First, one the many reasons why I first got interested in this subject was when I first connected the dots that perhaps the sun, our solar orb was actually the son of God. Sun and son play a small part in this for me, and so in doing some research I came across the author Acharya S. aka
D.M. Murdock who relates
Horus to Christ in the book she authored called “Christ in Egypt”. Could this sun of ours actually be once worshipped as the son of God? And the answer I have come across was and is definitely “yes”.
Why is this important to note? Well, first off if people used to worship the sun as the son of God, who brings light and life into the world, which makes sense, right? Well then looking back over known history, many peoples worshipped the sun as their God or son of God. In the story of Horus and
Osiris, Osiris being God, dies and is reborn as the son of God or Horus. As noted in the book I am reading now call “Christ in Egypt”. Horus is reborn everyday as the “little sun”. He also is born therefore on December 25th as well. Rightly so, because during the
winter solstice which is around this time, the sun makes a turn upwards towards the sky after stopping for 3 days during its track going downward in the sky. When the sun starts to rise up once again, on December 25th, it is said to be reborn again. That’s one note to consider. The other is that Horus was born everyday as “the little sun”. After being defeated by his brother Set which is when the sun sets and darkness prevails over the land, the sun of God (Osiris) is reborn into Horus.
Knowing these facts lead people to believe, such as myself and Acharya S. that Horus, coming from the Egyptian culture/religion, way before Christianity took hold – it would be wise to state that If Jesus was indeed born on Dec 25th too, then perhaps one should look at these two myths and see if there is any correlation between the two. And in fact there is quite a bit of similarities between the two. Jesus may not have been born on December 25th as everyone in our culture seems to think. He was born sometimes at different times of the year for different reasons. I don’t have all those facts in front of my at this time, but I know this to be true. If so, then Horus and Jesus seem to be born at the same interval in time. Almost everyday, but certainly during the winter solstice, which the Egyptians valued tremendously because they had set up temples facing the eastern sky when the sun rises and during the winter solstice, sun would shine upon the face of these temples in a way that shows us that they put a large significance on this time of year. The winter solstice then becomes a stepping stone marking the beginning of the cycle of life, where you are reborn and the sun rises in the east, worshippers worship on Sunday, and churches in our time, get built facing this eastern sky too, to have their churches capturing the rising sun, as it was once worshipped long ago. A pagan religious rite.
There are many skeptics out there who are trying to debunk Acharya’s work but if they only look at her proofs of hieroglyphics carved in Egyptian stone going way back before Christianity existed, you will find that the Egyptians worshipped the sun during the winter solstice, said to have been reborn during this time and in fact in their religion, Horus was born everyday as “the little sun”.
If anyone has proof otherwise, then let me hear it. I am reading one source with many references to other people’s research, yes, however unlike a sanitized encyclopedia which has material in it to comfort the general public and makes no outlandish claims, such as stating that Jesus is a myth and go into details why this may be true. I feel this book reveals much more than the author intends it to be read. I think that the
Bible has been written by unknown sources, potential ones yes, but then where is the proof other than what was written in the bible, any scientific historical facts ever proven from the bible, maybe some, yes more if you look at Egypt’s written history you can find the proofs necessary to confirm some of the writings of the bible. What ever happened to those books that were not included in the bible? Doesn’t that concern anyone who wants to know more about how and why the bible came into existence?
I once was a
born again Christian, still am sorta, but I also am opening my mind up once again, like I did as a child liking many religions and now studying the Egyptian culture and where Christianity mainly cam from. If this is true, then is Jesus a myth based on history that occurred in Egypt long before? You decide. But first read the bible, then read this book, “Christ in Egypt”. I have read both, not entirely, but enough to make some comparisons to them both. I suggest you do your homework, if this intrigues you and let me know what you find.
