. an astronomical phenomena where the Earth revolves about the Sun). At the time, based on Biblical scripture, people believed … and the Church asserted that the Earth was the center of the universe, and not the Sun. Thus, according to an Inquisition, Galileo committed a blasphemy because his concept of the world was deemed a heresy, especially since it conflicted with the Pope’s belief. In plain English, his view of the universe contradicted the approved doctrine and theological belief of the Church. After the Inquisition, he was placed under house arrest for the rest of his life. Modern science has now proven Galileo Galilei correct, so even today, the Church accepts the updated science. These famous cases of blasphemy (Jesus and Galileo) substantiate Arthur Schopenhauer, the renowned German Philosopher who postulated the following: All truth passes through three stages: First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.
Thus, in the end, facts matter, and the truths that Jesus and Galileo taught became self-evident. However, in the case of Jesus, the truth he taught only lasted for about 550 years, before it was rejected as a Christian belief by Theodora, the Empress of Rome. The cardinal and fundamental message of Christ that she rubbed out, via her use of strongly-worded anathemas, asserted Reincarnation was a fact of human existence (John 3:1-13). Such being the case, Theodora is the reason Chapter 17 exists in Revelation, the last book of the Bible. It is her forehead where the following words are boldly written: MYSTERY BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH (Rev 17:5, KJV). Theodora is the one responsible for erasing the tenet of Reincarnation from Christianity, the same article of faith Moses had received from God on Mt. Sinai many centuries earlier. At the time, Moses inscribed it into the doctrine of Judaism via the Book of Genesis before it was removed as a Jewish belief by the Sadducees. The truth proclaimed by Moses also lasted for about 500 years before its ultimate rejection. This Godly truth is contained in Genesis 1:27 where it states: Man, both male and female, is made in the image of God which means when translated … Man has everlasting spiritual life --- Why? …. Because: If God is everlasting, and Man is made in the Lord’s image, then Man also has eternal life. And since the Lord declared eternal spiritual life to be true, then the soul of Man has the capability of reincarnating into any number of human bodies throughout time. Reincarnation can occur whenever it is mandated by God, or the soul finds it necessary in order to redeem its prior sins. In this regard, the single reason for God sending Jesus to earth was to demonstrate that Man lived beyond the grave because he had soul in the image of God. It was to reveal the purpose and mystery of human life, so Man would understand the rationale for his/her existence and not despair. Jesus revealed this message by his resurrection to physical life after death on the cross, and also by his spiritual appearance to John on the Greek Island of Patmos where he spiritually confirmed that he possessed everlasting life. This is the same truth the Book of Lucianity reveals when it exposes all the forgery and false beliefs of Lucius. And, because this is an eternal truth since the days of Adam and Eve, it cannot be dismissed or rejected forever.
Therefore, the truths and facts revealed in the book about Lucianity, which are not readily accepted at the current time, will also be realized some-time in the future. This will occur as the book transitions from the first and second stages of Christian belief to the third stage where it will be finally accepted as self-evident. The self-evidence will come when people finally realize that the information divulged by the detective is the exact same truths and revelations espoused by Moses and Jesus.
