  This talks about Osirus, a person I like.

In these Egyptian texts we are brought face to face with prophecies
concerning a Messiah who was to come.

It was held that �the teacher awaited since the creation of the world�
had not yet been manifested on earth. His coming was to end in his
sacrifice and bring about the regeneration of mankind.

The ancient Egyptian messianic prophecies refer to the Messiah as �The
L-rd of D-ath and Resurrection�.

In course of time these prophecies of the Messiah became paganised by the
substitution of Osiris (the go- of Vegetational Decay and Regeneration)
and other deities.

Osiris then usurped the attributes and functions of the promised Messiah
that had been known in earlier Egyptian prophecy.

Only in the late Egyptian literature (from late in the 18th and early in
the 19th Dynasty) did Osiris and other -ods usurp the functions and
attributes of the Promised One.

That was after re-igious degeneration had set in well and truly.

But originally, the position of Osiris was not messianic. Osiris was at
first no more than an allegorical figurehead, a patron of corn, a
personification of the agricultural seasons. (Stewart The Witness of the
Great Pyramid, 1928, pp. 64,65)

Much, much later he became �a g-d who had been originally a mortal and
had risen from the de-d.�  (E.A. Wallis Budge, The Book of the D-ad.
London: British Museum Publications, 1920)

And only then were the added attributes of the Promised One given to him.

Noted archaeologist Professor B-dge points out:

"The beliefs which were conceived by the Egyptians in their lowest states
of civilization were mingled with those which reveal the existence of high
spir-tual conceptions [at first]." (Bu-ge The -ods of the Egyptians, 1969
Vol. I, p.32)

PURER F-ITH AT THE BEGINNING

Although modern Hinduism recognises a multitude of go-s (possessing
different influences on human affairs), yet the Indian sa-red books
show that originally it had been far otherwise.

Speaking of the Supreme Go- (known in their language as Brahm):

* Of Him whose glory is so great, there is no image. (Veda)
* [He] i-lumines all, delights all, whence all proceeded; that by
  which they live when born, and that to which all must return.
  (Veda)
* He whom the mind alone can perceive; whose essence eludes the
  external organs, who has no visible parts, who exists from eternity�.
  The s-ul of all beings, whom no being can comprehend. (Institutes of
  Menu)

In these passages there is a trace of pantheism beginning to emerge,
but the very language employed bears testimony to the existence among
the Hindus at one period of a far purer fa-th.

Brahm (the one infinite and eternal -od) is just the original Hebrew
Rahm � with the �b� prefixed, which is very frequent in Sanscrit words
derived from Hebrew or Chaldee.

The Hebrew Rahm means �the merciful, or compassionate One�. But Rahm
also means �the Womb�, or �the Bowels� as the seat of compassion.

Now we find such language applied to Brahm, as cannot be accounted for,
except by realising that Brahm had the very same meaning as the Hebrew
Rahm.

Thus we find the g-d Krishna, in one of the Hindu sac-ed books (when
asserting his high dignity as a div-nity, and his identity with the
Supreme) using these words:

�The great Brahm is my Womb, and in it I place my foetus, and from it
is the procreation of all nature. The great Brahm is the Womb of all
the various forms which are conceived in every natural womb.�

It is very clear that Brahm comes from Rahm which means Womb or
Merciful One. Brahm is just the same as Er-Rahman (�the all-merciful
One�), a title applied by the Turks to the Most High.

Thus the Hindus, despite the deterioration of understanding seen today,
once knew the Creator as �the Go- of mercy�, that is, �a just -od and
a rescuer�.

He was also called in India �the victim-man�. (And among the Buddhists
he was commonly addressed as �Sa-ior of the world�. (Mahawanso, xxxi
�apud�. Pococke�s India in Greece, p. 185)

Furthermore, the meaning of Deva (the generic name for �-od� in India)
is similar. Deva originally came from the Chaldean Thav (�Good�).

Thav is also legitimately pronounced Thev and in the emphatic form is
Theva or Thevo (�the Good�). �Th� is frequently pronounced �Dh�. Hence
Deva.

The �v� is frequently dropped (just as �novus� in Latin is �neos� in
Greek). Dheva, or Theva, or Thevo becomes Deva. It also becomes Deo or
Devs� (�-od� in Latin) and Theos (�G-d� in Greek), or Theo-s or Thevo-s.

This reflects the passage in the B-ble that says, �There is none good
but One, that is Go- [Theos � the Good].� (M-tthew 19:17)

GRADUAL INCREASE IN G-DS

Ancient textual evidence shows that the trend was to increase the number
of go-s as time passed, rather than decrease them. (Siegfried H. Horn,
Records of the Past Illuminate the Bib-e, 1975, p. 12)

It was only the later nations who were POLYtheists (worshipping many
-ods).

As an example of how far this trend has developed over the past 4,000
years, it is calculated that today the Hindu rel-gion has 600,000 gods.

Now, are you ready for this? The story is fascinating.

Something BIG occurred - and so earth-shaking, that highly civilized
people who believed in one great -od - the Creator - radically changed
their thinking so as to venerate planets, cats, hawks, snakes and
beetles.

What spectacular event brought this about?

And how could an original, healthy, beneficent relig-ous system
degenerate into practices such as human sa-rifice?

In an email as brief as this, it is impossible to reveal very much
and also provide evidence, but if you are interested, there is a whole
more available. Please go to

You are about to discover one of the most amazing dramas of history.
It reads almost like thriller.

Have you ever wondered:
1. Why there are so many languages?
2. Why there are so many relig-ons?

I should warn you. This may upset a few applecarts. But, after all, if
you want to know the truth...

Are you ready for a scandal?

Oh boy, I'm in for it now!
