Where was Jesus between 12 and 30 years of age?

[Anti-Flag]

Lets face it right, Jesus was a builder.

Of course he was he repeatedly disappeared off the face of the earth leaving no forwarding address or contact details....

*************
how can one determine where Jesus was between the ages of 12 to 30 years before starting his ministry?

He was attending Hogwarts academy.

 

[Medicine*Woman]

People like Yorda and Medicine Woman and others find vague similarities between two clearly different things. There are many similarities between Horus and Jesus, but the differences greatly outweigh the similarities.

*************
M*W: "Vague similarities?" Don't make me laugh!

You can also find many similarities between Hitler and Horus, I guess Hitler was a myth copied from Horus...right?

*************
M*W: Is this your silly attempt to send out a smoke screen? If Hitler was a myth copied from the myth of Horus, 6 million plus innocents wouldn't have had to die except in the myth. Unfortunately, for 6 million plus martyrs and their families, Hitler wasn't a myth.

Go read the actual Egyptian scriptures about Horus and you'll find almost nothing similar about the stories...for instance there is one story about how Horus got bitten by a scorpion and died but was then restored to life by Isis

*************
M*W: That old 'scorpion myth,' the 'back-biter,' rears its ugly head again. Judas Iscariot was also known as the Sign of Scorpio that appeared to brush up against the sun as if Judas were kissing Jesus.

Its no surprise that scholars do not see much that would indicate that Jesus was a myth copied from Horus...they see it as simple vague similarities....

*************
M*W: Oh, those 'vague similarities.' Let's address them, shall we? BTW, please name these scholars you refer to along with their peer-reviewed literature.

"This break is thus reflected in the story of Moses, where the Hebrews are portrayed as having a difficult time turning from their ancient worship of the Egyptian god Horus as the golden calf, son of the Egyptian mother goddess, Hathor, who was represented as a cow.

~ Acharya S., The Christ Conspiracy: The Greatest Story Ever Sold.

To further report on the similarities between Jesus (sun god) and Horus (sun god) the following suffices:

"Egypt revered Mother Hathor as the heavenly cow whose udder produced the Milky Way, whose body was the firmament, and who daily gave birth to the sun, Horus-Ra, her Golden Calf, the same deity worshipped by Aaron and the Israelites: "These be they gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt (Exodus 32:4)."

~ Walker, Barbara, The Woman's Encyclopedia of Myths and Secrets.

"Even greater antiquity can be attributed to the well-woven Horus myth of Egypt which also is practically identical to the christian version but which preceded it by thousands of years."

"The cult of Osiris, Isis and Horus was widespread in the ancient world, including in Rome. In the Egyptian myth, Horus and his once-and-future father, Osiris, are frequently interchangeable, as in "I and my Father are one."

"Like that of Jesus, Osiris's resurrection served to provide hope to all that they may do likewise and become eternal."

"Osiris's "son" or renewed incarnation, Horus, shares the following in common with Jesus:"

Here are more "vague similarities" between Jesus and Horus (both sun gods):

"Horus was born of the virgin Isis-Meri on December 25th in a cave/manger with his birth being announced by a star in the East and attended by three wise men."

"Horus's earthly father was named "Seb" (another name for "Joseph.)"

"Horus was of royal descent."

"Horus was baptized in the river Eridanus or Iarutana (Jordan) by "Anup the Baptizer" ("John the Baptist"), who was decapitated."

Horus had 12 disciples, two of whom were his "witnesses" and were named "Anup" and "Aan" (the two "Johns")."

"Horus performed miracles, exorcised demons and raised El-Azarus (El-Osiris-god, his father, Osiris) from the dead."

"Horus walked on water."

"Horus's personal epithet was "Iusa," the "ever-becming son" of "Ptah," the "Father."

"Horus was called "Holy Child."

"Horus delivered a "Sermon on the Mount" and his followers recounted the "Sayings of Iusa."

"Horus was transfigured on the Mount."

"Horus was called "the KRST," or "Anointed One."

"Like Jesus, Horus was supposed to reign one thousand years."

So much for those "vague similarities."

"Horus is not only the sun but also the North Pole star, and his twin brother-cum-adversary, Set, represents not only darkness but also the South Pole star."

"The story of Jesus is virtually identical in numerous important aspects to that of Horus, a solar myth."

~ Acharya S., The Christ Conspiracy: The Greatest Story Ever Sold.

"Horus in Egypt had been a fish from time immemorial, and when the equinox entered the sign of Pisces, Horus was portrayed as Ichthys with the fish sign of over his head."

"The Messiah who manifested in this sign was foreordained to come as Ichthys the fisherman, or, doctrinally, the fisher of men."

~ Massey, Gerald, The Historical Jesus and the Mythical Christ.

So, now we come to the scorpion, the "back-biter."

"Judas is not a historical character but represents Scorpio, "the back-biter," the time of year when the sun's rays are weakening and the sun appears to be dying. Judas also serves as the last hour of the day, since the 12 disciples also symbolized the 12 hours of daylight."

~ Walker, Barbara, The Woman's Encyclopedia of Myths and Secrets.

"We have already seen that John the Baptist or Baptizer is a remake of Horus's Baptizer, Anup, both of whom lost their heads, among other similarities."

~ Acharya S., The Christ Conspiracy: The Greatest Story Ever Sold.

"The three wise men or kings are the three stars in Orion's belt "whose rising announced the coming of Sothis, the Star of Horus/Osirus: that is, Sirius, the brightest star in the sky, whose coming heralded the annual flood of the Nile."

~ Walker, Barbara, The Woman's Dictionary of Symbols and Sacred Objects.

"Like Jesus, Horus has no history between the ages of 12 and 30, "and the mythos alone will account for the chasm which is wide and deep enough to engulf a supposed history of 18 years."

~ Massey, Gerald, The Historical Jesus and the Mythical Christ.

"Jesus/Horus in the Temple in fact represents the sun of God at midday, 12 noon, its highest point, thus being the "Temple of the Most High." The story of Jesus being baptized and beginning his ministry at age 30 is a rehash of the identical tale of Horus, representing the sun moving into a new constellation at 30 degrees. Jesus is alternatively depicted as beginning his ministry at 28 years, which represents the 28-day cycle of the moon, or the month, as reckoned by the Egyptians."

~ Acharya S., The Christ Conspiracy: The Greatest Story Ever Sold.

"The descent into hell by the savior is a common occurrence within many mythologies, found in the stories of Adonis, Bacchus, Balder, Hercules, Horus, Jesus, Krishna, Mercury, Osiris, Quetzalcoatl and Zoroaster."

"Almost all of the acts of Moses correspond to those of the Sun-gods (Horus/Set)."

~ Doane, T.W., Bible Myths and Their Parallels in Other Religions.

"Satan is an adaptation of the Persian representative of evil "Ahriman," the twin brother of "God," the same as the Egyptian Set, Horus's twin and principal enemy, also known as "SSata," whence comes "Satan." Horus struggles with Set in the exact manner that Jesus battles with Satan, with 40 days in the wilderness, among other similarities, such as the revealing from the mount "all the kingdoms of Earth." This myth represents the triumph of light over dark, or the sun's return to relieve the terror of the night. Horus/Set was the god of the two horizons; hence, Horus was the rising sun, and Set the time of the Sun-SET."

"As the mythical Moses had been utilized to inagurate the new age of Aries, Jesus was created to do likewise with the age of Pisces. Thus, to the Krishna/Christos myth were added fish motifs from the Osiris/Horus myth, as well as numerous other elements of the Egyptian and other religions, such as the December 25th birthdate, which was established in the fourth century to usurp the cult of Mithra."

~ Acharya S., The Christ Conspiracy: The Greatest Story Ever Sold.

"The entire Christian bible, creation legend, descent into and exodus from Egypt, ark and flood allegory, Israelite history, Hebrew prophecy and poetry, Gospels, Epistles and Revelation imagery, all are now proven to have been the transmission of ancient Egypt's scrolls and papyri into the hands of later generations which knew neither their true origin nor their fathomless meaning...".

"From the scrolls of papyri five thousand to ten thousand years old there comes stalking forth to view the whole story of an Egyptian Jesus raising from the dead an Egyptian Lazarus at an Egyptian Bethany, with two Egyptian Maries present...".

"Egypt knelt at the shrine of the Madonna and Child, Isis and Horus, for long centuries before a historical Mary lifted a historical Jesus in her arms. Egypt had from remote times adored a Christ who had raised the dead and healed the lame, halt, blind, paralytic, leprous and all afflicted, who had restored speech to the dumb, exorcised demons from the possessed, dispersed his enemies with a word or look, wrestled with his Satan adversary, overcame all temptation and performed the works of his heavenly Father to the victorious end. Egypt had long known a Jesus, Iusa, who had been born amid celestial portents of an immaculate parenthood, circumsised, baptised, tempted, glorified on the mount, persecuted, arrested, tried, condemned, crucified, buried, resurrected and elevated to heaven. Egypt had listened to the Sermon on the Mount and the sayings of Iusa for ages."

~ Jackson, John G., Christianity Before Christ.

Well, this just about covers the "vague similarities" between Jesus and Horus. Okay, I know there are a lot more, but my personal library is limited... but then there's the Internet. It always surprises me when christians don't bother looking up this stuff themselves. There's really no excuse for their ignorance.

I hope I've answered some of your questions or at least made you question. This is only one little bit of information on only one of the world's 25 professed dying demigod saviors that preceded your Jesus. Let me know when you're ready to learn about the other 24.
