Christ, Savior of the World, a painting by Leonardo da Vinci sold at auction for a record $450 million on Wednesday, 11.15.17, making it the most expensive piece of art in known History. Called the "Salvator Mundi," Italian for "Savior of the World," the painting was created around 1500 and shows Christ in Renaissance-style robes, his right hand raised in blessing as his left hand holds a mysterious translucent sphere. Dr. Martin Kemp, Emeritus Professor of the History of Art at the University of Oxford, recalled of his time gazing at the painting in person. “It wasn’t like an ordinary sphere. It looked like rock crystal. ... It’s not the normal ‘Mundi’ sphere. This is the sphere of the fixed stars, of the Cosmos. Leonardo transmuted it from being a Savior of the World to being a Savior of the Cosmos.” Another meaningful observation is that unlike with quartz crystal, there is no polarization of light – the image of the hand holding the sphere is seen clearly without distortion. This represents a meaningful metaphor for Truth – what is seen when light illuminates without distortion.

Could this historic event be what Carl Jung called a “synchronicity”, a meaningful occurrence (or convergence of occurrences) that manifest with no apparent causal relationships yet intuitively seem to be meaningfully related to current events?

The Christ Mythology is the Foundation of Western Culture

 

In the earliest Christian manuscripts, the Greek word for "Christ" was "Chrēstós”, which means useful, benevolent, or “kind one."

 

For the past 2000 years, Christ represents the composite hero of Western culture as the Truthful Individual who acts upon the truth.

 

“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” – John 8:32 KJV

 

This metaphorical truth is factual whether you believe or not in God and/or Jesus Christ as a historical figure. It is the mythos upon which Western culture was founded and continues to exist.

 

This is not a religious statement, but rather one based on logic and reason (logos).

If we look past the religious deceptions, we see that Christ’s most important teachings to mankind were as follows:

 

1) Christ used free will to refuse conscription (selling one’s soul) because most evil in this world originates from a few people, “the Authorities,” forcing others to commit violence against the innocent.

2) Christ taught to treat others as we would expect to be treated (the Golden Rule).

3) Christ exposed the hypocrisy of the scribes and Pharisees.

4) Christ exposed the corruption of the money changers.

5) Christ’s path to the truth was through quiet discernment.

 

The very existence of Orthodox Christianity and the State itself depend on obscuring these fundamental Truths.

>Christ’s path to the truth was through quiet discernment.

 

From the Gospel of Matthew, Christ said:

“When you pray, don’t be like the hypocrites who love to pray publicly on street corners and in the synagogues where everyone can see them. I tell you the truth that is all the reward they will ever get. But when you pray, go away by yourself, shut the door behind you, and pray to your Father in private. Then your Father, who sees everything, will reward you.”

Christ said that “THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS INSIDE YOU”

 

ANCIENT SYRIAC GOSPEL VERIFIES THE CORRECT TRANSLATION

http://web.archive.org/web/20160203143739/http:/syrcom.cua.edu/Hugoye/Vol12No2/HV12N2Ramelli.pdf

 

Excerpt: “Christ’s declaration that the Kingdom of God is an interior reality is perfectly appropriate to the addressees of this logion, since the Pharisees are notoriously accused by Christ precisely of giving importance only to exteriority, formal practices and human glory. Christ, instead, emphasizes that God’s Kingdom is interior, invisible, and impossible to locate in one place or another, in that it is of a spiritual nature.”

THANKS FOR SHARING YOUR PERSPECTIVE. MANY OF THE POINTS THAT YOU RAISE I AGREE ARE PROBLEMS FOR MODERN CHRISTIANTY, PARTICULARLY THE EVANGELICAL STRAIN.

 

HOWEVER, NONE OF THEM DEVALUE THE SIGNIFICANCE OF CHRIST AS THE IDEAL ROLE MODEL FOR WESTERN CULTURE. AS I SAID, HE IS THE COMPOSITE HERO OF THE WEST. THAT HIS TEACHINGS HAVE ZOROASTRIAN, JEWISH, AND EASTERN (CONFUSIOUS) ORIGINS ONLY STRENGTHENS CHRIST'S MYTHOLOGICAL IMPORTANCE TO THE WEST.

NO DISRESPECT TO YOU, BUT I FOUND THE VIDEO A BIT DIFFICULT TO FOLLOW. BUT, THE REAL CLUE THAT THIS WAS DISINFORMATION WAS WHEN THE TOP BANNER READ "FREE WILL IS ILLUSURY" AT 1:28. SO IN PROTEST, I EXECUTED MY FREE WILL TO END THE "CASINO-LIKE" VIDEO AND MOVE ON. MY ADVICE IS TO DROP THE FLAT EARTH BELIEF. IT IS PSYOP DECEPTION THAT PROPVIDES NOTHING FOR HUMANITY.

THANKS FOR RESPONDING.

I am very fond of the golden rule teachings of Hillel the Elder (c. 110 BC – 10 AD) stating “What is hateful to you, do not do to your fellow: this is the whole Torah; the rest is the explanation; go and learn.”

I have traced the origins of “free will” as taught by Christ back several thousand years to Zarathustra. You seem very knowledgable about Torah, so I am curious what it has to say about free will. thx
