The Bible has highly occultic meanings and motifs...?

Question

The new testament has lots of esoteric themes. The crucifixion is a description of a mystery religion intiation. In the mystery religions (most notably mithraism) an initiate is forced to have a Near Death experience, causing their spirit to go into the depths of the nether world for 3 DAYS, and then waking up to be "Illuminated" or Enlightened. Jesus' initiation is very similar. Jesus represents the sun god, and the sun represents illumination.

The letters of Paul have lots of mystic and gnostic teachings. And Jesus was very likely an initiate. Though one must research the New Testament themselves cause the rabbit hole is really deep. Thus Christianity in the beginning was the mystery religion of illumination revealed, as said by neoplatonist philosopher Hypatia who said that Jesus' teaching could lead to esoteric enlightenment. Though emperor Thesius ordered her to be killed so the Chruch could change the real teachings of the mystic Jesus into a religion of ignorance and control.

Moses' five books of the Bible (Genesis-Deuteronomy) contains a lot of Egyptian mystic wisdom.David Rohl has found out Moses had not lived aaround Ramses II but around the time of 1540 BC, before the monotheist pharoah Aneckhaten, showing Moses monotheism had originated from the Egyptian mystery religion. Was not Moses a member of the Egyptian royal family? That means he was an initiate into the Egyptian mysteries.

Thus the Bible is overly filled with mysticism and occult.

So what does one have to say about this? An atheist could say it is just superstitious hogwash, but were not many notable scienctists mystic? Aren't scientists and researchers nowadays just building upon the work of mystics of long ago? Okay Einstien was not mysitc. But yet Newton, Bacon, and Carl Jung/Freus and many others were mystic. And also Renaisssance men/women were not just Christian, but mystics, and Enlightenment philosophes were mystic as well.

Answer 1

93,



Because occultism in the spiritual vein tends to be based off of religious texts. The reason it has so much occultism in it, is because Christians divined such statemens from it, just like others do to other texts. Hell, you can take some out of almost any book.



"Gnosticism is a flawed system. Real teachings come from within."



You realize you just said real teachings come from the philosophy is flawed, right? Have you done anything about Gnosticism in any of it's veins? With a statement like this, I would assume not.
