The Last Prophecy

Peter Was the Christ

1. The Malachy Prophecy of the Popes

In 1139 Saint Malachy, an Irish archbishop, had a vision while in Rome after having been summoned there by Pope Innocent II. The prophecy essentially predicted the fall of the Catholic Church sometimes in the future, namely after Pope Benedict XVI's papacy.

That was just before the Massacre of Beziers & Cathar Genocide by the Catholic Church ordered by Pope Innocent III in 1209 and probably a warning from God to the Church that this path would eventually lead to its own downfall.

The prophecy was stored in the Vatican Secret Archives and rediscovered in 1590. The first part was likely adulterated prior to its publication. However, the post 1590 segment appears authentic and is coming at a time of great turmoil for the Church. The last pope preceding the fall of the Vatican is described as 'Peter the Roman.' Pope Benedict is now 93. So, the so called End of Days for the Church could just be very close at hand if the prophecy is to be believed.

The Vatican is slowly crumbling under the weight of the paedophilia scandal. While it has been asking forgiveness for the cover up, the Church may just have been sitting on an even bigger one since 2013, a cover up linked to the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI and of not only financial misconduct, but also deep moral corruption involving sexual deviancy and the hiring of male prostitutes for people inside Vatican City.

In the continuing Residential Schools Saga, Canada is seeing more and more of the dead rising from their graves. The US is also hinting at a similar situation (As Canada grapples with residential school legacy, the U.S. looks to its own history). Things do not look good for the papacy.

2. The Other Malachi Prophecy -- The Third Secret of Fatima

This prophecy talks about an apostate heretic pope that would challenge the papacy and rock the very foundations of the Christianity. Three days of darkness would be followed by a deep crisis of faith. As you listen, keep in mind that an antipope is not evil or satanic but an opposing non-canonical pope (i.e. heretic). In the past some antipopes have been supported by large factions of the Church.

This video best explains the prophecy: Did Malachi Martin Leak The Real Third Secret Of Fatima?

3. The Cathar Prophecy of 2021

A thousand years ago, the branch of Christianity that lacked sanctity (the Catholic Church) committed a genocide against the branch that had sanctity.

The last Cathar Perfecti burnt alive by the Catholic Church (1321) predicted that Cathars would return in 700 years (bottom of page) when "the laurel will grow green again." That would be this year, 2021.

The Laurel Has Grown Green Again

Some Cathars survived the genocide by the Catholic Church without anyone apparently knowing. As of this date, August 2, 2021, none of the major sources of information on Catharism (Wikipedia, Cathar.info, the Catholic Church) seem to be aware of the existence of a place on Earth which has a name that literally translates in English to Land of the Cathars.

That land seems to have been hiding in plain sight,

under a cloak of invisibility.

In an Islamic twist, a group (the Holy Brotherhood) built in it an expiatory church that outshines anything at the Vatican and which, unlike the Dome of the Rock story, was successfully consecrated by the Pope.

By pure magic, as in magi, Cathars seem to have a country of their own, Cathar Launia, and a central organization, Vatican 2.0,

fully consecrated by the Catholic Church itself!

Being expiatory, the newly consecrated basilica is even more powerful than the Vatican, which offers the forgiveness of sins. Expiation is the divine power of forgiveness plus the wiping out of sins as if they had never occurred.

That makes the Cathar Vatican

the most powerful institution in Christendom today!

Ironically, the pope who consecrated the Cathar Vatican was the head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith before his papacy. That was the office that was responsible over time for the fight against heresy, which began with the Cathar Genocide and continued as the various Inquisitions, and which is known for having burnt hundreds alive for simply refusing to convert.

The Catholic Church has fallen.

It just does not know it yet!

4. The Jewish Prophecies

According to Jewish prophecies, the messiah would be Immanuel, meaning 'El (God) with us' and suggesting that he/she would be an angel as their names usually end with el (e.g. Gabriel, Michael, Raphael, Uriel, etc.). Jesus is not the name of an angel.

The messiah would also be of Bethlehem in Judea. Jesus is said to be of Nazareth in Israel.

According to the Book of Enoch, Jesus would be a Nephilim, being the son of a god born to a human woman. Nephilims were sons of the fallen angels who rebelled against God under the leadership of Satanael.

5. The Christ vs Antichrist Prophecy

The word Christ in Christianity comes from a Greek word meaning anointed, or having sanctity. A thousand years ago, the branch of Christianity that had sanctity (Catharism) was destroyed by the main branch of Christianity which, by its own admission, lacked sanctity.

Mark 13:22 'for false christs and false prophets will arise, and will provide signs and wonders, in order to mislead' (Bible Gateway).

The true battle between Cathars and Cathols was

Christ vs the Antichrist,

Sanctity vs the Lack of Sanctity.

The story becomes...

A 1,000 years ago, the forces of the Antichrist and the Christ faced off, with the latter losing. A 1,000 years later (2021), the forces of the Christ (the branch that had sanctity) are back and re-emerging with their own Vatican, fully consecrated by the Papacy, and exposing the truth, as per the prophecy.

6. Jesus the Prophet & Jesus the Messiah

Most scholars agree that Jesus was an apocalyptic preacher. He preached that the end of the world was coming. The Christian clergy believes he was also the messiah. From Bible Gateway:

Matthew 24:3 "And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, tell us, when shall these things be and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?"

Matthew 24:29 "Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken."

Matthew 24:30 "And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory."

Matthew 24:31 "And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other."

"Truly I say to you,

this generation will not pass away until all these things take place." (Mark 13:30)

Jesus clearly prophesied that the end of the world would happen within a few decades at most. It did not. He was not a prophet. Within the same time frame, the messiah would resurrect the good and destroy evil, ushering an era of peace. That did not happen either. We have built thousand of nukes since then; we are war with Russia and on the brink of one with China; we are defunding the police; crime is rampant....

Jesus was neither a prophet nor a messiah.

7. Jesus the Son of God

According to scriptures, both Jesus and Peter performed miracles and died crucified. Which one was the Christ?

The earliest gospel was that of Mark (AD 65-70). Written in Greek, it begins with John baptising Jesus and ends at Mark 16:8 with Mary finding Jesus's tomb empty (of him). No virgin birth (evidence of divinity), no resurrection per se--an empty tomb not being proof of it--no post-crucifixion sighting (actual evidence of resurrection), and no ascension. Mark 16:9-20 was fraudulently added later to some translations of the Bible.

There was no virgin birth, no resurrection per se,

no post-crucifixion sighting, and no ascension in the first gospel.  These are all pillars of Christianity.

It is unthinkable that a story about Jesus,

written some 30 years after his death, would not have these.

The Gospel of Matthew (AD 80-90), despite his being a disciple, is not an original first-hand account but a rewrite of Mark's with massive embellishments, among them the virgin birth like Melchizedek (divine priesthood) and sightings after his death. Mark could only have known about them had they taken place! The embellishments essentially raised Jesus to the status of God and empowered the Church immensely.

'Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners...' (Hail Mary prayer).

Luke's gospel (AD 85) is based on Matthew's, hence problematic. However, he may not have known that parts of Matthew's accounts were false, and his gospel, together with the book of Acts (also believed to have been authored by Luke), may still contain useful information as to the baptism with the Spirit as well as the importance of Peter following the crucifixion.

Luke 24:49 describes Jesus's last words just before he ascended to Heaven as telling his disciples to stay in Jerusalem till they are 'clothed with power from on high,' a reference to receiving the Holy Spirit. This is corroborated in Acts 1 and Acts 2 (the Pentecost) where Peter and the apostles receive the Spirit, after his death. This is further supported by Acts 8 where Peter bestows the Spirit. John 20:19-23 asserts that Jesus breathed the Holy Spirit onto his disciples. However, this contradicts Luke 24:49 and Acts 1:4 and 1:5 and is not corroborated in any other gospel while the Pentecost is commemorated annually to this day.

As late as 50 years after Jesus's death, no gospel had claimed that he had baptized anyone with the Spirit.

His last act should have been to baptize his disciples, but he did not, suggesting he did not himelsf have to power of the Spirit.

John's gospel (AD 90-100) is an evangelical book, a work of advocacy rather than a historical account. It is replete with additions, exaggerations, and biased interpretations typical of preachers as opposed to impartial historians. So are many of the various epistles of the New Testament. It is the only gospel telling the stories of Jesus turning water into wine and of Lazarus being resurrected, both famous miracles.

There are 4 gospels but only 2 narratives (Mark's and John's) as Matthew's and Luke's works are embellished versions of Mark's story (synoptic gospels). The latter has 22 miracles; they add to it respectively 5 and 8 new ones ("The 37 Miracles of Jesus in Chronological Order." Sunny Hills Church, retrieved 22 November 2024, https://sunnyhillschurch.com/3301/the-37-miracles-of-jesus-in-chronological-order/.). Neither narrative includes the miraculous birth, confirming the fraudulence of Matthew's gospel.

The synoptic narrative contains 31 different miracles. John's features only 8, 6 of which are not in any other gospel, hence likely to be fraudulent. As the last gospel, John's would normally be the most comprehensive. It matches only 2 miracles of the synoptic narrative, leaving 29 out of 31 as potentially fraudulent. Furthermore, one of the two (Mark 6:33-44) does not actually describe Jesus doing anything miraculous, leaving only 1 (Mark 6:45-52), which is told in only 3 of 4 gospels and has significant discrepancies between two of them. If 29 out of 30 miracles (96.6%) were probably fraudulent, it is also likely false.

The resurrection is absolutely central to Christianity. There were no post-crucifixion sightings in Mark. Matthew and Luke embellished their gospels with respectively 2 (Matthew 28:8-10, Matthew 28:16-20) and 3 sightings (Luke 24:13-31, Luke 24:30-34, Luke 24:50-51). John added another 4 (John 20:11-18, John 20:19-25, John 20:26-29, John 21:1-14). As none of the 9 sightings match each other, in addition to their not being in Mark's original text, they are likely to be all fraudulent.

The Ascension, which occurred in the infamous town of Bethany (see below) and is fundamental to Christianity, is absent from the first two gospels, Mark's and Matthew's, hence very likely to be a fraudulent addition.

The gospels taught by the Church were highly corrupted, if based on a historical figure. As the embellishments made the Jesus story and the Church much more powerful, the corruption was likely for power.

Despite the above and the fact that all gospels are unsigned and of unconfirmed authorship,

the Church routinely refers to them as the Word of God!

8. The Gospel of Peter

Like Jesus, Peter preached, made miracles, resurrected someone (Tabitha, Acts 9:36), healed the sick, suffered, and died of crucifixion. He even walked on water according to Matthew (Matthew 14:22–34). He was the widely recognized leader of the apostles and the Church after Jesus died and held the Keys of Heaven.

"The primacy of the bishop of Rome is largely derived from his role as the apostolic successor to Saint Peter, to whom primacy was conferred by Jesus, who gave Peter the Keys of Heaven..." ("Pope." Wikipedia, 28 January 2024, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope.).

The Gospel of Peter suggests that the resurrection was faked. In the night before the visit by Mary Magdalene, two men came, dragged a third (Jesus) out of the tomb, while a fourth carrying the cross followed. The fourth would therefore have been inside the tomb with Jesus and rolled the stone out from the inside. Later, a fifth man went into the cave, presumably the young man that Mary saw. This fits perfectly with Mark's gospel. As such, Peter's narrative seem to be a natural companion to Mark's writings (see also Mark’s Relationship With Peter Was the Foundation for His Gospel).

Presumably, Jesus faked his death on the cross. He was entombed with someone to tend to his wounds with the intention of reappearing later to his disciples as if returning from the dead.

According to Mark, the last words of Jesus were: “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?” Jesus cannot be the anointed (i.e. the Christ) if God has forsaken him, quite the opposite.

Jesus was not the Christ.

The Gospel of Peter (3-42) also states: "And they heard a voice from the heavens, saying, 'Have you proclaimed [preached] to those who sleep?' And a response was heard from the cross: 'Yes!'" ("The Gospel of Peter." Gospels.net, n.d., https://www.gospels.net/peter.). Those sleeping were the guards, who were therefore Christians, and the man entombed with Jesus was a preacher, making some of the early ministers and converts complicit in the fraud. In fact, Pilate had provided guards for the tomb to specifically prevent people from stealing the body and claiming resurrection (Matthew 27:62-66).

Jesus knew that Judas would betray him presumably not because he, himself, was a prophet but because he had planned it. This is supported by Jesus's anointing by Mary of Bethany (believed to be a prostitute) instead of by the Spirit and the insistence that he had to fulfill the scriptures (Mark 14:3 & 14:49). Incidentally, Lazarus was actually a friend of Jesus and Mary's brother, significantly increasing the odds of his resurrection having been faked. Both events occur shortly before Jesus's arrest. In the Gospel of Judas, which reports on conversations happening only days before Jesus's arrest, his betrayal was described as if by design.

Of all the events that transpired 2,000 years ago, two major religions presumably emerged. The main one seems to be based on a fraud, a blasphemy, a planned faking of the resurrection, and a god that appears to despise women and whose first fruits are virgin males (Revelation 14:4).

The end game in John's prophecy is the gift of the Spirit. In Acts 8:14-24 Peter together with John are described as laying hands on someone who then receives the Spirit.

Peter had the power to give the Holy Spirit.

Peter renounced Jesus three times according to the Bible. Presumably, he did not want any part in a massive blasphemy. He went on to build a church based on God the Spirit.

The corrupt eventually prevailed. At the First Council of Nicaea (AD 325) the Conference of Bishops decided to eradicate the idea of reincarnation*. All references to it and copies of Peter's gospel would have been destroyed in its wake, except for one successfully hidden for two thousand years by the Essenes (the Dead Sea Scrolls). How could the first pope and leader of the Church leave no official gospel? 1 Peter & 2 Peter are believed to be inauthentic by most scholars.

[* from a personal source]

How did Peter, a guy who renounced Jesus the Son of God, end up with the Keys of Heaven and uncontested leader of the Church (at least as far as the papacy is concerned)?

If you are waiting for the resurrection,

you may have to wait for a long time.

If you want to go to Heaven,

Peter is the one who has the keys!

Simon Magus (the 'bad Samaritan') was a religious leader who converted people through trickery. In Acts 8, he offered money to Peter for the power of the Spirit but was rejected, suggesting it was real. In the apocryphal Acts of Peter, Simon's deception is exposed when Peter, with 'God's magic,' crashes him while he attempts flying.

By renouncing Jesus three times,

Peter became an apostle (apost-asy, i.e. apostolic).

After Jesus's death, his disciples became known as apostles.*

Peter followed the truth.

His gospel exposed the trickery of Jesus just as his acts did that of Simon.

Christianity promises the Resurrection of the Dead.

If Jesus did not himself resurrect, there is no reason to believe that

the Resurrection of the Dead can or will ever occur.

Many have risen from a coma or a brief death,

but there is not one single proven instance

in history of a decomposed body coming back to life.

[* The word 'apostle' is used only once in Mark's and Matthew's gospels and never in John's despite having been written last. Compare this to 'disciple.']

Christianity based its narrative on secondary gospels whose authorship is uncertain and whose source, Mark, was not a disciple or original apostle. It does not describe a story of divinity, resurrection, and bestowing of the Spirit by Jesus. Of them, only one was based on a first-hand account of an apostle, John's.

The papal canon relies on secondary anonymous sources.

It has nothing written by Jesus--the central figure of Christianity--and

only two letters from Peter (believed by scholars to be inauthentic),

the second most important figure in Christendom

and leader of Jesus's apostles and the early Church after his death.

The gospels of Peter (which shows Jesus faking the resurrection), Mary, Thomas (Jesus's sayings), and Judas (Gospels.net), on the other hand, are all based on people who had known Jesus personally (apostles and Mary) and contain essentially no accounts of miracles. We know of this primary canon because these eyewitness accounts were hidden by various sources and rediscovered in the last 200 years, not because of the Church had carefully preserved them in its archives.

The Primary Canon is based on

direct apostolic eyewitness accounts.

The papal canon is based on anonymous secondary sources

full of fantastical stories of miracles.

Over the centuries, science has demonstrated that miracles that

defy the laws of physics cannot happen in a real world.

9. The Lord of Heaven

This brings us to Gerasa (Gadara in original version) where Jesus meets a naked man who lived in a cemetery and was possessed by a legion of demons (Mark 5). He attempts to exorcise him, but at their suggestion not to send them out of the region, he sends them instead into pigs, which immediately run over a cliff and die, resulting in a massive loss of food and revenue for the local gentile community and leading to his expulsion from the region and being told never to come back. In Mark 14, a young man tries to follow after Jesus is arrested at Gethsemane, but, in a struggle with the guards, loses his garment before getting away naked.

In Gerasa Jesus, the Son of God,

was mocked and sent packing.

Demonology 101: Do not follow the advice of demons! Instead of being forced out of the flesh (an exorcism), Jesus 'gave them permission' to enter pigs. After having been released by death, the 2,000 demons were free to possess any human, 2,000 of them instead of just one, a terrifying prospect for the locals.

For someone to still be standing while being possessed by 2,000 demons points to a person of extraordinary strength, perhaps an angel. He was not possessed because he was weak but presumably because he was their archenemy. He asked to follow Jesus, but instead the latter made him his witness for the Decapolis region, i.e. a senior figure equivalent to his disciples (see Acts 1). Note that the apostles' elevation to 'witnesses' in Acts may be an addition as the event is not reported in any of the gospels, leaving the Gerasene as perhaps the only witness officially appointed by Jesus.

The Decapolis was part Nabataean. The two top gods of the Nabataean pantheon were Dushara (Lord of the Mountains or Dushara from Petra, also known as Roman Dis Pater, Rex Infernus, and Hades) and Baalshamin, the Lord of Heaven (Roman Ju-piter, or Sky Peter). Peter had the keys to Heaven! Peter is also the masculine of Petra, the name of the Nabataean capital.

Dushara was divinely associated with justice, hence Zedekian (divine priesthood). The last Zedek to be found in the Bible was Adonizedek (meaning king of justice), the King of Jerusalem who died in a genocide where 12,000 men and woman were killed by Israelites under Joshua. The town where it happened is now called Ai (Canaan), or heap of ruins.

Strangely enough, the Gerasene episode was interpreted by Thomas Aquinas (a foremost Dominican medieval theologian) as Christians having "no duty to animals", which explains why Christianity dropped the ball on the environment.

The Three Branches of Christianity

From the maelstrom of first century Christianity emerged three branches (Christian Denominations Family Tree). The Jewish Christian branch followed Mosaic laws and customs. It went extinct but formed part of the foundations of Islam later on.

The main branch was led by Paul, formerly Saul, a persecutor of Christians (see Acts 8). Persecution at that time ranged from expulsions and imprisonment to torture and execution. It followed the corrupt Gospel of Matthew, himself, an ex-tax collector. Paul (neither a disciple nor an apostle) went from anti-Christian persecutor (sending many to be tortured and killed) to leading Christianity after a conversion preceded by three days of darkness (blindness). You would expect a new convert to start at the bottom, especially if they were complicit in torture and murder. This Paulinist-Matthewsian branch, which ends with an apocalypse, was religious and, eventually, the one mainly professed by the Catholic Church.

The Gnostic branch was connected to Peter and the Essenes who had particular interests in angels and spirits. Acts 2 clearly connects Peter to the Spirit and leadership of the Twelve. Acts 8: 9-25 (Simon Magus) describes Peter bestowing the Spirit onto people by laying hands on them. So, Peter would have been the one baptising with the Spirit that John the Baptist prophesied about, not Jesus. This Peterian Pentecostal branch was spiritual and probably the main root of Catharism, the other half of Christianity. The story becomes...

John the Baptist was the prophet.

The baptism with the Spirit was the prophecy (Mark 1:8).

John never prophesied the coming of the son of God.

Jesus was a follower of John.

He spoke of his prophecy but neither originated it nor fulfilled it.

He never gave the Spirit to anyone!

Peter was the one who fulfilled the prophecy

by bestowing the Spirit (Acts 8).

He would have been the anointed one.

The facts that Jesus faked the crucifixion/resurrection

and became worshipped as God suggest that

he took the deal when tempted in the wilderness.

And, so did many who chose power

and taught scriptures that were fraudulent.

About 900 years after the First Council of Nicaea, Pope Innocent III declared a war against heresy and led the Catholic Church into committing a genocide against the Cathars (Peter's Apostolic Spiritual Church which followed the Spirit and rejected the resurrection), a genocide that begins with the massacre of 20,000 innocents (pacifist vegetarians) "regardless of rank, age, or sex" and ends after several hundred years of persecution of the Cathars and others (pagans, spirituals, healers, scientists, etc.) with the last Inquisition.

Assuming families of four, 10,000 children were murdered in the Beziers Massacre alone. How do you kill 5-year-olds, trample them with horses and leave them to die slowly, bash their heads with stones, or did the Cistercian blades cut their small bodies in half?

10. The Fall of Gabriel

Luke's gospel names Gabriel as the angel that announced to Mary she would conceive a son by the Holy Spirit (Luke 1:26-38). If miracles don't exist, as science would suggest, the story really is:

'Archangel Gabriel visits Mary; nine months later she gives birth to a son,' making Gabriel a fallen angel. In Islam, Gabriel (Jibril or Jibrail) is held to be the Holy Spirit and the angel who imparted the Koran to prophet Muhammad!

The Truth About Islam

Islam was created some 600 years after Christianity began. It recognizes Jesus as a prophet but rejects his divinity and the resurrection. Some modern scholars have done an excellent job of looking at historical evidence for Islam, among them, Al Fadi (Founder of CIRA International, Center for Islamic Research and Awareness), Dr. Jay Smith (PfanderFilms), a scholar known for his focus on Islamic polemics, and Dan Gibson, a Canadian historian specializing in the 'early history of Arabia and Islam.'

The following is a selection of videos that provides a good overview for Muslims and others of the problems with the standard Islamic narrative. While the titles may appear be similar, each addresses specific points. More details are available at their websites and Youtube channels.

"Intro to Dan Gibson - Early Islamic History Ep. 1"

A short introduction. Muhammad 'had nothing to do' with the emergence of Islam. He was a 'raider,' a 'brigand.' The Koran is based on oral traditions, which are generally embellished.

"Dan Gibson's Latest Discoveries 4 - Origin of the Quran"

The truth about the origin of the Koran.

"The Unknown History of Islam 01 - Timeline of Islam"

How the Koran was 'man-made' and put together 201 years after Muhammad's passing. The Hadith itself was assembled after 240 years from thousands of sayings and acts of Muhammad, of which only 2% were kept.

"The Unknown History of Islam 04 - Modern Mecca, Ancient Qibla"

The current Mecca has no artifacts or ruins normally associated with a historical city. Based on the qiblas (prayer direction) in early mosques, the original Kaaba was in Petra, not southern Arabia.

"The Qur’an’s FAKE History! - Creating the Qur’an with Dr. Jay - Episode 30"

"No first-century (after Muhammad) witness ever mentions the Qur’an or any sort of text that was shared among Allah’s followers. Besides that, the histories of the time never mention Muhammad. That is certainly bizarre if he was indeed a real prophet.

"Al Fadi interviews Jay on NEW DISTURBING RESEARCH on the Qur'an's Qira'ats (pt-1)"

There were and still are several Korans. In the standard Islamic narrative, the Koran is supposedly perfect and eternal.

"Islam is based on IDOLATRY! - More Meccan Problems with Dr. Jay - Episode 7"

The black stone of Kaaba, believed to have the power of redeeming sins, is central to Islam. A stone is an inanimate object. The worship of objects is pure idolatry.

"4 reasons why MUHAMMAD cannot be a BIBLICAL PROPHET!"

Muhammad was a descendant of Ishmael, but God's covenant was the line of Isaac, the true son of Abraham. The Koranic Jesus does not have the same name and story as in the Bible. Muhammad did not do any miracle or prophecy and did not know the name YHWH of the Old Testament.

"The Satanic Verses - Fact or Fiction? Al Fadi & Rob Christian"

The controversy stemmed from Muhammad second-guessing himself and removing several verses of the Koran claiming he had been deceived by Satan. This puts the whole Koran into question... how many other instances of Satanic verses could there be?

Fallen Angels

When angels fall from Heaven, their world becomes mundane or materialistic from being cut off from a higher spiritual source. The Eucharist, a Christian ritual representing the communion with God, reflects that. At the last supper (Mark 14:22-24), Jesus gives a piece of bread to his disciples stating that it represented his body. He then raises his glass, saying that the wine represented his blood.

Both are physical matter, rather than part material part spirit as in body and soul or body and spirit. The bread represents the material body, but the wine fails to point to the spirit, the connection to God. Compare this to the prophecy of John, who himself baptised with material water, that one mightier than him would do so with the Holy Spirit.

Ironically, wine is a low-alcohol spirit.

A central part of Islam is the veneration of the Black Stone of Mecca. The ritual goes back to pre-Islamic times, and Muslims believe that touching the stone can erase sins. Physical objects certainly cannot forgive sins. In Abrahamic religions, only God or appropriate religious appointees can absolve transgressions. Furthermore, the ritual would be bypassing God's judgement and sacrilegious for it.

The forgiveness of sins is a divine prerogative.

The worship of inanimate objects in the belief that

they have divine powers is pure idolatry.

The traditions that Muslims follow have led them to venerate a material object.

Ironically, the name Peter,

as in the guy who has the Keys of Heaven,

means stone.

The scriptures they call the 'word of God' are anything but. The gospels may be 96.6% false. The Koran may have been dictated by a fallen angel, and the veracity of its contents is highly questionable as are many of the facts concerning Muhammad. Without authoritative scriptures, a religion has no foundation, and those that profess them as if they were the truth are false leaders.

On the authority of scriptures they call the 'word of God,'

Church leaders have killed hundreds of thousands of innocent Cathars

and burnt their ascetic leaders at the stake (The Cathar Genocide).

On the authority of scriptures they call the 'word of God,'

Jihadists and Islamists murder innocents and profess genocide

with little if any condemnation from Muslim clerics.

It is said about Satan that when he fell from Heaven

he took a third (33%) of the angels with him.

It is estimated that in 2022 about 31.6% of the world

population were Christians and 25.8% were Muslim (Statista).

11. The Laurel Growing Green Again

There are pockets of Cathars here in there in Northern Italy, France, and Spain still practicing their religion but mostly underground, and very likely some secret societies as well. Many on the Perfecti path found safety among the Franciscan friars, an order created by Francis of Assisi in 1209, the year of the Beziers Massacre.

They were of the more controversial spiritual faction of the Franciscans and believed in the vow of poverty at a time when the papacy was filthy rich and powerful, in science, and in three epoch: the Age of the Father, the Age of the Son, and the Age of the Spirit which began in 1260 and in which an "Order of the Just, composed of contemplatives and preachers, would supersede the institutional worldly Church" (Esoterica, How Alchemy was a Weapon Against the Anti-Christ - the Apocalyptic Prophecies of John of Rupescissa). The final showdown between good and evil would feature an angelic pope facing off against the Antichrist.

Many Cathars were made landless by the Catholic crusade and ended up as migrant labour not always sure when they would eat--a cruel fate especially for the children. They would be virtually indistinguishable from today's Roma, and perhaps part of them also. Isn't it the fate you would expect to befall the 'children of God' in a profane world?

Like many of the destitute of Europe, an unknown number of them probably moved to North America after its discovery, hoping for a second chance. Many must have ended up in Quebec (the Invisible Minority of Canada), or other French-speaking parts of the continent. Quebec's national day on June 24th honours John the Baptist. Its two major shrines honour Joseph (Oratoire Saint Joseph) and Mary Magdalene (Cap de la Madeleine). In contrast, the Bogomils, a sister religion, honours the 'Blessed Virgin.'

Continues under the Angelicals tab above.
