HISTORICAL FOUNDATIONS OF CHRISTIANITY Spread of Christianity & Islam in Africa - ppt download The Spread of Christianity - My Middle Ages Portfolio
  • The Roman Empire and the Bible combine.  Constantine stood out because he became a Christian and unabashedly made Jesus the patron of his army. By 313, just two contenders remained, Constantine and Lucinids. The two jointly issued the Edict of Milan, which made Christianity a legal religion and officially ended the persecution.  The Jews have no homeland, and no temple.
  • Early Christianity was a diverse phenomenon. This diversity also appears within the New Testament.  Apocalyptic literature appears in both early Judaism and early Christianity. It was one manifestation of the typical eschatological trends of the time and the expectation of a crisis in world history.
  • Many apocalypses were written in the name of and from the perspective of a major religious figure of the past: MosesElijahEnoch or some other figure “foresees” in the fictitious time of composition the events of the real time of writing.
  • The Old Testament prophesied, and the New Testament fulfilled the           prophesies. The holy book of the first Christians was the collection of Jewish writings that Christians call the Old Testament. In particular the Greek translation of the Old Testament – the Septuagint – achieved a strong position among Christians.
  • The New Testament is a collection of early Christian literature, which together with the Old Testament forms the Holy Scriptures of the Christian churches. The origin of the New Testament was a multi-stage process.  At the end of the second century it began to be evident which of these writings would be accepted as part of the New Testament and which would remain outside it. There was still some controversy in the West over the status of the Letter to the Hebrews and in the East over the status of the Revelation of John. In addition, the fate of the so-called catholic epistles, that is, the letters of Peter, John, James and Jude, was thoroughly considered in the 3rd and 4th centuries. It was finally decided to include them
  • In its present form the NT comprises 27 books, the main part of which is comprised by the four Gospels, which tell of the life and teaching of Jesus, and a number of letters and epistolary writings. In addition, the NT includes a book called The Acts of the Apostles, which tells the story of the first Christians, and the apocalyptic work The Revelation of John.
  • The books of the NT were written in Greek, and they date from c.50-150 A.D.   in Christian circles and on the fringes of the church there were interpretations of Christianity which the mainline church completely rejected. It also rejected the literature that promoted such ideas. One such tendency was Gnosticism.
  • Bibles of Constantine were in the original Greek language commissioned in 331 by Constantine.
  • Translations of the Christian Bible are canonized.  The Jews replaced the Hellenized version that was used by the Christians.  The New Testament is written in  Greek, the quality of which varies from writer to writer. The language of some New Testament books has been influenced by the fact that the mother tongue of Jesus and his first disciples was not Greek but Aramaic.
  • In the New Testament the word gospel always means the oral preaching of the Christian message of salvation. The oldest manuscripts containing the whole New Testament are from the 4th century. The oldest known fragment of the New Testament is from the first half of the 2nd century, a copy of a passage from John’s Gospel. The original Greek version of the New Testament was translated into Latin. Narrative Gospels are thematic descriptions of the life and work of Jesus.
  • Jerome. In 382 Pope Damascus commissioned Jerome, the leading biblical scholar of his day, to produce an acceptable Latin version of the Bible from the various translations then being used. His revised Latin translation of the Gospels appeared about 383.  Jerome’s version lasted for 1,000 years.  Latin became the language for the Holy Roman church.  
    Rome had taken over Greek cultures.  Paul wrote in Greek.  The military used Latin.  North Africa Latinized first.    Coptic and Syrian language translations came soon after.  Followed by Armenian, Georgian, and Ethiopian  versions.  Persian and Asia Minor versions were next.

  • Every symmetry physics laws leads to a conservation law, and every conservation law arises from a symmetry in the laws of physics.  
  • THE LAW THAT CONTROLS ALL PARTICLE INTERACTIONS IS THIS:
  • ALL THINGS ARE TRIUNE, WITH BINARY INTERACTIVES.  THIS IS THE LINKAGE BETWEEN MATTER AND FORCE CARRYING PARTICLES. FERMIONS AND BOSONS control THE LINKAGE BETWEEN THE PARTICLE ZOO. 
  • THE REALITY OF HOW LIFE FORMS CAME ABOUT ON THIS REMOTE BLUE MARBLE IS THIS:  THE EVENT ORIGINATOR WROTE THE CODE, PRODUCED THE BLUEPRINT, AND USED AN EVOLVEMENT PROCESS TO OBTAIN THE REQUISITE RESULT.  IT’S ALL JUST A BINARY SOFTWARE PROGRAM.  
  • IT’S ALL ABOUT THE CODE THAT YOU START WITH.
  • THE DESIGNER/CREATOR’S PROCESS : (recap).
  • 1ST: Write the code for the upcoming big bang that will create another universe.
  • (One universe does not an infinity make.)
  • 2nd:  Write the code for the design and evolvement for all intended results as the event unfolds.
  • ( One event does not an eternity make).
  • 3rd:  Set the event in motion.
  • (All things are triune, with binary interactives).
  • 4th:  Monitor, fine-tune, adjust, and select out on-going.
  • 5th: Use DESIGN AND EVOLVE  as the process.  Write a separately coded blueprint for the consciousness of the known thought reposers.
    • 6th: It’s not the people, it’s the event.
    • 7th:  Harvesting new crops of known thought reposers will be the intended result.
      • ONE EVENT DOES NOT AN ETERNITY MAKE.
      • ONE UNIVERSE DOES NOT AN INFINITY MAKE.
      • EVOLUTION IS ONLY PART OF THE PROCESS USED.
      • ALL THINGS ARE TRIUNE, WITH BINARY INTERACTIVES.
      • BEYOND GOOD AND EVIL IS ONLY GOOD.
      • ITS NOT THE PEOPLE, ITS THE EVENT.
      • GET BACK TO WHERE YOU ONCE BELONGED.
      • IN THE END, CHOICES ARE NEVER FREE.
      • WHAT TO DO, IS UP TO YOU. 
      •   GETTING BEYOND EVIL IS A START.

    • The reality of the unseen is beyond your ken. It resides on the backside of the space-time continuum.

    • Symmetry is the casual structure built into the creation module.  The creation module has a two-way arrow of time that is built into it.  All current information is always passed back into the versatile storage unit.  These informational totals can’t be changed or deleted.
    • The closed sub-atomic quantum system is a duplicate of the macro quantum system.  The two systems interact on a binary basis.
  • The triune combined functions of consciousness, quantum gravity, and quantum entanglement act as one from the underside of the fabric of space-time.  
  • IT BE FROM BITS, THE UNIVERSE, THAT IS, IT’S ALL ABOUT THE BITS.
    • DNA is a codebook that issues instructions.  DNA is the governing force that issues instructions to specific proteins at specific times, in specific amounts.
    • The gene blueprint regulates gene activity.  DNA issues instruction three at a time. DNA is an information structure.    It maintains gene production and regulation to deliver the correct gene functions.  Genes are networked in a complex sequenced network.  The gene network self schedules and delivers the required results.
    • Information is physical and it represents the ultimate nature of reality. These surprisingly simple assertions have many deep consequences. Information theory is the wellspring of our contemporary digital world.  The universe is an information network. Life is an informational structure.  Quantum gravity interacts with the universe’s knowledge base.  This knowledge base stores the human consciousness bits.  Growing and storing the knowledge bytes from the known thought reposer’s production is the reason that this current universe exists.  The universe’s information structure built the universe.  The information structure then operates this universe.  When the universe matures, the consciousness bytes that had been generated by the known thought reposers are saved.  They will be used again, in the next universe.
