Who is This King of Glory?
Author: Alvin Boyd Kuhn
Publisher: Book Tree
ISBN: 1585093181
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 513
Book Description
This book reveals that much of Christianity and its beliefs had originated in ancient Egypt rather than the Middle East. The author presents us with how, where and why many spiritual Egyptian beliefs were adopted into Christian form and accepted as "history", as opposed to being carried over in their original mythological form. Kuhn states, "The gospels are not and never were histories. They are now proven to have been cryptic dramas of the spiritual evolution of humanity and of the history of the human soul in its earthly tabernacle of flesh." For Christianity to be expressed in the way it was first intended, as experienced during the first two centuries of its existence, one must first acknowledge its pagan roots. This is too much of a leap for most people, but they have not read this book. The author reveals how things were altered in the third century by the existing priesthood and why.

The Root of All Religion
Author: Alvin Boyd Kuhn
Publisher: Rare Treasure Editions
ISBN: 1774644177
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 59
Book Description
Kuhn contended that the Bible derived its origins from other Pagan religions and that much of Christian history was pre-extant as Egyptian mythology. He also proposed that the Bible was symbolic and did not depict real events and argued that the leaders of the church started to misinterpret the Bible at the end of the third century. These assertions are hotly debated by most scholarship. But whether or not the reader agrees with this assessment in whole or in part, this book is nevertheless a provocatively good read and regarded by Kuhn fans as a well-written, concise, and interesting study attempting to explore how and why religion came about.

The Gospel & the Zodiac
Author: Bill Darlison
Publisher: ABRAMS
ISBN: 146830478X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 277
Book Description
“Darlison elucidates the zodiac’s significant place in the Gospels, most specifically in the Book of Mark . . . An intriguing leap into faith” (Kirkus Reviews). For millennia the world has been driven by the differences between the great patriarchal religions. Western civilization—or Christendom, as it was once called—received its values and its confidence from a belief in God, the Father, and Jesus, his only son. But what if this conviction were founded on an error? Who is the man in the factually inconsistent Gospel stories? And who is the man who makes a brief appearance carrying a jar of water? This extraordinary study by a Unitarian minister suggests that Jesus never existed historically; he was simply a representation of an astrological theology—a representation, simply put, of the zodiac sign of Aquarius. In The Gospel & the Zodiac, Rev. Bill Darlison demonstrates that all the other signs are present too, in perfect zodiacal order. The Gospel story is not the product of historians or eyewitnesses, but an older, mystical text produced by an ancient, esoteric school as a guide to the Age of Pisces. Every bit as revelatory and controversial as it sounds, The Gospel & the Zodiac will shake up the religious status quo, and in doing so, provide both a new look at a religious icon and a deeper understanding of the faith that binds millions together. “Darlison begins by looking at different scholarly approaches to the gospels, then outlines his astrological interpretation logically and lucidly, matching the zodiacal signs to the narrative of Mark.” —Fortean Times

The Lost Key to the Scriptures
Author: Alvin Boyd Kuhn

ISBN: 9781684225231
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 68
Book Description
2021 Reprint of the First Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition and not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. In this little-known essay Kuhn analyses Christian orthodoxy and proposes that many falsehoods have crept into mainstream Christianity over the centuries. Kuhn compares Christian orthodoxy with the Greek philosophers and illustrates the similarities and differences them. According to the author, much of the meaning of crucial Christian terminology derives from Greek Platonic, Pythagorean, Orphic and Neo-Platonic philosophies, and behind these the more ancient wisdom-knowledge of the Egyptians, who bore the bright torch of religious light from remote times.
