Are You a Chrisitan or a Constantinian? 04/09/2010
There are many devoutly religious people who find it difficult to accept certain hidden or esoteric elements of "spirituality". That which is considered "occult" (a word which simply means hidden, as in not well known) is shunned as satanic or evil. But few people are aware of why the occult creates such deep-seeded feelings of fear and taboo. While many who profess to be Christians will quickly embrace Jesus as the Son of God, and the Bible as the Word of God many of these same people are unaware of the Constantinian origins of the Bible. Constantine was a Roman emperor who transformed the defunct Roman empire into the new Christianity... that form of Christianity which gave us the Bible. Before Constantine created his new religion - roughly around 325 AD - all major religions including Christianity were steeped in the occult, i.e. those hidden teachings which brought enormous temporal and esoteric benefits to mankind. But Constantine would have none of this. Through the creation of the Nicean Council Constantine was able to suppress all esoteric elements of Christianity and other religions in a move to consolidate his religious, social, and political powers. To practice or even mention things like reincarnation, magic, paganism, etc. was a crime punishable by death. That legacy lives on today as many conscientious Christians still cringe at the mere mention of anything that doesn't appear to be condoned by the Bible. But this was constantine's plan to begin with. There was no power but the emporer, and no religion but the emporer's religion. This was not a spiritual move, but a political one. This legacy of fear and prohibition lives on today with incalculable effetcs. So, if you get spooked at the mention of ancient sciences (yes they are sciences) like astrology, metaphysics, symbolism, sacred geometry, etc. you are a victim of Constantinianism. (Don't try to look that word up... I just coined it so it may be a few years before Webster picks it up) CommentsLeave a Reply | AuthorKeith David Henry ArchivesOctober 2011 CategoriesAll |
