My 600th Post - On The Inevitability Of Truth's Triumph

Just wanted to give an update about the sales of the book. The book started today in the 100,000+ range at Amazon and thanks to a sudden spike in interest at this blog we are now sitting at 73,430 place. I sincerely want to thank all the haters and the lovers, indeed all those who have been helping encourage interest in my theory.

The traditional Jewish understanding of Pharaoh was that he was only an instrument being used by God to facilitate the inevitably of the Exodus. There is reason to believe that the Alexandrian tradition thought the same thing about Pilate (who is still canonized as a saint among the Ethiopians). The point in either case is embodied in the writings of the Apostle -

"we cannot do anything against the truth, but only for the truth" [2 Cor 13:8]

Again I want to make clear - the truth will come out in spite of the efforts of men like you and me.

I have presented a theory which explains Christianity through the Alexandrian emphasis on St. Mark as the first enthroned 'earthly Christ' representative. According to that tradition a succession of Popes (Papas) sat in his place and received the Christ-soul of the heavenly Father through communion with St. Mark. Not only were the Father on the throne of St. Mark identified as an 'earthly Christ' by the Alexandrian Church but countless features of this office demonstrate his messianic status including his identification as a 'shoot of Jesse' in the Coptic ordination ritual.

There is nothing radically controversial about this among the 13,000,000 million Copts in the world today and their ancestors who likely now number in the billions in the world to come.

I am just one of the first outsiders who actually THOUGHT about these traditions and put them into a Jewish messianic context. Remember the Copts INHERITED a claim which demonized Origen and the 'Origenists' Fathers who came after him that they 'went over to Judaism.' One consistent example of Origen's 'Jewish error' was his belief that Jesus was the ram in the Akedah narrative (see the Homilies on Ezekiel among other texts). Another was his passing forward the Jewish interpretation of Marcus Agrippa as the messiah of Daniel (he got this information from a 'Jewish historical text' probably Justus of Tiberius Chronicle).

In any event, the truth will eventually be demonstrated. I might be wrong, I might be right. But if I am wrong then Origen is wrong too. I'd rather be on the side of this great Church Father, than against him. He is truly one of the greats ...
