The Essene New
Testament contains words Yeshua spoke that are not in the Canonical Gospels.
In The Essene New Testament, Yeshua described the corruption of his teachings
by people who would rule in his name:
But the time
cometh when darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the
people, and the enemies of truth and righteousness shall rule in my
name, and set up a kingdom of this world and oppress the peoples. . . .
putting for my doctrines the opinions of men, and teaching in my name
that which I have not taught and darkening much that I have taught
by their traditions.
But he also taught
that there would come a time when the Truth of his teachings would be
revealed and would have the influence it should have had:
But be of
good cheer, for the time will also come when the truth they have hidden
shall be manifested and the light shall shine, and the darkness shall
pass away and the true kingdom shall be established which shall be
in the world but not of it, and the word of righteousness and love
shall go forth from the Center.
In another section
of the same ancient manuscript, Yeshua prophesied the corruption and
rediscovery of his teachings again:
There shall arise
after you, men of perverse minds who shall through ignorance or through
craft, suppress many things which I have spoken unto you, and lay
to me things which I never taught. . . . Woe is the time when the spirit
of the world entereth into the Church, and my doctrines and precepts
are made void through the corruptions of men and women. . . . But the
time cometh when the things which they have hidden shall be revealed
and made known, and the truth shall make free those which were bound
And in still another
statement, he prophecied the corruption and rediscovery again:
They shall make
alliance with the kings and rulers of the world and seek earthly power,
and riches, and domination, and put to death by fire and sword those
who seek the truth, and therefore are truly my disciples. And in their
days, I, Jesus, shall be crucified afresh and put to open shame, for
they will profess to do these things in my name. As I shall be nailed
to the cross, so also shall my Church in those days, for she is my
Bride and one with me. But the day shall come when this darkness shall
pass away, and the true light shall shine. . . . And my Church shall
be filled with Light and give Light unto all nations of the earth.
Can the occurrences
in the Christian Church over the past 2,000 years and the current awakening
we are seeing as Yeshua's true teachings are coming to light be any more
clearly the fulfillment of these prophecies?
